Could get fine straw local, cut grass for the first time this year, used cut grass to dress my transplants

[@TheRipeTomatoFarms]

Give it a try Timothy! Just make sure it hasn't been sprayed with chemicals! :-)

I absolutely love grass cuttings to use as mulch. So beneficial 😁

Carrots, planted a few weeks ago during a prolonged dry spell. Then rain for a few days. Carrots have started growing.

Thanks Paul!! :-)

[@MechanicMark613]

Good idea but I would have screwed through the old wood into the good wood which would make it stronger

[@TheRipeTomatoFarms]

I did. The screws were 3" long and 2x4's are only 1.5" thick. I went it from both sides.

[@MechanicMark613]

@@TheRipeTomatoFarms I’m sorry, I apologize that I did not see that, I love your videos and Quickies 👍

[@TheRipeTomatoFarms]

@@MechanicMark613 no worries man! You're right though, it makes sense to have the screw bite into the good wood last as it will hold the bad wood together. Spot on!

My second year of gardening in Central Florida in a backyard garden. How many times can I amend my growing areas? Should I leave an area dormant or put in a cover crop? I sow in soil, grow bags and 5 gallon buckets.

[@shirleyk623]

Patricia, I grow in raised beds, 5 gal buckets, and grow bags. I fertilize every 15 or so days. I mix my compost and my fertilizer together. I'm not a professional, gardener but I have been gardening for over 40 years. I can see the plants like that and they put out new foliage and fruits.

[@TheRipeTomatoFarms]

You can amend as many times as you like Patricia, depending on the amendment. Dormancy with a cover crop is a great tool give the garden and the soil a break. I wouldn't both letting containers or grow bags go dormant, container gardening is a different beast where those practices are rarely used.

[@Freedom2025-x2b]

@@TheRipeTomatoFarms I reuse grow bag and container soil. I have an area where I “dump it” then add amendments to it and new soil! I find warms I put back and grubs I stomp!

[@Freedom2025-x2b]

@@shirleyk623 thank you very much for your input. It’s valuable and I appreciate it. I was rarely using fertilizer after setting up the plant

[@socloseagain4298]

Hey dude! Do u have any tips for peppers germination? I've been replanting 2 times already and they wont germinate! 😢

[@TheRipeTomatoFarms]

Seed Viability Test first!! Don't waste soil, space, or time until you know you have viable seeds. Super easy to do, takes less than a week!: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jXyviaOFms97p5I

Do you have an episode on transplanting from outside raised garden beds to a heated greenhouse

[@lorisaunders176]

Just wondering Jeff,,,do you add soil to your compost while curing? And, what type of lettuce is the best for indoor growing? Thanks…Lori from Newfoundland 🇨🇦

[@TheRipeTomatoFarms]

Hi Lori... I add old pots and plant root balls, so the compost does get "soil" added to it. For indoor lettuce, all the romaines and buttercrunches do awesome!

[@etaferahuamare3408]

Hi !

Howdy!

[@nicholasnarcowich9163]

The cover crop I really didn't catch. I know basketball was created to keep players active between baseball & football. Then they all became an entire sport. (None of them do I ever follow, I find them to be a waste of my time.) But cover crops, are there not plants that can be useful besides "cover crops?" Why not just let weeds take over then disk, till or plow, depending on the field size & scope of the field... Why not just grow something that will give a harvest? i.e. cover crops do not compute :-) I watched it again, & I do not see the difference between what a weed does & a cover crop. Seems the same to me.
