Stop Wasting Money on This + Kimberly Ferns + New Guinea Impatiens + Mukbang + Soil / Garden Queen
Story time on soild and success in containers

[@MyGardenNirvana]

I LOVE your channel. I know everyone wants the side hustle to make money, but honestly - I prefer watching regular home gardeners who are not necessarily sponsored. The opinions and feedback are more honest AND more relatable. I used to watch another channel when they were just starting out, but now they are sponsored and you can tell! What happened to gardening for the love of gardening? Sponsors are great, but can a channel be sponsored and still be objective vs shilling ALL the time? I re-use soil too, nobody is replacing soil in nature… it gets refreshed and such… so, that is what I will do, lol

[@GardenQueen]

"THAT PART" Sponsorships can be useful! I get requests all the time! BUT it has to align and normally that means pushing products! We will for sure expand on this topic!

[@wootertooter45]

Such a gray point … no one is replacing anything soil in the forest 🌳 💜💜💜

[@marjoriemoto]

Hi! I do not change out my soil but instead add compost and fertilizer. I think your channel would be a perfect candidate for sponsorships.😊

[@MitchellKolosin-qm4vf]

I agree

[@GardenQueen]

Thank you so much ❤️ That's a way to do it fir sure!

[@reddog40]

I also agree

[@evahaynes4438]

I use to change my soil every time I planted my containers. I was spending so much money on soil, I couldn't afford a lot of plants. When I found out how to amend the soil, that was the BEST advice . Now I can buy more flowers. THANKS.

[@JaneWade-oz2nm]

Keep doing what you're doing Garden Queen...I love the fact that you care & educate viewers on saving money... Whether the numbers reflect it or not, you are flourishing & thriving...WORTHY OF SPONSERSHIP...YOUR WORK IS NOT IN VAIN!!!😇❤️💐

[@GardenQueen]

Thank you so much ❤️ It mean so much to me to help others!

[@user-sn1jt5sh2x]

I absolutely agree with you My garden Queen❤ What my grandma did those days? They did not have fertilizer, tone this tone that, they use earth soil, they use tea when we're drinking , Right now ,we can not have competition with others ❤ what God provides us, we use❤ now with this economy mess, we have to watch our money❤

[@GardenQueen]

Hi everyone I missed you all! I hope you all are doing well! I would love to know if you change out your soil everytime you plant up a container❤ Comment below and let me know

[@JameMc.-zj3rk]

Hi Garden Queen, I do not change out my soil every year. Bit, this year, I had roses in containers that had black spot.. so, I got rid of that soil. Other than that, ai typically buy the same plants and will reuse my soil. So glad I’m not alone in this 🤗

[@debbiekopy530]

I generally reuse the soil …🌷

[@kaychaney6102]

No I do not. I’ve only been gardening for about 40 years.

[@reddog40]

Hi Netea,I do this I use earth dirt,I use soil from containers that sat all spring through winter and I use chicken compost for my fertilizer.Ill adda little when I start a new container just mix it through, what I have experienced is if you compost and it sits bugs and worms will get into those pots it's the way the echo system works so for me it makes a better soil.I also used plastic containers in the big pots and it's a win win bc pot isn't heavy, I agree with you!

[@verleneperry-newburn905]

Reusing my soil saves me money and time.

[@linakhoury6623]

Hi Queen🌺 .You arranged this container beautifully with these pretty plants The white impatiens are going to be amazing . I do not change my soil every time I plant up a container . Have a wonderful day .🌺🌻🌺

[@MitchellKolosin-qm4vf]

Thank you have a wonderful day as well!!!

[@GardenQueen]

Thank you ❤️ 😊

[@georgiacinq-mars1899]

Not only do I reuse soil, I pull plants from the garden. Ostrich Ferns, Wild Getaniums, sedums, volunteer trees, CREEPING CHARLIE ( not kidding) it’s pretty and makes a good tea. I shop Lowe’s clearance, I cut the bottom off and put the plant in a raised bed, when it recovers it goes in a container.

[@GardenQueen]

Same!! You are so amazing! Reading this you reminded me of my neighbor!

[@terrasuber9236]

Hunty!!! I’m all about saving a dollar, a quarter, a dime, a nickel, and a penny!! Now, disclaimer I have only been gardening for 3 years so I am not a pro or expert by any means how and ever I watch tons and tons of gardening videos on KZbin…. Reuse my soil and I may add a little new soil. But I have been told when you have earthworms in your soil that it means it’s good. Every year I take my soil from my old containers there are earthworms in every single one of them, so after 3 years in, reusing my soil has done me good. I appreciate all of your knowledge and advice…keep doing you, O love your videos!! And I love when you say my good good girlfriend 😂😂😂cracks me up everytime!! I love you Garden Queen!!!❤❤❤❤

[@GardenQueen]

🤣🙌🏾 Girl u love to say my good good girlfriends! Anybody can have a friend but a good good girlfriend Just hits different 🙌🏾🤣💕 That is so correct when you have earth warms in your soil you have created a great environment for them! I can tell you got this!!!

[@marthastevenson4580]

Garden Queen I’m so happy you posted on KZbin ❤ today

[@GardenQueen]

Thank you so much! 💕

[@teresalimon4070]

I watched you because you’re authentic, don’t ever change that!

[@bobr9895]

I do not change all my soil. I take out the depth of the new plant, put in Espoma Plant tone mix in a little then plant. I use miracle grow in my water and wa laa I'm done.

[@GardenQueen]

Exactly 💯 the way to go!!!

[@shesinthegarden4490]

Hello!! I have been gardening for 15 +years and I always reuse soil. I replace what they remove, I top off as needed but absolutely reuse soil. Consider this plants in the ground don’t get a replacement

[@mrs.m4702]

Hello, Garden Queen. You are appreciated 💕!

[@GardenQueen]

Hello Mrs M! 💕🙌🏾 Thank you so much

[@user-sn1jt5sh2x]

My Queen Mary, I look at my garden, I see what God put plants in my garden❤ there are weeds or not, they have a beautiful blue small flowers❤ Do you know what I did, I put Those plants in the pots, they are the most beautiful lush plants with blue flowers all over. Every time I see that plant, it brings me joy I thank God for this beauty ❤ I don't care what people says❤ It is a gift from Heaven ❤

[@linebourdeau4995]

I agree with you 100%. Mother nature does not have access to land and sea compost, biotone, and all those nonsense these advertisers keep pushing. The only thing mother nature has to work with are leaf mold and worm casting. And she does a great job in the woods. Continue to keep it real garden queen.

[@rdaisy2b131]

Lol, your friend is going to get you. I don't replace my soil when I plant in ground; I amended it. Same for containers. I top it off, turn it, amended and plant.

[@GardenQueen]

My good good girl friend called just a laughing♥️ She knows it's all in love 😍

[@sheronjervis]

Hey, Queen. I add small potting containers and mulch to mine, and I definitely reuse my soil.

[@GardenQueen]

Ain't nothing wrong with that! That works as well ♥️

[@user-lm3ye4db7v]

Replace the soil each time.....$$$$$$$, I don't think so! I'm in agreement with you. And your green and white container is so crisp and cool feeling for the coming hot months ❤❤

[@loriwhite7835]

I don't charge my soil either. I do exactly what you do. I'm so glad that you are talking about this. Thank you. Your planter is just lovely. I think some planters are just overdone and are not to my taste. Have a blessed day 🙏

[@GardenQueen]

Thank you so much and Have a blessed day! Simplicity is gorgeous!!!

[@user-rn3qb8ce8v]

Queen , the way u do your gardening is relatable and inspirational. Nobody can afford all new soil every year and it's completely not necessary , and P.S. if someone wants to sponsor you it's because u have a lot of followers who love u and your personality and your love for gardening that comes through in every video . I am pretty sure no matter what u r doing with your soil u have the followers u will get the sponsors . You keep doing u I only wish I had found your channel sooner. And I love the ferns !!! Looks amazing!!!

[@GardenQueen]

Thank you so much! I really appreciate that! 💕

[@mayswafford6072]

Love the container. Simple & beautiful. I reuse my container soil & amend it.

[@GardenQueen]

Thank you ❤️ That's the way to do it!

[@ruralangwin]

I put plastic milk jugs in the bottom of my huge containers! Brilliant! I also use horse manure I get for free to extend the potting soil.

[@Joemnc]

I’ve always been told to use new soil, but I’ve got some really large containers and it was getting expensive. So, the last few years I have not been changing it out and the plants look just as good. I think she’s right that you may not get soil sponsors but you have to do what you think is right. I think some of these plant companies should sponsor you because you have a gift and can make any of their plants dazzle in your arrangements. I also think a company that makes those watering cans (whatever they are called) should sponsor you too.

[@marthastevenson4580]

7:32 Great point it’s a total waste of of money 💰 I know one KZbinr who always has problems with reusing soil or using Pine bark mulch. in containers. Now that your saying that she did a video where she stated verbatim “ I just found out you don’t have to replace your soil” I can see her turning those containers into failure so she can prove her point.. Let’s wait and see especially because she has a Responsibility or endorsement with Espoma😂

[@jillianleblanc9370]

Good morning thank you for Sharing your beautiful garden lovely video

[@mrs.m4702]

The Kimberly Fern arrangement is simply gorgeous❤️!

[@GardenQueen]

Thank you so much ❤️

[@walkinginheavenlyplaces4103]

My First couple of years of gardening, I actually threw away my soil, but learned I could amend my soil. I use fertilizer, bone and blood meal, worm castings, compost, and perlite as needed. This is for my veggie garden.

[@user-qy1fu5qg2p]

Thank you, thank you. Thank you for this video today. This was the first year. I did not use brand new soil completely. I have about 4o 16 inch pots that are planted up each year and this year I only topped it off with about a fourth of the tops With new soil (Cost). Everything is doing great except for my petunias the heat is killing those. I will think long and hard before planting any more petunias from now on even though I love them. Glad to see you back on the channel. Have a great day the oklahoma gardener😊

[@steverdms]

I"ve got some pots with soil that is over 15 years old. I add fertilizer/food once or twice a year. I don't waste money on new soil every year. That's crazy. That's not what happens in nature so why do it in pots. Loving this video. Tell the truth girl! I love it!

[@rebeccakidder1397]

Gorgeous container! I’m like you Queen, I don’t change soil, and I do use starter and long lasting fertilizer. Ad companies are missing out if they don’t sponsor you!

[@reddog40]

Ok well now I'm back to comment on the beautiful hydrangeas you had on the potting bench and I absolutely love love impatients my grandmother had those in her main garden bed every ye they where like bushes! And she had ferns in the back of them so I have to say this container is just beautiful and it brought some wonderful memories back! back!God bless you🕊️💚 and here's to the soil reusers👏👏👏😂

[@barb9181]

I reuse my soil but each year we add plain old compost to it and mix well. We can tell by the weight of the soil how much to add. It should not be too heavy but not mostly peat and too light. Since doing this we have saved money, had great plants, needed less commercial fertilizer. I have a great garden gardening in a zone 3 (we only have about 3 and 1/2 months of summer so we need to hit the ground running to have good color.) Reusing soil as long as you have no disease or pests in it is simply good for the environment and isn't that what gardening all about? Gardening as a competition must take all the joy out. Can't we be kind and just support each other? Learning from others successes and failures speaks to emotional maturity. Wishing each of us a happy summer where we can each learn from our successes and failures.

[@wootertooter45]

You and your friend are correct . That being said … I make my own money and knew this before you made this video and am soooo glad you did 💜🌸. This year has been experimental. I have embraced no dig , purchased different potting soils , garden soils, and a BUNCH of compost . Soooo expensive!! Next year will only purchase compost . I have one pot that has soil that no one knows how old it is, lol. I just add bio tone and top it with compost . Everything in it is amazing ❤ some of these companies have made gardening into something it was never intended to be , so sad . Queen , you keep on doing you 💜💜💜

[@brixandblooms]

I agree with you. They are making a marketing decision on who is going to push consumerism. I love your channel. Keep up the good work.

[@chrisby911]

I love that you save us money. I live in AZ and wish I could plants some of the containers you whip up. 😍

[@AS-lm9xm]

Thank you for sharing. I too dont change out y soil unless necessary.

[@ruralangwin]

I really like when KZbinrs visit independent garden centers! Those big global box stores turn me off. Also the PW and M######ia brands are extremely over rated. In supporting local independent garden centers we get professional knowledgeable staff, local advice and plant stock that is locally grown and seasonally appropriate. I support soil independence! Thank you Queen! Pro tip look for soil and fertilizer at yard sales!

[@lakeishasmith3569]

I don't change mine out unless it's root bound 😂 otherwise I add compost and fertilizer too❤

[@TeresaStAmant]

I do not do a complete soil change unless the plants have a disease or. Infestation. I use compost and organic fertilizer to do a refresh on the soil

[@GardenQueen]

Love it! ♥️

[@GreenswithEnvy53]

I don’t replace soil! If it has roots in it O cut them out and refresh slightly, might add some sand for better drainage, love what your doing with your channel

[@payton8613]

I reuse any part of the soil in the pot that hasn't become part of the root ball. This is usually only a small part. Then I augment with compost and fertilizer, just as nature does with dropped leaves, skeletons and droppings of animals, died back foliage. The only time I will toss it all is if the plant, when removed from the container, has encompassed all the soil with its roots.

[@margaretmossell8678]

Reuse soil add amend with manure compost add slow release fertilizer. That is it.😊. No schleping plastic bags of soil ,breaking my back and all that.

[@linhmoberly4493]

Agree with garden queen ❤. I used to change all new bags of soil with each new season…( lots of you tube channels did that ..🤔 ) And I just followed them blindly. Not any more…. Specially for Annuals, they last only till October in my zone. Love ur arrangements.

[@GardenQueen]

Thank you so much🙌🏾♥️ I save my soil and reuse it🙌🏾♥️

[@mtorez3960]

Keep doing what you do. Several of the gardener’s I follow, I assume they’re getting the majority of the products from sponsors and/or from their family nursery. 😂

[@devonstillsmilin]

Let me just throw my 2 cents in…..whomever you get your containers from should definitely be sponsoring you! Effective immediately!!! Second sponsor should be Osmocote….Girlfriend you can be real heavy handed with that! 🤣🤣 All ❤️ No shade😊

.75 cubic yard of Scott's potting soil at Walmart is about $2.47 a bag. Just in case you do need additional soil. It's a deal.

[@roslynholcomb]

I don’t change out my soil unless there’s some type of major infestation or something. I mostly put annuals in containers and I use a lot of fertilizer for them do changing the soil makes no sense.

[@GardenQueen]

Thank you so much ❤️ total nonsense

[@lovegardening4652]

Hi Queen.. no I don’t buy new soil every year. I’m with you. As far as sponsors.. so many sponsors could benefit from using you (I.e: new hose, garden tools, plants, etc.) not sure why they aren’t reaching out? It’s their loss because you have such a great following. You could promote propagation tools, seed starting kits, self watering planters, etc. Im so disappointed to hear that they aren't reaching out. I absolutely value ALL that Ive learned from watching your videos.

[@gardengypsy70]

Jim Putnam a 20 year nursery owner & former landscape owner reuses soil. James Prigioni promotes filling the ottom of very large containers with sticks and such they breakdown & feed the soil! It sounds like sponsorship may lead you down a path that’s not true to who you are, so if you want to serve your community( which I believe you do) then you need to let the company sponsoring you be informed you aren’t willing to do that. You can do both it’s possible 😊

[@everythingbeautiful58]

That person is having difficulty believing that you are "able" to do what you actually do. Theoretically, you may be dealing with a Samson & Delilah situation.

Gardening is not about how much money you spend, but how to bring beauty to and through nature. I love your garden. Don't allow any negative vibes to enter your garden. Is it a place of beauty and peace OR is it a look at me and what I did place? Let it go and keep creating BEAUTY!

[@cathyhatfield5340]

Is the purpose of your videos to get a sponsorship or is it to share your knowledge of gardening? Many gardeners do not have that big budget and appreciate your saving tips! I bought lots of soil because I was starting over after a move so I had to fill my pots . I do use soil over if I used it to start cuttings or what ever I have dirt sitting in small pots I dump it all together and let the sun sanitize it! Everyone should do their own thing based on needs or budget. That person was not honest so I question her character just saying😙

[@GardenQueen]

The purpose of my video is NOT to get a sponsorship! I totally think we need to expand more of the conversation! But would I turn down a sponsorship if it worked for me and met my values! No.. More details coming soon on this!

[@MitchellKolosin-qm4vf]

This comment is interesting for so many reason. 1 Garden Queen deserves a sponsorship. I would have thought Monrovia would have sponsored you. 2. Anyone who knows the business side of thing know that if Garden Queen had a sponsorship she would be able to put out more content. 3.) I also believe because you are so knowledgeable in Gardening you know tips and tricks it helps us save money. I have saved so much since I started watching Garden Queen. 4. Also your friend I don’t judge her character I just think she didn’t care about the containers after her event. She just did not want you to know you were right. Great video
