So... I started a garden but I don't really know what I'm doing| Ep. 1

[@angelamuhammad2982]

Great job welcome to the gardening community. Be careful it’s addictive.😂

[@tgraham7194]

Once u see it can be done it’s definitely addictive 😂…. I’m sowing seeds now in the snow… something new for me

[@NettasNest]

Yep😂

[@nicolehudson809]

I completely agree, it's definitely addictive 😂😂😂

[@wcoastgardener209]

Hi! Dollar Tree for seeds also. They grow really well. They’re good seeds. I use to think they were not because they’re inexpensive but that’s not true.

[@BayouShugaGarden]

Hey 👋🏾 your excitement is soo contagious I love 🥰 it. Great job on deciding to take the journey. You got this Sis💚 most important you’re not alone there’s plenty of us out here to help and cheer you along the way💚

[@tinagillis6694]

Welcome to gardening! I absolutely loved this video❤ I’m new to gardening as well. You will love it and it doesn’t have to be perfect!

[@ticohilliard961]

Congratulations, Gardening is so peaceful. I wish you luck. A little advice. Look up when to plant certain veggies in your area (Farmers Almanac or your county extension office). Your warm season veggies may not make it in the cold. You can start some indoors. And they need more space. For example, one of those compartments will hold one tomatoe plant. You can grow in anything that will hold soil (milk jugs, soda bottles, plastic totes, cardboard boxes etc.) Reasearch which plastic is safe. Keep your carrots moist until they sprout. If they dry out at all they won't make it. Hand pollinate your corn since you don't have alot of them. Put them where they'll get the most sun. There's an app called Planter that will help with spacing, seasons and pest control, etc. HAPPY PLANTING SOIL SISTAH

I started 3 yrs ago and had some failures, but then to finally getting some more consistent successes. My gardening journey has made me so proud, and the things that I’ve learned along the way have blown my mind. Especially the things God was able to impart to me just from gardening. May God bless the work of your hands sis!

[@geaj4214]

All of the cold weather seeds you can start now I side. Cabbage, collard, kale ect hope this help.You can grab 5 gallon buckets to plant in a bucket garden. Then when it's time to move just load your buckets up easily 😂😂😂 I have done it lol I uses the cheapest dirt mixed with black cow manure and perlite.

[@amberslaton2819]

Girl, yes! I gardened the last two years and I've just been winging it. I learn a little more every year. I love spending time in my garden

[@GINAvsGINA1]

Let me just say I'm proud of you for growing your own food. Gardening is a lot of trial and error. Some things will go great and others not so much. Learn from it to do better the next season. Just an observation, the tomatoes and peppers will definitely give you heartache if you don't thin them out as the plants get a few inches tall. Each pepper and tomato plant will take up one of those pockets each. Trust me, from someone who made the mistake of putting 2-3 plants in each space. They will produce but it won't be much and the fruit will be small. No need to panic though, just budget out to get more growing containers. If you go to my about and get my email address and email me I will send you some grow bags to help you get a good start. Good luck on your garden journey and welcome to the community. 😊

Not sure if this has been said yet, but consider keeping the basil plant in the house or garage with a grow light until the final frost in your zone. Also, check the root ball and base of the basil plant. It might be more than one plant that can be gently separated by the roots and then placed in multiple areas of our garden.

[@brehasfaith]

Oh my! You all are so wonderful! Thank you all for the support and beautiful comments! I really appreciate having you all as a community. I'll be posting an update soon!

[@veejayham3366]

Hi lady, just happened to see your channel. Welcome to gardening. We all started like you. My only thing is to remember those little seeds grow up to be big plants. How many you can grow in a small space is limited. You may want to look up Square Foot Gardening to get an idea of spacing.

[@bbundy4183]

Welcome to the gardening community. Growing your own is a lot of work but sooooo rewarding. There is a KZbinr (A Gardeners Journey Homestead) she just did a 6 part series for New Beginner Gardeners. She has so much informative information. please check her out. All the best and do not get discouraged. Take it one day at a time/one vegetables at a time. Keep asking for help when you need it.🥕🌱 🥔 🍅 🍆

[@shweetpotato]

one thing I grow all year long is green onions, I buy them from the store, use the tops and plant the bottoms..I put straw around them in the winter here in Utah but they grow and grow and grow. CONGRATS on your new garden, I'm so excited for/with you .

[@DevaJones03]

Keep making videos letting people know what's snap eligible! I think that info is vital because growing the food is better than what can be bought snap or not

[@BlackTulip70]

This is my 4th year gardening. It such a wonderful feeling to see the tiny seeds that I planted stick its little green leaves out of the soil. Very additive, especially when it continues to thrive under your care. Happy gardening to you. Keep recording and having fun!

[@cindyaskew5331]

You can put leaves and sticks in the bottom of your raised bed . It turns to compost eventually. Plus, you will not need a lot of soil to feel up the bed

[@MeTimePlants]

I’ve been trying seeds the past few years. I haven’t been very successful. I have grown basil from seed. They definitely need some sun and lots of water…same with tomatoes. The peas and beans need something to climb, but I haven’t been successful. I grew some carrots last year. They take a long time and need a loose soil to grow right. If they start growing, you could put them in another container later. That’s what I did. Probably don’t use your plant food until you have little plants. Wondering what state you’re in. I’m in Florida. Good luck!

[@JoyAnn-ck8hb]

Keep going. Don't give up. Do you make gardening videos?

[@brehasfaith]

I'm in Florida as well! South Florida!

[@bammittwitharthurbutler]

I saw your video in these KZbin streets (new subscriber). Great, you learn as you go Happy for you !!!!!

[@AndrewDarland]

The whole part of a garden is most of us have no dang clue wtf we’re doing we throw stuff in and hope it works lol. The first year I followed planting guides… the next year I in fact did not. Goodluck it’s addictive very fast! and even if some things fail you can switch things up the following season!

[@kandyrose2149]

You can grow in buckets totes and other smaller containers that would be much easier to move. You can empty the raised beds but it’s lots of work and your plants will have to be moved to containers it’s a lot of work. There are many gardeners on KZbin that garden on the cheap. I to use my snap for some seeds and plants.

[@homesteadingwiththeLocSmiths]

Great job!! My wife and I just started as well. We’re nervous plant parents and that cold storm had us worried recently. We’re still here though and so are our plants 😂

[@dnice3242]

Remember this is a learning journey. Keep at it and you will do great.

[@tgraham7194]

Welcome to the garden community… keep in mind it’s trail and error Happy planting 😂

[@PoweFolkLiving]

Welcome to gardening! Tic Tok will have to get the same video we get! PeriodT 😂😂 Enjoyed episode 1! Keeping going 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@JamericaLife]

I’m the same way when planting. Congratulations 🎉🎉🎉

[@JamericaLife]

They’re going to get huge. You may need to buy a few more grow bags. Pails or raised beds…😊

[@lh9933]

Congrats on your gardening journey! I'm starting my garden again after 4 years & feel like a total newbie. My advice for a beginning gardener is to look up your growing zone by your zip code & find out your growing zone/last frost date. Then, go look up what you're growing & find out the best time to plant them for your zone/last frost date. Some of your seeds are warm weather vegetables (i.e. tomatoes, peppers green beans & basil) & might not survive if you get a frost in the next month or so. I just don't want you to lose plants because they were lost to cold weather. Wishing you luck & excited to see your journey!

[@mommymillionheir]

Gardening has been so much fun for me! I hope you enjoy the journey 😊😊

[@LivinginHopeNow]

U go girl! I can Not wait to start my garden! We all will B learning together!

[@nursenika3381]

Welcome. So proud of you for making this decision. Make sure you have a trellis for your pole beans or cucumber. Both vegetables climb and it’s really pretty when it get full as well.

[@Mallikkah]

Welcome to the love of gardening sis!! You are doing amazing!!! I have been using the old farmers almanac for years. Put in your zip code and they will provide the dates to start planting different seeds. Good luck and don’t give up. This is a journey😊

[@memefree3101]

Welcome! We all had to start from the beginning. There's lots of tips out there but I'll say a true green thumb comes from being observant. Plants have a personality and will tell you what they like and what they don't. Also journal your successes and failures so you can progress. I'm excited for you!

[@Mary_GrowWithMe_1964]

👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 You're doing Awesome Sis.💗 Welcome to the crazy world of gardening. Lol😂 IJK🤗🍃 Sending Gardening 🙏🏽 Blessings to be with You and your family on your gardening journey💞🌱

[@keturahlewis2974]

Welcome to gardening!!!! I tried last year and I wasn't that successful but I have planted new seedlings 3 weeks and they have started sprouting. So fingers crossed that they will produce this time for me. It's an exciting journey. I loved your video and I also subscribed. You got this!

[@georgiapeachnut2490]

Hello and welcome to the world of gardening. I don't know your grow zone but I do believe you should look into starting your seeds indoors since it's still winter. Please look up your grow zone before starting if you haven't already done so. Just ask Google and put in your zip code. Ive just subscribed and will keep and eye on you. Please feel free to ask questions🤗

[@hisandherbshighdeserthomestead]

What’s up lady! First off good job and video! Welcome to the garden community! You did a good job with everything and you should get good results. Don’t overthink it, it’s not hard but it does take some “know how”. Your compost/manure and potting mix is good. Where do you live? It may be too cold for some of the things you’re trying to grow. Just google where u are and your grow/hardiness zone. To keep this short, I’ll give one recommendation: get some plastic cups and start some seeds in the house. (Just in case you lose some to the cold) We’re posting a video tomorrow that should help you out with that. Come over to the channel and check us out. Again, good work!

[@feliciathomas281]

You can do it. Just don't overthink it. Also i am a frugal gardener. The one thing i have discovered during my years of gardening. Don't let the labels get you. Those expensive soils are just expensive. You can use a low cost potting mix and just put fertilzer in it and mix it in. Use a granular fertilizer to mix in and a liquid fertilizer to treat plants every couple of weeks. There are some really great websites that actually teach you a lot. Just research and you will do fine. BABY STEPS. Good luck nothing is more gratifying than seeing those seeds sprout grow and give you veggies. Then you will have the BUG......THE GARDENING BUG THAT IS.....

[@keandra9ify]

Girl you have two papaya trees in your backyard. That’s so dope!

[@gamingwithtinker7109]

What grow zone are you? I enjoy watching upcoming and new gardeners. Get that green thumb started! 👍🏼

[@zoshomestead]

Welcome to gardening. GINAvsGINA mentioned your channel. Those seeds are great. I’ve used them for years. 🤣 I have a backup can for emergencies. You are doing a great job. Don’t overthink it. Gardening should be fun and relaxing. At least it is for me. Don’t get caught up in name brands. Sow the seed in some soil and show it some love. Your video was very entertaining.. New sub 👍🏽

[@tinatriestoplan8316]

Love your hair! (I have the same style)😅 Like most are saying watch a ton of videos! Someone mentioned agardenershomestead. I also recommend watching her videos. She has a wealth of information. The main thing is DONT GIVE UP! In todays society we're all going to need to learn how to grow our own. Another tip: you may want to start some of those inside under grow lights. I dont know what grow zone youre in, but knowing that along with your frost dates will be your best knowledge to acquire. Good luch & have fun! So excited for you

[@donzellcooper]

Hey there, you are a beautiful lady and you are going to great on your first gardening. I hope your plants grow and don’t worry you got this.
