- after watching a few videos I decided to build my own earth box planter
you will need a container
some corrugated pipe
some pvc pipe
potting MIX (not soil)
Happy New Year, I wish you all the best for a bountiful 2023.
I still have a corrupt section in this video but at least the whole thing is uploaded now, enjoy.
Thanks for watching The ProCut

Fantastic man. Made many different sip love them, I put air stones in my water, but I grow herb. Lol . I have at this time 36 home made, love them,. You can hook up a red tank to fill earth box or sip systems. Fantastic
I’ve watched several diy videos. You are the first I’ve seen use a dremel rotary blade! Makes a neater, more exact fit than a box cutter 🙄 or a saw. Thanks for that!
Glad it was helpful!
Audio is good. I can hear 🙉 you loud and clear. Don't like videos that you can't hear the people talking. The video stopped but I can still hear you explaining. Don't worry I'm still here to the end. Full view as always from me including commercials. Your back and video is running properly.
that section got corrupt on the GoPro some how.
I appreciate you Bryan
Best design yet!!👏👏👏
Thank you! Cheers!
Those contaners are the best, very cool project! Might be using this idea to extend/lengthen the short Minnesota growing season. Good stuff right here🌿
rural kind just put this container on sale for $7.99
@@TheProCut17 thats a deal right there, love the stackability they have, can stack as high as you can reach
best lid/tote cover treatment ever!
thanks
This self watering planter looks awesome John Happy New Year!!!!
happy new year to you too mate
Was thinking about using these so hell yeah thanks
works great
I really like the way you cut the lid.
thanks
a little at a time gives the best results
Cool John, hope it works out for ya! Happy New Year bro!
thanks I have some veg growing in it now
nice one!!
Thank you
Looks like a fair amount of work John, hope this works well for you.
Caught plenty ads here 😊
I've got veg growing in it right now
Great idea should grow things really well ..keep it well watered and free from pests ..
That's the plan!
Good idea
I have a bunch of veg growing in there right now
@@TheProCut17 awesome bro
I like your build, looks better than others I've seen but I'm surprised that you did not add a piece of geotextile to prevent soil from going into your water reservoir though the weeping holes.
Thanks for watching and commenting. I've seen it both ways, but I did not have any cloth laying around. I will likely pull this box apart this fall and can report whether any soil got through or not.
Earthing with John
I have some shorts coming up on this one in a week or so
Looks good. I bet that took a fair amount of time to do.
a few hours

There is definitely something going on with YT. Pretty cool box you built bro👍
my numbers are still down
@@TheProCut17 mine are now at half of what they were two months ago 🙄
pretty cool earth box
you can make one to grow on your patio
@@TheProCut17 what patio?
@@JdubbVlogs I thought you had a sliding door to a patio, most apt. do
@@TheProCut17 no I wish we did though. If I had a patio I’d sit out there all day long. An would of had me some plants going
@@JdubbVlogs that stinks, you're going to have to get creative. search "guerilla gardening" and you can get some ideas. would also make some good content for you if you decide to give it a go.
lets try this again
First
Here again
@@DataWatch. thanks
You bought a big enough bin for the plants
27 gallon
To prevent the yellow plastic from sagging later on, place some red bricks in the bottom near the middle.
the bottom has sections of 4" pipe holding it up
@@TheProCut17 Bought a round 2 cubit foot planter today. I don't think I can fit that piping in mine.
2 cubic feet of wet dirt weights a LOT.
That planter is over 60 quarts. Bought 2 more different ones that hold 72 quarts.
If plants won't grow in pots that big I might as well hang it up! lol
Have to start fabricating the water chambers. Bought the stuff I needed today.
Still need some corks though for the floats...
@@crazysquirrel9425 mine is 27 gallons or 108 quarts
@@TheProCut17 1st pot says 60 quarts other 2 said 72 quarts.
Both I think should be OK to plant a watermelon and two tomatoes.

Some of my videos have been doing this or going into slow mode by itself. I have no idea what’s going on. I let the phone update every time it needs a update so not sure. This was still a great how to do video. An caught six ads for ya. Shoutout to Leon
yeah the GoPro screwed up that one file
I must of missed it, where did you put the drain holes to keep from over filling?
with the 4" pipe in the bottom you want the drain hole between 3" and 3.5" so there is approximately a 1" air gap
Can you please make a video of the Axis electric Golf Carts that are available at Lowe's?
they are Coleman here not axis but I can
I think they are over priced at 9999.99
@@TheProCut17 Okay awesome thank you very much I appreciate it!
Does anyone know a video where I can see how the piping is inside the box?
check out Mr Leon he uses a different container but same idea ua-cam.com/video/6GI-O49gcvc/v-deo.htmlsi=lNC1V7aAFx3EU8ie
Are all homemade earth box planters that difficult to make? I'd have to buy a bunch of tools plus the box to make one. I hope it works out for ya brother!
there are easier ways depending on your container
@@TheProCut17 And depending on your skill level. 😂😂
@@TC_Conner I'll be making a few others that are way easy and require almost no tools closer to spring
Why in reverse?
not sure what you mean?
The dumbest thing about USA is its stubborn refusal to use the metric system, despite metric becoming STANDARD in USA since presidency of Gerald R Ford😂
@@robertpucius7006 I agree metric is a superior system
NO NO NO, DAMNIT, PLEASE REDO THE VIDEO! If you don't know what you are doing, then just listening DON'T WORK. I need to see what you did below the yellow part. I need to see what is inside. Listening don't do it. Damn!
3 sections of 4” corrugated pipe laid flat hold the yellow bottom up. And two short sections of the same 4” pipe are used vertically for the wicking chambers
Cheap and stupid are a dangerous combination.
it's not stupid if it works
