    I find gardens so amazing. The fact that these beautiful, lush plants start out as tiny seeds just boggles the mind. Thanks for the tour. I watched the June one earlier, so I wanted to go back and compare with this one. I look forward to seeing the progression next month.

    “Brassacre” 😂 We’re in Virginia Zone 7a too! Your garden looks awesome! Really helpful to see how you cover your eggplants. Before you explained I thought, “why do her eggplants look so good?” Lol the flea beetles destroy mine every year

      Thank you! Unfortunately, the flea beetles STILL got under the covers or through some holes and have since demolished my plants 😭 but it did work really well last year!!

    I love your simple cover for your brassicas. What a great idea to use the arched metal rods, with bug net over it. You have taught me several things I didn't know, including eating cabbage leaves. Your garden is amazing!

    My Greenstalk hack is in the spring I unstack and plant out the pockets. I let everything grow for a month then stack them up. I get the best growth this way.
    I mainly grow flowers.
    It’s worth the time for me because I’m using them to grow in a narrow paved space along the side of our house.

    Hi Michelle. I dont have green stalk but i have a vertical planter that I got from amazon. I also couldnt grow anything in it. I tried strawberries and leafy greens, all stunted. This year decided Im going to plant all flowers in my vertical planter particularly nasturtiums. Very low maintenance and all edible. Similar to what Becky did at acrehomestead.

    I planted food in my green stalks the first year but I didn’t like it either. However, I have 3 and they make beautiful flower planters so that is what I use them for.

    I noticed a lot of other people with green stalks have been planting flowers in them. I have a different brand vertical growing tower that’s similar and I grow cilantro and lettuce in it on my covered back porch. I tried strawberries in it one year and they were stunted

    I've tried to grow strawberries in my green stalk for three years. They grow okay but I have few berries and the plants freeze and die every winter. I've had better luck with parsley which seem to thrive. This year I'm trying chard and kale.

    Love your garden. I harvested my garlic scapes this week💥 I haven’t seen any great produce growing in green stalks. For the price, I’m not convinced they are worth it.

  • @emmalouie1663
    @emmalouie1663 Рік тому

    my mother has rhubarb plants, she pretty much neglects them, the ones in the sun get better stems than the ones in the shade, they like water but are pretty low-maintenance, I harvested some a few weeks ago, It's probably that your plant has a smaller root and just needs more time to grow, it looks healthy though

    Beautiful garden! I feel like it’s late for peas too, but mine are coming along. I have green stalks also. I use 2 or them for greens; lettuce, kale, chard, spinach and herbs, they always grow well but I amend the soil each year and fertilize regularly. The others I’m growing onions in. Maybe try a liquid soluble fertilizer or amend with compost prior to planting. 😊

    I am on the struggle bus with my green stalks. I bought two. The first year I assembled one and nothing did well. So I figured there was a learning curve? This year I have both assembled. I transplanted kale into the original. Nothing grew. It just sat there stunted. The second on I planted with seed and it thriving! So I do t know: still confused. Maybe seeds just do better in them?

  • @meyergirl1
    @meyergirl1 Рік тому

    I think you'd really have to keep the greenstalk fertilized regularly. I have been tempted several times, but haven't really seen the point of them when I have in ground/raised bed garden space.

    I was really considering a greenstalk for my strawberry plants, again, I've seen other influencers showing great success. I'm having my strawberries being eaten by various bugs. Maybe I'll rethink spending so much money. Thank you for your opinion. And those few white radish were really pretty!

    What kind of potting mix or soil are you using in your green stalk?
    Do you use your fish emotion weekly?

    You may have said this and I missed it (adhd 🫣)! Where are the wire arches from or what did you use to make them?! I’ve been using the fiber glass ones and I’m not impressed.
