I really liked the idea of the metal star to scare the birds away. I have a problem with starlings pulling out my onion sets over and over again. As for an economical shaker, you can use the shaker lid off a Parmesan Cheese container on any standard mouth canning jar and the lid seals shut when you are done. I use the shaker on a quart jar to put out salt on icy sidewalks.
That's a great idea! Happy gardening
Another tip for protecting strawberries is to put rocks around that have been painted red. I do this before the strawberries come out. Birds go to the red rocks and find they aren't edible. Then when the strawberries come in they think they're rocks so don't bother them.
Interesting. Happy gardening
That’s a great idea.
Clever!
I buy the rubber snakes at the Dollar Tree & put on my hanging plants, garden, wreaths & railing on my porch. It keeps the birds away for a dollar!
Great idea…happy gardening
Snakes never worked for me. Nor owls. Birds came in always
@@janbrewington7771 your birds must be smarter than mine, lol
I did that to keep my chickens out of my porch flowers and pots.
For the time I had them, did not need a doorbell because any visitors let out a scream to announce they've seen one of the fake snakes. 😂
Turns out also, chickens eat snakes.... So it did not work for me.
I never thought about rubber snakes.I know what I will be buying
I use a mustard squeeze bottle bought from Dollar Tree to apply my diatomaceous earth around my plants.
Great idea happy gardening
I'm suprised I never thought of a simple mesh laundry bag for plants !
I don’t have a soldering iron… so I heat up a very pointy metal awl over a candle and then melt the holes into the plastic.
Large Parmesan from Costco shakers I use for DE. I use it for my chickens and my gardren.
Great idea!
To drill plastic lids, remove lid, flip over, & place on scrap wood. Drill now.
My dollar tree has drink pitchers with handles. It has a pour feature or a filtered feature to keep the ice in. I use them for my chicken feed
Great idea 💡👍
What a nice, chilled guy you are.
Thanks for your kind words. Happy gardening
Run the drill in reverse to keep from cracking the plastic.
Great tip
Thank you, I love dollar tree hacks!❤❤
Happy gardening
The mirrored hanging star is such a great idea! I would’ve never thought of that! 😮
Take off the blue lid. Turn it upside down. Put it on a bit of wood and drill, It's easier.
Thank you for these great inexpensive garden hacks! They fit into my budget real well!
You are so welcome! Happy gardening
Awesome ideas, and I loved all of them! Never thought to fasten the domes with landscaping stakes. The laundry bag will keep out the birds and squirrels far less expensively than the bird netting. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful! Happy gardening
I am blessed with a very large backyard. So I set up a feeding station opposite my garden. I have different bird and squirrel feeders and different levels of water and bird baths. It works very well. ❤
Thank you! I went to Dollar Tree this morning and able to purchase most of the items. A great buy!
You are so welcome happy gardening
This year the cicadas are hatching down south, with 2 different batches. Those laundry bags are great for the plants. I have used a tomato cage over the plant with the circle part on the ground I bend in the prongs inward or just cut them off and put either the laundry bag or a pillowcase. Make sure you tuck it under the plant pot as well to keep the bugs from penetrating into the plant pot. I had an infestation of these tiny beatles and i had to use the pillowcase to keep them out.
Sounds great!
Not just in the South, but yes. It's gonna get loud!
I use a mason jar and a Kraft Parmesan lid to distribute my fertilizer or diatomaceous earth
Our DT has planters with a handle to hang on a wooden fence or deck. The hanging basket, cocoa, Core liners.are good to put in the bottom of a planter for drainage. The potting soil at DT can be used if you beef it up with some nutrients if in a pinch. The fertilizer sticks are not that bad either
Great ideas. Many suggest wear a mask when putting out the diatomaceous earth to prevent inhaling it.
I use recycled plastic containers from kitchen, spices, parm. Cheese ect. For shaking
Great idea!
I take blue car towels and put it at the bottom of the planter to keep soil in and allow drainage. Then i put some sponges with the holes in them and put them on top of the towel. I then put the dirt in. The spinges keep in some moisture for the roots to grow towards. Here in NM it got horribly hot last year. You dont want to over water but you want the plants not to dry out either....
I think dehydrated plants number 1 issue in summer here. Happy gardening
I found some nuggets of good information here! Never thought about the laundry bag as pest protection. we’re expecting a hard freeze tonight, and I have a stockpile of the little wire baskets that I use to help protect my plants from getting smashed when I cover with sheets, but it occurred to me that the laundry basket would also work for bigger/taller plants too. They can be pretty flimsy though, but worth a try.
Glad it was helpful! Happy gardening
Yes I use the soldering gun for holes.
You can get damaged CD's to hang and it is flashy and scares away birds and critters.
Excellent idea.
Use a tin pie plate to keep birds away after you got to enjoy the pie. Cut up an out of commission rubber hose for snakes.
They have in the kids section the toy snakes
@@gracejohnston2692 try to save the environment and use stuff you are going to toss.
Great video, thx. I found by accident, when drilling holes in plastic it seems to be gentler, cause less damage and less mess if you run the drill in reverse. Dunno why? Just works for me.
These are great hacks, I already use most of them but I learned a couple of new ones too.
Thank you for sharing.
Glad you like them!
For bells I invert a 5 gallon bucket and cut the bottom out.
To that I add cake carrier top, microwave plate cover or a the clear plastic cutting boards to have a translucent lid.
With a white bucket, you don't even need a clear lid, they are translucent enough on their own.
Interesting idea happy gardening
For diatomaceous earth a griiling condement squeeze bottle works well. And always use a mask when using it, as it can be bad for lungs with continued uses. And two small baskets with a small cut out fixed together protects fruit like pineapple etc
We bought a bunch of waste baskets because of one of your previous videos, they work great!
Good to know! Happy gardening
Thank you for sharing your ideas. Some of them I already incorporate in my tiny garden, but most of them I never thought of. Thanks again.
Love your ideas. Some of very useful and I never think. Thanks for sharing!
You are so welcome!
Great ideas.. got me thinking now I like the idea of hanging the pitcher off your railings etc thanks
Glad to help
These ideas are great! The squirrels in my area are merciless. All of my seedlings were dug out yesterday(in the matter of an hour). I was ready to cry. Today, I replant and head to the store for the hacks you have listed. Thank you
Sounds great! Happy gardening
Enjoyed all your dollar tree hackers. Some I had never thought of. I also enjoy using the dollar tree buckets. Not just for water but also for carting mulch, soil, weeds, whatever you need - for around the garden. The cloche ideas are great as they cost so much in the garden nurseries and catalogs.
You are so welcome! Happy gardening
Thank you for sharing, those are some good tips.
You are so welcome!
I love that basket suggestion for the hose. Mine is just scattered in the garden and such a mess.
Thank you. You gave me some great ideas, especially for the strawberries.
You are so welcome!
I have an old charcoal grill ima set up to use as a planter.
Like why throw it out?
I made a stand for my lathe out of 1!
@@Ingchao oh cool! See!! Plenty of goofy things to do with stuff.
I don’t think this grill could handle any kind of weight besides some soil b
@@tompatchak8706 this grill was actually a really well made one. It has a 3/4" tubular frame that's really sturdy and it has stainless steel panels . I took the grill off an replaced it with a counter top to bridge the gap. A cheapo charbroil type grill frame would never hold the weight of the lathe.
That's what I did 👍
@@maryklever1633 oh cool, what did you put in it?
Nice voice, nice pace, great ideas.
Thank you so much 😀. Happy gardening
Great video! Will definitely be scoping out my local dollar stores before going back to a garden center or home depot/lowes for supplies ☺️☺️ Thank you!!
Good luck! Happy gardening
What a GRAND idea thank you sincerely
Happy gardening
Don't let the plastic touch your plants because it will burn the leaves if it gets really cold
Thank you! These are all great suggestions!!
You're so welcome!

Love the idea with the osmocote! I’ve been using Osmocote consistently for at least 25 years and am always buying it in the plastic jars. I think I’m going to try your method!!!
Happy gardening and good luck.

Liked and subscribed! ❤ thank you sir!
Thanks for the sub! Happy gardening
Take the top off and place on solid surface, the plastic lid won’t bend and crack. Of course a soldering iron is great.
Thank you good video
Glad you enjoyed it happy gardening
Thank you for these hacks. I never really knew how to garden but I do want to try this. I hope I do well with strawberries but how do you keep the birds, bugs or animals from eating them? I have a lot to learn about gardening. What would you say is best for a first time gardener to grow from a container? I was thinking strawberries or herbs or tomatoes and I like these tips because I either tend to kill plants by over watering or under watering so I stuck with no plants. Have a nice day 😊🍓🌼🌱
My latest garden video shows how to protect from birds and wildlife. Happy gardening
just found your channel and love it just subscribed to our videos. Wondering what zone you are in I am in southern New Hampshire and although I’m 62 I’m just learning now! L O L. Never too late! I just purchased a greenhouse which I’m thrilled about I’m trying to build a bio diverse ecosystem in my backyard. Trying to find a channel in my same zone to reduce the variables for learning sake. But regardless, I love your videos, and look forward to learning from you. thank you so much for all your wonderful content!
I’m in 7a southeastern USA. Happy gardening
Me too😊
Great ideas, thank you off to dollar tree today.
You are so welcome! Happy gardening
I use upside down laundry baskets for my strawberries.
Cut off the bottom (watering dish), then the basket is for to hold the strawberries off the ground.
👍👍
👍👍👍
I would put holes in the bottom for drainage in that basket that you have the water hose in I know that it has holes all around it but if you didn't want mosquitoes coming in it would be better to put some holes in the bottom for drainage
Great idea!
You hit the nail on the head with all of these! Us ladies ❤❤ ANY kind of hack! I bet your wife put you up to this video! 😉 😉 She got me to subscribe. Thanks for all the great ideas. PS (Here's one, don't put insect killer down when it's super windy out...lol)
She laughed when she read the comment….but no she just helps with editing as I am old and technologically impaired. 😂
Awesome Tips!
Glad it was helpful!
Excellent information !

Great ideas,do you have any hacks to prevent squirrels,rabbits and raccoons out of gardens
Catch and relocate traps at most hardware stores. I take them to a state park where they will be safe and almost never contact other humans.
Bobbex repellent
Thank you ❤❤❤❤
You're welcome 😊 happy gardening
Diatomaceous earth can harm honey bees. Perhaps it’s less so if you cover it with mulch. Not sure
Oh no 😟..we need the bees…!!!
Do you have a channel that teaches about Bonsais?
Considering it. Not sure how much interest though.
They caught on here in Massachusetts. The wire baskets are no where to be found
Dollar tree has a website you can order from if you need something.
