One addition you might try :) is putting some pebbles around the base of your grow bags, that way when the water is sitting in there it attracts bees :) bees need lots and lots of water as they're gathering their pollen they get very thirsty :) and by providing a water source for them you will naturally be helping your flowers along too :) the rocks provide a stepping ground so the bees don't drown while they drink :)
I schedule the watering as to provide just enough moister for the grow bags to absorb everything before the next watering cycle begins. This eliminates standing water issues and the potential for "wet feet" and mosquito larvae to proliferate. The bees love my fish pond and bird bath to get a drink. Cheers!
Yes I like that idea! The bees need all the help they can get! 🐝🌼
We turned all our birdbaths into bee watering stations. We have an Apiary
@@mstessdowney What did you do to make them good for bees?
@@barbaravance6774 we put all different size rocks in the bottom so the bees could sit on them to drink and not fall in and drown
The kiddie pools that just never degrade in the sun and I have been using them 20 years plus years now are the little tykes green turtle pools, the same size as these blue pools (I tried these, they do not hold up well in sun).
I have used the little tikes pools for animal drinking right out in the sun so algae would not grow in the water.
I even had pet pigs with their sharp hoofs in them an they never once cracked.
They are expensive brand new about $59.95 to $69.95 each, but I picked about 20 of them up here an there between Craigs List, yard Sales, local sales paper, etc. I never paid over $8.00 for 1 of them, less for others an at least 1/2 the people just wanted them gone for free.
I now know what I am going to use them for.
Great video, you are 1 of the best for actually giving clear information an how an why things are done. I have been watching so many of them, all great.
Thanks so very much.
Thank you for this very good information. I was concerned about the degradation of the pools over time.
I now know what to get to get the most out of the pools!
Thanks, hon!
Can you see a recycle symbol with either a 2 or a 5 in it, or whether or not that turtle pool is made of polypropylene? I'm just wondering if it's a food grade plastic.
@@lindyswanson12 4 or 5 is safe.😊
1,3,6,7 are bad
I put a kiddie pool full of dirt on the southeast corner of my porch in about 2012. It receives the full, unshaded blast of a North Central Texas sun. In 2019, the rim fell off, but the main body of the pool still holds. So, now you have a better idea of how long yours will last in a more protected environment.
good to know how long pools last! i got several on clearance at end of season last year, but had no idea what to use them for.
@@sandy-rr1by pool can be used for dogs. Dogs love getting in kiddy pools
Thank You very much for the range of options you have shared with us, I appreciate the diversity of growing methods you have explored in your garden. You have shared dirt cheap, yet effective methods, to more upscale, permanent options. Thanks for sharing your planting journey with us😊👍🏾!
Nice
I used kiddie pools to garde in in Oklahoma. They lasted 4 years until the h a IL took them out and I had to replace th.
What I like about your videos is that you’re straight to the point. Thanks for all your tips! I ordered and received some of your seeds too so I’m excited to try them out…keep on growing!! 🌱🪴🌱🪴🙂
That was a great video. You've got automation down pat. I love it.
I love the kiddie pool idea for the grow bags. Thank you.
Awesome idea. A friend of mine just brought me two of those kiddie pools to grow plants in but I really like this idea of using them in conjunction with the grow bags. Good job and thanks for sharing.
I love the way you work your gardens and I love that you explain everything! Thank you.
Oh I love your site. You simplified growing and setting up grow beds. Thank you sooo much.
Amazing info. Your videos are some of my favourite gardening videos. Your methods and tips are awesome. Keep up the great work!
I just love your videos. They are so helpful. I'm a first-time home owner and it's wonderful to see all of the options there are so that I can choose what's best for my location. Thank you so much. 🙂
This is fabulous. I started something similar last year and I may bring it to the next level with your information! Thanks for the amazing ideas. I truly appreciate your efforts in making gardening fun and easy.
Thank you for sharing! Happy planting all! 😊
Great detail in this video. I have a number of these "kiddie pools" that are over 5 years old and have withstood year around South Florida Sun with no signs of deterioration.
My kiddie pools have lasted 3 years so far.. love this setup! ❤️🌱
Can't wait to see your stuff growing. I need you to come here and set me up!! You are so smart and creative!
Great job Dan, this is just the ticket to share gardening with my grandchildren. There yard does not drain well at all, this will resolve that problem. Thanks for sharing.
Iam new to all of this so I appreciate the videos they have help me. Thank you so much. God bless your family
Thank you kindly! God bless!
What a fantastic idea!
This is pretty amazing. I love the ingenuity that went into the design and the simplicity of the concept. Thank you for sharing it. I need to do a lot better with watering and this has given me some thoughts
Awesome idea, love your channel. Im currently taking a master gardener class , i enjoy sharing all your great ideas with my classmates. Thanks from Texas, Happy Growing!
Bless you, your property and thank you to the Sky Watch Gardener!
What a great idea I have few extra kid pools right now to start off with need to do this any extra garden space is a good thing
I was wanting to so something similar but with a large pond liner. Farming was originally just the task of draining a wetland & farming on it so having a wetland to drain of my own might produce the best farm in my neighborhood.
I love this! Thanks so much for sharing.
This is my answer! Thank you for this video!
I always learn so much from you! Thank you for sharing.
Very well put..happy gardening.
Awesome irrigation system setup 🤩 Thanks for sharing your easy gardening experiences!
Thank you! Cheers!
This is what i had planned also with wadding pools ,i like your grow bags. I like the blue. Kat
You rock. God bless y’all
This is a unique way to do in the back yard. Ours have a lot of rolly pollies /pillbugs so this is a great way to discourage some of the critters that might wreck havoc on plants.
Beautiful idea! Love it. Thanks
Thank you, best idea I’ve seen in yrs,
The jackery/SwitchBot combo is genius!
I cannot wait to see what you grow!
Thanks for this idea. I was thinking of doing this,then saw your brilliant idea.
This is wonderful. I've only been subscribed for a few weeks but have learned so much. Thank you!
Thanks for the sub and comment! Cheers!
Great work brother! Appreciate your knowledge.
I love your videos! Always giving great ideas
Awesome video ❤️ thank you for sharing your tips.
I'm going to buy a cart, and put 2 20 gallon earth bags inside the cart. Why? Because there is a much shade on this friends property, and the lil sunshine is literally moving across the yard.
Great idea! Thanks for sharing!
add 3in of cedar mulch and push it up around pools, this will help roots stay cooler on hot days.
Also I add small air stone to the water storage tank for many reasons(solar powered be cool) and try to to keep it shaded as much as possible, even a heavy tarp helps to prevent stored water from turning stagnant to fast.
Just my 2 cents. happy growing
Very clever, very inspiring. i will start with one kiddie pool and I think I will include one worm tower in the middle of the growing bag. Thank you.
Wow 🤩. Great job. Definitely new subbie here!!! Cannot wait to see the burlap and mulch. Super excited.
Awesome ...!!!...watvhing in from New Zealand ...!!..your garden knowledge is vast ..!!!
I use kiddy for many years for raised bead garden work very well.
Very cool Dan, just saw some pools several days ago, might have to get on this!
Recommended your channel on another site regarding raised beds on the cheap.
Thank you for all your efforts to educate and inspire😊
Thank you kindly! I appreciate the share and feedback! Cheers!
The best backyard garden I’ve grown so was using kiddie pools and reusable Walmart bags. Seriously. My wife finally told me to stop bringing vegetables into the house. I like your automatic watering method better. Thank you for sharing
Start selling/sharing them?
Tell me more, pls , about using Walmart reusable bags . Are they the ones material-wise to grow bags ?
I know I’m interested too!
Thought I was the only one that gardened with a head lamp lol! Love your videos!
That looks very useful 👌
Great great job!!! Thanks for sharing. 👍🏼
I did this as well...it's amazing!!!
Loving your videos and experiments, thinking right along the same lines, great to see the execution and great production quality!
Thank you very much! Cheers!
Tk you Dan, as usual for your videos. They're easy to follow and low-cost gardening tips. I'm wondering why you use the landscape fabric instead of heavy cardboard here. Your whole yard seems to be covered with wood-chips that you use to make more dirt. That seems to be another economical feature of your gardening which I would like to implement. Please advise :)
I'm increasing my garden size; creating a full-sized garden across the front yard of my small cottage size home. My young neighbor family is helping us with this project so we can be more self-sufficient. We will share work and produce. It's an intergenerational effort and we're excited to do this, thanks to your videos and some helpful comments from your followers.
I also use kiddie pools and grow bags but I add an overflow hole at 1 1/2 inches from the bottom. Living in Florida we have daily thunderstorms known as dog days of summer!
I'm going to use your idea , thank you, living in Florida too and it's either to dry or to wet
Thank you. That is what I was wondering. If you get a lot of rain won’t it collect in the pool and just sit there. The drain holes make sense.
Very nice upload friend, thank you for sharing love it 💙
Love a garden science experiment! I’m working on making an adobe block into a garden. Science is required! Good work Dan!
Will you please do a video of your project? This is something that I am very interested in.
@@lorirode-off763 I’m not able to post videos right now due to a lack of decent equipment. I also live right next door to a very busy rural road that’s extremely noisy and there’s no way to get good sound recording. We just bought this property around 4 years ago and haven’t gotten a lot done. I’m disabled pretty badly and I’m forced to go slow. But what I’ve been doing is building layers of manure (lots of farms and animals around here), leaves, grass clippings, coffee grounds, compost, cardboard. It’s not officially a lasagna garden but more like a large flat pile of organic matter. My 30’x50’ garden area used to be a horse corral on dirt that makes good adobe blocks. It was very compacted about a foot down and I can barely drive steel posts in it. But the previous owner never cleaned out the corral so lots of manure got trampled into the compacted soil. A neighbor used a small tractor to kind of level the manure and soil but couldn’t really till it. So I just started stacking the soil with stuff on top. My growing beds are made with concrete blocks, placed right on top of the layers and filled the first time with crappy purchased compost and garden soil from the big box store. I don’t till the soil much but for the first year or two I’m working good organic matter into the purchased stuff. I’m currently soaking my first official batch of biochar but I’ve dumped some ashes and charcoal from my fireplace out there. We’ve got very alkaline soil and water so I have to limit the ash. Every year is an improvement. I went out to check my growing beds as they warm from winter and was very pleasantly surprised to find massive quantities of earthworms going nuts breaking things down. This will be my first spring with what I consider to be pretty decent growing beds.
I encourage you to look into Korean Natural Farming and it’s offshoot JADAM. It’s a cheap way to make your own fertilizers from your home. I only utilize parts of it but it’s about rehabilitation of the soil. Making lactobacillus really helps soften soil and breaks down vegetation. I’m also investigating a variety of cover crops that I want to plant when the soil warms enough. The roots from sunflowers can grow 4’ deep and break up compacted soil, as do clover and many annual grasses like rye and wheat. I’m always learning something new and trying to adapt what I learn to my conditions and physical abilities. Military service was hard on my body and mind but working in my garden is my physical, mental and spiritual therapy. I’m only trying to get the necessary parts together to rehabilitate this chunk of desert dirt, full of excellent minerals and pretty fair drainage. I put all the pieces together, pretending that I know what I’m doing (because it’s all a giant science fair project) and I’m constantly amazed at how God makes my garden grow. It’s gonna take time and science isn’t for the timid in a garden. But eventually the organic matter will decompose and the earthworms will till the adobe soil in with it. Even if I screw it up with too many leaves, it’ll fix itself eventually. I want to make this soil live and then spread itself out onto the entire lot. The previous owner scraped the surface bare every year to “control weeds.” He murdered the soil by doing so. My job is to bring it back to life to control any weeds!
@@dr.froghopper6711 Wow!😳
I was able to 'see' your garden area, aka horse corral, and the progress you have made by your very indepth description!
That was a wonderful 'visit' with you 'at' your place!
Very well thought and engineered
Thanks for the tip on where to get these pools. Last year I paid a hefty price for them at Dollar General😳 I might need to invest in another Jackery just for the garden!
Love this!!! I use grow bags for everything and have used the kiddie pools but manually added the water. This automatic watering system will cut down on the amount of time spent everyday just on watering in our hot desert summers. Looking forward to seeing the progress on these gardens.
Thank you! Cheers!
I’m desert too! Biochar and hugelkulture are the best way I’ve found so far too minimize water use. I’m finding it very useful to just put my plants in the soil and mulch heavily. My plants just do better in the dirt so I’ve been doing everything I can to use the earth as my water bank.
@@dr.froghopper6711 I noticed that about my desert ground as well. Plants love it, if I can give them enough food and water.
I try to grow in the ground when possible. However, the ground is so hard that it takes a jackhammer and water to make any holes in the ground. So what I do is place a container with either an open bottom, or raised beds w/ open bottoms, or containers with holes that roots can grow through on top of the ground.
I do have some places where I am on concrete. There I have planter bottoms. I used to just use them to catch the water, but I noticed they stay moist longer if I put mulch or dried plant matter or soil in the planter bottoms, so that's what I do now.
Love it! Wish I was able to do that.
Yes I will make one real soon ..thank you 🌱🌱
Great job
Wow, fantastic! Thank you.
Just awesome! Thank you.
Damn I’ve been using grow bags for 4 years now and been trying to think of how to use a watering system. I use 15 gallon bags, found them to be plenty big enough for all my plants. One method I was going to try was using rain gutters and a wick in the bottom of the bags. My problem there was everything has to be level and my ground is no where near enough to deal with leveling. All seemed like to much work. But your system looks perfect for my needs. I just hope I can pull it off this year. Stay tuned.
Awesome video thanks for sharing
Aboustly love this set up
Thank you! Cheers!
Poppin grommets. I immediately thought of your other video. 🤣
So did I!!! I was THOROUGHLY expecting at least a cameo of it! :D Still made me smile just thinking about it though. Maybe a kiddie pool follow up?! :D hehe
Thank you for sharing! I am going to try find something you shared some how😂👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🙏🏽❤️🙏🏽
I’m new to your channel, let me say your RAISED BED!…is absolutely fabulous! Great lay out plan functional❤️👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 hands down! Great job from cold zone 6 Michigan🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶
This would be a brilliant idea to do with my trash can rain barrels. Recycle and reduce in one step
Nice sharing video
Original set up Dan living soil wicking beds love it thanks
I can't plant in the ground where I live (renting) so I bought a couple kiddie pools to "container garden" in and I was very surprised my landlord loves how it looks. It'll work until we buy a place💜 happy growing folks💜
Great build!
Very informative!! Thank you!!
Great setup 👌
Very innovative, Thank You
I also love gardening at night. I often take a black light with me to hunt for tomato bugs 🐛. It makes them easy to see and pluck.
Nice tip! Cheers!
MissJean63......I read if you plant catnip around your tomatoes, it deters tomato hornworms!! They hate it, so I've read! Never used it myself, but good luck! 😊( don't know about cats!)❤
Lower tray height of about two inches works well for me in Florida during dry or rainy days without regulators or tubing. Less work to refresh the water from a simple garden hose to prevent mosquito to lay eggs. Water in Trays dry up 3x or more faster during hot days. Becomes stagnant during overcast humid days when pests and fungi could easily develop + mosq. eggs. These could spread diseases over night from pests. Grow bags could develop mold but can be avoided.
Water filled up with pebbles or gravel in a lower height planter saucer could help............. Keep the garden enemies away before one starts to mutate exponentially.
great idea!!
How are these beds doing now Dan ? Have you done an update ?
Good job!!
Brilliant!
Amazing
This is great
I've seen solar pumps also for watering...
It's good to know I'm not the only person who gardens in the dark.
Very nice , you can rotate your garden and not halve everything come in at once. Thanks God bless have a great day
Love your content
Gonna be some big weed plants !
Love it !
Very nice
Really awesome 😎👍👍🌹
Thank you sooo much!!
Great info. I am a new subscriber and have enjoyed your content.
Is there a reason you didn't draw from the pond next to the pools? You would have the benefit of fish poop as well as the collection of rainwater. Additionally, it would be interesting to see a water return system, where after so much time of the bags soaking in the water, the excess water is returned to the reservoir. I could see this being especially beneficial to vegies like potatoes that are prone to rotting if left to soak.
