Wow! You could have just as easily called this 10 Tips to be a successful ADHD Gardener. Nearly EVERYTHING you mention (multiple tools at multiple points of use, putting things in your path to remind you to do them, etc) are ALL ADHD strategies. THank you, from this ADHD (not lazy, cuz that's what we get labelled incorrectly) gardener :) THanks for this video!!

[@AnneofAllTrades]

Haha we have a funny way of finding each other ;) I hate the word lazy for the same reason, but I also try to contend with algorithms so the people these systems could hopefully help actually get a chance to see the video.

[@whiplash_cat]

@@AnneofAllTrades algorithms indeed. I figured it was a way to draw in. Everything about your suggestions and demeanor was kind and compassionate. So glad I stumbled on your channel.🧠🌿🎍❤️

[@missyjocadieux3790]

Yes yes yes! This woman is NOT lazy, she’ probably ADHD which is why her video was so perfect for us ADHD folks! Thanks for pointing that out 🥰

[@beccam9854]

Oh my God I was like.... There's no way this lady doesn't have adhd cuz this sounds like all the hacks I do to get around my adhd. Also I highly recommend painting your tools really bright colors. Like neon pink. Also since my garden is in the front yard I keep a bunch of bins by the front door on a sofa table shelf that have all smallmy gardening supplies

[@whiplash_cat]

@@beccam9854 I forgot about the bright colors! I need to do this to my tools 😆

[@cynthiaskaggs6645]

I always had problems with insects eating my tomatoes but I’m too lazy to treat them with anything to get rid of the bugs. This year I got smart and decided to move the tomatoes to the area of the garden where all the toads hang out… not a single bug on them this year. It’s a simple matter of moving the plants and The toads and I both enjoy good food.

[@hyacinthABC]

I plant basil around them which grows up tall in my zone - have had 1green tomato hornworm in 2 years. Also - a cheap infrared flashlight shows them up as neon purple after dark so you can just pick 'em off!

[@IjeomaThePlantMama]

ADHD gardeners *UNITE*!!! I was already inadvertently following the first tip of leaving my tools in places where I need it. And it's definitely worked wonders. The stirring stick is right next to the compost bin, mini shovel and rake next to the worm bin (with a little bucket to collect castings), pruners next to both my strawberries and tomatoes so I can harvest right then and there, etc. Seriously, just leaving tools lying about has made gardening super enjoyable and less like a chore. I look forward to watching this 5 more times to pick up the tips I missed due to getting distracted and not paying attention 🤣🤣

[@AnneofAllTrades]

My favorite is when I accidentally recreate scenes from 3 stooges with rakes I forgot were there 😂😂😂

[@banjerma]

@IjeomaThePlantMama...We are a very misunderstood bunch. These are my people. I resemble these remarks. 😊

[@quintessenceSL]

As if my neighbors didn't think I was odd already. "They're vacuuming the the plants."

[@AnneofAllTrades]

hahahaha my 75 year old neighbor came out to take pictures of me vacuuming my plants the other day. He thought it was soooo funny

[@OremusFarm]

Anne, less than a minute into this video and you just helped my marriage! You explained something so well, so simply, that my husband hasn't been able to put into words. Leaving tools around has always been an issue for me, I'm a very tidy and frugal person, but he is also a "forgetful person" too and may actually need this! I hadn't thought of it that way before! Thank you! ❤️

[@AnneofAllTrades]

Something that changed my whole life as realizing that “if I can’t see it, it doesn’t exist.” It’s why I make piles and put them in my way, instead of putting things away. Instead of trying to change that about myself (because I wouldn’t be successful, trust me, I’ve tried), I’ve learned to lean into it and created systems that help me stay on top of the things I need to do from day to day. If it’s the same way for your husband, maybe you could work together to come up with ways to mitigate that forgetfulness. For what it’s worth, I use whiteboards in every space I work in. I carry notecards in my pocket to write things on I need to remember or want to do so I can review them at the end of the day and come up with a plan for tomorrow before I go to bed. ❤️❤️

[@OremusFarm]

@@AnneofAllTrades I love it! Great advice! This could be a whole video, especially when you are working with someone and both of you have different needs and ways of doing things. Thank you for all you do Anne! You make a beautiful difference in the world! ❤️

[@ehoops31]

I've started using baskets for my piles. It helps my tidy partner feel like the house is not in disarray while I can still see the contents and come back to them.

Vacuuming the pests off the plants is genius!!!! Definitely going to adopt this!!!!!😁

[@oliviawilliams595]

[@anniegaddis5240]

Great post. I have a mail box posted at the other end of my property. All sorts of hand tools and a pair of gloves in there have saved me the long walk back to the barn sooo many times. LOL, am thinking about adding a roll of toilet paper!

[@minkademko2335]

Mail box in the garden is so handy ♥️. I've got one.

[@hishers4535]

I also have a mailbox! It's at the main entrance to the garden. Grab them as I come in, drop them off as I leave.

[@lambforjesus2282]

Put your tools in a plastic container so they don’t weather. Even a garbage can will do. It’s a great idea to have them close, but you don’t want them ruined. You might not always have access to readily buy them. 👍

[@thomasechols8834]

10 years, and look how far you've come.....congratulations.

[@Gkrissy]

I’m glad someone did a video like this. I am a lazy gardener this summer because this heat wave is too much. I am trellising as I go but I keep up with watering.

[@spider46531]

THANK YOU!!! I stand and look at my terrible "garden" and think it is just too much. Now I know I can actually do it with a little time

[@anonperson3972]

My left ear loved your tips

[@shinybugg9156]

I know this is an old post, so you might not see this, but a little cooking spray in the tools you're leaving out might help keep the rust at bay!

[@kristinneathery3927]

I'm definitely a lazy gardener. I do have suggestion to up your compost laziness. I pick a corner of the garden to be my compost corner. I start with a hole and than fill it with kitchen scraps and lawn debris threw out the season. It is a slow process since I don't bother turning it very often. In the fall I spread it out and pick another spot. I keep a bucket next to the front door to put any kitchen scraps that dont go to the chickens. My husband refers to it as the "bucket of evil" because I don't dump it as often as I should. It is great at jumpstarting a cold compost pile.

[@AnneofAllTrades]

That’s a great tip! Another way to make that even easier is to actually dig a trench along your garden beds to do just that. Then the stuff breaks down and is already right where it needs to go. The reason I’m not doing that here is because of the sheer volume of compost I’m trying to make. The soil isn’t great here, and I’m working, slowly but surely, to improve not just the garden, but the pasture and orchard as well. Currently I’ve got a pile I manage with my tractor that’s about 20’x100’x6’ tall. When I stir it it steams up the whole valley 😂

[@GardenKatt]

Going to start that

[@minkademko2335]

I find in-ground composting to be easiest, too. Mom would just dig a little hole, dump in the scraps and throw some dirt on top. Easy peasy for us lazy gardeners.

[@terrycarkner1698]

We keep bucket in kitchen for scraps. And we build stationery compost piles, no turning. I put where I want to kill grass to create more planting space!

[@squange20]

What an inspiration you are Anne to not only the beginner gardener, but to people like me who make mistakes and fail. Why stress when we can learn as we go along. I’m glad I found this video and will be watching the others.

[@kremershomesteadmn]

I absolutely can relate to you and this video brought a smile to my face. I am 3 years removed from the corporate world. Been learning how to drive tractors, bale hay, garden, grow and process chickens, and now homeschool my children. I love to learn but sometimes am lazy towards the garden. I always felt bad about that but you just helped me with this video. God bless

[@mksdiva]

This is what I needed as a ADHD mom of 4. The out of sight out of mind thing seemed to be my biggest issue. If I don't see it I forget it exists. Thank you XD

[@hermiea6854]

Hahahaha, you are describing exactly how I garden. Right at your opening line, I said, "oh that's what I do". I am also a real lazy gardener. Fortunately for me, we had a big farm when I was growing up and I enjoyed spending my whole day in the farm and watching my father how he took care of his plants and animals. I learned a lot of tricks that you are mentioning here from my father.

[@piratetaylor29]

One way I tie up my plants to the trellis is using bungee cords. Packets of them from the Dollar Tree. They often have multiple sizes and it's a lazy gardeners best friend. 👍🇺🇸

[@AnneofAllTrades]

Smart!!

[@minkademko2335]

I was thinking the same thing when I saw Anne tying. Cattle panel fence is there, so I could just keep some hanging at the ready. LAZY!

[@jamesirwin19]

*sigh* My depression got the better of me this year. I've been unable to summon up the energy to do much of anything and my garden shows it. I finally managed to have a good day yesterday and got out to weed. Most of the garden is dead or dying and weeds are waist high.

[@ErraticPerfectionist]

*HUGS* I've been there. I started with clearing a small patch and planting seeds to enjoy the growth of while I tackled other parts of the garden.

[@AnneofAllTrades]

I hear you big time there, that’s what my garden was like the second half of 2020 ❤️❤️, and I think ErraticPerfectionist has some stellar advice there, reclaiming a small patch as a start May just be the ticket to easing back in and having less to add to the overwhelm.

[@missloretta]

You know I read that there's a natural antidepressant in soil! Maybe you can get excited about a fall garden. You could probably start some seedlings indoors right now.

[@mkjohnson7826]

Is it depression or lack of nutrition (vitamins:minerals:etc) and electrolytes? Also, being dehydrated can make you feel tired and depressed. Good luck…I hope you feel better. And look up “grounding”….making contact with the earth with bare feet.

[@VeryMiley]

100% spot on.! These practices reduce the labor to maintain the garden, and increase your bandwidth to make observations re plant health and pests while also increasing the enjoyment. "Efficient smart gardening" aka "lazy gardening" as practiced by the best! Other ones I've done, which is more on the garden layout/infrastructure layout aspect: 1) multiple entrances to a gated garden (both the standard 4' width for a person or small garden wagon and the larger 6' or 8' width to fit a tractor or other machinery), and 2) multiple spigot/water access points, if possible. In areas where there is limited water/drought, this may not be feasible. Frost free spigots if you can in areas this makes sense.). Wrangling long hoses or carrying buckets of water and watering cans leads to overuse of limbs and joints (repetitive strain injuries) and also wasted energy that could be better spent elsewhere. Not everyone can afford/build these ideas in. But if you can, they are worth considering.

[@AnneofAllTrades]

Great additions!!

Oh OH!! I love the vacuum idea! I have all but given up on ever getting a brassica harvest here!

[@apothekarya]

Suuuuper helpful for an ADHDer like myself! This is not being lazy, but ingenious! Thanks!

[@WoodlandT]

Wood mulch is one of the best things to put in the garden. It does such an amazing job at protecting and waking up the soil. Put it on the ground, let it breakdown & you’ll have dramatically better soil that just needs a little compost or organic fertilizer at time of planting. I live on a river & my soil is 90% sand. Wood chips are the perfect solution for me

[@Nevermore1816]

My compost pile is about 100yards away from my garden. I'll be moving it tomorrow!

[@courtive]

Love this.. especially the part where you vacuumed the bugs off. I'm definitely a "lazy" gardener too. But I think lazy is smart too! We recently got ducks so that they could help out with the slug in our pnw garden. The bonus has been that emptying the pond water has been really boosting the nutrients all over the garden (and reminding me to water a bit). My chickens are also excellent at weeding and composting ;) I let them do all the work to turn our compost. Caring for animals is some work, but it's a fairly rewarding trade off.

[@emtpwanabe]

I leave some of the weeds. I’ve noticed that pests flock to them as opposed to my desired plants. I’ve noticed it with red root amaranth. It has a long tap root similar to dandelions. And, like dandelions, they have edible parts.

[@barryturner8994]

[@lynxg4641]

Absolutely BRILLIANT! Happy to see the "old" Anne is back in force, what a great video. Your garden sure doesn't look like it's been not watered much and definitely looks very healthy. Great tips with the tools and equipment, if you can't easily find stuff to do what you want, you ultimately get frustrated and move on. Wish there was some technique to teach the patience required to start and build such a garden for us now getting started. Have to take that tip and get something ontop of the soil in my small garden I'm now starting with our daytime 31C+ days we're getting.

[@janetbransdon3742]

I pull out any UNWANTED weeds( I keep dandelions, plantain etc) in a small section of my garden everday and feed these to my chickens. I then cut the grass in that area and use as mulch or dry to use for bedding for my chickens nesting boxes.

[@kegsyk8499]

yeah the chop n drop is good for the soil in other ways too. it sounds silly but the earth is smart enough to grow what it needs where it needs it. so if its growing there it should die there. keeps the soil healthy.

[@AnneofAllTrades]

Hear hear

So true Anne! I cut down my brassica a week ago. I forked the soil (close as I can get currently to broad forking). The soil even with compost layer was Significantly drier than my beds with grass clippings and plants providing shade. Soil needs coverage.

I’m also a lazy gardener and my Master Gardener parents don’t get it, but things grow and grow for me! We moved from western Washington to north central Alabama 1.5 years ago and the hard clay soil has definitely been interesting. I want to check out those seedless dandelions that you showed!

[@knarlyknuckles6199]

A tip I came across involves using old carpet for your pathways. Flip it upside down and cover with mulch. No weeds, groundhogs can't dig through it, water drains easily, and highly durable. I used a 12x12 piece for my kids swing set, covered it with rubber mulch, and it is still going strong after 16yrs. They couldn't even wear out a path where the swings are. We also use 2x12 carpet allong the fence lines with regular much. No weeds to weed wack ever and very comfortable to walk on!

[@AnneofAllTrades]

The only problem with carpet is that there is formaldehyde in the glue. An old timer had blanketed our whole last farm in carpets and the cleanup and soil rebuilding process was hugely time and labor intensive.

[@windsonghillranch4306]

Many carpets are treated with extremely toxic "forever chemicals" (aka Teflon) that are not good for the planet.

[@lori-yn4yi]

It's good to see you with no arrm restrain

[@user-nk8xg4rl2l]

Wow I love this video! As "lazy" (ADHD :P) gardener myself I really appreciate these tips, and am doing several already. My biggest issue I think is replanting, when a crop does reach it's end I'm not so good at having seedlings ready to go to fill the space, so it often sits with a bit of mulch until the weeds move in or I do a big round of replanting like I've finally gotten to now (at the height of summer, my poor seedlings!) Also was that a passionflower growing next to your dahlias? Mine has been going crazy here in VA, it's actually a native variety called a Maypop. It grows wild around here too but none I've seen have as many flowers or fruit as mine! Hoping you a bountiful harvest too!

[@RS8726]

These are genius tips. I'm definitely going to improve our gardening quality of life by implementing some!

[@minkademko2335]

Still, the wood chips would help conserve moisture in the ground. I use hay instead, bought a big bale from a local cattle ranch neighbor on the cheap. I asked him if he had an old bale , and he brought it to me free, since we all help each other out around our tiny community. Anyways, it's been around 100 for the past month or two, so when the hay mulch starts to thin, I just throw on some more. My plants are doing ok, lazy as I am 👍

Really like the vacuum idea, since I do not use chemicals or pesticides, and sometimes the pests seem to know it.

[@TheTinkerersWife]

A note on wood chips. They are not hardly an issue at all when used on top of the soil. Even with nothing added to them. The real trouble is when those chips are mixed into the soil, where nitrogen rich rain and oxygen arent as available in concert with microbes so those aren't working on them as quickly chip paths more mimic fallen branches and trees in the forest creating wonderful fluffy rich soil pretty quickly whike ading in kerp8ng soils in the garden more moist.
