my friend broke her hip badly and is now handicapped and can not bend down. i was given 3 plastic chairs like yours and will help her grow a raised garden. sent her your video. thank you you are an angel
Oh, that is so kind of you, please do help her set it up, it will Change her life for the better. I wish I was close by, thank you 😊 ❤️💕
I do all my tote planting sitting in a chair. It is just delightful to have it eye level. I can't thank Robbie enough ❤️🌱
I have also used plastic milk crates under my totes because I had trouble finding chairs. They work PERFECTLY!
@June Ramirez, as a physically disabled person, I want to say God Bless You!! I wish I had a loving caring friend like you.
@@1blondidea God has blessed me very much, I love giving back to others. We need to be kind to others.
I actually am growing corn in a tote. I have about 5 plants in there and they are thriving!! One has an ear of corn already. Everyone was laughing at me but not laughing now 😁 I have tote corn 😊🤘
That is great! I have corn just sprouting in a kiddie pool!
I am growing sweet corn in a container too 😀 I plant them early in June and they are going really good , i suppose...I have six in there! Sweet tote corn will be great! 😝
I planted two totes with baby corn, Tom Thumb peas and Patty Pan squash. I dropped the corn in the same hole with each pea. Three rows of three corn & 2 Patty Pan in each tote. No germination of peas in one but six peas germinated in the other. Corn was twice as big where Tom Thumb peas grew. No harvest yet though. 🌹
That is great news. How big is the tote?
@CLYNTHIA I'm not sure of the actual gallon size, but one of the biggest totes you can get. It worked great!
Im growing in containers on my balcony. Most successful zucchini ( ive had it outside one month and already harvested 3), cherry tomatoes , and butternut squash. All have given me tons of crop all ready and easy to grow. Im in missouri and even in the high heat this year these have been great. My least successful so far cucumbers and large tomatoes both picky on the soil.
I’m glad you said that about getting seeds from the zucchini by letting it set and continue to ripen. I have one that’s pretty big I was going to make boats out of, but I’d rather have the seeds!
Do both!
@@Charlotte-zj8rq I did! Tonight we had zucchini boats and set the seeds aside. I’m going to try them out!
Your gardening tips are super helpful, I am container gardening on my little deck & thanks to your channel my little garden is thriving & can’t wait to eat what I’m growing. THANK YOU SO MUCH!
I ordered some red runner bean seeds. When I went to plant them, I had 4 seeds in the package. I planted all 4 and only 2 germinated. So I have 2 runner beans growing with hopes of getting some seeds for next year. I'm really taking care of those 2 plants. I put up more shade clothe today, Needed it for all the TX heat.
So glad I subscribed just a few days ago ☺️ I'm in Florida and have 2 vegetarian sons. They love romaine and onions and now because of YOU and the potting ideas in buckets, I can start growing at home!! THANK YOU 😊
Last year, I had a volunteer Texas stripe watermelon and got five nice melons from it. I saved the seeds and have three vines growing. I save seeds from any vegetables that I’ve bought at the store and plant them. It’s already something I like and they’re free.
For those who do not have much freezer space, these vegetables can also be dehydrated with an affordable countertop dehydrator, popped into a mason jar with a moisture packet and then stored using no electricity. So if the power goes out (rolling blackouts) all the food is still good.
Excellent point! I dry some things too, just lately I seem to be freezing more. Thanks so much for that !!! 😊❤️
This summer is my biggest effort gardening! I have planted all of the above, but the tomatoes are determinate that I grew from seed because staking things is hard. Love your work! Thank you, for the encouragement! 🌹
"With Prices Soaring, Let's Get Growing!"
Amen to THAT!!!
THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH FOR HELPING US AND THE ENCOURAGEMENT 🥰😇💞
Black eyed peas work great in Texas. Buy your seeds in the dried beans in the grocery store.
Cool thank you 😊
Debbie they grow well in the summer here in Phoenix too! I had never grown them before, and discovered they are beans! LOL
@@customer5032 yes, bush beans an bery tasty.
I grow mostly pepper varieties with a few tomatoes for sauces. This year I’ve added cucumbers, zucchini and eggplants too.
You're so awesome Ms. Robbie. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I'm just loving it!
I was delighted to find seeds that I saved last winter from some candy cane peppers. I tossed them in a tote, and they came up! I don't know if the plants will also be varigated, but I am excited to find out! Little pepper plants grow peppers really fast, so hopefully I will get some. 😊 Also, hopefully they bred true... 😮
I said Robbie but it came out probably.
You know, even if they don’t grow true they could end up being better because they grew there, let me know how it goes 😊
Another useful video with so many great infos ❤️ Here in Greece not many people are gardering their own food 🙁 I have just started growing my own food everywher I can. It's so important, beautiful and psychotherapeutic too!!!
But I can't find all the varieties, its difficult 🤔 Here in Greece I can't find walking Egyptian onions...I have to get them from another country, but they are expensive 😐 but I started growing exactly what you suggested early in June 🤗 We like the same vegetables! Until now they're going really good everything I have planted, my green beans, my lettuce ( i have them in plastic bottles , hung them with wire on the railings of the balcony and give them the shade whenever the sun is full), my corns, my cheery tomatoes, my peppers, my green onions ( i cook green onions and eat them a lot)...
I had some failures but I have learned from them in the past years...
I am gonna write it again Robbie. All these usefully things you are showing to us with your videos must become a classroom lesson for our kids in school. This is the future!
I am a Christian orthodox, and do you know what our saints have said? That all the bad things will happen because man will not have love for the trees and nature. And that have said it 2000 years ago when the earth was giving everything to everyone.... So this must be a lesson for our kids, to love and respect everything around them, even earthworms!!!! Cause if they do that the earth can feed them and get them alive. And our ancients were saying "healthy mind in a healthy body". So we have to heal our souls first so our health could be better! And gardering our own food, believe that, it's helping in so much ways!!!!
So thank you for your treatment Robbie. You are my therapist, and you don't know it! God bless you!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Hi Robbie, great video, thanks. I sure wish I had your weather... my beautiful zucchini plants are green and blooming. BUT, every other day we hit 103-110 I swear and it's so hard on the 'fruit'. They wither and fall off. I'm hoping to keep the plants alive until it cools off a bit and maybe I will get some zucchini to enjoy. I'm ordering okra seeds (love them) and I received the red runner bean seeds. Those have been planted at the base of a mesquite and I'll let them climb up in partial shade.My walking onions don't mind our weather and grow really well. Red chard and kale do well in the heat thank goodness. Sure love working in the gardens and getting ideas from you. My birds appreciate you too! I'm growing finch seeds everywhere and it's bringing in new wild birds. Fun!
Super video!! I'm dehydrating tomatoes, then blending them to store in jars.
OH GREAT!!!! I use to do that with all kinds of vegetables, that is Great!
I’m a newbie. Want to get a dehydrator. Any tips please?
Dont forget sprouts!!!
What’s up
Robbie, you are doing a real public service. I get so many ideas and so much enjoyment from your show. MSM? Meh! Blessings!
Oh, thank you so much 😊 ❤️
Love you, Robbie. Thanks for the lettuce tips. And Freezing cherry tomatoes. I’ve got a purple tree collard with tiny leaves starting, purple sprouting broccoli seedlings coming up, I hope it’s not to hot for them now, I live in Mount Shasta, CA, zone 7b. I’ve got tomatoes, zucchini, peppers, cucumbers starting to get flowers. First time I have ever grown or eaten collard! Mostly I just eat it off the plant, but have put it in my eggs, too. I grow in totes and buckets. I use tulle and just made my fist placemat cover. I also love the birds and have made a few of your fountains. I feed the hummers, too. Lol I believe I now qualify as a Robbie and Gary groupie! 💖
I was just at Shasta Lake driving through stopped for night, visited the dam and was sad to see how low the Lake has gotten. We were told it had dropped a foot from day before. Our state is so hot and dry it makes growing difficult in So Cal where I am. I love watching Robbie since she’s in a similar environment and battles similar challenges successfully. I’m challenged by squirrels most of all but actually like the critters so the Tulle has been a great solution as it doesn’t hurt anything and still lets sun and water through. But I haven’t figured out how to keep them from eating my cucumbers and beans. How do you protect your climbing vine plants from the squirrels? If you have any solutions I’d love to know. Wishing you rain!
lol Okra is sooooooooo good....fried, boiled, soups, stuffed, you name it...I love it...
I will have to try it 😊thanks
Hey Robbie! I'm not a gardener - recently found you with your hummingbird fountain video. Your 5 gallon bucket set-up had me saying, "Oh! That's interesting!"
Tomatoes
Beans
Zucchini
Walking onions
Lettuce
❤️🌻🌺🌸🌼🇺🇸🦋🦚☮️❤️
Me too - about the Scarlett Runner beans. What I discovered is that in mild climates, the roots will over winter and send up climbers for next season.. They will regrow 2 or 3 seasons or more. . . unlike other beans which are only annual. Of course they will also start from saved seeds - and stay true. Love my walking onions too. My list would add Red Russian Kale. . . i've got great success with them and they give greens all winter in my climate. (But I'm in a mild climate - no snow).
Borers are killing squash in the Houston area. Im going to start over with every one of them in covered containers
micropore medical tape (stretchy thin medical tape) - you can tape it around the base vines of the plant to protect from the squash vine borer. something to try!!
@@annamaria54321 ~ Thanks, I never would have thought about that!
Fresh soil not from where the squash was growing, and cover right away.
@@annamaria54321 Thanks Ill try it!
@@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy Will do, thanks Robbie!
Probably have you ever grown center cut squash it has other names it’s very similar to zucchini not quite as watery kind of creamy actually. I was out picking some and I started counting to see how many more were coming and I quit counting at 15 or 16 and this is on three plants in a hill maybe four.
I have a huge celery, started from what I bought at store.
Nice one, Robbie.👍I'm growing more food and saving more seeds this year. I'm also giving plants to other gardeners so they can grow more food.🙂
I'm growing lots of winter squash that doesn't have to be processed to store.👩🏾🌾 Thanks for the tip on how to save seeds from a zucchini! 😃
Robbie, you ALWAYS teach me so much that always works with my gardening! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge!!🙏🏻
I love you and your hubby - I love your energy- I feel comforted when I hear your voice and watch your videos ✌️❤️😁 thank you… PS more kitty
Thank you so much for sharing gardening info in such simple ways. I've always wanted to grow food and also compost but thought I didn't know enough. I appreciate you so much!!!
Gary would love okra and tomatoes. If you have some black eye or pink eye purples. They go awesome with okra and tomatoes. Can't for get the fried okra. Lol God bless keep smiling all.
Why aren't radishes discussed more? They are so versatile. You can steam them and roast them like potatoes, too. It takes away the bite that a lot of people don't like. The greens are super healthy and nutritious, and they grow so fast. In a small container. Some varieties can be harvested in a month or something. When it comes to survival gardening, I personally love growing a variety of radishes. Thanks for showing us your awesome container garden :)
Potatoes are good to grow also
I made a broccoli salad for dinner yesterday and used a bunch of my campari tomatoes. I would have paid at least 7 dollars at the store. The seeds were free from grocery store toms last fall and it is still producing.
As Plan A I have a well-stocked emergency pantry which will buy us time to prepare Plan B. Plant potatoes, rainbow carrots, onions, black beans, peanuts, lettuce, and cherry tomatoes. Plan C is to use this borrowed time to plan and prepare an expanded garden. As a newbie, I am acquiring knowledge and supplies this summer and practicing some growing skills. You uncomplicate gardening and your enthusiasm is contagious. Thank you!!!!
I mention your name so much when I'm talking to my boyfriend about my vegetables, "Robbie says that....." LOL that he teases me. I don't care cause everytime I watch you I learn something new or you refresh my memory and instill that knowledge into my thick skull. Today you taught me more about all the romaine, buttercrunch, loose leaf lettuces and spinach I've got started. Some for cut and come again and some planted by themselves. I learned they will stay little in trays, dishpans and won't bolt that way. I'm using milk jugs I've got hanging on a wooden dowel of sorts, wooden pallet leaning against the side of the house and assorted laundry and swifter containers. I've watched you transplant them too. My spinach may have a harder time growing here in 10a but I'm too new to know better yet and too happy to care lol. Been saving rain water too since it's rainy season. I found a place in southern California for that tree collards you talk about so fondly. All I have right now is many huge elephant ear plants. I'm composting its dying leaves. I worry that that isn't enough or the right nutrients like kale would be. As I rattle on here, I realize that all I wanted to say is thank you and I hope you know that we love you, our teacher, our mentor. Thank you for the knowledge and joy you bring.
As a newbie with a tiny yard this was fascinating. However, to be honest, I had no idea about much of what you talked about. Maybe you can show us your freezing process, even the growing process as to how to harvest, collecting seeds, propagating, etc. That would be super informative!
I started gardening in July of 2023 I bought worm castings for $15 for a big bag today that same size bag is $25 it’s only March not even a yr later. I do have a worm farm but I have been composting in place feeding other plants now thanks to your inspiration❤😁
Oh yes the scarlet beans are so wonderful! I am growing those for the first time this year and I'm in LOVE!!! Great video Robbie you are always so INFORMATIVE!
I bought myself a dish pan and am planting some radishes but now I'm going to do beans . I love 💘your hat today
Thank you SO much for your very encouraging videos- I might even call them tutorials! Since I live in South Florida, my list must include Sweet Potatoes! Leaves sub for spinach, can be dropped into salads, soup, stews, & pasta dishes! Then, you are also growing the tubers, too!
Thanks for your videos they're awesome. God bless you and yours
Robbie it M and the littles…… now we planted 7 yellow and green squash plants and have only gotten 1 female. How does that happen?
Hi Robbie very good list I love romaine lettuce to on of my romaine lettuce went to seed I'll use them next year.
Ich bin begeistert von deinen Gartenarbeiten! Meine Gartenarbeit verbessere ich jetzt über diese selbst gemachte Komposterde in Behälter, statt 400 Liter Kompostertonnen. 😊
Die Eimer mit Kräuter als Turm stelle ich auch.
Und die Samen von Tomaten, Kürbis, Zwiebeln, Salat möchte ich auch sammeln.
Danke für deine sehr große Arbeit, die du machst.
Liebe Grüße aus Deutschland ❤
I would add butternut squash to the list. It's super easy to grow, stores a long time, and is high in nutrition. Also potatoes, and sweet potatoes, but those can be a little more finicky.
I grew 5 tomato plants I purchased at lowes and they grew big and gave me one tomoato never ever had such failure with tomatos
Great video Robbie. I find the biggest bang for the buck is Swiss chard. It’s is nutritious, cut and come again, and will produce until the snow comes.
My chard, bless it, grows 12 months and doesn't mind the snow.
Swiss Chard does pretty well in the heat too.
Yes, does great in Phoenix in 9b too!
Can’t seem to have luck with squash plants.
Years ago I grew a bunch of squash one weighed 2 1/2lbs
Loved this video. Do you have a video on growing citrus trees in buckets and putting the bucket in the ground please?
Hello Robbie. I Love all 5 that you mentioned. and we are growing Romaine lettuce and cherry tomatoes, green beans and Zucchini. all our favorites. We plant red scarlet beans for years for the hummingbirds also. i have not put tomatoes in the freezer as of yet. These are all excellent choices. Crazy prices in the grocery stores for sure. My Husband makes a delicious soup with Zucchini ,Tomatoes,green beans, Onions and fresh garlic a few potatoes & ground beef adds cumin tomato paste from the tube not to much. beef bullion It is so delicious. But we use all 5 you mentioned in different ways. so many ways. Thanks for the awesome video, your so Cool Robbie. Nora.
You sound like Gary and I ❤️😊 take care and thanks
Brilliant idea on the lettuce. I’m going to try it.
Love your videos Robbie - thank you so much.
I used to grow zucchinis without giving them a second thought then for the last three years I've had big fails. The plants and fruits start out wonderfully well, I make sure that the soil is nutritious (or is it?) there are plenty of bees around if not I do the pollinating bit only to have the fruits turn yellow at the tips then shrivel up and die. I just turned 74 (yikes!) so I don't have many more summers to play around so with so any suggestions would be most welcome.
And the cabbage white butterflies are driving me nuts!
Cover them with ag fabric or tulle and the moths can't get to them. You can hand pollinate your zucchini. I just did my first yellow squash and have about 3 more females to do tomorrow
If you can get a small two system set up with your zucchinis I’m telling you it will make a difference and will continue to grow. I think what might be happening is they’re pulling all the nutrients out before the fruit is produced fully. I have some other thoughts but I haven’t posted them yet. But try a two system set up ( easy ) check out that video and I think that will work great for you. I’m doing that right now on my deck and I can’t believe how massive the zucchini plant is because of the two system let me know how it works. If it doesn’t I have another idea. ❤️💕😊🌱
Try some peppermint spray on your plants. Search it on UA-cam to find the recipe and other applications.
Let me know if you can set up a 2 system compost in place, and I will personally tell you what to put in it…
@@DanielleBlanchardArts Thank you. Yes I did hand pollinate and I thought I'd succeeded last summer to no avail. Oh well I can try again next summer (I'm in Australia).
I put up 5 quart size bags of shredded cabbage today
Lots of great info. I'm excited about using totes to grow in. The ground here is so hard and mostly clay so we have to add alot to it. I could just put that soil in a tote and not kill myself trying to amend the clay.
Thanks.
Love the Lettuce idea!!!! Everything else too! :o)
Love your stacking pizza garden, I want to do something like that for a salsa garden. Oh man another project or two or three for me......you sure got my brain clicking. Thank you!!!!!!
This is it, easy vertical bucket garden thanks. ua-cam.com/video/By0e3HKxQ08/v-deo.html
Love your videos Robbie and Gary, thank you 🌺❤️
Okra sliced and breaded in seasoned cornmeal, then pan fried, is a southern staple.
Robbie, I like the veggies that you named. They all make sense because of the possibility of seed shortages. My list of veggies to grow makes meals taste great. I would always want 🥔 potatoes, onions 🌰, peppers 🌶 and bell peppers, and garlic.
Sounds great! 😊❤️💕
I love all the seed tips you give us.
I I have so many questions for you! lol I have two totes ready ALREADY using your layering method. Bought nothing but the two totes. I had everything I needed right here. Who knew! I did even buy potting soil, maybe I should, you tell me, but I had veggies growing in huge planter pots last year and left everything in them when the season was over. Well, it all broke down and when I started digging in there for native soil I was like hey, this is beautiful black soil so I used it on top. Now to plant. Of course I’m going to grow zucchini, hopefully I’m not too late and I’m hoping to still find tomatoes. I would like to grow beans and onions but am wondering if I’m too late. If I get tomatoes growing how do I save the seeds for next year? I want my grandkids to be able to grow food and they are all here with me now so I plan to get them all involved. I tend to lean towards the idea that we can not COUNT on things being available to us for many reasons cost not the least. Anyhoo, I’m so thankful for you and your kindness in sharing your tips and tricks. How about potatoes? Any tips? Thank you from Kathy in Indiana 💞
Bush beans gave me two hands full.
I love my container garden❤️
I'm growing 4 of those 5. Lol instead of beans I did radishes and carrots. Also a ton of herbs because they're so expensive to buy. Keep it green!
Excellent top 5 picks. Outside of those top 5, I would also grow some herbs. I love my basil, oregano and parsley. They grow so easily and make everything taste better. I love your channel.
Wow I wish I was right there but our weather isn't good and I have had problems growing any beans or zucchini because we have so much rain but I am trying and my collard is growing really well and my bucket fountain is working great 👍 Thanks Robbie 😊
ROBBIE! Thank you for being there for us! You talk fast and being from BROOKLYN, NY, I have a problem keeping up with you LOL! ..BUT!!! I NEVER miss a video!!! Want a laugh???? Watch me try to fill containers for pre-planting. Watch me make the green tea!!! HOWEVER!!!!! I won't give up! Keep in mind it isn't pretty to see me find stuff to place in containers!!! Its very sad!!! Just wanted you to know the gal from Brooklyn, NY but now living in WEST VIRGINIA is watching you and Gary! P.S. Everyone on YOU-TUBE talk about "walking Onions"... I have a Master's degree from University of Maryland. I still don't understand WALKING ONIONS...!!! I AM MISSING SOMETHING IMPORTANT AND DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS. HELP!
You don't specify what is puzzling you about walking onions, but if you do a simple internet search "what are walking onions"...or whatever your other question about them might be, you should find an abundance of information.🙂👍🏻
Also known as Egyptian onions- have to buy seedlings green not dried ( the babies you plant)😊
Wonderful ideas and suggestions!! Thank you, Robbie!!
I have tried to grow red runner beans - it didn't go well. For some reason, beans are a challenge. I can grow tomatoes like crazy though! I try squash every year, last year was the worst. It's pest pressure that takes them out. So far, fingers triple crossed, this year I might actually have some success. Thank you Robbie for all the wonderful information. Funny note - my husband saw me watching one of your videos and said - hey, that looks like our backyard, only smaller! LOL
You are so encouraging and a wonderful teacher!
Great tips!
You are amazing and an inspiration. This is a perfect system for me!!
Hi Robbie, u also make sun-dried tomatoes in the oven, n keep for future use as well
Im growing beets they are slow, my potato’s are doing good….I even have two ginger sprouts. I did plant onions they turned out so small, more starts from HD
The only thing I want to grow is hummingbirds! 🙏❤️
That was so helpful! Thanks!
You're welcome!
Thank you Robbie for this information, I just got some scarlet runner beans at the garden center today, lol I already planted them I hope the grow for me.
We have such a short growing season where I live in Canada
Nice video. Susie
Thank you for your smile,your cheerfulness,you are an inspiration 🐝🐞💞🌺🌸💐☀️💕
"HAPPY" I LOVE YOUR NAME Here! Oh thank you!
ThanQ 4 that info on Romaine! I couldn't understand WHY mine were so small. I spaced them properly too. So I just picked the lower leaves & gave 2 rabbit,Dilly... Tmrw I'll put those tiny things in small containers or maybe... my vehicle garden. Iluk how they do💚💚💚
Hello my Earthy Angel😄🌱 Memorial Day I fell getting out of the shower and cracked two ribs and tailbone. My totes on chairs started last year are doing good. Thankfully we have had a lot of rain and I haven't had to do much watering. Catching the drain off is a great idea. Thanks. My zucchini got lots of blossoms but no fruit last year.😟😩 Still have beautiful plants I haven't been able to plant yet because of pain in ribs and tailbone. Ugh Getting tiny tomatos and yellow sweet peppers. Also plant flowers among the veg. Love you guys so much.❤️
Ms Pat from southern Indiana.
Thanks for the motivation! Im gonna grow some romaine 🌱💕
Go for it! Once they start they seem here to grow like weeds, which is perfect!
not sure all those veggies would grow well in the deep south , BUT THANK YOU for all the great info you share🙂👍
Hello Robbie, love your videos and information. You have a greater advantage of growing year round. Do you ever grow anything indoors ? Here in the Northeast OH/MI area there is nothing that can be planted outside when the temperature is 12° and ground frozen ! Did container gardening this year since the temps have been hot and my raised bed uses lots of water versus containers.
I wonder if we shouldn't start buying seeds NOW for next year. I am following your example and I grow my veggies in pots. I have never doubled up the pots before but I am trying that out this year.
If you already have seeds, you're good for years. I only buy seeds every 5 or 10 years. I do save seeds every season though, so I usually have plenty of seeds. Even when I think I am low, such as with peas this year, a hunt through my stash turned up a bunch more peas to sow and more for next year. And of course, I saved some from this year's peas.
Hey Robbie where do you find tree collars seeds, I would love to try that, I actually never heard of them until I started watching you! I do have good luck with lettuce not sure if I water to much or what! I want to find some red scarlet beans too! Have a great day! Happy gardening! 😁❤
I am in Ohio. I’m just starting out with the container growing. What do you advise to be your soil mix when I prepare them? Thank you!
Just love ya
You know I haven’t got one red yet ☹️my tomatoes are All in the containers in the sun , I used dirt compost with manure 🤷🏼♀️in the bottom all leaves and my kitchen scraps! Learn from you but we in MN don’t have your weather , some hot weather not too many 😏water every day if it is dry and didn’t rain 🌧. I really don’t understand why I don’t have that much of any thing , my beans are all grown green but no flower yet😞
Thanks! I am growing zucchini for the first time. I planted too many seeds too close together. I wonder how that will go? I hope the growth doesn't get stunted.
Very good information. How do you manage insects?
Bakercreek offers walking onion starts/bulbs now.
Where do you get walking onions?
I'm not sure about brick-and-mortar retailers, but there are several online sources.
Do a search for "where to buy walking onions" and several pop up.
She said ebay😊
can you help me with my zucchini end rot? I have them in totes.
Hi good morning it's August 11th 2003 11th and it's my very first time Robbie I got a tote and I got to 2 kale plants planted in my tote so I'm so excited. I live in Riverside county and I was wondering do you do any classes?
Question for anyone who knows. I have worm castings. Can I soak in water and use the water as fertilizer for my plants?
yes, this would be making it into a "tea". This method is often done with fresh manure that is too hot to put on plants right away. But this is not needed for worm castings - they will not burn plants. The only benefits of doing this with worm castings would be the tea would be easier and faster for the plant to absorb. And if you only have a small amount of worm castings, making tea would stretch how many plants you can treat. I doubt you need to dilute the worm castings tea. Hope this helps.
@@classicrocklover5615 thank you so much for confirming for me! They need a little boost so appreciate the encouragement to go forward!
