@devinthegardner- i have "turned over" the dirt in my garden as i believe this might be the firs step to planting in group veggies and fruit. Im finding black ants and the weeds are sprouting big like never before. like i said before... im new to all of this and i need some information and guidance through it all. i know it can be done. #1, do you have a video on either gardening for beginners for outdoors gardening (i saw the one video that had the potato bags!)? i live in a region that is hot in the summers (104 degrees plus) but cool nights and its in the mountains so the dirt is dry and rocky. #2 what are inset control products i can use that are safe for the garden? and last (i think) those black "tarpy" looking things that i found in old planting boxes... are they used to stop weeds from growing in the vegetation? #4 (i said i THOUGHT it'd be all lol) can anything be planted above ground or in the planting boxes or are some things just MADE to be in the ground directly... OH and what mulch and panting soil is best to mix for an outside garden? sorry so many questions... i am sooo brand new to all of this but im in the mode of transitioning my family back to the food from the earth... THANKS!
@DevinTheGardener Жыл бұрын
I'll help you out! When you turn over your dirt there will be dormant weed seeds that sprout. I'd suggest turning your dirt over and then putting a tarp over the soil for a few weeks to kill any weeds. For insect control I don't use products, just cover your vegetables with a shade cloth or mosquitto netting. Everything can be planted above ground but make sure you have enough depth for the roots to grow. Some vegetables need more space for there roots. For soil you can try a mels mix combination which you can make yourself or to break up your very hard dry and rocky dirt you can add alot of compost. It won't be perfect soil right away but over time your soil will become nice.
@justprayer Жыл бұрын
@@DevinTheGardener PERFECT! so right now, the section ill make is for the things that need deep roots (in the ground). how deep should the dirt be turned over? 3ft maybe? what i HAVE done is turn on the water for like 20 min early morning, then go out at lunch to turn over, then go in the evening to remove all the big rock and old netting and old tarp... just whatever that is in there that i find from the previous owners.... so after that is done, put the new tarp over the dirt and let sit for a few week. got it. home depot? lowes?

So I got a box of 5 dozen eggs and want to start a ton of seeds using all the cartons. However a simple windowsill won’t really work in the case. So it setting these cartons outside viable? I live in southern Texas where I get lots of sun and hot weather. Just wondering the best way to set this up with limited indoor space and ample outdoor space. Also I have good shaded areas as well. Thanks in advance
@DevinTheGardenerАй бұрын
Put the egg cartons in your shaded area until the seeds germinate and place a plastic container overtop to keep the moisture in until they germinated and then take it off.
@maryelkhair96088 ай бұрын
Thank you so much Devin! I just checked and my apartment is South facing - woho! Can i keep my egg carton outside in the light (without direct sunlight) would that be ok? and also, why did you put 2 seeds in each egg cup instead of 1? thanks! x
@DevinTheGardener7 ай бұрын
Not all your seeds will germinate 100% especially if they are old. Put two just in case. Yeah keeping your egg cartons outside without direct sunlight is fine.

If you use fresh garden soil add a bit of vermiculite or perlite in it so the seeds can germinate and pop through the soil. Pop a hole in the bottom of egg cartons as well

I have a 600w Rhizon. You do need about 20 inches above the seedling tray to use it. If you don't have that much space then go for a less watts lamp. They are less powerful and can be closer to your seedling tray

If you cover the egg carton while the seeds are germinating then it will keep the humidity in and you don't need to water. After the seeds germinate then take the cover off and youll have to bottom water twice a week or so. Every 3 days
