Thank you for sharing, so far your system is the most practical & easy to assemble. I'm a working mom and just started with our balcony garden. God Bless you ma'am, I'm from the Philippines.

I bought 6 food safe buckets from amazon. For the false bottom I bought 10.6 inch plant saucer drip trays that fit perfectly. I have the false bottom sitting on 3 empty beer cans. It looks really good. Good video Thank You

Thank you ....from jamaica...one love

Love the lid trick! I currently use inverted 2g buckets in 6g buckets, but i will also try your method for comparison.🙏❤️ BTW i use a slightly larger fill pipe so that i can insert a hose nozzle for hands free fillup

Wish you would put camera to the object instead of

13:39 ... I'm not saying anything... I'm... not. Even if I want to i just... wont 🙂 Anyway, nice information in your clips. Cheers!

That’s an impressive plant for just 3 weeks. My tomatoes never look that good. What am I doing wrong. I get tomatoes to flower and fruit but it’s like these plants are so delicate I have to be on top of it daily. They always have thin stems, one or two fruit sets per flower grouping. I use the same bone meal and fox farm amendments on potting soil, and generally grow from seed. Am slowly getting a feel for patterns that are not good and changing my practice. I saw how much bone meal blood meal worm castings in a 4-gal pot? That you amended and wow I thought too much but obviously I was wrong. I’m going to up my amendments to my 7-gal grow bags and see if that works. I also use cheap calcium magnesium pills from a pharmacy, grind them up to a fine powder and do a teaspoon per pot, it doesn’t kill the plant t but it was an experiment figured the mychorrhizae will turn the elements into what the roots can absorb. Never used the salt, but will also give it a try. BTW, I am practicing a cross between the “back to Eden” and permaculture concepts in a small quarter acre yard. The hardest part literally is because I live on Guam, the soil is mainly 8-12 inches on top of coral. So forced to use raised beds for most garden veggies. The local varieties of eggplant, pineapple, pole beans, wing beans, papaya, avocado, and a whole assortment of the more exotic fruit grow well, but veggies like tomato, romaine, carrots, kale, broccolini, pepper, zucchini, cucumber, sweet onions, etc really do better in raised beds, grow bags. However I’m experimenting with hanging pots for tomatoes which remains to be seen how well it works here.

Excellent video! I am new to this and have been trying to get up to speed for next spring. I really like your method because it is frugal and effective.

I Really Like Your Ideas 😊❤ Have Beautiful Day. Blessings 😊

Nice video! Very quickly please... how many seedlings are allowed in a 5 gallon bucket? Thank you for sharing.

I loved this video. Bakeries and delis will give you free buckets, just fyi. The bonus to them being free is that they are also made of food grade plastic. Thanks for your inspiring video!

Changes I'd make.... Screening or a cap over the intake, and a piece of screen over the overflow to keep bugs out. I'd also treat it more like an Earthbox, in that I'd mound the soil above the bucket's rim and cover the soil with a plastic sheet with X cut for the plant to stick through. This keeps weeds from growing, keeps rain from flooding and overflowing your fertilizers away through the overflow hole, and the cover also keeps moisture inside your bucket instead of letting it evaporate out the top.

Sorry too much explaination at the beginning

I love the easy concept. Explanation was excellent. Question: should there be a hole in top of support bowl or support bowl with open side up so the rag makes contact in water by sitting on bottom of bowl to wick up water? Otherwise it seems like rag will be diverted from being in contact with bottom of main bucket.

Hi I'm enjoying this video of Purple tomato dwarf got a question for you I heard that in your dwarf plants you don't have to prune your suckers is that true thanks for your video very encouraging to see your plants

My fav is the string in jug method, i use twine and its perfect

So appreciate your video! Thank you kindly!❤

Just turn the bucket around!.

Thanks so much

Great ideas, thanks

Thank you, C an do attitude ❤❤❤

Water mix miracle gro is better then the granules version blessed as was difficult your so wonderful for that is all

I'm pretty sure that Doctor Earth's fertilizer is not vegan It has bone meal in it.

Very helpful video ❤

Thank you for sharing. I am curious though, what are those pebble looking things in the cups?

Hello from the UK. Wow a great experiment and most noticeable in the results! I have to ask generally, isn't your soil in Hawaii, being volcanic rich?

good experiment. one thing - that heavy mulch of wood chips, those are wood chips, right? they surely cause competition for your plants. were it more decomposed, not much of a problem. the microbes will attempt to decompose these and microbes need nitrogen to do attack the carbon. equation is simple, if there is too much nitrogen, microbes will be hungry for carbon. if there is too much carbon, microbes will need nitrogen - competing with the plants. this is the carbon to nitrogen ratio - ideally no more than 25 carbon to 1 nitrogen (imagine composting - too much carbon like wood shavings or chips means a long time to decompose if you don't add more greens which gives you the nitrogen)...blessings

Improvement: for plants that need stakes, cages to support plant (tomatoes) drill hole for fill pipe in center of lid. Then run fill pipe wild too any length you need then use fill pipe to attach plant to pipe. This will work with any wicking bucket design. I glue a pipe fitting to bottom of bucket for extra support. If you use her design you can drill a hole in bottom of support container and run pipe thru it Don't glue pipe to fitting so you can remove pipe to change dirt. Dooesn't matter where wick hole is. I use a metal garden stake instead of plastic pipe, especially with indeterminate tomatoes. I think the "stake" is 1/2" by 8 or ten feet long. You can use a pipe cutter ($3- 5.00) or saw like she has or hacksaw. Well worth a little extra time! If your fill pipe is long, you can use a T fitting and elbow to create a fill point any where along fill point

Mahalo for the inspiration. I love your channel. What type of bag did you use to protect your tomatoes outside?

Do you use the AA batteries for the Moistenland? How many days/weeks do the batteries last? Thank you

I don't think the experiment is fare enough. Even If you keep the same fertilizer and environment for the plants it varies. So to be fare enough you should have at least 3 plants per category and include the control with no amendments. But it was fun to watch i appreciate your time and efforts. Cheers!

Mahalo❤ I love your video because you show everything I'm old and it seems like all the new videos everybody just like speeds through them I like that you show everything😊 good job❤🎉😅🥳 when I lived in Hawaii.. since I wasn't Hawaiian.. in the early 60s I went to school in a quonset hut on hickam Air Force Base.. all my friends were native Hawaiians so they had their own School😂🎉❤ thank you for sharing your awesome talent! ❤️🌞🤙🏄🪂

Excellent tips and ideas. Thanks liked and subbed. I will be coming back! Why is the bucket for the Moisten Land covered in foil?

Is there ever a problem with root-rot…since there’s pretty much a constant supply of water?

High nitrogen will benefit the plant, but nitrogen doesn't translate to more fruit and in fact will limit the number of harvestable vegetables.

Question. Do you have to hold the cloth up when you add the soil? I dont understand how to moisture gets all the way up to a seedlings roots if the cloth is so far down in the bucket.

Very nice video, even if you are not sensitive wear a mask to keep yourself healthy as we don't want plastic dust in our lungs. I use a small solder tool and melt holes but like that graduated bit.

I wish your camera was positioned lower so that we could actually see you as you worked.

Hi!! Thanks for all the helpful info! 🌱 For the outdoor plants and reservoirs, how do you keep mosquitoes or other pests from entering your water sources?

I live in hawaii as well and worried it's too hot to grow carrots but I'll try again in thr fall

Nicely done ma’am ❤

Sick video 🔥 I just ordered some purple reign seeds, I live kapahulu hopefully they do as well as yours 🤙🏾🤙🏾

Awesome idea. Thanks for sharing!

What about soil?

thank you so much! vacation or not, this is going to change my whole gardening game.

Thank you for this video !❤

great video. I am having a Hawaiian hideway nook in the front of my cottage garden in the Uk and I am looking for traditional flowers and vegetables and Hawaiin gardens of every day people. It was interesting to know that you have a lot of small gardens and have a lot of pot plants, only the front bit of ny house gets the sun and i want it to be a pot plant garden. very nice to see your small garden. there are certain plants I would struggle to grow here, but we can do tomatoes and cabbages, so that is easy and reflects an every day garden that the Hawaiians actually use rather than these fantastic botantical gardens. I would like to use my front garden as an educational garden

Thanks

KY USA I am 81 been gardening all my life. No operations and no meds needed. Will try more container gardening with water system. My soil is not very good here and gets worse every year. Heat, and chemtrails ruining all gardens . A tunnel house would be a solution. Stay healthy and safe!
