Garden Refresh & Hydroponic Overhaul | Making Room for Fall Brassicas

Welcome back to the Laidback Homestead! In today’s Garden Refresh, We're giving the garden a full fall cleanup after a light frost—clearing out damaged plants, collecting tons of homegrown seeds, and opening up space to replant all my brassicas. I’m harvesting peppers, saving seeds from zinnias and cosmos, We’re also refreshing my hydroponic Dutch bucket and DWC systems, reworking my self-watering buckets, and prepping beds for broccoli, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts, and more. If you love gardening tips, seed saving, fall garden cleanup, hydroponics, or homesteading inspiration, this cozy two-day garden reset is for you.
