"With a garden this large, it's important to check it every day and keep up with its care,"
"My gardeners and I have been spending a lot of time in this large half-acre space. We always check on what's doing well and remove what is not and then replant when needed."
"All the vegetables look fantastic,"
Martha Stewart grows home-grown produce on her 153-acre Katonah, New York farmhouse and manages a large half-acre vegetable space with hands-on care. The gardening team inspects plants daily, removes underperforming crops, and replants as needed to concentrate water, nutrients, and attention on promising plants. Removing weak or sickly specimens prevents resource waste and potential disease spread, improving overall productivity and plant health. Consistent maintenance and timely replacement yield robust vegetables, including well-supported tomatoes, tender eggplants, and abundant sweet and hot peppers, enhancing long-term garden success.
