Hi Kathy. Thank you! I am glad you found this video useful and informative.

Thank you Joyfilledbiscuit 🙂

Yes, it would work just fine doing it this way. You can also use a watering can and mix the two in it to water the plants.

Thank you. I am glad you found it informational.

It is all covered in the video.

Thank you! I am glad you found it useful.

Thank you, Rebecca for the perfectsuggestion. I actually have it growing in my Frontyard right now, and almost every year. It is perfect for front yard.

Hi Kelly! You are most welcome, and hi from USA 🙂

Thank you Feuby! Yes, I do believe this method can be used for more than carrot seeds!

Hi Taryn. Thank you so much. I am glad you found this video useful.

Thank you Hannah! Glad you found it useful!

True, 🙂, free and zero efforts!

Thank you so much! I am glad you found this video useful 🙏

What a wonderful idea Hadley! Thank you so much for sharing this recipe of an all natural fertilizer. I hope others will read it too and try their hands at it. I do have docks growing in my yard, and this may be good use of them in my garden. I am glad to hear you experiment with flowers went well! I try to have flowers around my garden as well, and it has definitely helped with pollinators. This year I have a lot of ladybugs, and the wasps took care of all the cabbage worms. It's amazing to see these little creatures doing so much work. Age is no limit when it comes to gardening and you are proving it well. Glad you feel good inside, like your younger self! I truly appreciate that you shared your story here!

Thank you Milo! Truly appreciate your support and hope you found this video informative.

Hi Dana. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and I am glad you found this video helpful. I have answered in reply to other comments on this video, how often we need to fill bottle to use with olla. I will try to tag you on some of the replies so that you can find it easily.

Thank you JC! Very kind of you! Glad you found it lovely and useful 🙂

@@TheGardenTinkers Yes Sir 💜 This is what I'm trying to get my front yard to look like. With fruit trees and bushes and a mix of "traditional" garden veggies mixed in where it just looks beautiful and most people will just think it's landscape. Such an inspiration!!

@JCC_1975 your enthusiasm is great and it shows even through your comment. I am sure you will achieve your goals! Good luck!

Thank you so much Avinash Pandey! 🙏 I am glad you found this video useful. Your comment always encourages me to do better.

True! I got it 🙂

Hi Jed. Thank you for sharing your thoughts here, and I am glad you found this video informative. Hats off to your efforts for dealing with clay soil for such long time. It is similar for me, clay soil everywhere. I repeat the practices in this video every year, along with several other ways to add organic matter to my garden, and finally I am starting to see a difference. I think the trick is to not give up and keep at it.

Thank you 🙏 I am glad you found this video useful and informative.

Thank you, That one guy! Positive words are always big encouragement. I am glad you found this video useful and informational.

This is awesome to know, and makes perfect sense, as the water warms up, it's density will reduce, which will force it out. Wonderful! I have to try this! In fact I am going to do it today. Thank you so much!

Thank you Tina! I am glad you found this video informational and useful!

Yes!!! That is great to know. Thank you for sharing!

Thank you Pat, glad you found it useful!

Thank you so much. I am glad you found this video informative 🙏

Thank you so much!

There is no rule about where to put it. You can definitely put it next to the plant. I put them in the center because that way the water is evenly distributed in all directions, in case I decide to grow more than one plant in same container.

I don't think you are doing anything wrong. There are three possibilities, 1st your olla is brand new, terracota soaks a lot of water when it is brand new, it will stop doing this after some time. You can also take the olla spike out and soak it in water overnight and then put it back in your container. 2nd possibility, it is really very hot where you live. When it is too hot, water also evaporates from the soil faster. You can slow this evaporation down by mulching your container. 3rd possibility, your olla probably broke, there could be a crack in it and the water is leaking out fast. You can take the olla out and inspect it, fill it with water and see if it is leaking fast from any side. If it is, and you recently bought it, you can return it and ask for a replacement or refund. I hope these suggestions help.

Thank you Rock and roll for leaving a review.

Thank you Rock and roll for sharing your thoughts!

Sounds good. Thank you for checking this video and sharing your thoughts about it. If it helps any, the trees shown in this video are doing great and thriving next to my garage wall, and the strawberries have made a nice patch now.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts 🙏

Hi there! Thank you for sharing your thoughts on this one. I do not use pesticides. The major pest (if I may call them pest at all) that I have are bunnies, squirrels, birds and rolly pollies. Bunnies did a lot of damage to my blueberry plants this year. I have put a bird cage around the blueberry plants such that it would stop the bunnies but won't bother birds. It has helped with the bunny attack. I try not to deal with birds and let them steal berries. I know eventually all these berry plants will grow big enough to make fruit for birds and us, and we can share it. This year there is a hawk in our neighborhood and seems like it has helped control the squirrel population. But usually I would cover a plant with row covers if I want to protect it from squirrels. I lost a lot of strawberries to rolly pollies this year, but only because I was traveling and was in and out of my town a lot during that period. Next year I will pop the berries on top of straw or a mesh to control this damage. Rolly pollies are important part of ecosystem too because they help a lot with decomposing dead plant materials. So I don't use any thing harsh against any of these pests.

Hi there! Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts here. I am glad you found useful information in this video, and my best wishes for a beautiful gazebo covered with fruitful grapevines.

Most welcome! Thank you for checking out this video.

Olá! Most welcome! Thank you for checking out this video and leaving a comment!

Welcome Lena! Thank you for checking out this video!

Thank you so much for sharing this valuable review. I hope it will help other people looking for more information on olla spike! I am glad your garden is doing great!

Hello, You can try to glue the broken ones by filling up the fracture with some fine baking soda (bicarbonate) and then applying superglue ('fast' acrylic glue) on this filled crack... it works for me also with cracked terracotta (clay pot)... By the way, I think using (unglased) terracotta pots as an alternative Olla works fine and much cheaper. OK, succes with the system

@@brudo5056 I’ve found an even better solution for larger beds - unglazed Terra cotta wine coolers. They were very popular a few years ago, now I see them fairly regularly at thrift stores and estate sales. Much sturdier, hold far more water, and no hole in the bottom to fill in. Just cap with whatever you have handy.

@brudo5056 thank you! Good advice. Next time, I will try it out if I can.

@danasully7385 please see what others are sharing about their experience with using these.

Hi Michelle. Thank you for your wonderful comment. If you suggest to wait a bit more. Some times plants need a bit to settle in. I saw maximum growth in my grape vine later on then in the first couple months. It would probably grow by August. Other perennials in my garden took even longer, for first two years they were just sticks, in third years they started growing.

Thanks Laura!

🙂

Love your enthusiasm. This is correct, many vegetables can be grown from seeds in store bought vegetables (such as tomatoes), or from the roots of store bought vegetables such as spring onion.

Hi Koji! Thank you for your kind comment.

Except that water bottle has a ton of bad bacteria in a matter of days 😂😊

Hi Stephen. I have put the link in the description for these.
