    This is genius! I have a bunch of 6 ft. bamboo stakes and was trying to figure out how to secure them without the wind blowing them over. Just have to go get some green tape. Thanks for helping keep from spending a fortune.

I wanted to share something I learned from someone else on UA-cam that I never knew....they make METAL zip ties!!! I had to order some from Amazon, of course! So no more baking and cracking in the sun and heat!! Bet Gary could use some of those, too!! Thanks again, and have a wonderful evening!!

    I have just come in from checking my garden. I have two yellow squash vines with lots of flowers. Only female flowers [I know because you told me what to look for]. A plant in another tote in another part of the garden had two male flowers. Thanks for showing me how to hand pollinate. Hopefully, I did it correctly. Only time will tell. I have been gardening for years but feel I know very little about gardening. I am learning so much from you! Going to watch more of your videos! Thanks again!

    HI Robbie Thank you this came just at the right time. I have been trying to figure out how to do a trellis and be able to put some tulle over some plants to protect from the hot humid area we live in. No the wheels are turning. I was going to use some branches we had cut but they are rough on material. Will be showing my friend this she is just getting back into gardening. I love all the things you have taught us lately.And you " think out side the box" like we do!!

    Thank you so much! I am such a frugal person that I already have used foil in a drawer. But. I don’t have the imagination to use stuff for something other then they were made. I’m doing much better after watching your videos. I have so much less waste (and I hardly had any before) compared to neighbors. Their trash cans are filled over the top. I dropped trash pickup at my house and pay a few dollars to a neighbor to put my small kitchen bag in his extra trash can. The only waste I have pretty much is from the litter box. Lol. And this fall, I’m taking all the trash bags with leaves away from my neighbors curbs. They pay extra for that pick up. I wonder if they’ll pay me? Hahaha.

    Hi Robbie. I am watching your video and just love all your ideas. I have a question about composting. I live in Mississippi and we have many species of snakes. I have heard they are attracted to compost bins as they are warm...ugh and they like to lay eggs in them. Do I cover my bin and if so what with? I sure don't want to look in my bin and see any snake! We also have raccoons and opossums. How do I keep them out of the bin? Thanks! I am just starting on my bin journey

    • @RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy
      @RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy  2 роки тому

      Here the opossums do not bother the totes, and I have my compost in my totes, in the middle, covered in some sort of soil. So I have never had our snakes try to get in, they are just looking for rodents in the garden. Be sure if you are dumping kitchen scraps in a tote, to cover them with a thin layer of any soil, that is even "dirt" from your yard if you think you are going to have an issue. Take care!

    I can never seem to get a very good look at the trellises (the whole system) that you use with in the 18 gallon bins. I'm not sure how to set them up for small melons like sugar baby watermelons. I heard that melons grow very well during growing zone 9 summers but need a lot of water, and even watering. I think the bins would help with that.
    I don't have any experience using zip ties. Will they really keep the horizontal parts of the trellis in place?
