  • We visited the Home Depot to buy some materials for make potting mix... When does everything become so expensive? How can we save money from growing our own vegetables???
    Well, buy seeds to grow your own seedlings. We will save a lot of money for seedlings for sure. Take a look at our website to see if you want to try any of them.

    Totally agree.. It seems one brand of potted plants(Bonnie's) has taken over all the shelf-space in retail outlets so there's no competition. Buying seeds and a little planning is much more economical.

    Ridiculous! That’s why I grow from seed!

    You could make great compost at home. You have lots of garden waste, leaves, kitchen scraps, and you have a small tractor with a big scoop bucket. My small city lot is about 6000 square feet in size and I’m able to fill two compost bins; both are 5’x5’x5’ thats 125 cubic feet of compost per bin, so 250 cubic feet total. I collect lots of leaves in the autumn!!
    My vegetable garden is about 1000 square feet, so a 2” layer of compost on the garden plus lots of perfect organic compost for seedlings.
    I follow Charles Dowding’s No-Dig method. He has lots of youtube videos that are very educational.

    Wow thanks for the heads up on how much they have jacked the prices up. Here in New JErsey gardening has just ended so maybe the prices are more reasonable out of season (I hope) I"m scared to wait until next spring to get my supplies... maybe I'll buy some now instead if the prices are lower now. That big bag of peat moss used to be only $12 here. I always grow everything from seed. The way things are going.... we may be lucky to get these supply items at all at any price next season.

    $20 for a tomato plant! Jeez, I just throw the seeds and the tomato will grow itself.

    It’s too bad we all don’t have farms near by. The farmers with cows, chickens etc. can sell manure and straw etc. Makes me wish I had rabbits or chickens. But I live in town. 💕

    Just wondering have you grow taro before?

    NO to Peat moss, here in the UK we generally avoid it (I think it's banned) due to the fact It releases carbon emissions into the air, it also degrades the state of the wider peatland landscape
