Beautiful and useful video. Thank you!
Hi, very good info, thank you! How often to fertilize?
One year I raised 64 pots of vegetables and my elderly neighbor are well from my garden. Most containers I got cheap from a barbeque restaurant, but had to buy one 5 gallon container for cucumbers. I used 1/2 top soil 1/2 bagged compost. I ate a lot of veggies raw or stir fried quickly to keep nutrients. (I also bought raw almonds and made fresh almond milk twice a week.) Best thing about all of this was that my memory became much sharper even continuing for 6 months later after I had to move away and could not continue to garden. Still keep a bucket of bunching onions growing (now three years old) and smaller containers of fresh mixed greens planted about four days apart so I always have fresh salads.
Notes: containers NEED drainage holes; Miracle-Gro fertilizer — use per instructions 7 times then water very well with reg water the 8th time. It flushes out salts from MG; cukes & tomatoes won't do well planted together in the same container.
Thank you, I learned so much!
Nice ring
Awesome video! Very informative and clear. Thank you!

I just retired and wanted to do something different, 1st I got a small back yard, I mean 20-25' Wide X 100' if that, so any way I got the 'PLANTING BAGS", and I mixed some soil, some of the seeds did germinate but only got a fruit or two. So I started all over, and the 2nd time did not work either, so I did some research & I threw away the bags, saved the soil, and I got 5 Clothing Bins w/lids. I drilled holes about 1'' up from the bottom all the way around, no holes underneath on each bin. Then I drilled holes on one of the lids, and then I SIFTED the soil, once done , I put 1:1 ratio cow manure, w/new shifted soil from new bag, peat moss, then I put 2 hand fulls of lime, 5-5-5 fertilizer. The 'SOIL MIX" came out very AIRY and SOFT, SHIFTING is Important, so I am now grow some cucumbers, yellow squash, 2 different varieties of tomatoes. I used ONLY HYBRID SEEDS, it is my understanding they will produce just one generation of fruit and that is fine, but the most important reason I chose HYBRID SEEDS, is that they grow both MALE & FEMALE flowers, they are SELF Pollinating. That is MY UNDERSTANDING. Other types of seeds will grow more FEMALE FLOWERS thAN MALE BY 10:1 RATIO. I know it is late into the season, but w/Climate Change,. I water the plants 2 times a week, and after watering them, I put a 1/2 tea spoon of Fish & Seaweed Liquid into a gallon of water, and then I only pour that on around the plants' base. I think I might get about a 3-4 weeks of cool mild weather before the freeze hits here in the Galveston, Tx area usually in late Jan or Feb for sure. So I will see what happens. But am looking forward to planting early next year.
How inspiring and informative! I'm ready to get going on my gardening adventure. Thank you!
