    Just excellent. Thanks for taking the time and effort to share your find of Gardener's Store and your gardening experiences.

    Great video as usual John. I especially like the segment on organic pest control. I'm surprised Garden Supply Company didn't give you a promo code for us to use, considering such a great promotion of their business. I waned to ask if you'd ever thought of selling your soil combination to others. You stress that you have perfected the combination for mineral rich, nutrient dense soil. The kind that many of us can't find; nor have the time to put together ourselves. You seem genuine about helping others and honest; I'd buy from you. I know you sell seeds from time to time, have you considered selling your soil combination? Would the fact that you use other brands in your mixture be an issue? Thanks. ~ Shilonda

    Hey John, you didn't post the link to the Big Bag Bed video.  If you want a better solution that doesn't self destruct after a few years (Jackpots are Nursery Quality AND made in USA), MUCH heaver material and stitching,  is 20" deep x 54" wide, then check out:  http://www.urbangardenfarms.com/jackpots-200-gallon-squat.  Also, please show video of BBB after 4 years of use so I can have a good chuckle.  I can provide some photos of Jackpots that have had palm trees in them for 15 years in FLORIDA, and still no sign of degrading.  🙂

    Could also use that first item you picked up for cleaning store or farmers market bought produce as well. Just load the items into it and take it outside to wash.

    "like the ladies out there" ? How about like some people out there. I have known men that don't know how to put things together and I am a female that loves woodworking and construction.

    That said those corners are cool – especially with the water spigot – and would be great for saving time.

    Those metal beds were cool and I could make those myself after a trip to my local Lowes. I could even change the color myself using my powder coating system I have here at the house.

    Some bats eat blood. 😛 I like the bat house, mason bee house, and butterfly house. I would mostly benefit from the butterfly house as I see them everywhere and I am also on some butterfly migration paths. Haven't seen any mason bees and not many bats but I know they are around so maybe the houses would help.

    I would like to see a video or series of videos on how to garden with little to no money out of your pocket. There are a lot of us just struggling to get by from month to month and are on disability or maybe handicapped in some way. It would be nice to see ways to get around this and how to obtain stuff (legally of course) by bartering or something ( which a lot of us do not know how to do).

    Always interesting to see what's out there. Thanks for getting us that discount!

    Fabric pots are great if you have a plot in a community garden. Easy and quick to setup; low cost investment to get a raised bed.

    haha, this is Awesome… I've been wanting to visit this place for ages… and now that I've seen this video i want to go there all the more… may have to make a trip some time, because if i can even begin to grow food indoors in winter, even as a snack or two once in a while, it would be Totally worth it… i live only 40 minutes from this place, but was never sure it was a place that would have what i may need… Definitely going to go visit the store now… just a matter of choosing a good day =)

    That's where I bought both of my flora light systems for growing my microgreens (sunnies, wheatgrass, etc.)!! I used to get their catalogue.

    I love Gardeners Supply company. I've bought several items from them. It may cost a little more but the quality is worth it. Thank you for the tour John. 🙂

    I'm a psychic gardener and I talk to plants!
    I recently made a psychic connection to my Tomato plant and asked:
    "Hello Mr. Tomato plant. Why haven't you produced any tomatoes?"
    The Tomato plant replied:
    "Because I'm a Weed, you idiot."
    I promptly pulled the Weed. Who's an idiot now?

    Absolutely beautiful store! Regarding the Big Bag Bed– you don't really mention the benefits of "air pruning" by growing in fabric in this video. Is there a reason?

    I just came across the concept and am quite intrigued. I'm considering buying some laundry baskets and lining them with landscaping fabric to make an "air pruning" container garden. However, I'm wondering if the benefits of "air pruning" are only really achieved effectively enough in individually-potted plants? Does air pruning occur significantly enough in larger applications with multiple plantings such as a barrel-sized container or raised bed? After all, not only is each plant NOT surrounded by open air in either of these types of containers, but there is more space for roots to spread out too?

    That said, I have already binge-watched quite a few of your videos and am wondering if this is why you don't talk about the benefits of air pruning very often? Have you experimented with air pruning and if so, what has been your experience? Did it not make a big enough difference in the health of your plants?

    Mahalo for what you do, John!
