[@Addictedtothewild]

Please keep making videos. You’re a natural teacher and make learning fun.

[@mhpgardener]

Thanks for the kind words. Much appreciated.

BOBY IS BACK IN THE GROOVE

[@shutterspeedjb]

I've learned more from you over the years than anyone I've ever known or watched. Hate it when you're gone, jump for joy when you return. Always great info, and always presented in a down to earth way. Thanks. Keep it up!

[@justbob7645]

Man I'm sure glad your back. Your a wealth of knowledge!

[@sandhollowhomestead6972]

Bobby. Donald would be so proud of you right now. He'd be saying some Cajun words of pleasure and pride and give you that big Cajun smile. Even in a kitchen sink. Now that's something else. Have a great week!

[@moonraker814]

Welcome back!!!

[@leestrom2217]

Good to see you back.

[@Walt1119]

I grow bush beans in my hydro towers using the same MB that I use on everything else, I just plant the bean seeds, 60 days, I pick, pull the plants and replant again! Works fantastic, thanks for the video Bobby!!!! I learned all my hydro from you, so grateful!!!w

[@TheGuruStud]

They should produce much longer than that, especially if you top em some.

[@royardianto]

You're so inspiring. made me start planting stuffs and it is almost like therapy to see them grow. God bless!

[@2ladyhomesteadershodge898]

I really miss seeing you and Miss Susan's videos. I am ordering another pound of Strike green beans to grow in my cement mixing tubes....and, I got the inspiration from you. My daughter, Ambria, is in a wheelchair and can enjoy gardening on the side deck using Kitty Litter buckets and the hydroponic method YOU taught us. We really miss your wisdom. *Hope it helps* Vivian Ann living 100% off grid on the side of the mountain in northeast Tennessee

[@RichardCMongler]

Beautiful plants, you're doing a great job!

[@Agustin-ri1ih]

That's one of the many things I like about hydroponics: the simplicity. Some plants are tricky, but for most of them, if you give them minimum care they'll just grow and grow. Thanks for the video and the info!

[@robinsong7298]

Good golly I will have to give that a try next. Tell I'm still working I love her canning videos. God bless

[@mhpgardener]

Thanks. I'll let her know.

[@yy9618]

Wow very good job ,👍👍I am learning

[@weetreebonsai]

Bobby you make it so easy... I did have visions of Susan tossing the kitchen sink out to re decorate ;-)

[@rodneybeasley6270]

So glad you are back Bobby. I use your greenhouse growing knowledge everyday. Thanks

[@martinandersson2324]

Love watching your videos, I've learned so much from you years back when your videos on Hydro was the most informant and straight forward there was on the tube! Bless from the North & "If lord willing, I see you next time!😉 All the world's happiness to you and your family!//M🍃💚🍃

[@shurdellanderson7645]

You’re my new gardener hero 🦸‍♂️! You have a gift for gardening. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. Stay Blessed and keep gardening 👩‍🌾❤️💕

[@catinabeasley3872]

Hubby and I are doing some experimenting here in South Georgia. Heat is a factor, but we shall see. Thanks for all you do!

[@rodneybeasley6270]

I'm in Georgia too! The greenhouse is getting hot!

[@bettyanderson7756]

Just a wonderful video, Thank you

[@GaryWalker]

I've learned so much from your videos, man. Thank you for getting this information out there.

[@darla3021]

Excellant video!! 👍 With all the schools operating so differently, it occurs to me that you and your wife should be included in a home school curriculum. What you both teach are life skills that are so very necessary. Many thanks to both of you for sharing those skills so generously. ⚘

[@mhpgardener]

I agree, this should definitely be part of home schooling, or even public schooling. Gardening and self sufficiency are important skillsets. Thanks 👨‍🌾

[@tbear271]

I would agree 100% if you are teaching kids at home meet your visiting professor. Scientific knowledge as well as tangible visible results in a short period of time. Plus a great way to build healthy eating habits. Great videos, keep up the great work

[@sumrica]

Always a good video and a positive message.

[@nitramdmij]

Thank you, Bobby! You are definitely an inspiration to so many of us.

[@jerricroft937]

What did I learn from this video? Bush's Baked Beans are great!

[@beckypots1]

What good inspiration, perhaps challenge your followers to see what they can recycle. In these times it's good to see the positive outcomes. Bless you Bobby!

[@BrandonPouncey]

I’m glad you’re back! You have been very inspiring! Hope you’re doing well. Keep up the great work!!

[@twistedpost1066]

I've always enjoyed your videos. Hope you and your family are happy and healthy.

[@RickMarshallMaps]

Great video. Thanks for the information

[@jeremytschudy1367]

Absolutely love your videos. You got me into hydroponics and I appreciate learning from you each time you post. Thank you.

[@jsuria1966]

Great Idea 👍👍

[@greeneyedflower2408]

This is so exciting! Thank you for your experimentation! I love beans.

[@harryhatz5137]

Good job. Guess the next one is a bathtub. You have a green thumb. Nice to see your videos. Always bring a smile to my face

[@mhpgardener]

A bathtub, hmmm. 🤔🤔🤔 sounds interesting. Thanks for the kind words.

[@darla3021]

@@mhpgardener Another hydroponic raised bed...... Can't wait!!! 👍 I like that you are reusing items that usually scrapped!

[@nicksilvestro6307]

I couldn't agree more with the comments I see below you are a great teacher I have learned a lot and I hope you keep going thank you very much

[@gregsullivan8956]

Thanks so much for sharing. I appreciate you and your wife!!!

[@franciscomejia9549]

Greetings from Melbourne Australia. Thank you for the series. It has inspired me to get into this type of gardening. Cheers

[@mhpgardener]

Awesome, glad it helps mate.

[@Mental.Hub.]

Good to see you back! Could you do a video of what sort of things we can use around the house to balance the PH of hydroponics?

[@ronaldcolby4100]

Thanks for that idea

[@dvfreelancer]

I wish you did in-person seminars. You have a talent for putting together systems that scale.

[@scottkinder7728]

So happy to see your video notifications again! Grow big or grow home!

[@HomesteadingWithAngie]

I’m watching a lot of the videos and learning. My channel is only 1.5 years old. I haven’t done hydro outside just inside. But this is awesome

[@alibhika1644]

Your an inspiration. From here all the way down in Zambia.

[@fortaalvis4847]

Oh wow I love green beans.Thank you

[@firozosman]

Happy to see you again Bobby!

[@goforgreenliving]

So easy I can even understand it lol. I will give this way a shot this fall Thanks for sharing!

[@catherinefairley9034]

Great video, glad you are back to making videos.

[@Dmenbiker]

Bobby, thanks for the video.... Would you please explain more about the 2-2-1 mix... Thanks for your time... Dave

[@justdave6587]

[@RobbsHomemadeLife]

Ha, you are going to get a lot of views with this one, thumbs up Bobby.

[@ginnfreecs2994]

ohhh.! your back!

[@oldiep6340]

Good to see you growing Bobby

[@AaricHale]

That's so awesome ! They did really good !

[@theresabollman8061]

Amazing! Bobby you should apply for a patent of that general design. I know you & Susan are all about caring and sharing, but getting something like that out on the market would help a lot of people too. You guys are really something. Thanks for sharing.

[@mhpgardener]

It would be a great way to recycle old sinks for sure. Thank you.

[@wcfdemt]

How have you and your family been...can't wait for more videos

[@billemery9192]

Always a good day when I get notified that either you or Susan have posted a new video. Thanks so much. Were the beans the awesome Strike?

[@juliefleming6165]

i am going to grow myself some green beans! Thanks!

[@thomasgolaszewski6502]

Very cool! I just ordered a small bad of master blend to get started. Thanks for your non rocket science help!

[@MrKen-longrangegrdhogeliminato]

Hello mhpgardener, have heard anything from you in the last two yeras accourting to your last videos. I pray brother that you are doing well. Sure would like to hear more from you. Also so sorry of passing of (webcajun), Between him and you , I learned as so did everyone else so much, and miss greatly your input on crops and gardening.

[@wheat2714]

mannnnnnnnnnnnnn absolutely incredible that beans can grow in a sink thanks MHP and I'm still working my favorite youtube channel

[@sheripapin5311]

Awesome!

[@ladydrdelicious1273]

We miss your videos. Please make more!

[@OverGrowTheUk]

Always happy to see bobby !

[@johnlord8337]

Time to start growing sweet pea vines. Just went to chinese restaurant and they had pea shoots on the menu. Had them - and they were great with wok cooking (or steaming) soy sauce, garlic. So keep the softer and end lengths of sweet peas and the leaves and can eat these for great salad as well. Same for growing sweet potatoes and eating the same vine and leaves as well. Remember to steam/boil and eat all the pea and sweet potato leaves. NO waste.

[@johnmirbach2338]

very cool 😁✌🖖👌👍😎

[@Nozoki]

Awesome. I just happen to have a spare kitchen sink I was going to junk. Now I think I might just hold on to it.

[@ohhowhappygardener]

Great job!

[@sdfft820]

Well done Bobby. Now can you do the same with strawberries? Love to see that video.

[@maimclean7493]

Thank you. I'll ever look at the KITCHEN sinks the same way again. But OMG that's some tank top u had on.

[@PaulApppostle]

Amen. Blessed be the name of the lord

[@brucehayes5111]

Another fine job 👍 Gonna try that very thing this fall in the green house. Anybody got a kitchen sink for sale 😄

[@ShreejiFine]

nice to see you hydroponic man....

[@oulala994]

Very nice. When you say 2-2-1 per gallon, you mean 2 TEA SPOONS per gallon, table spoons, or something else? I just set up a ghetto kratky system using Ikea boxes, cardboard, yogurt pots and perlite, to grow greens on my balcony. Thanks!

[@RaymondLohengrin]

Excellent channel. Would you please write a list or do a video of the best seeds and varieties that you use? I b went to the local farm store and purchased lettuce but for the time it takes to grow this kind is not practical to grow. I have seen many of your videos and the variety of lettuce and other greens you use seem much better. Thank you.

[@greensnmachines]

Neat experiment. I tried germinating beans in rock wool in the past and every time I tried that, the seeds rotted away. I see using soil for starting the seeds and perlite as a shallow water bed is the way to go. Now I'm curious if beans can survive an NFT system?

[@420expressinc2]

Nice Bobby

[@jeanlaikan8400]

Amazing! No irrigation pipes, no electricity needed. Any issue with algae?

[@coreymcconnell2329]

I seen a couple of your videos back in the day when you was doing Hydroponics with different fertilizers masterblend and Miracle-Gro now if you use Miracle Grow and use the same chemistry as you use the master blend with the calcium and epsom salt the Miracle-Gro works great 2 grams calcium nitrate and 1 gram Epsom salt using Miracle Grow it works good that's Hydroponics but just to let you know you have a blessed life

[@coreymcconnell2329]

So if you can in the future maybe try Miracle-Gro again if you get a chance tablespoon or half a tablespoon of Miracle Grow 2 grams calcium nitrate and 1 grand Epsom salt using Miracle-Gro in 1 gallon of water guarantee you will love it great videos love watching and God bless

[@janinepestel7278]

I just found your channel, and subscribed. Love your videos and I'm learning a lot. Just wondered if you can give me an idea of what size net pot to use for plants. For example, I'm using a 2" net pot for things like lettuce and swiss chard, but I think I would need a larger one for things like tomatoes, peppers, etc.

[@novakchong3980]

thank you sir very simple explanation, can i use this method in hyacinth bean?

[@HydroHavenGrow]

Very nice. I"ve been thinking of other things to grow... and I have a few seeds leftover. Ads watched and thumb up hit. Take care, kind sir.

[@mhpgardener]

Thank you, much appreciated. 👍

[@nevadasmith4269]

Have watch and watch your videos and build a set up last year and it was fair, I still am confused a lot on the masterblend mixing for lettuce, if you could help it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for all the knowledge love watching

[@hudson8865]

Thank YOU!

[@keyplayr61greenhousehydrop14]

They grow well in Kratky too, Bobby!

[@stumpbumpers]

Well, I guess I know what I can do with those two stainless steel sinks by the barn😆

[@zaklloyd4335]

Have you ever made your own fertilizer? There's a Korean farming technique called JADAM, which specifies using the specific plant residues as the best fertilizers, like for like. Beans for beans, tomatoes for tomatoes etc. For your next batch of beans you could chop the old plants up, roots & all, add to a bucket of water along with some leaf mold and let it decompose anaerobically for a couple of months. Dilute at 1 part in 100 of water, add 1g sea salt per liter and you're good to go. Might make a nice experiment for you.

[@gregboshell4532]

Bobby this is 2021 and I was wondering if you were going to do any hydroponics videos this year we miss you

[@SaurabhM-rg3xx]

Hi Bobby! Did you have a drain? You hand watered the beans and how did the excess drained out? Sorry, if i missed that part 😊

[@joflewelling3179]

Can you do root vegetables like beets, potato’s and carrots in a Dutch bucket ?

[@pamrakes474]

That’s awesome

[@stevenquick4315]

I’ve been growing hydroponic lettuce since you did that series of videos way back when. I grow them under lights in a spare bedroom year round. I do need to replant one table now. Looks like it’ll be green beans. I can’t wait to try this one. Thanks Bobby, you have been an inspiration and mentor for many projects over the years. I’m glad you are still sharing your knowledge with us.

[@bengodwin7735]

I've noticed on these GBs that you didn't remove the soil from your roots. What is your thoughts on this? Do you always leave the soil before placing in perlite?

[@towerjokey]

Loved the vid.!! MHP are you still helping your community out with what you grow?

[@sandhollowhomestead6972]

Now that's a good honey-do! I love it when I can eat my work! Those are some good looking beans. Do you snap them or does she? LOL!

[@mhpgardener]

For this little batch, I wasn't involved in the snapping. But when we have buckets full, I'll do my share.

[@organiccraftworks3153]

BRILLIANT

[@soodypop2014]

where is this guy! i want to see more videos!

[@savelinafilemoni8656]

[@gregorybenson2001]

Wait?! You didn’t have to tressel your pole beans to get them to produce?

[@aaronbennett7218]

If you don't mind me asking, I am struggling with beans for some reason....What nutrients are you using, do you know a suggested PH/EC level for this? Just wanna make sure I'm in the ballpark...
