Massive Raised Garden UPDATE! - We made a HUGE mistake...

Watch us build the garden HERE: • How to build a MASSIVE... Making and planting our own garden was super fun. Its amazing what you can accomplish with just some small seeds and water. Come along as we spend all summer planting weeding, and growing our own raised garden. Things... got a little out of hand with the pumpkins. But we have plenty of ideas on how to make things better for next year!

In India we provide a thing called "alaan" for plants like pumpkins to grow. They are basically a grid of bamboo sticks & some metalic wires, raised ~6 feet above the ground. The pumpkin will climb on it & the fruits will hang. Ground is free, easier to irrigate & maintain.

Some tips from my experience: 1. Those pumpkins will be coming back year after year...for a while. Probably until you remove all the dirt and replace it. You wont need to plant more. 2. Never spray the leaves of your plants with water. The sun will burn them. They absorb their nutrients, energy and water intake from their rooting system which is buried (hopefully) in the dirt/compost mix. 3. Adding mulch around your plants will also help them retain water, and also break down overtime which will add more nutrients to your soil mix. 4. If you prune back leaves and vines without nodes or growth on them, it will allow more sunlight to hit your garden. It will also promote more growth/flowering for the plants. 5. You will know when plants are done when they begin to develop flowers on them. 6. The white things on the corn are called "husks". The corn looks beautiful! 7. Never grow any vine (pumpkin, watermelon) all in the same bed. They will overtake the garden and eventually only the strongest plant will survive. A "trellis" system works amazing for vines. 8. The watermelon test is correct, yellowish skin and a hallow sound, but bare in mind the duration of growth they may not be ready. 9. Planting flowers around your garden will help with pollination (attract bees and butterflies - pollinators) keep bugs away, and can deter animals. 10. To save costs with your raised garden beds, you can try filling them with some leftover shrubbery, sticks, logs, and leaves (stay away from grass clippings). Top it off with some mulch/straw or compost. The rooting system probably only reaches about 18cm so you dont need to fill the entire unit. 11. The seed packages themselves have the amount of days it takes for the plant to be ready. It also provides details on how to plant the seeds, where to plant them, the different soil types required, and how much sun they need. Sometimes it helps to start them indoors. After the last frost, plant them outside. Best of luck with your pumpkin nightmare! They spread like wildfire. I wouldnt wish that upon my worst enemy.

This may get lost in the comments, but here's a tip for super hot Jalapenos: When planting, take a half an eggshell, fill it with Used Coffee grinds, and then put the Jalapeno seeds inside the coffee grinds inside the egg shell, and bury that just below the surface. Makes the hottest and most abundant Jalapenos I've ever had, probably due to the Acidity of the mixture.

Some tips: -Cucumbers had fungal disease or were dry (tomatoes and peppers also may be sick) -Old cucumbers are bitter so chose small younger ones -Potatoes are good to eat since early summer (after blooming) just poke a hole in ground and check -Cultivate deep for potatoes because will grow flat (disc shape) -Deep cultivation is good for plants -Late summer break (without ripping from plant) leaves of onion to let underground part grow bigger (check, I may be wrong when to do this) -Onion leaves are yummy with cucumber -I would suggest watering at evening when sun is down because soil will absorb more water -I would suggest planning few lettuces every 3-4 weeks than all in ones -On seed package should be some useful information (planting date, plants per square foot, harvest date)

[@honglianglim8637]

i thought cucumbers were climbers? and they need the mesh to climb up?

[@ExProsiveGaming]

If you decide to water in the evening, DO NOT hit the leaves. Wet leaves will stay wet if the sun is down and that's the n.1 cause for fungal diseases like powdery or downey mildew.

[@ryand3581]

Some other pointers: Sprouts: - Make sure you water the ground enough for each plant, moist soil is essential to getting good sprouts - Get some fertilizer, brussels love a high nitrogen fertilizer on the top of the soil and this is likely the reason you didn't get any. Pumpkins: - Grow and train them into lines. For those size beds you are probably looking at 2 or 3 lines of plants which should get you around about 15~ pumpkins - Don't be afraid of pruning new shoots, don't let them waste their energy growing excessively big. If you've got 4-5 pumpkins growing on a plant then you can prune the plant so it makes the fruits bigger. Bare in mind on smaller varieties you'll want 10~ fruits per plant. - Get some wood/cardboard or even some plastic film and place it under each growing pumpkin this will help keep them mark free / rot free because if they sit on soil they can start rotting away. (You can buy plastic pumpkin holders which is a bowl type item that has a spike on it so you can keep the pumpkin off the floor) Carrots: - If you want bigger carrots try and loosen the soil with sand, broken leaves. Also make sure you thin them out so you don't have any overcrowding. Onions: - Your onions looked on the small side, you probably either didn't water enough or there was a lack of nitrogen in the soil. These can also suffer with dense soil just like the carrots. - They also looked like they were picked too early, most onions you leave to grow until the tops fall over, die and feel like paper. Peas: - They 100% had too much sun, you could even potentially grow these in with your corn plants because they like similar soils and the pea plants will get support from the corn plants + shade from the corn plants. Cucumbers: - Remember most (if not all) cucumbers are climbers so they need something to grow up (the plants can get heavy so make sure it's very sturdy) - This is probably because they were getting too much sun but it could have also been irregular soil conditions. If you have dry soil and then wet soil they don't like it. Try to keep the soil moist. You'll find most cucumbers will grow much better in a polytunnel or a greenhouse because everything stays moist and humid. - Check your soil nutrition because a few of the above plants could have been affected by lack of nitrogen. Cucumbers will get a bitter taste with a lack of nitrogen. - Make sure you prune side shoots! Other: - Add some separators! - Consider dedicating one area of the beds for plants for bees, you can never have too many bees! Rosemary, Chives, Borage, Oregano, Mint, Fennel, Sage, Thyme and Lemon balm are all fantastic choices with the first 4 being the best because they do well in dry/sunny conditions.

[@greenbat8018]

As for potatoes, here in the netherlands the farmers grow them in mounts same goes for the aspergagus (?). Also if you want more information the Wageningen University is the university which does alot of research into efficient farming. There website will probably contain a lot of answers to your problems.

[@ericakusske3321]

regarding onions, there are long day, neutral, and short day onions. for example the "walla walla" strain is considered a "long day" because once the daylight hours hit 14 hours of sunlight per day the bulb growth stops, (so in south central Kentucky that's about the beginning of June) and shortly after that (a week or so) is when you'd want to bend over those tops. to get super large onions, start them inside in late summer, plant them out in fall, mulch well, and depending on your climate you may need to put up a row cover to keep them from freezing over the winter. in spring pull off the row cover, and let 'em grow! there is a higher rate of bolting (sending up flower heads) in overwintered and onion sets (the tiny baby onion bulbs for planting) because as far as they're concerned it's their second year and it's time to reproduce, just cut the flower stalk off to direct the plant's energy back to bulb production. unless you have an heirloom/open pollinated strain and want to try producing your own onion seeds, then let 'em bloom, but be aware that the onion bulbs from those plants won't be as flavorful or keep as well as plants that were not allowed to bloom and produce seeds.

[@epicdabber1008]

You need some mulch it will cut down the ammount of watering needed and decompose which will add nutrients to the soil. you could also add the dead plants from last year like all the pumpkin leaves directly on the soil, but you could also grind or chip it and then use it. mulch would also be nice because your garden soil will natrually sink over time so adding a layer to fill that and it would also add nutrients to the soil slowly over time, mulch also harbers benificial bugs and worms and it will add to increase biodiversity. i would also recomend putting up bird feeders in the area because birds can go in and around your garden and eat bugs and other pests that might hinder your plants growth and birds are just nice to have around. a cool idea is that you could biuld a pond or have a company like aquascape build one for you (they have a great youtube channel and would probally love to collab) build a pond for you then you set up a timer and a pump that will peridiocally pump fish fertilized water into your garden (compared to the drip system i think your gonna to put in) beds this would explode your plant growth compared to tap water it would also make for a great video explaining how the pond system works, the pond would also give you opprotumities to grow edible fish or just show fish pond this would also be great for realaxing and pleasure like feeding your fish and would lead to wonderfull expirences with nature. my opinion is is that the more biodiversity you have the more succesful you will be.

In terms of suggestions: You may want to get some tomato plants next year, but remember to add supports, as they tend to snap undet hew weight of their own fruit if not supported properly. It takes some work, but the reward of your very own tomatoes is worth it. And since You had some success with carrots, You may also consider getting beetroot, turnips and kohlrabi s next time. One thing to consider - Your brussles sprouts are a TWO YEAR plant, so you harvest them in the second year. This is why you had nothing this year. It's awesome to have them, but at some point they tend to get big and with how You've planted them, half of them at least would have to go. Also kohlrabi s are a two year plant, some beetroots can also be a two year plants, but some are harvested within the same season. You should really read about every plant harvest, because it's not just about when the harvest season is, but also how many seasons have passed since planting. Hope this helps:)

The beans bring nitrogen to the soil and make it thrive. All plants need nutrient wise to thrive is the right amount of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. Nitrogen increases growth increased phosphorus helps your flower stage and potassium makes your plant strong.

Very nice kids, good job for your first year. Plant your peas really early, they should almost be finished by the time the weather is warm enough to stress the plants. Don't be afraid to hack those darned pumpkins back, never hurt them. Plant your lettuce in succession. Half a row every ten days to two weeks, controls the harvest. Your beds would be ideal for some PVC hoops and some shade cloth. Beets and raddish are pretty easy to grow. Wifey and I always planted nasturtiums. They provide some bug control and the colorful flowers have a peppery flavor on salads. Herbs, I almost forgot. Herbs are easy to grow and if you have some favorites the flavors are some much better fresh from the garden. Good luck.

Drip irrigation would do really well there. It only waters the soil instead of the plant. Wet leaves at the wrong time of day can actually harm some plants.The leaves never need water, just the roots. That can be pretty tedious when you have a lot of leaves to avoid. With a drip line, you snake a line around on top of the dirt, use sod staples to secure it down, and hook it to some water. Then you can either turn on a valve whenever you want or run it on a timer.

I feel your pain with both pumpkins and butternut squash. They’ve taken over my yard/garden area. One technique for potatoes is to start a plant inside of an old tire, then as the plant grows, add another tire and soil.

Love your work on the electric hummwv!

[@xRainbowInTheNightx]

I thought I saw it mentioned, but you needed to give the Brussel sprouts more time. They like the cold weather! Some plants will not put any energy into growing when its too hot (tomatoes won't put out new flowers/fruit for example) so just do a little research on timing. The easiest way is to look up your garden zone, and your areas average last frost/first frost dates, and you can plan around those. If you mound more dirt on your potatoes they would have done a little better. They like to be buried as they grow. I would have also given your carrots more time in the ground as well- they looked so healthy and you guys could have gotten some huge carrots! Just some advice for your 2021 garden: make a plan for what you want to grow and what you want to get out of your garden. Because you have limited space, you can look into companion planting. That way you'll be able to get 2 plants out of the same space, and they'll be beneficial to each other. I keep a notebook of what seeds I buy and where, when I plant them, the days I harvest and how much, so that the next year I can look at what worked well, what I needed more of, and what we had too much of. I'm glad that the gardening bug has bitten you guys! It's so fun and rewarding, and you did a fantastic job on your first garden!

You have the perfect set up to put a cattle panel from the edge of one garden bed to the edge of the next garden bed. Plant your plants between the wood and the panel.

Tomatoes for sure. I recommend cherry tomatoes on a “cattle panel” arch trellis. Mine is 8 feet tall, but yours could be easily shortened (with bolt cutters”) so Cambry could reach the ones at the top. The varieties to consider are “sweet 100s” “sun sugar” “sun gold” and “sweet millions”. You also could use full size cattle panel to control the sprawl of the pumpkins.

Very cool to see your pumpkins grown out of a raised bed. You're right, they can be trellised. Look up the KZbin channel 'Self Sufficient Me'. Mark, the creator of the channel, grows pumpkins that way. He lives in Australia...regularly produce veggie gardening videos. REGARDING CUCUMBERS: they are a tropical plant that require a regular watering, figure every couple of days, consider mulching to conserve water / prevent evaporation. There are a few things that will cause your cucumbers to taste bad. 1) not enough water; and, 2) letting them grow too big. Bigger doesn't always mean better. Some lettuces can have a horrible taste if they get too much sun, as well. Thank you for sharing your adventures in gardening!

Yep. Basically harvest just before the first frost. Or just after if you want to kill the bugs on them.

I'm not a gardener AT ALL, but just wanted to mention about the cucumbers. When I was younger, I planted cucumbers near water melons and the cucumbers turned out terrible! When I mentioned it to someone who does garden, they said the two plants were probably cross pollinated, which ruined both of them, and to not put them near each other in the future.

[@bolajijohnibikunle3883]

you two make me laugh so much, thanks for your simplicity and truthfulness in this post!

[@kevinfleming9919]

Get a drip (soaker) hose to lay in the plant beds and run along near the plants so that you can water at the base and roots without having to "burn" the plants by spraying water on them and leaving water drops on the leaves to act like magnifying glasses to amplify the sun, helps to stop getting fungus growth on the leaves as well. Vine varieties of Pumpkins need 50 - 100 square feet per hill (mound that the seeds are planted in). Pumkins need 4 feet between hills and 8 feet between rows, you can get up to 6 pumpkins off one plant and up to 12 from miniature varieties (plant those 2 feet apart). With your vine Pumpkins you can just plant them at one end and just control the direction the vines go as they get longer and make them go the length of the plant beds. Nice looking raised bed system you built! Also, buy ladybugs and praying mantis to put in the plant beds and control pest infestations, and certain flowering plants near the garden will attract and support insects that eat bad bugs in the garden!

With neem oil be sure to spray in the evening so they don't get sunburned! Do a test leaf first to be sure you don't spray the whole plant and lose it if it reacts badly. Beautiful garden. I watched both because I was wistfully wishing I could have a wheelchair garden! It's lovely.

Regarding the brussel sprouts: you might have given up too early. Usually, they are harvested after the first frost. Judging by the footage it is just to early/warm for them to form the small heads.

Before I make some suggestions for your next season of gardening, I just wanted to say you guys are an amazing, very talented, hard working, made-for-each-other couple! My very best wishes to you both! ♥️♥️ Lettuce and most salad mix crops are cool season crops. So, plant them early spring and a second crop in late fall. They bolt (flower) in summer with high temperature, and the leaves turn bitter. You can pull them out in summer but leave a few to bolt and harvest seeds for next season. Trellises for the pumpkins won't work due to the weight. Let them grow on the ground. Hope this helps!

From what I've heard, first year jalapenos are mild. Second year jalapenos can be quite hot. and after that they are generally "normal". My dad's aunt used to make salsa from her plants and the second year batch was really good for tests of courage or endurance.

[@odie1441]

Too bad those weren't jalapeños. Looked more like banana peppers instead, they are milder too

First year. They die off every year. What are you talking about?

Jalapenos are mild when they are over watered.

[@4000marcdman]

@@goodphrase1 they die if left in the frost. Most grow them in buckets if they live in colder zones.

[@buckykattnj]

@@insanebombgamer Most vegetables can be overwintered, but 99% of the plants will die at the end of the year because farmers and home gardeners don't both to overwinter. Peppers only survive winter outside in mild climates. It also was not a Jalapeno. Shape and color was wrong and the flesh was not thick enough. I would guess it was a Anaheim/Hatch Pepper. It was too green to be a Banana Pepper, but it was the right shape. There are mild or heatless Jalapenos... if you grow any hot pepper, the heat is related to the stress the pepper has, more stress, more heat. While the plant is growing fruit, don't water it at times, you will get hotter peppers. I grew Jalapenos, Bells, Pepperoncini, Anaheim, Serrano and Cayenne peppers this year.

[@chansepaskins1915]

1. I've had really good luck with strawberries up here in Logan, especially in a raised beds. Literally the best fruit I've ever had, but it might take a year or two to really get going. 2. Powdered milk when planting helps potatoes grow way bigger (like 3x) 3. Green beans also grow well here, if you make a little fence with two lines of wire running horizontally and yarn running up and down across the wire, the plants will grow up it in a neat spiral. Might work out better than snap peas, and they are super forgiving. 4. Some herbs like basil, mint, rosemary, and parsley can actually grow well in Utah, but basil has a tendency to spread everywhere and cross pollinate with mint. 5. You ought to try to grow some mushrooms, wet hay and woodchips along with the spores can grow a ton here. Could be a good collab with Cody's Lab. He is a very good gardener and could provide some neat insights. I know you guys don't live here in Logan anymore, but he's still close enough to collaborate with 🤷‍♀️ Just some thoughts!

Hey, any reason for raised beds?

[@prairiepanda]

@@samhaokip9126 wheelchair accessible

[@chansepaskins1915]

@@samhaokip9126 A lot of good reasons actually. I've done it for better control over soil contents, density, nutrients, and water drainage/retention mainly. It's far easier to fine tune the growing conditions that way. Strawberries can be super temperamental in this climate, and raised gardens have a longer season than in-ground gardens because they are easier to warm early in the spring when the ground is still frozen. It can make a big difference.

[@lourdesramero7414]

Very exciting garden! Next year, grow those pumpkins up a trellis. They'll be fine. Just erect some hog fence at the edge of a bed. (make sure it doesn't shade parts of the garden - or DOES shade parts you want shaded like lettuce.) If a pumpkin gets scary big, make a hammock for it. Pantyhose work great. Also good for melons, winter squash, beans, peas, cukes. You can grow lots of things vertically!!! You GO!!!

[@anthonyking4287]

Great start guys - well done! Hope your asparagus works out - it can take ages to develop and is tricky to weed as the roots are everywhere! Keep your pumpkins trimmed next yr so the growth goes into the fruit and not so much greenery. Plant lettuce in stages (ie - 2 wks apart) that way you get some ready at different times rather than all at once. Look into 'ridging' your potatoes. Good luck - you are both inspirational
