I'm from Australia and I've just joined the retired brigade, and am looking for ways to grow vegies in a very small area as we're on a very small house block which is mostly paved. I just finished watching all 3 of Hollis' potato videos as I've never grown food before ever. We shouldn't have to worry about too much rain here in Australia, as we're in drought more often than not. It's amazing that these videos were made nearly 3 years ago, and replies and comments are still coming. Looks like you have a whole new audience now Hollis. The covid-19 is making everyone rethink their values, and I think stepping back and creating a lot of our own food has got to be so satisfying rather than going up and down a supermarket aisle and just bagging whatever, without a clue as to where its come from. I'll be a regular view from now on Hollis. Keep up the good work. You can tell that you absolutely love what you're doing. Cheers from Australia.

Hang in there... in the meantime, get your hands dirty in the garden. 🌱 I walk around happy and grateful working on mine. You can order a bunch of things online. I bought my food grade buckets at Walmart for $3 each. I buy what I can on sale, improvise with parts here and there. Nothing better for the immune system than being out in the fresh air and sun working on a garden... feeds the body and soul.

Swap out your peet for coco. You will get better drainage. We average 4 lbs per 5 gal bucket. We use pretty much the same mix. Just that peet holds on to water to long. After we switched to coco we doubled our average yield.

Hollis & Nancy - I really enjoy your videos. I especially appreciate that you don't cherry pick "the best of" outcomes. My university degree was in an experimental science. If I didn't learn anything else than this from my college experience it was we learn more from our "failed" experiments than we do from the successes. You showed in this video series just how much potatoes depend on consistent watering and how quickly soggy soil can ruin the crop. Thank you!

This is an awesome method! Just keep in mind this is about an 85-110 day process, the amount of edible calories that come out of the bucket minus the calories it takes you to grow them, is not a huge net, and of course you will need regular calories in that 3-4month period anyways. If you really need calories there may be something faster to grow with that same, space, raw materials, and effort.

Gardening and Baking lets you see God. I once got all choked up at God's Perfection when I looked into Vermiculture!!! Wow!! The little worm helps us THRIVE, a worm is perfect and necessary... you just kind of see it all in nature.

Go buy some buckets get all the supplies and bring the kids over and put each kid's name on a bucket and show him how to plant potatoes. You can even bring the parents in on this. No matter what happens at the end of the season all the taters get split up evenly. Because one bucket can yield none even though everything was done correctly.

Back then I only grew a single bucket per variety and had almost no potatoes that year! Now, I plant in 25 gallon pots and have no less than 3 per variety I grow. I grow 4 varieties each year, Kennebec white, Pontiac Red, a Large Russet and some sort of specialty potato I experiment with like an over priced exotic fingerling...Your videos have been a tremendous help and I appreciate the time you've taken to make them and share!

Soooo get them out of the rain! If you have them growing in a bucket it stands to reason that if you are getting too much rain to just bring them into the garage or under a covered patio for the duration of your downpours. If you are getting multiple days, all day, rains pull a clear plastic tarp over them in a tent so they still get sun if the sun comes out between storms and ventilation through the tent but without the water pouring in the bucket itself. Since you have them on that growing rack against the fence, staple one edge of the plastic on the fence and make a lean-to tent open on each end for ventilation. 🤷‍♀️

I'm sure he needs your advice. Maybe a few buckets of potatoes just aren't that important to him to worry about.

You might have to water them a little bit more. As often but saturating the soil more than he did. I'm guessing.

You need to add clean coarse sand into your dirt mix, and put a layer of gravel in the very bottom of the bucket. Cover the holes with some broken plant pot first though. That way the drainage will be better. If you can't see water coming out the bottom of the pot when you water, then there is too much loam in the dirt.

Found your channel this morning and appreciate your video sharing of growing potatoes in buckets. As some others have commented and my DH has always said...buying them in stores is cheaper. That's true but from experience with other veggies, home grown just tastes soon much better and is rewarding. Going to start some buckets this year and share the growing info with sons family so his young daughters have an exciting intro to gardening and producing their own food. Thanks so much!! And totally love your diagrams!!!

I bet a lot of people have been inspired watching your videos though! The more we can grow ourselves, the better. We know where our food is coming from. And, speaking for myself, going out to the garden is visiting an old friend for me! Cheap, cheap therapy! haha!

2 seed potatoes in a 5 gallon bucket. Average yield of 6 potatoes. 3 to 1 return on investment. Good enough to feed mother in law. Well worth 4 months time, 16 gallons of water, 2 cubic feet of soil, and 1 square foot of land.
