Me too🌞🌿

[@BuildASoil]

Dude this is going to be so much fun!

[@uns33n]

@@BuildASoil i just bought a press and freeze dryer after my first year of growing. Buildasoil since day 1. Super excited.

Wife’s arms on point in the thumbnail! 🏋🏻‍♀️👑 Love the content

[@jakewood4329]

I'm definitely learning that organic an natural way an top dress work the best because Mother Nature that's how it happens naturally!

[@MyDroneFootage-tl9lq]

I am glad you changed your perspective on blumat. I just bought a 4x4 bed and blumat watering system 🙂 Starting on season one and going from there. Thanks for what you do @ buildasoil

[@kurgan322]

Your reply at 18:45 are words to live by. Thank you for sharing.

[@greenzgoddess]

NICE GREENHOUSE GWEN!!!!! It looks like a dream!!!!!

[@GreenLeavesGrower]

Just flowered organically in 1.7 gallons .... my last run before this was 5 gallons organic , & it turned out alright . The 1.7 gals have kicked my ass & had a LOT more problems . (Deficiencies , fungus gnats , over/underwatering , etc ) Gonna come down in a few days , results are still good as far as quality and yield but its not worth the headaches and problems ! Bigger is always better when it comes to the amount of soil you use

[@tylerf6364]

EXACTLY I had the same exact experience. Leave these small pots for synthetic growers

[@GreenLeavesGrower]

@@tylerf6364 100% ! I was able to grow in 1.7gal with synthetic nutes & it wasn’t much if a problem at all . Organic isn’t just a different game it is a whole different sport .. gotta love it tho . Happy growing !

[@Cannabails]

Thank you

[@AmberSheldon-u5v]

Love seeing the farm!! Beautiful 😍

[@jameslique7008]

Get so excited when I get a notification of a new buildasoil video. Cant wait to see what the contest consists of.

[@fusiongaming5749]

You’re my favorite person I’ve met on KZbin man you’re very down to earth 🌍

[@618NoRRiS024]

Been scrolling thanks for uploading!!!

[@lincolnhavens5313]

That is an amazing greenhouse garden! Wow

[@krustysurfer]

Absolutely amazing job on the greenhouse garden 🫶

[@danielromanelli6094]

What im really interested in is seeing your philosophical and strategic approach to how you'd deal with the smaller pot size; even just hearing you mention liquid feeds is a big unlock that i wasn't aware of as an option in organics, so it would just be cool to be able to follow your lead through the whole process and have a reliable reference, as well as a visual indicator for all the things your talking about re: plant size etc. but i can also appreciate a big time suck like what you described, so ill be watching no matter what the next season is. love all of this man. thank you.

[@zackaryzerr4735]

It's really cool to see the farm. I've been a long time vegetable grower and seeing the trellis system is awesome.

[@jasonmanes4686]

I think you should do a 5 gal pot run, like you said most of us start out in 5 gal pots. So why not show it can be done with great success, hard work and dedication = Success

[@danielkieboom2970]

I actually thought about it a while and I agree, but like he says it has to be doable, also for us. I would like to see a 5 gal pot setup with some sort of irrigation system. that way it is realistic in a home setup and also doable for the video.

[@maximeturcotte8016]

Many many thanks for your precious work! You convinced me going the No-till way and I would never turn back. You're the man!

[@zufeltcodi]

Thanks for the new video! I'm new to growing and I've been watching and studying your old videos all afternoon. Great information and easy learning.

[@wildwillie419]

Whoops. I accidentally started with 5 gallons! But your info has been super helpful so I feel prepared!

[@North39]

Please spend more time with your wife in her greenhouse. I want to learn more about being sustainable on my farm in that way. Thanks guys!

[@robertherdman2219]

Wow, what a fantastic way to grow!

[@Ty_stixx]

Just in time!!!

Organic , the way nature intended . Great info as always 👍👊🏻

[@NedDenver]

Thanks for answering my question, Jeremy! I'll be sure to continue following along!

[@timpage5021]

I love how watching my garden get pollinated I take some killer pics with a macro lenses.

[@mopeaceproductions218]

Awesome I suck last year with my garden but I believe I will do better this year taking the teaching you guys have given

[@rodneym7246]

I don't have a question at the moment, just wanted to say I love this..and very much look forward to ea episode. Use a 7 or 10gal..5 is too small..your right..maybe do a side by side of a 5 and a 10 and water and check on the same...demonstrate dominoe effect..if that's even big enough..maybe do that, however, but in a 4x4 so it could be it's own short series of daily life, trying to manage a small pot as opposed to a larger?idk..now I have to rewatch..i missed it writing this book.✌

[@highdesertfarmer505]

Can't believe I missed it ! I've been waiting for this . Very nice 💯🔥🌱🌱🌱✌🏽✌🏽✌🏽

[@davidlynnbrown1]

Great content! So glad you addressed the Take And Bake. I started my first run end of April. I am using the No-Till bundle and my cannabis and veggies are so healthy. I have been growing off and on since 2001. BAS is teaching me to be a better gardener. Thank you so much!

[@phoxpho6922]

Yo Jeremy ... 👍✊🙏great stuff bro !!! Awesome to see you and wifey in garden together. The love shines thru 🌞

[@joshspadaro6736]

love to see the greenhouse. Looks amazing in there!

[@frederickventer4968]

Hi Jeremy excellent show thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and all the great tips at growing organically. You should have a main water line going around on the inside of the 10x10 on a thicker pipe, and have all the small pipes go from the main line to the pots, this way the pipes won't be in the way on the inner side of the tent. It worked great on my last (hydroponic) grow in my 4x4, even though I don't walk around in the tent. The main line met itself again to form a closed loop. I pumped in the nutrients into the tent, but it was difficult to determine the optimal amount of nutrient water to pump in. Since my timer could pump at the least 1 min per day, it was too much in the small hydroponic smart pot containers (6 trees in 3 gallon containers), so I had to stop feeding at certain stages by switching off the pump and timer, since I would notice too much runoff. Yield was very large but automation not entirely successful.

[@karl532]

Looking forward to season 2, particularly the re-amending of the 3x3. Also Looking forward to the Pedro collab, love Pedro's KZbin channel and style of growing. 👍

[@Crazypug-eh7xi]

Hell bro I truly enjoy watching your videos as well as much as I know I'm still learning 😌😎everyday and truly enjoy watching your shows

[@gargoylekingGWO]

U are truly a great teacher really love the channel keep up the good work 👏 👍

[@charleswebster1389]

Awesome series Jeremy, I know you put a lot of time and hard work into it. Much appreciated!!! On the next run I would like to see one section dedicated to showing how you would do a pheno hunting set up on a small scale like you mentioned in a previous segment. Also, at some point a segment on how you would run a pollen collecting set up on a small scale for breeding purposes (along with a basic tutorial on breeding) would be very helpful.

[@kellyhill4410]

This was an AWESOME FAQ.!! Really appreciate the indoor grow. Have learned lots. Would really appreciate seeing more of the Greenhouse grow. I know it's a serious workload to ask. I understand.. .. Am thinking of building a greenhouse and would like to see what is needed.. Thanks again. You're helping an old man with his medicine. 🤜🌟🤛🌾🌾🌾

[@romanreckless8263]

we need WAY MORE OF THESE VIDEOS!!!...I know ur busy... but, having this greenhouse series with veggies! would be amazing too... and , u can even show greenhouse weed also in the series...

[@romanreckless8263]

plz more videos 9f the veggie greenhouse!

[@romanreckless8263]

that way of hanging the cucs, and tomatoes is awesome!

[@robertcarmansr.204]

Jeremy I love your site and I am following you with my own thoughts. I have added a air pump for aquariums with a manifold running air lines. To each earth box in the bottom cavity it's worth a try to your viewers .

[@nscanna2680]

I grow in a no-till in 5 gallon containers. I use lots of different natural nutrient sources, worms, cover crop, and a natural mulch layer consisting of cuttings from the plants. I do a full water every 2nd or 3rd day, but wet the tops every morning. Soil is pretty compacted though, and the only issue I've had.

[@ccan9177]

I would rather see more on the earthbox and maybe 15 and 30 gallon than 5 gallon. I am loving this series and can't wait for the next.

[@davidsands7791]

Like the way your stringing up the vines on pulleys (?) Homesteaders hack- curtain rods and shower rings

[@jppagetoo]

Rules: Fun, simple, repeatable. Gardening is supposed to be fun. Do it in a way that is enjoyable to you. I like how you say "don't make complicated plans you can't carry out to the finish". I made that mistake 20+ years ago. Each year since then my plan has been all about simple ideas that give a great results. Lastly... Don't over grow you ability to handle the harvest. Harvest is a lot of work and has to be done on nature schedule.

[@TwistedTornsTirade]

I feel like family now and when she tells you to do the dishes I bet you do lol

[@dtbone6]

thx for the take&bake info

[@VCAL-mr6er]

Who the hell would thumbs down this ... super valuable content!

[@succulentP]

The 7 people who showed up for Gwen thinking she'd be in the video longer that's who lol. Because you're right, the info in this video was great

[@joedbreeze17]

Do as many of these 10x10 episodes as you can… Hopefully for years and years 🤙🏽

[@erickornack9789]

Thanks for answering my question Jeremy! This information is gold as im about to make up the take n bake with the ingredients here in Canada! Much love.

[@_sunshine_rainbows]

the garden keeps teaching ❤

[@jktriple_g_129]

Heck yeah keep it up

[@RedMusicMagic]

@BuildASoil , thank you so much for all of these informative videos! I’m a big fan. You mentioned in this video that you don’t like Blumats…what I’d it about them that you find problematic? How extensively have you played with them? I’ve been using their “Blusoak” drip tape in 300 gallon pots(my own soil blend including several bags of your 3.0 blend in each), with a timer on the supply lines, and two large blumat carrots in each container. The results are pretty stunning (I’d love to share some pix). There can be maintenance, it’s not cheap, and takes time and effort to set up properly…realistically it took me several seasons to figure out how to maximize the benefits and set up a consistently functional system….but since I got it working well, it has saved me so much time and guesswork, vs hand-watering. My Cannabis plants are happier than ever, and 8-9’ tall at the onset of bloom- which is very challenging in the high dessert climate of Northern NM. The fruits and veggies love it too. But I’m always learning, evolving, and hopefully will always keep improving my gardening capabilities. So with that said, I’d love to hear your critique of the Blumats, and what irrigation systems you prefer as an alternative.

[@22369jhb]

Thanks for the cool vids!! look forward to more.

[@downsouthsquonks4020]

Absolutely killed it with the answers to those questions Jeremy! Love how in depth you go with each one! Keep it up my far my favorite YT channel!

[@michaelguest9428]

Great video! I would love to see a 5 gallon pot grow.

[@Brandon-me6gj]

Love this info! Look forward to seeing seasons rewards from your perfect greenhouse

[@Fiscals_Organics]

Yes!!!!

[@russellgriffin8220]

Love this channel. I’m so excited for your content.

[@beatsbydawood9529]

I had this issue with my earthbox aswell! You should water less than 10% like 0.6 or so gallons that early in the grow and also you flushing the the res with fresh water and dumping it all out help tremendously indeed

[@JJ-iu9gv]

110% would love the rosin run!!!

[@chrisgrasso76]

Come on Pedro!! Let us learn with your equipment!!!!!! Pedro for President!!

[@johnboy8594]

heck yeah ! love Dizzy and Pedro Cheers

[@sappymammal]

You guys sold me on the earth boxes and they really are the way to go but I was previously a 5 gallon bucket/ pot grower and would love to see how you do it.

[@williamkreth]

Amazing content dude, thank you guys

[@hgbuckwheat660]

5 gallons is the guerillas best friend. Slow release with hempys or even a 5gallon reservoir with drip lines keeps you from having to pack in the water as much. The more you know 💫. A drone is not a bad idea

[@tonyadams89]

What are you thoughts on adding sand, silt, and clay to your soil mixes? Leighton Morrison preaches it allot in the horizonal soil system ideas. I find the info very intriguing as our real end goal is bio-mimicary at its fullest potential. Also many of the microorganisms rely on these materials in their food chain. Love the show and Thanks for all the great information youre sharing. looking forward to season 2!

[@connort6976]

hash making process would be awesome. Notes on cold room and wpff storage would be super helpful especially for lower scale!

[@pizzamon795]

Wow, those biceps

[@desertgrown3076]

First off, you guys are Rockstars. I love your message, content and products. I have two 5x5ft areas and 1 4x4 area I would like to try a take n bake kits for. Do you have a slightly bigger kit for the larger areas? Would I get same kit but bigger fabric beds with more bags of soil? I would like to order them next month, hopefully they are back in stock.

[@deeober2930]

Hello. When you are doing a cover crop, and once you are ready to plant your main crop, when should you drop the cover crop? Thank you and appreciate all these videos.

Hello just like to say I’ve learned much from watching your videos I’ve grown cannabis 35+ years and landscaped, gardening as long Thank you it’s refreshing to see younger growers with so much knowledge I have a question for you can Kashi be used like a foliar spray??

[@Hampshireshooting]

Nice greenhouse setup 👍👍

[@Shortdawg_Shortdawg_]

That’s dope green house 🏡

[@jordanhutchinson1149]

Thank you so much for doing this series. I can't imagine how many people this has helped. I can't wait until the next series. Please don't do small pots...personally I would rather see something unique like incorporating aquaponics or something

[@majh8red]

I have to thank you for this grow series, Jeremy. There was a cornucopia of great information all throughout these many hours of video. Question about cover crops. Is there a right or wrong time to plant a cover crop? Or is it like the old saying, better late than never? I'm week one of flower & my White Clover was just delivered. Is it advisable to plant now to keep a steady Nitrogen supply or is it better to not plant in flower?

[@lancoschino731]

If Canucks grow can do it amazingly I can't wait to see how u do the organic in a3 gallon or 5 gallon setup

[@shaterproofblosm]

You two are so cute xD World is lucky to have ya

[@nicholastebo9551]

If you had Hard Water would you consider using a RO filter?? Or would you do water testing to see what miners are higher in the water and then create or amend your soil lighter in those certain minerals based off the water you’ll be using?

[@coyspain8180]

With New Mexico going rec you guys thinking about starting up something here the grow shops are having a hard time keeping up with demands and I think you got the market corned in the living soil game

[@Xeroxed96]

Would it be possible to get a video on how to re ammend living soil in detail? Have been following you guys since even before the 10x10 series and have been waiting for a series like this. You guys are top tier. Much love.

[@heldermanuel6826]

I'm waiting for this 🤙🎉

[@VeganChiefWarrior]

5 gal setup sounds good if u can,but try use pure worm castings as the soil

[@donaldbedore4304]

Yes 5 gl. Because some of don't have that alot of up front big money, or other things come up.

[@T_Bonz]

Hello, I would highly appreciate if you can show us how to reuse the soil mixes you used during this session : what do the soil need to be amended with ? In which quantity ? Do we need to let it recover before using it again, and how much time ? Thank you for sharing your useful knowledge !

[@philharris7378]

reamended+ new grow in same soil

[@upshift9385]

Good info!

[@danielromanelli6094]

might be cool to hear about how you'd approach holding mother plants organically too. i:e. feeding etc. for something meant to remain in veg as opposed to stacking nutrients in preparation for flower, things like that.

[@sociallypatterneddefect9580]

Nice!

[@blotter1981]

You mentioned that you're not a fan of the Blumat watering system. Could you elaborate as to why? I am because I have fallen in love with mine in my 70 gallon 3x3 no till bed

[@RedMusicMagic]

I had the same thoughts exactly…I use 300 gallon grow bags outdoors, more like “low till” than no-till, but leaning in that direction, and reusing/amending my soil rather than dumping it each year…I use 2 Blumats per container, with their blusoak tape for distribution, and the plants love it.

[@ZoltrixGrower]

Enjoyed the video Jeremy!
