Man. Highly appreciate this. I live in south Las Vegas and thought I’m sure no one makes videos on UA-cam about gardening in Vegas. And boy was I wrong. And happy I was wrong. I’ve been binge watching your channel. I subscribed
Ive been using the Rejuvenate compost for over 4 years. Ive brought in over 15 yards of the rejuvenate to my yard here in vegas. Its really great stuff!
I got five CY recently. No others items like the castings or pumice.
Id appreciate a Vegas/desert playlist, its my favorite place in the world
I watched the whole video and I live in OH. Thanks John
I live here in Vegas, and I want to grow my own food,especially now with these insane times we’re living in! I’m glad I found this video of yours,so grateful ! Thank you thank you✨🙏🏻🥰🤙✨
I bought the mj mix in February of 21, it sucked!! After a season of almost no growth or vegetables I tried dumping my half barrels of the stuff into my compost pile and a month later my worms were gone, and I found a railroad spike. The guy was very nice when I bought it, he even gave me more then i asked for for no extra cost, but it wasn’t worth it.
Thanks Again John for the great Info you gave me this morning , it was a real pleasure to have met you Love this video and I will be visiting vira grow to purchase my soil thanks again.
Awesome. There's a compost facility in Norman, OK close to where I live. 10$ a truck load. I still add imputes, but it helps a lot in volume for raised beds.
I didn’t have a choice in living here and it’s taking me a long time to make the best of it but this information is a good start to get me liking where I live!
John I went to Vira Grow Today and bought some dirt, !!! Thank you so much for the recommendation. it was out in BFE but well worth it. it was awesome. Can't wait to try it.
Excellente information and thank you for sharing
Great tip on saving when buying in bulk.
Great video. Bought the Tomato Lady soil from Leslie and it was good value but this sounds even better. Thanks.
Thanks, just moved to north Las Vegas and have watched a couple of your videos, have been so helpful.
Thank you so much! I have been watching your episodes for the past year and your videos are so educational. I recently had a few large planter boxes installed the the soil provided was horrible so I will move that out and replace with your recommendations because my veggies are hurting! ; )
Thank you!
I used to live in north Las Vegas! Wish I'd known about this place.
I live seventy (70) mies from Vegas, but was going to go to the Sonoma Soil place, and now you’re saying Houston has the best soil?
I love your show.
Thank you
I also called John Rose and intend to get that juicer as well.
Thank you tons for this video. I Live in a hotazz part of AZ and have been thinking of ways to build soil, from Bokashi composting, vermicomposting, and urban composting using food waste and paper products (newspaper, cardboard). This place can surely provide a good base for these soil amendments I've been working on. I love you man.
So glad I stumbled across this video. I only wish I'd have known a few years ago what I just learned. I attempted/failed my first veggie garden in Vegas after moving here from western where we had great soil. I used a basic garden soil from Cheyenne Rock which was obviously a desert-rookie mistake. I'm now planning a large cactus/succulent garden (about 300 sq ft) in a different location and was looking for somewhere to buy bulk perlite and vermiculite. I'll be dragging my trailer to ViraGrow this weekend for the ingredients and mixing up a well-draining concoction. Can't wait to get it going. Thanks for sharing.
You can also bring your own bags to fill. You will have to buy a min 1/4 yard.
John, I need your help! I live here in Henderson and all the trees we planted along an area of the yard have already died and i think i only have two left that might be able to save. How much do you charge to come out and do an assessment or consultation to take a look at our situation and give us a guide or set of instructions to follow so that moving forward we wont be loosing a couple thousand on buying these trees. I just want to make sure we are doing what is needed to set us up to hold for the years to come and I really want to get a list of Trees / plants / privacy shrubs that you eould recommend for this area to grow and thrive. I really want to talk to someone who is an expert and who has been doing this for years and of course especially knowledgeable of growing in this area trees and shrubs. Please advise when you can! 🙏🏻❤️
Hey John, around the 20 minute mark you start talking about the amendments you would recommend adding to the rejuvenate mix. What about amendments for the MJ mix?
Hey John you in Las Vegas fulltime now? Man, I wanted to visit my humble garden here in SF bay area.
Hi John. You stated in the video CA has great places for compost. I'm in Orange County. Do you have some recommendations? Also for top soil as well? Thanks and keep up the great videos.
John, do you recommend using organic alfalfa pellets from the feed store?? Its $20 for a 50lb bag!
Great video!! Thank you
Hey, I took the tomato ladies class but you have so much info do you teach a class or have a book out?
I got the MJ soil mix and I'm a little disappointed. It looks nice and dark but very dense. It feels crusty like clay when the top is dry. My store bought bagged soil mix with manure seems to out perform the MJ soil mix. Maybe I'll add other amendments to the mix to see if I can improve it.
I also bought some mj mix, it sucked!! The customer service when I bought it in February was amazing. They filled my pickup more then i figured and charged me less. But nothing grew well in it, as i was digging thru a half wine barrel i found a railroad spike. So i hoped I could mix it into my compost pile and the worms could fix it, but after 2 months i turned the pile and my worms are gone!!
Hey what's up ? love your channel And all the knowledge that you have to offer .Do you have any sees I can grow in South Florida
John .....u r good!
I'm starting my own compost with manure and mushroom substrate. Any advice?
Hi John I live in Fountain Valley CA, where would you recommend to buy bulk around here? Thanks John. Love your vids, informative and you are pretty funny. Always entertaining.
When did you buy in Vegas?
John, Do you know of a place like this in the Northern Sacramento Area?
Thanks dude. Why is the MJ mix onlyfor outdoors not indoor
It's probably contaminated with nasty shit.
I'm guessing it's because normally indoor mixes are sterilized while this is a living compost.
Where can I find some in miami?
Wait. Arent you the juicer guy too?
Dang wish I would have seen this when I was there, was so close. Thanks 😊
Very informative! Almost too much info, but excellent points! Thank you!!!
That gs compost looks like the crap I got from Lidls they called it soil conditioner it was supposed to be yard waste but it had chipboard from old kitchens and I even found some silicone that had solidified in the plastic nozzle.
I would recommend staying away from that junk.
All commercial windrow made multipurpose compost is absolutely rubbish and devoid of nutrients.
John, with all due respect none of that is soil by any stretch of the imagination
Call it what it is, compost which should be used as an amendment to the native soil in order to increase it's organic matter
Compost as an amendment can provide an initial kick start for the soil food web while not forgetting to add clay also
I would love to see John talk more about BUILDING soil and less about buying soil and amendments. The biggest problem that we have in America is the loss and destruction of soil through the use of chemicals. Every square foot of soil has all of the nutrients and minerals in it that plants need if it has the soil biology it needs to access those nutrients. John used to talk about fungal dominated soil, but never (in any video I saw) discussed how to grow your own soil with a common mycorrhizal network. John please plan a trip to visit Gabe Brown or at least drive over to Kiss the Ground in Venice, CA. Repeatedly buying products like compost or worm castings is silly. If you build healthy soil those things are already there. See for example: ua-cam.com/video/npu6GBbB-Oc/v-deo.html
@@angermanagemnt693 Very well put... Living roots are the key
he has lots of videos on building soil
zemadeiran thanks for the links!! You make really good points!!🌱👍
@@angermanagemnt693 I think you are over generalizing!!! Not all areas have the quality of soil you speak of. Areas that have higher rainfall will have far less nutrients and mineral than areas that receive limited rainfall. One very important aspect that nearly everyone overlooks is there should always be something growing in our garden soil and never bare...without plants there will be very little microbial activity...nature works on symbiotic relationships!!!!
Decent info video--invest in a windscreen for your microphone--or place a sock over the microphone....
