Вставка
- Опубліковано 23 кві 2017
- The people at Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden are doing a great job with their Community Kitchen Garden. They provide fresh vegetables to several groups around Richmond, Virginia. The garden continues to improve each year. This is a walk thru tour of what they have growing right now. We'll try to go back in a couple months and get an update of the progress.

Bobby, today someone told me that I'm the one that got them started doing hydroponics. Well guess what? You are the one that got me started doing hydroponics. Thanks so much!
Funny enough Bobby and you (Jeb) got me started hahahaha, I am about 90% done building the greenhouse and will then install the hydroponics and kratky beds :) So thanks to both of you!
My thanks for getting me into hydroponics and "more than hobby"-level food gardening in my backyard (and my garage...and my patio...and soon part of my front yard) go out to these UA-cam instructors/entertainers: mhpgardener (Dutch Bucket and Kratky hydroponics, greenhouses), Jeb Gardener (Kratky hydroponics), Khang Starr (Kratky hydroponics, grow rooms, peppers), and Albo Pepper ( DIY Sub-Irrigated Planters, worm castings, container gardening, urban growing maximization). It's amazing how much I have learned from just these four guys (basically a master class on growing plants).
If any of you are ever wondering if you're making a difference: you are.
My first set up is similar to yours, Jeb! I'm loving Kratky. However I'm planning on building a rail system similar to Bobby's in my new apartment. Small (hydroponic) world.
Hah good times. I am a Jeb disciple as well
So happy to see the two of you back
Glad you made it over there. I live about 15 miles from that area and have never dropped by. Been watching your videos for years and you've helped me out quite a bit. Me being a 100% Disabled Veteran, I'm glad you're continuing your videos since sometimes watching what your up to is all I'm able to do. Please don't stop! Many thanks!
Welcome back Bobby, very nice to hear you again, keep those videos coming, you were the one that got me started with gardening and hydroponics. You were the inspiration to many of us.
Yes, really glad you two are back! Great people, videos and I always learn a ton.
So glad your posting again. You are the guy that really got me looking into hydroponics!
Glad to see you doing videos again. I grew up in Richmond not far from Ginter. We would go there occasionally in the spring etc. My mother's memorial service was held there as she enjoyed the place. She has a bench there with a plaque we all chipped in to purchase. Glad to see they are doing so much with the vegetable gardening these days.
Thanks for taking us with you guys
Just hearing your voices made me realize how much I had missed you. Last night I watched a bunch of old videos, Great!! Hope all is well with you!
I was just thinking of you two the other day! So glad to see 2 GREAT people!! Luv ya (from here in New York)
Great video Bobby, thank you for sharing your trip with us.

What a coincidence! I'm here in Richmond (from Texas) for work right now! Small world. Keep up the great videos. Thanks!

So glad to see another video from you! I was just thinking yesterday how much I missed seeing your videos on a regular basis.
It's so nice to hear from you both, I've been worried about you...
Love your videos! Missed you guys, you know so much!
Bobby, we have a Community Veteran's Garden in Caldwell, Idaho. Its built raised beds for wheel-chair access for the vets to have some fun growing some produce and getting out. It's a nice set up. That's a nice labeled garden there. Thanks for sharing!
We're gearing up to do these here in Omaha to help out our developmentally disabled population....along with an indoor hydro operation for year around production....everyone is SO excited about it...and whatever produce my clients and their families, and our staff don't consume, will be donated to area food banks.
Nice to see you posting again! Funny enough been watching old webcajun videos telling the wife I might switxh to his style once I retire lol. I even watched the add for this video.
Right up the road, great place to take the kids!
So happy you are back. :)

I was so excited to see you on you tube again. Are you still doing hydroponics. I followed your instructions a few years ago just with a tote and had wonderful results. Very exciting to see how fast things grow. So Happy you are together.
love it great stuff thank you
RVA! Woot! Whole Foods in short pump has on & there are many strewn throughout the city.
So happy to hear from you! I have been dying to know, what is the floor covering you
used in your big greenhouse?
Looks great
Hi Bobby, I'm growing the aswad eggplant for the 1st time this year. The guy at the garden shop told me they are an Iraqi variety so they're supposed to hold up in the heat. he also told me they can make a 3 lb eggplant. that seems a little strange to me because I thought eggplant were like squash - you want to pick them when they're smaller to get the best taste. I dont know alot abut cooking but Ive been told eggplant get bitter if they go too long. Thanks for your Vids!
You were right near my house wished I could have met you guys
Great video! I like it, and channel as well!
VERY NICE!
This is awesome! Thanks for the info and tour/walk around
I never knew there was pokchoy I just thought people were misspronouncing bokchoi lol
Great tour, thanks! The galvanized tanks and panels look great and seem like a good idea, but they can leach dangerous amounts of zinc into the soil and it can end up in the produce. Using anything galvanized in aquaponics can kill all your fish, and pretty quickly. Zinc toxicity is so dangerous in fact that you shouldn't even put galvanized screws / bolts / nails in your mouth to hold them instead of using a pouch. Definitely something to be aware of for gardens.
very cool place
I thought it was a fluke, You are alive!
OMGosh...Richmond, Va. Mhpgardner.....I was born here and have all my immediate family there, but know live at the beaches in Tampa/St Pete, Fl and visit a couple times a year. In fact, almost went up last wknd and would've loved to meet you. I probably would've been upset knowing you were so close to our families home near here. I've chatted w/ you before. My dads family is from Kittrell and Henderson, N.C. as you stated where you are or were! I'm hope to see more posts from you in the near future. I thought you were invited to travel internationally to help set up your growing methodologies, but I may have you confused w/another youtuber. Take care!
I am laughing so hard about the eggplant! 🍆
I usually just let the ads play because I mostly watch using PlayStation and by the time I stop what I'm doing to get to the controller they are over.
Ill join the rest saying Yay you are back
Nice vid Bobby
Another cool garden in VA is Thomas Jefferson's vegetable garden at Monticello.
Won't those metal containers and corrugated sheets heat up badly in the summer ?
They may reflect heat.
Bobby, how have you been. I need to try to come down and see you again. Last time I had a big tree fall the night before. Take care. Tim Beverly
Doing good Tim, still dodging storms like everyone else.
Bobby ty
Miss you and Susan. Hope you are doing well.
If you find good plans for that table, Please let us know. Thanks
Hops Cool
Lovely to see you both, do you know how navajopa / Bernard is?
I am sure it was mentioned but the table is octagon.
👍
its been a long time since you posted a new video
Do you have any suggestion how to get rid of the spider mites on tomatoes. I think they won this. Any help is appreciated.
Nice little show garden, seems like more form than function though. Not that there is anything wrong with that.
Where are you? i need to come visit!
Gone to long .. hope you come back and stay for a while..

Huge tubs to grow little lettuce plants. Typical of people who don't know what they're doing decided to have a bright idea.
