I’m afraid I might just keep driving. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Absolutely love the entire idea of Spring. For those of us who go through the seasons we tend to really appreciate seeing new life. The trees getting new leaves, all of the Spring flowers popping out of the ground, the grass turning green. The older I get the more I truly appreciate Spring & all it opens up & offers. Excited to see how everything goes with the 2023 season!!

Becky. You have taught me so much! My freezer is full right now because of you. I used to make 1 lasagna at a time. Can you believe that? Right now there are 6 lasagnas in my freezer. Couple of pasta bakes. Marinated chicken. 4 apple crumbles (not sure if you call them crumbles - or if it's what you guys mean when you say cobbler). There's loads more in there but I wont bore you with the whole list. Last night I made dinner for my family and I made enough so that we could all have leftovers today and managed to portion out & freeze 24 dinners for my 1 year old. The next meal I cook will also let me freeze a similar amount of food for baby! Problem is my regular freezer is full and now I have to convince my hubby that we need one in the garden shed!!! 😂 Thank you so much for your sweet videos!!!

Hey Becky,remember all lavender seeds need sunlight or growlight to germinate,so don't cover the seeds with soil.

Hey there … I just want to say a HUGE thank you to Becky and the folks at GreenStalk for this wonderful promotional offer on their 5-tier planters! I just purchased two of them! I found this channel a couple months ago and have marathoned my way through all of the videos since then. My husband and I just moved in October from our big-city home in Indiana to our 5-acre little dream retirement home in northern Minnesota, and I’m so excited to become honest to goodness homesteaders! I am soooooo motivated by Becky and Josh’s homesteading journey, and I’ve learned so much about cooking and bulk-buying and storage and having chickens … and now I’m going to try and be a gardener! Well, that is if winter ever ends and I can actually explore my new acreage! 😂 Becky has taught me so much already, and I’m so excited to have found out about the GreenStalks!! Thank you so much for your honest, fun, and real perspective on homestead life! So looking forward to sharing the journey 💖💖💖

Hi Becky, I want to order the stackable planter but I can't find the site. Please Help

[@ValentinaIos]

Hey Becky! I hope you dont mind a few tips from a horticultural farmer! I think the soilblocker is a grear idea! If you want to spend your time using in in the long term, i would suggest getting a smaller soil block size, for things that do not require as much soil such as salads, beets etc. It will save loads of soil and space for you! I little thing to mention, I noticed your habbit of pouring out a large amount of seeds into your palm before sowing. That is not a great practice, because if you have any moisture in your hands, then the seeds might absorb them, start germinating and when you put them back in the packet, they will die. This means that their germination rate goes down quite a lot for future years. Another tip for rosmary and lavender: their seeds are reeealy hard to germinate (which is why they are so cheap!) then take years to properly establish. You might be better going an buying a small rosmary and lavender plant, then taking cuttings from them to make new plants. It is sooo much easier, it is how nurseries propagate them. Even better, if you know anyone with some plants in their garden, then you can go and get some cutting for free! Hope this helps and as always, thank you for your videos and enthusiasm!

[@StephanieHuston]

I really appreciate these tips! I have been trying to grow lavender and rosemary from seed for years with no success. I'm off to take cuttings from a friend's yard.

[@ValentinaIos]

[@judithburke1539]

For any tomatoes and peppers you can get a larger soil-block form that will make a hole the same size of your current size blocks, so when the plants need more soil, you can put them in the center of the larger block to continue growing.

[@maxinestarcher4050]

Actually it appears she is using the large blocker. I think if you plant in the small you can up plant to the large as needed. I use both and enjoy the results

[@Megan9689]

She saw these at a convention in a past video so she knows, but doesn't hurt to remind her :)

[@littlebluecloud3433]

Hey Becky, I'm also a new gardener and 3 years ago I planted lavender and rosemary from seed and my understanding is both types of seeds need a cold period in the fridge kept moist (I used paper towels on plates kept inside ziplock bags) for a few weeks before they will germinate. Edited: I should have added that I was successful and thrilled as I now have all my lavender and rosemary plants growing and thriving in a south facing window in my office. I live in zone 2b so there's no way these plants will be perennial way up north here but I love them and so far so good. This was my hobby to reduce stress at the beginning of 2020, and it was truly a God send.

[@dianefultz4949]

That's also the way I started my lavender. It did great!

[@cynthiafisher9907]

So cool! I have been nervous to start lavender.

[@SARALOGGINS]

And after you start your seeds and have mature plants you can make cuttings. I made 150 cuttings a few years ago as a "test" and left it on my front porch all winter and the next spring I had 150 little lavender plants! All of them made it through the winter and were ready to be planted in the spring. Needless to say, I gave many away and sold some others on marketplace.

I'm in zone 10 and my yard gets full sun all day, so I think these will be perfect here. I'm really excited to get these and get going on my garden!

[@MissBetsyLu]

Good for you. Many blessings.

[@helene2737]

Hey Becky! Here in Sweden, many people sow vegetables and flowers outside in the winter or early spring.some seeds can be sown on frozen soil and sprinkled with a little potting soil. Either put in plastic bags with lids, add some snow and then put the lid on and put everything outside and it will germinate at the right temperature. You can also put the plastic change in a larger plastic tray that you have drilled a few holes in. Then it will be like a small greenhouse. the snow melts, the temperature gets higher and then you have to water a little if necessary and lighten the lid a little. Try, it is nice that you not need to have all seeds inside and its groing very well Best Regards Helene in Sweden

[@MissBetsyLu]

I tried something similar this year, I put seeds in bottom of milk jugs and set out while some snow still sits here and there. I confess I got the directions from a different uTuber.

[@desamecyra1]

Thank you, Helene, for the tip! I’ve heard this method described as “winter sowing”. I’ve not t tried it yet, (probably because we don’t really have winter, where I live) but I will, this year, with the stock (flowers) seed I found at Baker Creek. Happy gardening! Sabine

[@helene2737]

@@desamecyra1 yes, try it! It works realy good

[@Theaterverslaafde]

Just a tip: in school we mixed small seeds (like carrot) with sand. That way, it was way easier to sow spaced out

[@jimwalker76]

You can also mix the tiny seed with cornmeal. Cornmeal will compost.

[@lauriesmith7517]

You can also make your own seed tape for them.

Or mix with sugar. I read that in old gardening book. They said the sugar helps to feed soil life to get it off to fast + strong start.

[@arthuurwong49]

Is it really necessary to plant seeds in these tiny containers then transplant to garden? I know everyone does this but as I’m elderly & only do mostly container gardening in my 1, 3, & 5 gallon black plant containers recycled from trees & shrubs I’ve bought thru the years, I skip all the extra transplanting & sow seeds directly into these bigger containers from the start- why do extra 😂work ? My back can’t take it anymore ! 😢 everything grows great & I save on seeds - I use only 1 or 2 seeds per container- none of these plucking out the strongest seedlings & throwing the rest out - can’t afford the waste as I’m retired, on limited budget - swap seeds with friends & neighbors for more variety as well!😊

[@charmainemrtnz]

I have 8 of varying sizes. I bought extra top units so that I could break them down to shorter towers. I am disabled and can’t get down so I sit and spin (I have spinners) to attend to them. I created 12 towers of various units. It works ok for me. I plan to designate some to strawberries and flowers too.

[@anneliesemodeker2104]

Take a plastik-bag over the figs to have some humidity. At the start you cane use one pot for 3 cuttings. Put the cuttings at the edges of the pot. Ventilate from time to time. Fig-cuttings will grow like weeds.

One tip on the extremely tiny seeds. Put them in a white cup or bowl. Use a toothpick to pick them up individually when you moisten the tip a little. Don't cover them with anything other than the vermiculite. It takes a little more work but it is worth it.

Not at all sure how everything has withstood the insane weather we've had since I got it. Currently has broccoli in all stages, beautiful lettuces, green onions, a couple of experimental carrots, exquisite pansies that made it through last year's brutal heat, I think that's all. So sorry I missed being able to pick up several more.

hi becky, i use the soil blocker for 2 years now ( like you seen on nicole's channel) i love it! if i have an advice for you let a little space between them, you can have access more easily to the one who grow faster first 😉

[@nicholehillabush7211]

A little piece of advice from my couple times using soil blocks. Leave one block out so you can water. If you water over the blocks, I found the edges would eventually start to melt, and if the blocks melt into each other, I had roots growing into their neighbor's blocks lol. The air pruning didn't work anymore...

[@MissBetsyLu]

Oh that's a shame for you.

[@nancyhurt7145]

Wow, that soil tool was so fun to watch. I’m learning so much from you. I bought a tiny greenhouse that remains unused! I’m slowly learning. Thanks for all the time you give us. I truly appreciate it and don’t know how you do so much each day, and especially with a tiny baby!

[@hollybritton7255]

I've always wanted to try a planting block. At our house, whenever someone pulls up a carrot they have to put pelleted seed in hole or place a white rock in that space. Simple but works great for us

[@glennahoki6476]

Thanks for your videos! I loved seeing what you are planting. It's such a fun time of year!

[@LLAMA-LLAMA]

Regarding the Lavender, if they don’t germinate try putting some seeds in a ziplock style bag with lightly moist soil and stick it in the fridge for 4-8 weeks, then start them as you normally would. Thanks for the great video and the great deal on GreenStalks!

[@rockabyecayleigh1984]

I’m transplanting my tomatoes and peppers into bigger pots while I watch you! Thanks for the company :)

[@kezru1581]

So excited to see the progress Becky! Thank you for taking us along 😊

[@ChronicallyIllandCrafty]

I’m trying soil blocking for the first time this year, and I got some cafeteria type food trays from IKEA to put the blocks on. They were really cheap and seem sturdy, so I’m hoping they work out!

[@carolewarner101]

Very exciting! Congratulations on all the progress you've made on getting your garden in the ground this year!

[@michp.3816]

I've been wanting to purchase a greenstalk planter, and as soon as you provided this amazing savings, I got two (with the same base as you got). I'm so excited to grow in them. Thank you Becky!

[@theheardhomestead]

Got my 2 Greenstalks and spinny bases🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 I am so excited Thanks Becky that was a wonderful surprise ♥️ Happy Gardening!

[@ericsundbypersonal8479]

Me too!! I was so excited when she announced this! I also bought 2!

[@colleenbellscanadiangarden9180]

so looking forward to seeing how your garden grows and this is getting super exciting I get to start my first seed starts today up in Canada , I over wintered my peppers hoping that is successful too

[@coleneritchie5625]

Wish I could send you a picture of the beautiful GreenStalk that I had last summer. I planted the entire thing with petunias. It was a picture. When I was outside working in my flowers, I even had people stop to tell me how beautiful my flowers were. Actually, you couldn’t see the GreenStalk because the flowers covered it so well.

[@SunshineCountryChickens]

Looks great! I enjoy speding time with you Becky you are inspiring thank you!

[@MsCjgibson]

This was the video I needed today! I’m trying soil blocks this year and I’m sooo stoked you are as well! I can’t wait to see how everything turns out 🌱❤️

[@lydianorwood7777]

Hi Becky, I really enjoy watching your videos and look forward to new ones. Thank you for all the great tips and ideas. I ordered two Green stalk towers with the movers. Thank you for the discount codes. Looking forward to seeing more videos showing how to plant in them and what type of soil to use. Also which types of vegetables and roots plants are better suited for this type of container.

[@yukonsmomma3562]

Thanks for sharing your planting day with us Becky.

[@rachellelangheld6756]

Hi Becky, for our garden we use Woven ground cover or weed fabric and that works wonders for our raised beds and the pathways. We cover the whole ground with the weed fabric and then when the raised beds were in, we used the fabric on the top of our raised bed and then burnt holes where we wanted to plant, we burnt it so the fabric wouldn't split. makes weeding your garden more controlled faster and easier

[@natiaamoani7846]

I can't wait to see the progression. The garden and landscaping are going to be beautiful ❤

[@orchardhillshomestead]

You are so inspiring! Just ordered my second GreenStalk so that I can also grow all the things! So excited for spring this year!

[@sharonbain3694]

Becky you are amazing! Not only are you doing everything on the video but the number of angles you Shootings from must take a lot of time and effort to do!! I love your videos and thank you for sharing all you do with us 😍

[@carolyngregory9354]

I enjoyed watching your planting video today. I love your enthusiasm, planting your garden and preparing your harvest. Good job, Becky.

[@loriswain8140]

Becky, thank you for the great coupon code for the green stalk! I’ve been wanting to try them. This is my 3rd year to grow veggies and you’ve given me courage to can! It’s so much fun! I can’t wait to see your massive new garden come to life this spring! I enjoy your channel so much.

[@pattyhancock-williams7602]

I just bought 2 lovely Terracotta Greenstalks! I am so excited! Thanks Becky for being an inspiration to me to start growing my own fruits and veggies!

[@marie-francepoulaert8939]

Hi Beckie, very nice set up for gardening! Great job with all the sowing, love watching you, learning along the way. ❤ thank you!

[@djsgarden3361]

Nesturtiums flowers are good in salads. Peppery taste. I worked for a greenhouse for a few years, LOVED it. miss it a lot. It is so addictive. I soooo enjoy your gardening. I feel your emotions. Been there & done that. Prideful Planting. Enjoy🤩🤩🤩

[@rosaliecahoon425]

Still lots of snow here in parts of Canada but nothing more satisfying than digging in the garden and yards. Love spring time when the yard comes back to life.

[@EverydayWonder]

Thank you for sharing your time with us. Always an inspiration. I’m trying nasturtiums for the first time this year and echinacea. Happy gardening!

[@susanpettett1211]

I was wondering about the petunia seeds also so I looked it up on Google. It stated that they are very very tiny and very dust like. They even had an exclamation point at the end of that sentence probably to emphasize that they truly look like dust. That's probably why it's easier just to buy the starts that are already growing.

[@lavernfoy4591]

Just ordered 2 green stalks. I’m so excited to plant my green stalks with you! Thanks Becky happy gardening 👩‍🌾

[@PWallace23]

I'm so excited, this couldn't have come at a better time. I just ordered two plus the wheeled bases...super happy! Thank you so much for offering this!! :)

[@nessasbestdiy]

I am getting So excited!!! My gardening dreams through you Becky!!!

[@lindaplank5972]

I ordered my first Greenstalk! I can’t wait! I’ve also ordered Bareroot Strawberry plants! I want to say “Thank you” so much for telling us about the code as it save me quite a lot!!

[@teresahaman4212]

I found your channel today and just followed the link you shared and bought the 5 tier planter, base, and fertilizer! So excited to have a salad bar and flowers right on the patio. Thank you for sharing!

[@hdavis1291]

Thank you! Grabbed 2 planters, so excited to use them in my small garden.

[@marieesposito9145]

Loved the idea of the rolling salad bar! Ordered a green stalk and the rolling base,they have sold-out of a lot of seeds. Thank you for the coupon code. Never grown this way before, I am excited.

[@christianjihan8129]

Omg I’m soooooo glad I watched this video. I’ve been ordering a Greenstalk every 2 weeks. Thanks to this discount I now have my final two!! I have 6 total now. Black, Stone, Terracotta (leaf/original). This discount is too good, I might go ahead and order green too. I have a problem 😩

[@marysitaras836]

Thank you Becky, enjoyed the video as always! Thank you also to you and Green Stalk for the discount, I've been wanting these for a long time and with this price, I ordered 2!! So excited for the 2023 growing season. Blessing to you.
