Dear lady, you are a national treasure. The 99% of us, who are poor, but still want our own gardens, can do this. You explained this so wonderfully and you speak to those of us, who must live frugally by absolute necessity. God bless you wonderful lady. You have changed lives by this video. Do you also have a video on how to winterize the totes. I live in the midwest and we got 10" of snow last year. I want to grow all year round and I'm wondering how to protect the plants from extreme cold and snow.

I came up with this on my own a year ago April 15th, after moving into a house in a community overrun with massive crabgrass! I unpacked all of my grey tubs, ordered 8 more from Walmart, drilled large holes in the borttoms, layered with 1" of rock, 2" of sand, & 2 types of soil. I grew a very lush green garden in the middle of the desert, & have already started replanting for this year! These tubs hold incredible moisture in the 114°-117° desert heat!

This is also an excellent method for renters and people who may have to move frequently. My husband is active duty Marine Corps, so we have to be ready to pick up and move pretty frequently. With this kind of container gardening we can take our garden with us and not have to lose out on the time and money we invested to grow our own food.

Wow! Am I glad I found this lady! I was looking around for a cheap and easy diy raised bed to build. I'm 71 with back surgeries, osteoporosis and past bone fractures, but I still want to grow herbs to start and some snow peas, beans, flowers and such. But I'm in Northwest Florida where it is hot, hot, hot in the summer. I'd like to see if I could buy those rolling totes so I could roll them around next year until I find the best place to put them -- half my yard is "mottled" shade. I'm a beginning gardener because I've finally retired and have time. Do you think the black totes with two wheels would make them too hot down here? Still trying to keep cost down - retired, single social workers do not have a lot of money -- at least I don't. I'm going to look at more of your videos for help. Thanks for posting this!! Also, is June too late to plant anything? We're in a drought here, so now that we're in hurricane season -- rain will come. I'm so excited! I have a BUNCH of yard debris in back of my old privacy fence where previous owners just threw their seasonal yard debris behing the fence. Can't afford to pay $600 quoted to me to clean that out and remove when I could recycle, too! Sorry for the lengthy post - sheltering in place by myself I sometimes blab too much for lack of company.

I don't know if this would work, but you could try taping (double-sided tape) aluminum foil to the outside of the totes to reflect sunlight. I find foil at my local dollar store, so it's cheap to buy. You can also get a pack of mylar foil, which is shiny and available at Amazon or some garden/greenhouse stores. Also, for a few dollars you can buy Krylon spray paint, which is made for plastics. If you get a light color, spray the bins any color you like, and keep the interior black.

@ Barnett Langford 👋☺️ I have used worn light colored cotton sheets or pillow cases (on smaller plastic coffee tubs) inside the tubs overlapping north-south and east-west...or outside over lapping inward. Filling with layered ingredients helped keep fabric in place. The light colors reflect the sun. I recycle what can't be reused and they compost lovely ( natural fibers) when I want a New Look🤗 I just switch them out. I was so pleased with myself...the results when I used the small floral printed sheets..it made an ordinarily bland yard very colorful ☺️💜✝️💜 My adult children giggled, "Okay mom..too much time on your hands, huh?!" 💜✝️💜

Save those lids. You can use them for smaller pots that drain. When you water the plants inside the lids, if you put too much water in, it will overflow the lid and keep a small amount of water at the bottom. Lids are great for seedling starter pots to sit in. And Robbie, please, what a great solar fountain the lid would be. The birds could really get in there and take a bath.

When my husband and I bought our house it came with several totes full of Christmas decorations. We've gone through them and combined several into one. I just happened to go into the shed today and I saw all these totes sitting there and was wondering what to do with them. Happy I stumbled across this video. And out of curiosity I was wondering if Robbie is related to Mary from Mary's Nest.

This will be awesome to try out this year. I'm in Minnesota & just a couple of miles from the Mississippi River. There used to be a Lot of industrial companies that once allowed to dump anything anywhere. So I honestly don't trust the soil to be clean enough to grow anything edible. With the way things are going in this country I feel it's very important that us Americans learn to become more self sufficient if we hope to survive. Our government is not going to look out for us, we will need to band together, and help all our brothers & sisters. Happy growing to All!!!

Oh wow thank you for sharing that. I have called and spoken to them and they are so nice. I asked them once about the colors they come out with and why sometimes they are so cheap, and that’s because it was a special order maybe a college color or some thing and then later they sell off those colors at a really good price. Right now they have these red ones that are like an eggplant color for something like $52 for eight of them and they’re beautiful. Thank you for sharing this thank you so much ❤️😊 and they are an American Company made here in the USA 🇺🇸

I just remember something that I did 40 years ago. I started my first garden back then and I had Rodale gardening magazines and I learned alot from the magazines were great to read and it said go to the woods and dig up some top soil as it is very rich soil as the leaves were decomposed over the years. My garden loved that top soil, very rich that I got from the woods.
