    Robbie, writing here from chilly N.C. I wrote a comment on your other video saying I couldn't start my seeds because of the wind that day. You told me to look out for this video and that it might be helpful. Well it is! You always give such great knowledge and ideas! Thank you for sharing

    hey, for hanging those light tube from the lid, you can use a ribbon or thin rope & make it long enough to go down to the plant & then unknot the rope & retie it so it hangs shorter. that way you can move the light to the plant instead of propping up the plant to meet the light.

    Absolutely right about trees. Some folks want the instant impact of a big tree and either don’t know or don’t care that it will just sit there for three years before it begins to grow. Thank you for these wonderful helpful tips, I’m an older lady and this will make it much easier for me!

    This is VERY handy information for shorter growing seasons in the Northern areas *and* for folks with limited space and need things compact. [ie, Me. Because I do not yet have any kind of greenhouse (yet).] I'm in South Carolina & have a longer growing season sure, but - for example - peppers. Take. For. Ever. - and I can do this in my *craft room* which is where I over-winter some of my plants. I LOVE LOVE LOVE this. I'm gonna get the goods & do it too! Yay! Yay! Yay!

    Hello from East Texas…. By way of San Diego! I’ve been using the Clear Totes to start seeds for a while. So much fun! You can also turn them upside down over your transplants for protection - when Mother Nature has Mood Swings. Which is the Norm for East Texas. EVERY spring 😝

    I started my seeds that exact same way a couple years ago, except I didn’t have a heat mat at the time. The peppers and eggplant were a little slow to germinate without a heat mat, but everything grew great! Thanks for sharing with us!

    I used the 2 dollar shoe boxes. They stack and hold 8 seedlings. I kept them on my freezer until they sprouted. Now, I'm taking them outside and open them during the day. Still dropping to the 40s at night here. Chijaua desert wicking container garden. Thank you for your content.

    This worked perfect Robbie, My home doesn't have many windows so I searched high and low on the internet and I found the exact same light on eBay, (seller is selling many of these for $10.69 with free shipping), and I started my very first green house! Thank you for this brilliant idea!

    Hi 👋 Robbie, I hope you’re both doing well.
    I started some tomato seeds from my first tomato that grew, from last summer.
    Going to be planting some more seeds soon and I have two small grow lights that I put them under.

    I found the first dragon fruit that tasted delicious. It was yellow. Saved a few seeds. Do you know if they will be true to the fruit it came from?

    • @RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy
      @RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy  3 місяці тому

      Yes the seeds of the yellow dragon fruit ( imported from Ecuador ) will likely produce plants with similar fruit.

    I love all your videos. I have incorporated a lovely compost tote, along with ordering tulle. I have a question: you add a piece of cardboard to raise the temp by 1 degree, do you think aluminum foil would work better ? I haven’t tried it yet.

    Please, with the Red Roselle, are they happy in pots or in the ground only? For the hummingbirds or to make sweet drinks? (just ordered 50 seeds from etsy vedor) thankyou, creator!! 🎨

    • @almostoily7541
      @almostoily7541 3 місяці тому +1

      Roselle makes a tart drink but you can sweeten it.
      I use roselle, ginger and turmeric for my tea. If I accidentally use too much roselle then I do sweeten it. Usually I drink it tart.

    • @RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy
      @RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy  3 місяці тому +1

      I grow them all here in containers, some in totes, and some in buckets. Some people make a jam jelly out of it, we use it to make tea out of sometimes. I will say they are really pretty, the hummingbirds do come to feed on them here, but I’m not sure how much they really get out of the flowers, maybe some pollen.
