Hey, you rock, young lady! Everyone should know how to plant a garden. Big or small, it matters. I do it from my small apt & grow a few container veggies on my balcony! It's not only healthy, but it supplements our food supply and teaches young & old respect for nature & Mother Earth! Thanks for doing this video. It's valuable on so many levels!
You did a great job ,,, thank you for staying down to earth. So many videos tell you to go out and buy , buy,, buy. Not all of us have the means to do that. I like videos like this that stay simple. It helps to remind people to use what you have and do what you can and know that that’s enough.
You’re a great teacher! It made me happy to hear that your two year old watered things for you. It’s so good for children to learn about gardening early and enjoy nature! You’re inspiring me to plant more things!
If you end up with a bad quality of potting soil, you can always add your own compost. Keep all your kitchen scraps (non-meat/non-dairy), paper, leaves, egg shells, and etc, folks. They are the building blocks of good compost!
@@forevertrue06 Robbie and Gary Gardening Easy is the most awesome YT channel there is on composting. Following them would be an excellent start.🍋🍊🍏🍉🌱🌞💜
I’m glad that I came upon your video. I want to start a container garden and you have given me the inspiration that I needed. I instantly hit the subscribe button because you are good at explaining what you do. You really got me with the watermelons. Who would have thought. Thank you for sharing your talent.
I did this with my asparagus but i lined it with gardening fabric so that the water can drain. I also used those storage crates with the holes in them and lined with garden fabric. I love gardening... It is so relaxing to me! I am also apart of a gardening group called Black Girls Grow Gardens and they are an amazing grow, very positive and helpful! Its a sisterhood over there. Happy Gardening!
@@forevertrue06 Yes! And Im definitely trying strawberries next year. Plus I want to try the waist level garden beds. Hope it helps with the garden pest, they tore up my cabbage! Im so glad you joined!❤
Thank you sweet heart, for the planting in laundry baskets idea. Such a super cool and cheap way to plant, I love it. I am going to the dollar tree store tomorrow 11-28-2021. And I am going to buy 50 baskets and a few packs of white plastic bags. My backyard is going to be a very colorful site to see LOL. By the way your ear rings are just beautiful. Have a Bless gardening experience next year. Show us how your watermelons turned out.💐🌸🌷🌹🌻🌺🍄🙏
@@CozyAmbientAscent Hey KHALIFIA, thanks for sharing the information about the BLACK GIRLS GROW GARDEN'S. I hope you have much success in gardening next year. It is super nice to see young people such as yourself, getting into gardening 🙏🍄🌺🌻🌹🌷🌸💐😄.
@@harrietschneider6752 Thank you! I bet it will be so beautiful! I had to leave my beautiful garden when we moved. Never got the chance to see the watermelon mature.
Yesssss!!! No joke, I had just decided that it was going to be too much money and hassle to do a garden this year. We just moved and I don’t have an area all dug up or anything. But there you are, with your fabulous dollar tree laundry basket saving the day. I am super excited now, thank you so much for sharing! I love your little baby watermelons.
Look at all the little watermelons! Thats so fun! I enjoy watching people's container gardening videos. I find them very inspirational and I love getting new ideas for my little townhouse garden here in Ohio.
I am very proud of you, and your video is magnificent. Just make certain to poke several holes in the bottom of your trash-bag, so that water can drain out, and your plant-roots won't rot. Thank you so much for your greatness.
I love how you're a real person.. real tips. I'm about to move all my dirt to a storage container. Loved that idea. So much better than that Hallmark gardening on here when I just want reasonable tips.
I love this! We did the exact same thing. I have some of the same things from Dollar Tree as well. We grew the watermelons on a handmade trellis too. Glad I found another Black girl gardener🥰
I love this. Thank you. Do you ever have trouble with slugs? I read that you can use those copper scrubbers and unroll and cut them, then place a few strands around the base of your plants. Have a great day.
I watched like 50 videos to show me how to plant watermelons and non made it simple like you did. I love this! Thank you. I will do the same. Many blessings to you.
just watch your small container garden it's so cute you're like me I'm running out of room I'm just now getting into planting vegetables that I love all my flowers go girl very nice
Thank you for posting this. I never thought about using a laundry basket! When you put the plant food in according to how you feel I thought you must also be a great cook 😂
I love this!!! I also love to see that your in a complex of some sort. I live in Baltimore, in a townhouse (rowhouse) and the space is so limited and my yard is RIGHT NEXT to my neighbor's...NO Privacy!!!! This is good!! Thank You!!
Woooow 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽😍😍😍 I literally just came across your video and I am in complete awe 😱🥰...Your garden looks so beautiful! Everything is bright green (which lets me know it's healthy) and seems to be thriving!!! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽😊 I too enjoy gardening 🌱🌞💦... It's gotten cold now but come this spring I'll definitely be back at it with my flowers and vegetables 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽😍😍😍❤️
I just happened to find your video and I love, love it. I always wanted to make pumpkin, and I could never find a spot for the few things to grow. Well I found your channel and was so thrilled to figure out how to do this with my dollar tree basket, that fell apart after a few days of using it for clothes. So this is a great way to use it for something else and your idea was so great. Thank you for taking time to do this video because I already bought 5 baskets for clothes but now I have something else to use with these baskets. Thank you again.
I like your style. I have the space to have a garden but I prefer to just have pots and areas here and there. I'm looking for ideas because this is the first year I'm going to do this and you inspire me!
I can’t wait to see more of your garden this year!! 👩🏾🌾 I’m recording my gardening experience as well and watching videos like yours is helping me so much! 💕🌱🪴
Thank you for sharing, I'm definitely doing this! When we moved to Arkansas about 4 months ago we packed things into several laundry baskets we no longer need. I'm so excited to transform them into a container garden. Thanks to you I'll be ready to plant as early as possible.
Thank you for this video! Girl I was excited when I saw how big it got and that you even had melons growing! I’m starting off growing my own food and didn’t realize how freaking expensive it is, so thank you for giving us tips in how to do this on a budget.
You are AWESOME!!! This is informative and inspiring. I can't wait to plant now! I was really discouraged because I don't have a big back yard but you are showing me I have options! Thank you for posting!
I have a collard green plant I'm starting tomatoes, peppers, blue kales I have a dwaf cherry tree and a dwarf apple tree now that I seen how well it does in that plastic basket I'm going to do another watermelon thanks
You are awesome! Thank you for sharing your excitement With us and you inspire us to continue striving to grow our own food and more of it and healthier plants. Thank you thank you thank you.
Beautiful lady I just shared your video with my friends and my family my aunt lives in an apartment she says she cannot grow nothing except in pots she was tickled to death to see this video
I have a raised garden in Wisconsin here, but it's 3/12/21 and really too early to plant a garden yet, since it still gets too cold at night for plants. However I have started some seeds inside like u did.
Great ideas! I’m just a little concerned abt using certain plastics with all the claims that are out regarding certain ones, like plastic wrap and # 1 grade coding (I think that’s the one to avoid). Do you know if the plastic used for garbage liners are food safe? I guess people would just need to do some research on which ever plastic is of interest. Really wonderful and thrifty ideas. You could also line your basket with that black weed prevention ground covering as well if you didn’t want to use plastic garbage bags and that would illuminate having to put breathing holes all throughout. Thank you for sharing. Have a wonderful day. Great video!
Also those zina's on the side of your screen u showed us.When your flower dries up don't throw away.Their seeds .Simply pop one off open it up and spread it open I mean .those black spec.are the seeds.You are BEAUTIFUL OMG.I LOVE COMPLIMENTING MY SISTAH.IS ALK IT'S MY GIFT FROM GOD.✌💞💞
I love your gardening videos so much. I feel like I say it all the time lol, but I really want you to know how much I enjoy them and how much your gardening journey inspires me. I'm currently growing a pineapple from the head of a store bought pineapple. I propagated it for like 3wks and was surprised it even grew roots! Planted it in dirt maybe a month ago and there are baby leaves growing from the center! I can't wait until next summer to start a container garden like you! Thank you so much for your videos! ❤️❤️
Wow! That is so cool I hope u are taking progress pics! I’m going to show how I’m prepping for my fall garden soon so maybe you can start one as well!! Thanks so much for the feedback I’m glad that more people are enjoying the new content
Thank you queen !! So refreshing to see black gardeners, such as myself. Keep thriving !!! 👩🏾🌾🙏🏾🙌🏾

And you could ziptie the wire trellis onto the pot so the weight of the 🍉 doesn't too it over and pull the wire trellis out
If you end up with a bad quality of potting soil, you can always add your own compost. Keep all your kitchen scraps (non-meat/non-dairy), paper, leaves, egg shells, and etc, folks. They are the building blocks of good compost!
Thanks that’s my next step I just need a good container.

Yes sis you are an inspiration.
I like your resourcefulness
You proved there is no excuse. I’m amazed how much you fit in that tiny space. It is a blessing. Did you cut holes in the plastic bag for drainage?
She did; she mentioned that at the end of her video.
Thanks sis, wonderful Ideas. Glad that I found you..
Potatoes would be great to grow in that basket!
I have a raised garden in Wisconsin here, but it's 3/12/21 and really too early to plant a garden yet, since it still gets too cold at night for plants. However I have started some seeds inside like u did.
