    I just learned that it's a game changer (in an organic garden) to leave ONE perennial plant intact in your annual beds! This leaves a root system in place for the colonization of the AMF...and then no dig or till as much as possible 🤯. Hth!

    This information is very good especially for self- watering planter boxes. … I do square foot gardening and now we can did channels along the edges of each square about 6 to 8 inches deep. Then lay in some fertilizer that our transplants can reach later in the growing season.

    Great video as always. im a landscaper and always looking for more information to improve myself. I know a lot of your videos are around inside plants or veggies but im always converting what you say into information about trees and shrubs. could you do a video on aeration/watering tubes? iv been trying out VermisTerra HydroSpirals. they seem like one of the best.

    Hi Ashley!
    Love to watch how you and child enjoy about plants and gardening. I watch almost all of your videos on plants and gardening. Even one of my friends has made his garden by following your video! Your effort reflects how passionate you are. Publishing 835 public videos within 8 years is really appreciable. I found your website too while surfing your youtube channel which is also on gardening niche. Great! I am a webmaster and also love to do blogging and youtubing like you. I am the leader of the largest active blogging community in my country. Do you know how good your prospects are? The selling value of websites built on gardening niches is very high. The gardening niche is one of the top five most viewed video categories on UA-cam. But as a youtuber I am a little bit disheartened after watching your youtube view count for the last 8 consecutive years and the visitors of your website as well. However, you are giving effort. And hard work always pays off. To get that you need to work a bit more moderately. If you agree I can share with you some opinions based on my UA-cam and blogging experience. I don’t want to bother you and interfere with your work. Feel free to let me know if you are interested. I’ll be there for you. Golam Innovation.🪴🪴🪴

    As a little geeky fact for you, in humans, and I presume animals as well, if one mineral is in excess it can cause a deficiency in another. For example, an excess of magnesium will lead to a calcium deficiency. I found it interesting to learn that this seesaw can happen will plant minerals as well.

    Black stems of my tomato seedlings of both my Black Krim and Midnight Snack are always a factor something I've noticed several seasons now I think it's normal for the 2 and knowing black stems of seedlings also is a sign of a lack of nutrients.
    Also I have noticed that in a couple seedlings volunteers and I did allow a couple mature into productive plants.
    Thanks for your teaching.
    Also very certain you said sunflower can be planted in late fall for the following season.
    Correct ?
    As someone else said no don't try it.

    Your information on mycelium is really interesting. It makes me wonder if it's worth buying the kind made for cannabis. The specific varieties are easy to get but I wonder if it helps in fabric pots and soil I usually only use once. I plan to reusing the soil in my Earthboxes after adding worm castings and organic amendments.

      @teac117 Місяць тому +2

      If there's any consolation, the amount of P that most garden packages/guides tell you to apply accounts for the fact that most of the orthophosphate from decomposition will be bound in the soil above. Once saturated, it'll slowly gradiate downwards to where the roots are. But of course, that is technically over-application of P and has runoff issues, so newer guides should be cautioning you to put it in smaller amounts around the area of exploration. I honestly don't think I've come across that, but I don't pay much attention to these things.

    Interesting but depressing for me, the soil is so sandy my way that regulations cap P to 2% in domestic fertilisers to spare the waterways. Are mycellium worthwhile in a container garden?

    An important note, no mineral or nutrient acts on its own there are always cofactors involved and the complex soil community does move nutrients around over time.
