Robbie. Your channel is entertaining. Would love to tour your garden. I'm just down the hill from you. 🙂
I just love watching your channel and I am so glad that you bring the birds in and they get to eat. In our area we’re in the middle of sweet potato growing and almonds and I try to keep all chemicals away from the garden & the house and we have toads and hummingbirds and tree frogs and lizards so I don’t want anything happening to them they eat a lot of bugs too. Thanks again for the fun videos!
Lol.😂 I have a new computer. figured out the volume. I can hear you loud and clear now my Dear. It s a beautiful feeling when we grow our own veggies, watching it grow and knowing we helped it by giving it lots of Love. by making our own soil and watering systems. And there much more delicious also. Tastier😋 your corn is really coming along. is Kitty helping you today? The wildlife knows where Paradise is over at Robbie and Gary,s Place. We have saved so much money on doing the Totes on chairs on our balconies. Win Win Win. Totes have been the Best for us. so much fun.
…Unless you have pesky rats who eats everything down to nubs. 🙈🙈🙈 One even chewed his way through the tulle to get to the plants. BUT I did manage to get one of them!
I'm hoping for a successful fall and winter garden. Nothing really does well here in the summer. I have never had so much trouble gardening until I moved to this climate. BUT I keep trying, and I am learning.
We're hitting 115 today… middle of another 10day 100+ heat wave. Blossoms keep dropping off my tomato plants. I'm able to harvest a bowl of cherry tomatoes every other day or so; so I'm grateful. Found your channel a couple of months ago. Made compost tea to feed my plants. They really like it. Cherry tomato plants are almost 8ft tall and though struggling with the heat, they keep growing, flowering, and producing the yummiest little tomatoes. Thank you for your enjoyable and informative videos. Question: how do you get all those worms in your totes and pitchers?
What a wonderful way to observe "mishaps". Thank you for being a positive light for those of us who struggle. Some youtube channels have "perfect", lush beautiful gardens. Those are nice and I enjoy seeing those, but it can also make me feel "inferior" as a gardener. So, back to making soil 😉 and at least having some food success along the way. Thank you
I wonder just how many more edible plants we can propagate from cuttings ? 💚…cuz that’s truly empowering and cost efficient 👍🏽
115 in Nor Cal today. Ugh. Can't wait til this week is over. Robbie, can I compost leaves with aphids?
Yay for nice tough green plants even on very hot days. Yes, we have had some extremely slow growing seedlings from bought raised garden bed mix. We have done well over-all and love our Vego beds the most. We have totes from 2 years ago that are still doing well. You are good with your compost and ever-learning. I love your wide range of wild-life ! I never use pesticides because insects and nature rule and balance each other out. I let my wasps be as they help in caterpillar-hunting off of the tomato plants. I enjoy nature and insects are awesome in every way. and fun to watch and learn from. Gardening is awesome and we learn and grow along with it. I love your enthusiasm. The Veggy-boys are the most awesome farmers who harvest from their acres upon acres and sell produce in their own market. I am a back-yard gardener so your garden knowledge is helpful . Thanks. Yep, it is 110 now but was 115 earlier.
Covid 2020 and its onset provided me with the blessing to meet you Robbie. Because of you, our hummingbirds are happy, fat, and healthy. I'm composting in place because husband liked the green grass (though he is more onboard now!!) and now we're not just growing food for novelty and fun but for sustenance. I have learned so much from you. Thank you very much for always sharing every little thing!! 🥰😀🙏📿
Thanks for all you do. You have such clever ideas all around. You are a therapy channel ! I am still very new at this…limited space, but I learn a nugget with every video from you and Gary. I also enjoy the nature and refuge you provide for so many critters …land and air. I admire your purest approach to getting food for us and keeping the balance with man , sharing kindness and space for all the critters that have lost their natural habitat/ home. You are providing such resource for our friends of the earth and WITH THAT, You deserve a wonderful harvest ! Greatly appreciate you passing all this on. We need this more than ever in our lives .
I also appreciate the boost to keep moving forward . It is always a bummer to see something start life ..you get wicked excited to only find the next day your plant is gone. Especially my zuch! I can't seem to get that right.
Stay healthy,
Deb
your soil is the most beautiful dirt i haver ever seen!!!!
I'm new here and so glad I found you…
Oh my that's hot!!! I just started a new job, I'm trying to adjust to my new schedule, but I hope to always garden, you're so right Robbie my Mexican sunflower fell over and I was a little sad, but I put in in my compost bin.
Thanks!
Thanks!
Check out all of your papaya trees 😊
I agree Robbie, I buy miracle grow and last year I thought I was buying m.g. Because of colors on bag and I didn’t read very good, and it wasn’t acting like usual so I got fish fertilizer and collard greens tea and they perked back
My sugar baby watermelons grew and matured and looked good but when we cut into them, they were so full of seeds that there wasn't much fruit to eat. Do you know why this happened? I grew them in totes and large pots.
We bought soil this year from a local company who makes garden soil, what ever we planted in that soil did very poorly this year. The company we buy from takes in all yard debris so there is no telling what ends up in the soil we buy, it is the second time we bought from them and it destroyed a season of planting, not going to do it again.
I appreciated your update so much. This is my first time doing container gardening. I’m making lots of great soil. I haven’t been up to par so I’ve been binge watching
Such an awesome garden with diverse plants and birds~👍
Thank you for sharing this video~🤗
I seem to be located not far too from you – same temps, same watering woes. "It's not nice to fool Mother Nature" is a commercial I remember well! I spotted some plastic chairs by the side of the road on my way home from work today. If they are there tomorrow morning, they're mine and I'm going to try the tote method. Thanks for all of the education!
Oh Robbie its has been so hot we've been over 100 for weeks and the last two days 114. Right now I'm just trying g to keep my plants alive. If they die I'll be making soil!
Gardening is good for the body and soul…studies show it.😃
Thank you for changing the way I think about my garden! When I see brown leaves on my tomato plants I’m excited! I know it’s more to add to wherever I’m making more soil. I’m getting older and I’m currently in the process of moving, because it’s time to downsize in my life. Instead of packing things in boxes, I’ve been buying cases of totes and have been packing everything in totes. I know that all of those totes will become my new garden as soon as I am done using them for moving. I’m so excited about starting my new garden! Thank you for sharing all of your awesome ideas with us!
“Garden “🪴? No dear , you have a jungle !!!! Lol 😂 Wow !!
Very inspiring ….
I’m getting an itch to plant but I’m from Wisconsin so I think it’s too late to start now … perhaps 🤔 next spring ….Sept 6, 2022💐
Hi Robbie, great topic. Since it’s so hot here it’s hard to find vegetables to grow in my containers. So I toss black eyed peas in. They tolerate the heat, are nitrogen fixing, make great compost, they are attractive. And I read to use peas to test for those nasty chemicals in purchased soil. They will sprout but fail shortly if StayGreen or whatever is compromising the soil. BTW, black eyed peas are 99 cents for 1 pound at the dollar store. Cheap cover crop.
First time gardner here. Just harvested my sugar baby. It was a failure. Outside had a soft yellow spot and tendrils dried, so I harvested it. Cut it open it was grainy and full of seeds (barely had a bite), semi sweet flavor. Was it over ripped, heat issue, or did I over water it ? I had trouble with spidermites too..
I did a pitcher compost thing and the melon seeds sprouted!! Can I somehow keep them until spring and have them grow??
Perfectly timed video for me! THANK YOU! I took some mint cuttings to grow mint in the house this winter. They grew beautiful roots in water, but when I put them in potting soil, the mints died! That started me questioning everything else in my first year veggie garden. Hearing you talk about win-win really gave me a new perception. I'll see what I can do with the cool season plants and focus more on making good soil that won't kill mints.
I wonder if the squash that didn’t produce anything- if it was primarily male plant?
Yea— layering pots is the best- enjoy your season!
I have this creeping grass that gets into everything and takes over! I wish I could kill this grass- burn it if something! It’s in most of my raised beds(50)!! It’s not in all of my containers thank the lord!
I love the pitcher idea!
Hello Ma'am, I never have enough of your videos, bright ideas and garden tips. I suppose many could take a leaf out of Robbie's book (some are already doing so with Tule, irrigation tubing and so on), which make me smile. I am in need of an advice from you just now. I am following your tote gardening system to the letter and I have nice zucchini growing. We are in tropical Mauritius Island and temp is about 24°C (75.2°F) just now. My problem is that my plant which has just started fruiting, is producing only female flowers with small fruits. There no signs of male flowers anywhere. What am I to do? Do I remove them? I know they won't mature. Please help. I am just now enjoying you latest video. Awaiting a reply.🌹🌹🌹
Thank you for saying you dont have to plant something in it. I have empty totes but no soil. Gosh I could have just been making my own all this time waiting. Going to start that now.
I grew tomatoes from the seeds out of my salad…3 big beautiful plants…got peppers growing from the seeds out of my dinner…I have learnt so much from your channel…all the dead leaves off my plants and all the leaves I have removed from my beg and today I weeded my front and some leaves like grasses go to mulch under the top leaves so I have collected them all and next will be the grass cuttings all going into a tall bin which I will water…wen the wagons come to empty the bins I don't give them mine. Its my soil for next spring and I learnt that from you Robbie…I've never used pesticides…
So true.Love the positivity ! Love your utubes ! 💞
When the plants gets infected.. fungus or a desease.. can we still use the leaves for compost? I pulled out a lot of cucumber plants last night and a couple tomatoes with dark and brown spot leaves
Your gardens are beautiful Robbie 🥰 I get what you're saying 👍💞
✨💚
Good point Robbie!! Make your own dirt.
Robbie I agree100%with you. Making my own soil is amazing.
Love you Robbie! My garden was so awesome because of you !😍😍😍
Thank you so much ! 😍
My tomatoes were just ok, I am using the leaves for my fertilizer inside my planters ! I live in Cleveland, so I planted my cooler vege’s in my containers ! My Bok Choy is awesome ! 😍 my cold weather cucumbers are awesome sun in the afternoon ! They are huge !
My lettuce and spinach are growing ! Yeah !
Thx to you 😍😍😍😍!
Keep kool ! Thanks for everything ! 😍
– pesticides not in my garden as well ! 😍😍😍
They had 1 gallon plastic food grade containers made in America at Dollar Tree last week. I bought a lot of them for composting and food storage.
🎄Your garden is just sooooo pretty!🎄💕🎄💕
