Best video I have seen on growing lavender. Thank you for sharing
I’m with you!! I don’t have a farm but I did want to plant lavender in a large bed. I have killed about 26 lavender plants and wasted lots of hard work and money.
Thanks for posting. What kind of compost do you use? I have clay soil. they all die on me.
Thanks for sharing such great insight into your growing challenges! We have clay soil as well but really want to grow a field of lavender and this is bar far the most helpful video I've found. Thank you!
Thanks! Good luck!
Thank you! We are in the process of clearing away all cotton wood and brambles from our 2 acres and I was hoping to grow a 1/2 acre of lavender. Unfortunately we have clay soil as well and I’ve been watching every UA-cam video I can find, looking for ways to successfully grow lavender with our soil conditions. So thankful for your advice and to see your success!!
Thanks! It's been a real challenge for sure.
Thank you! I live in San Diego with clay soil and was about to make the same mistakes. Easy fix!
if it helps: Lavender loves crappy soil. Literally. I have mine in pots, and my soil mix, is basically 1/4 soil, 1/2 perlite, 1/2 coarse/chunky sand, and if i have some lava rock ill throw that in too, and some lime cause lavender likes alkaline soil.
This is such a helpful video. Thank you!
Very helpful! Thank you!
How do you cut the grass right up to the landscapiing fabric in your fields?
very informative video. What is your row spacing center to center? It looks about perfect. Most recommendations are 5' but I like your setup.
It's actually about 8' on centers
Hello,
Thank you for the nice video. We are actually starting a small lavender farm :) It looks like the way you covered the soil avoids any water from coming to the plants. Do you need to water them once in a while at the base, or how does it function for you? Thank you!
We only watered by hand until the plants were established. After that, the rain is enough
Such Patience has paid off!
Congratulations!
