Me and many other friends and family have just begun to experience the joys of gardening. So glad people are waking up from vapid consumer culture and the mental rot of television and are learning the joys of nature, self-sufficiency and the simple things in life. Now if we could just get these rabid social media weirdos to appreciate the simple things in life instead of wallowing in useless drama and obsessive attention seeking through transparently fake virtue signaling we might have a chance.

I use the square foot method, and I do not use the fancy soil mixes like most do use with it. Instead I use compost, I use trifecta plus, and I just now got the drip irrigation, although I bought everything from scratch and have to put together, so we will see if this helps. If the plants look like they need a boost later in the summer, around august or September, I just scratch some compost and maybe some more trifecta plus in around the roots and water. I also use morblooms, and fish fertilizer, and occasionally Epsom salt if needed. I have found that I could simply use a large tomato cage for about 2 or so cucumber plants to grow in, and it works really well. This year, I think I might look for more ways to grow vertical and save on space in the garden! Would love to see some more ideas for climbing plants such as spaghetti squash, watermelon, acorn squash and some more. Your garden looks really lovely and beautiful. I love just going out in my garden, listening to the birds, seeing all the life in there. Its a calming effect, which is why most refer to this as garden therapy. Looking forward to my chickens coming in later in June! Happy Gardening!

I am using your garden planer and it real helps, since I am a noob at gardening, but I have a question concerning crop rotation - program shows you warnings in next year plan for rotation which is great, but if you plant in succession in the same year it doesn't! (for example if i have early potato bed (march till July), if for august I choose to plant other plants it doesn't show rotation warnings... This feature would really help though! Thanks for videos!
@GrowVeg7 жыл бұрын
If you’re wanting to rotate crops for a two-season garden, or one where you are planting a lot of follow-on or succession plantings, you can do so in this way: After you created your Spring plan, click the New Plan button and then select to create a Follow-On Plan. The year will default to next year but you can simply change it to this year and give the plan a slightly different name. The crop rotation system will then work for your fall garden too.

You could put lots of cardboard down then build raised beds on top. That would help to suppress re-growth while giving you an opportunity to grow.

Loving you demos n basic instructions..I've lots of raspberry red n yellow..but im unsure when to prune or if they are types that grow on 2nd year fruiters. Some have died n are sprouting from bottom...Any advise im gratefully before I kill them xx thankyou xx
@GrowVeg5 жыл бұрын
My advice would be to cut out all old canes right back to the ground level, leaving only those new sprouts alone so they can grow on. If the raspberries are autumn-fruiting, i.e. they crop on the current season's canes, then they should fruit this season. But if the raspberries are summer fruiters - i.e. raspberries that grow on one-year-old canes then you will get no fruits this year, but you will know to leave the canes to grow on for fruits next year. Hope that helps. But cut them back now anyhow (assuming you ar in the Northern Hemisphere).

@GrowVeg4 жыл бұрын
I don't grow them in my garden as it's too cold. You can grow them in the greenhouse here. They need supports for the sprawling vines. And they must be fed regularly with a high-potassium feed to encourage flower and fruit formation. Make sure pollinators like bees can reach the flowers too.

I do not have a Green thumb like My Precious Mom, May God Rest her soul, but I try to plant flowers and vegetables because I love them all.

@GrowVeg5 жыл бұрын
To keep pests off tomatoes the only real option is to grow them in hoop houses (large ones or smaller ones) or in a greenhouse. Or under netting. Check out other possible tomato pests here: www.growveg.com/pests/us-and-canada/plant-problems/tomato-pests-identification/ And potential tomato diseases here: www.growveg.com/plant-diseases/us-and-canada/plant-problems/tomato-diseases-identification/

The Garden Planner has undergone considerable time and investment from developers and gardening experts keen to produce a product that is genuinely useful to gardeners. We've added many new and powerful features since its launch, including companion planting, crop rotation and other features. Unfortunately all of this takes several employed full-time staff - we need to make a living, which is why we have to charge a fee for our Garden Planner. We think the Garden planner is a genuinely good-value tool for gardeners looking to make the most of the space they have. The thousands of Garden Planner subscribers seem to believe so too.
