He is using the lecture and lab method which is college level instruction with wonderful and clear graphics to explain.

    I'm from Australia and I've just joined the retired brigade, and am looking for ways to grow vegies in a very small area as we're on a very small house block which is mostly paved. I just finished watching all 3 of Hollis' potato videos as I've never grown food before ever. We shouldn't have to worry about too much rain here in Australia, as we're in drought more often than not. It's amazing that these videos were made nearly 3 years ago, and replies and comments are still coming. Looks like you have a whole new audience now Hollis. The covid-19 is making everyone rethink their values, and I think stepping back and creating a lot of our own food has got to be so satisfying rather than going up and down a supermarket aisle and just bagging whatever, without a clue as to where its come from. I'll be a regular view from now on Hollis. Keep up the good work. You can tell that you absolutely love what you're doing. Cheers from Australia.

    Swap out your peet for coco. You will get better drainage. We average 4 lbs per 5 gal bucket. We use pretty much the same mix. Just that peet holds on to water to long. After we switched to coco we doubled our average yield.

I bought my food grade buckets at Walmart for $3 each. I buy what I can on sale, improvise with parts here and there. Nothing better for the immune system than being out in the fresh air and sun working on a garden... feeds the body and soul.

    Hollis & Nancy - I really enjoy your videos. I especially appreciate that you don't cherry pick "the best of" outcomes. My university degree was in an experimental science. If I didn't learn anything else than this from my college experience it was we learn more from our "failed" experiments than we do from the successes. You showed in this video series just how much potatoes depend on consistent watering and how quickly soggy soil can ruin the crop. Thank you!

    It looks like we are all rethinking everything these days, I am new to this and looks like a lot of folks are looking to learn what just a few generations ago was common not to mention valuable knowledge.
    You guys are ahead of the curb , especially now with everything coming down the pike. I just want to say Thank You for making these videos, and taking the time to really break it all down!

      This is an awesome method!
      Just keep in mind this is about an 85-110 day process, the amount of edible calories that come out of the bucket minus the calories it takes you to grow them, is not a huge net, and of course you will need regular calories in that 3-4month period anyways. If you really need calories there may be something faster to grow with that same, space, raw materials, and effort.

Gardening and Baking lets you see God.
    I once got all choked up at God's Perfection when I looked into Vermiculture!!! Wow!! The little worm helps us THRIVE, a worm is perfect and necessary... you just kind of see it all in nature.

    I had a miserable potato harvest 3 years ago, and it broke my heart because I only had those tiny 5 gallon buckets. Back then I only grew a single bucket per variety and had almost no potatoes that year! Now, I plant in 25 gallon pots and have no less than 3 per variety I grow. I grow 4 varieties each year, Kennebec white, Pontiac Red, a Large Russet and some sort of specialty potato I experiment with like an over priced exotic fingerling...Your videos have been a tremendous help and I appreciate the time you've taken to make them and share!

This year I'm shooting for 2 crops of potatoes! I think I can pull it off with my long growing season and hoop houses!

      Go buy some buckets get all the supplies and bring the kids over and put each kid's name on a bucket and show him how to plant potatoes. You can even bring the parents in on this. No matter what happens at the end of the season all the taters get split up evenly. Because one bucket can yield none even though everything was done correctly.

    Have you ever thought about using straw as part of your mix since you're doing it in a bucket and the should will compact and soil even compacts outside of a bucket probably worse depending on the soil but I use my soil mix, then the sead potatoe cutling on the soil mix then put enough soil mix to cover the potatoe cutling. After I do that I put 2 or three inches of straw lossened up then I cover with more soil. And as the potatoes grow underneath it compresss the straw first so the potatoes grow really good then they start compressing the soil mix more but the soil also stay looser so the potatoes can get bigger faster and not be held back because the soil stays looser just like a fresh tilled garden. This has always worked for us on our farm and at the green houses. Thanks for your videos and I love the way you all speak about God in videos.

    the second bucket had a lot more foliage which would direct the rain away from the bucket. Now I know when I do this...move the buckets to cover during extended days of rain!

    It's amazing what you've two have done with your yard!! Kudos to you both! It's great! Too bad more city folk don't follow your lead. I bet a lot of people have been inspired watching your videos though! The more we can grow ourselves, the better. We know where our food is coming from. And, speaking for myself, going out to the garden is visiting an old friend for me! Cheap, cheap therapy! haha!

      You might have to water them a little bit more. As often but saturating the soil more than he did. I'm guessing.
