  1. Alot of the secret to successful containers gardening is the mixing! People want to take the lazy short-cut way of just dumping a bag of something in there to fill it up. Danny, do you use Super Thrive? I soak roots and seeds in Super Thrive some times, before planting.

  2. Bet you could sell those saw-briars! 🙂 I would take the roots if you mailed them to me! And be happy to pay the shipping and some $ thrown in!

  3. Have you considered painting the black planters a lighter color, to keep them from getting too hot from sun? I buried mine with mulch half-way up. Just set them on top of the ground and mounded up the mulch. The added bonus – earthworms thrived in this! I had probably 30 earthworms under every big black planter the same size of what you have.

  4. Not trying to take over your channel here (LOL) but you're covering all the subjects that I like in this video! 🙂 Right now I'm experimenting with plastic 50-pound feed sacks, it's all that I have to work with. I turned the top half outward so it showed white (not the label). Then two days later, I decided to redo them. I pulled them back up and cut off the top half, then triple folded and stapled the ends. Then triple fold a small "lip" on the top so there is a slight handle/edge to pick them up and move with. Although the original bottom half of the feed sacks are sewn, and the stitching may rot, I don't plan on picking them up to move very often, if at all. This also allows drainage, if the right soil / dirt mix is in there, or holes can be cut / punched a few inches up for added drainage. I find this is excellent for potatoes, ginger, and shallots. Will also do garlic this way for the first time this year. This year I'm trying to grow acorn squash in the feed sack method. So far, so good, maybe try watermelons and some other things. I have NO NUTRIENTS in the ground here; so it's "spot" planting – with a lot of prayers that God will bless the efforts to be productive.

  5. Would you make a video on how you save your seeds thank you and y'all have a blessed day God bless yall 🙏

  6. Your land is so beautiful. Looking at your dirt, I'm thinking we can harvest what you are using from our woods. A tornado came through years ago and nobody cleaned up from it. There are heaps of rotted trees and limbs, leaves that are not necessary for feeding existing trees. Hook the garden cart up to the ATV and go!

  7. just a tip for 5 gallon buckets. I work at a Mexican restaurant. we build up way more buckets than we can use from sour cream that comes in. I take the extra and use them in my garden as well. It dont hurt to stop by one and ask for the manager. most times they will be happy to give them to you just to get them out of the way.✌❤

  8. Your doomsday preaching about city water makes people believe they can't grow vegetables, which is not true! I've grown a healthy garden for decades! if you want to take the time, chloride and other impurities will dessicate out of the water if left standing for a couple of hours. You might want to check whether nitrates aren't getting into your drinking water from your own cow manure and your own septic system before you go preaching. There's runoff from everything, even your own tractor, 4-wheeler and vehicles you have, so you might start preaching about that too. You pick your topics carefully and what suits you, leaving your own issues out! Many of the premade soils are made of municipal waste and you'll never know what's in it, including the one you used….another commercial.

  9. I love that phrase you said about the green peppers like to hold hands lol. That's a good one..

    Your dirt looks absolutely gorgeous Danny and Wanda

    Nice it's going to rain real soon.. plants love a good rain well especially in the old days when it was much cleaner..

    Now for some relaxing time by the pond.. maybe you'll even catch a few fishies

    Love you Danny and Wanda you have such a wonderful place..
    Great you're showing an helping people learn how to grow good stuff
    Many Blessings 💖💖💖

  10. Informative video. I raise rabbits and the manure makes a great cold fertilizer which I just top the beds yearly and let God do the rest.

  11. I grow everything in containers like these. I don't like using heavy soil, or even heavy compost, so I mix a LOT of peat moss in with it. It helps to make it much fluffier than that from the very start. I used to add manure for that purpose, but can't anymore, unless you have your own that you know isn't contaminated. You could also use bags of hardwood mulch, pine bark mulch, or cypress mulch if you can find it small enough. It is usually a little too large at first but will compost down in the tubs over a little time. You can use sawdust, too. You might need to add some nitrogen if you use sawdust immediately. Or wait a few months, or a season or two. Believe it or not, Mittleider gardening method uses straight sawdust, so can't see that mixing in a bit for fluffiness can hurt if you balance it in the beginning. Grass clippings have high nitrogen, so do coffee grounds. You just have to balance sawdust with nitrogen until it composts down in the tubs over a few months. Commercial bags of peat moss are not as environmentally bad as a lot of people say. Some of it is farmed, or created, not from ancient deposits, so check it out.

    Sorry this is so long, and I'm glad Dannie does well with this, but I'm 68 and like to work in easier "dirt." LOL. So I fluff it up. Some of you may like this better if you do that. My recipe, and many others online: 1/3 peat moss, 1/3 topsoil, 1/3 cow manure compost, maybe a little more peat if needed to make it fluffy. He mentions Hugelkultur in this video. Some people add some wood and large wood mulch pieces in the bottom before adding soil. I have started doing this after years of just using soil. Trying that to see if the wood will hold some water like a sponge.

  12. Yo Danny!
    You should look into a used cement mixer attachment for your tractor !
    You would save a lot of time preparing containers

  13. So IMPRESSED!!! All the way down to, knowing about EVIL CHEM TRAILS… I follow Robbie & Gary too. Robbie says growing beans help correct the soil if there is a problem…DO U AGREE that BEANS are a SOIL CORRECTER??? ThanQ💚💚💚🌾🌾🌾 🪱 🪱 🪱

  14. You're not going to get nitrogen in that mulch until you use fresh manure underneath and Industrial Hemp on top.!
    You want better soil than that roll it over manure fresh manure. Grow hemp on top industrial hemp..!
    You don't have earthworms in it get them down at your bait and tackle store and throw them in there..!

  15. Hello from Washington! I noticed your covered box next to you. Is that a mini greenhouse? I desperately need something here that is not going to blow away.

  16. I went and got some mulch that they were giving away free where the loggers will put it out where anybody can have a free I put that in my garden and in my Greenhouse it produce smoking mushrooms if you barely bumped him they'll give off a toxic smoke it's a mushroom that grows I had to throw away a lot all that Mulch and get it off my property it cost me a lot of money so be very careful of what you get it can literally kill you and your animals

  17. I love those mineral tubs…. Do take alot of dirt/soil.. LOL…. What to do if only have city water… I do catch rain just not enough… Jun2022 100° temp in south GA n no rain …. Yes sun is too I intense….. My east side plants still too Sunny for them … Love show

  18. I see you're doing the same stuff I do, so maybe I'm doing something right lol
    And you're so right about peppers and maters liking to hold hands. Plus when they're close together they shade out weeds and reduce dirt temps , helping to hold moisture in. Good stuff 👍

  19. lmao, you guys would crap if you sa w the size of my worms in kasas city..mo. lol, there seriously 12 times bigger, they look like snakes!!!! 5-8 in long and 3/4 round, 1st yeaar gardner here, letem do ther thing!!

  20. Love your channel man. Lots of use ful info. I've only gardened 7 years. So anecdotal. Small town b ut lots of chlorin e and fluoride in our water. I use it to water all my seeds and seedlings. I think this fine as you don't need much ba c teria or organic matter yet. My raised beds have lots of broken down ( mostly rabbit shit) organic matter. After transplanting I water in and water as needed for a week or so. Once they show growth it rain only. Works great for me

  21. I just realized whereabouts you're located. I have family who lived in Wiggins, MS for many, many years. You just call it what you do… God have you good dirt! So use it. 😉
