    This series will be awesome. Can you also maybe add topics like understanding fertilizers bith liquid and dry? What to watch out for when buying them and other gardening things. How to progress through the season. How to succession plant. How to plan out your garden. How to set up an urban composting program for your garden. How to spot and treat disease.
    I'm sure I have more ideas but those have plagued me. I know it's been covered by a lot of people, including yourself, but having it al wrapped up in a nice bow in a series would be awesome.

      @alariderusa410 2 роки тому

      Yes I have avoided peat moss for 10+ years now and been fine. Way back in the day it was the primary ingredient. Instead I use a mix with pine bark mulch, sand, clay, topsoil or cow manure when I have it. Add Biotone or any good fungus. Add some chopped leaves set out for 6 months. Amazing roots in only 4 months.

      In North America, peat moss is mined as a sustainable product, as there are tens of millions of tons available. I don't use it because I don't like it, but please explain to me how taking peat is "disastrous" for the environment, since it's "widely known?" What does peat in a bog contribute to the environment, and explain to me how harvesting it is "disastrous?"

    I just found this page but I wish I'd found it a week ago. I just put in a couple raised beds and I wasn't sure what to put in them, so I mixed equal parts potting soil and topsoil. I figured the topsoil would help it hold the roots good but the potting soil would help it hold the moisture in. I'm hoping I did it right.

    Thank you so much for this video. This is my first year doing a vegetable garden I have 4 raised beds 8 ft beds 4 ft wide 10”high and I have filled them with card board bottom layer leaves small branches around the yard and then a layer of straw and topped them off with 3 bags of manure compost 4-6 bags of garden soil that I got from Lowe’s. I was on the last raised bed and I saw that the garden soil bag said not for containers or raised beds now I have spent about 300.00 on bags of garden soil and I died a little inside thinking all of my work and efforts and money were down the drain. Yesterday I bought 3 bags of potting mix per bed to mix in so that added another 100.00 thinking that will save my mistake. I couldn’t find anything anywhere that said it would be ok don’t panic but I think your video said that it’s ok to use the garden soil in my raised beds and even though it was 5 yrs ago I’m going to take it as an ok.. thank you and I subscribed!!

    My tomatoes have had end rot and have barely produced in 5 years. I had raised beds constructed because I thought it might be an issue with my soil. I live on a cotton and soy bean farm. My lawn was part of that field a few years ago. The soil drains poorly and I am in Northern Alabama. Our Summers are incredibly humid. I hope this raised bed works.

    The extra cost for Potting Soil is because the potting soil is sterilized by heating the soil to bake it.
    This prevents and fungus or pathogens from spreading a closed container environment.
    Of course added perlite cost is factor into the price too

    Weirdly potting mix where I live (Bulgaria) is the cheapest. I'm going to use it to improve crap soil before planting a hedge.

    I put in new raised beds this year and that vargo stuff sucked. all the dirt washed away and it's nothing but wood chips left. I'm thinking of just going with plain topsoil.

    I used potting mix and raised garden bed soil 1:1 bags to my raised garden beds. I watched a video that you could do this for tour beds. I hope it was okay.. I’m now noticing I have gnats all over my pots and beds :(

    The difference between potting mix and anything with the word soil in it is potting mix does not have soil in it. Soil is a mixture of sand, silt, clay and organic matter. Potting mix is a mixture of bark, peat moss, vermiculite or perlite and lime is somettimes added to raise the pH. Nutrients will not adhere to potting mix ingredients so you would need to fertilize more frequently in order for the nutrients to be available to the plant roots (nutrients rapidly leach through the potting mix).. The components of soil (sand, silt, clay and OM) will hold on to nutrients where they are more available to the plant roots.
