Love this! Thank you, Lucy! I started growing food scraps in water on my window sills a few months ago and I'm amazed at what I've been able to grow. The keys are just leaving enough scrap when cutting to encourage growth and changing out the water everyday. It's so fun! I finally had time to build my compost bin and it started growing popcorn on it's own! My compost is beautiful and I'm so proud of myself and my plants babies lol. I love seeing people embracing gardening, not only for hobby and rationing, but also improving their own health and the planet. Love to all. Stay well and safe! ❤️
I love the fact that Kevin is on here im new to this channel but I've watch Epic gardening for a year now. He's awesome and inspired me to grow dragon fruit :)
I started growing in planters last winter (in Hawaii), so I've been growing 3 kinds of kale, swiss chard, and spinach. Since then I've had the side yard cleared and hope to expand. I found Epic Gardening 1 month ago and have been learning from Kevin ever since. My veggies are terrible as salad, but pretty good cooked. It's been a great supplement. TFS
I'd also check out OYR, Self Sufficient Me, Morag Gamble, Charles Dowding and Huw's Gardening channels if you haven't done so already. These different approaches allow you to adapt for your specific growing conditions.
Nice seeing Kevin make an appearance. Kevin is one of several gardening content creators that I have been following for several years now. If you want to dip your toes into growing food, consider watching his guide to growing microgreens first.
Young lady you have great topics and information so far been great and well said. I had bad experience with my trying a raise bed just believe it is much dryer and took more water My try with potatoes and I watered the raised bed probably 8 times more and the crop at ground level was 8 times better
I don't make any thing grow , But I do try to get there soil as best I can, I love manure added about 2" ever few years seems to be a great place for plants to live
I want to grow a garden but have a few questions/concerns: -I'm afraid that I'll take more food than my plants can keep up in growing; how do you know when to harvest and how much? -I'm from NYS but now love in FL where it's currently hot/dry bit it'll soon be blazing hot and humid and after that hurricane season; can a small garden even survive the FL weather and conditions? -Is permaculture better or tilling the ground because I heard tilling the ground is bad for soil. -Should I grow/rotate certain produce to be about to get nutrients back in my soil so it doesn't "burn out"? -If I make an indoor garden, will it attract bugs/pests in my apt?
I'm sry I'm not from the US, FL stands for Florida I guess? Check out Robin Greenfield, he's also from Florida and he turned his whole front yard into a garden and helps communities do similar things. Maybe also research some of your questions (Google/Ecosia, UA-cam etc). As was said in the video, check your situation, check out if the veggies you wanna grow are good for these circumstances. And then you'll also see which plant needs what and how long it takes until harvest etc. :) Have fun!
I personally would prefer higher raised garden beds (1m high or so), but that's up to you. Also there are different materials you can build raised beds with. Wood, steel, even plastics. Maybe do a little research what fits best to you.
Hope our current freeze hasn't wiped out your garden! Did you consider the makeup of your paper bags? This is a great trick in flower beds but I question the wisdom of putting ink and glue into the ground where I'm going to grow crops for consumption. Those veggies will potentially take up the chemicals used in the production of those bags. A layer of wood chips would deliver similar results.
I started my tiny patio garden this year, following the video you made about the front lawn turned into a garden and your Instagram stories about your own gardening experience. I must say that I love it a lot morr than i thought I would! Best tomatoes ever, and I got my first bell pepper today!
You should do a video on urban permaculture. ☺️
Sounds awful

Is it just me or when you watch these types of videos I get really motivated and excited to try and reduce how much waste I create
I just re-eat my food after the nutrients have been properly absorbed.

You guys are awesome! Thank you so much! 🤗🤗
Where did she get the raised bed kit? I need one of those!!
@Amy Sternheim thanks amy!
No you don't just mound up some dirt. Just get planting, you can research beds while eating the food you already grew! Just get growing
