Ok ill use it i get stuff from Amazon i can do that you do so much for us. Thank you. I d order seeds from you i try to support you b cuz you have helped me in ny gardening
Keep in mind that a 3 cubic foot bag of peat moss costs 3-4 times more on Amazon than at local stores. They cost $12 per bag locally.
Will you be offering your seeds there??? If so I’ll hold off on buying them at Home Depot and wait!
@@fastechsystems404 but for some it’s worth it to pay a little more if it’s going to benefit someone who has helped us in so many regards :)
@@desmondandlisadiaz3003 Some of us don't have the money. We compost leaves.
You showed such a great level of explanation filled with experience. Thank you.
Thank you for this video!!!! I couldn’t decide and walked out of the store empty handed! Just the video I needed! Thank you for getting straight to the point! And most importantly saving me money!!! Much appreciated! Keep up the great work!!!! Love your videos!!! I’ve been successful so far with my tomatoes, basil, cilantro, and lettuce! I’m excited to learn more!!

Took your advice from earlier videos and went with a 50/50 split on leaf compost and a potting mix for my container garden with lime and fertilizer mixed in depending on the plant. So far the results are great in early growth up here in zone 5b around Chicagoland. Really appreciate the level of detail you go into with your videos. I'll for sure continue to support your store and channel! Already introduced your stuff to my aunt haha.

I started making Gary's recipe a few years ago and it has been just fantastic! Used to be equal parts topsoil, compost and peat, but now I do equal parts compost and peat with half a part perlite (I bought 2 giant bags - like double dog food bag size - for $50 online last year and saved a fortune, and it was delivered right to my door) and it seems to agree with my plants and my climate. I'm longing for the day when I can go back to raised beds, but this is a great solution in the meantime.
So good to hear! Nice latter mix.

This helps, good to know I could add peet moss to my flower beds to make it lighter and more drainable; not forgetting the perlite and granular fertilizer. Great cost-saving tips.
That will work. Good luck.

great video. I had bought 2 3 cubit feet of peat moss and 4 bags of top soil so this helps me out to make my own mix. I just don't have compost yet. I'm working on that. Thank you Gary for this video. Definetely helps to make some container mix. I'm doing a mix of both this year container gardening and earth beds. Now if only this weather would be better. Still got frost for 3 more nights.
I know whats with the weather.

Thank you for this Gary. Every year Aldi has garden soil in April and I am always in there piling my buggy high. It's 2.99 for 1 ct foot which is way cheaper than similar at Home Depot. I use that stuff in my raised beds. I re use my old soil in pots too with amendments and peat moss. Your videos have helped me save money because all those high dollar name products are super pricey and so many get confused thinking they need "raised bed soil" when they really don't .
Pricey and so confusing. And its like 3 companies at the most just using different packaging.

Thanks for this I'm growing a bunch of hot peppers this year and I was not ready to live like I'm homeless for 2 months because I needed to buy a ton of expensive potting soil to plant all my peppers
Thanks for a great video! I learnt a lot about the different types of soils that I used to find confusing previously. In terms of cost savings, I dont see much when comparing to a triple mix that we get here in Canada for $4 with 25L. I am putting together a garden bed and so needed a lot of soil.
Thanks! I'll create a container mix with soil we dug up from creating a new flower bed.
A great way to do it.

Yeah, I had gone to Home Depot earlier today and bought that Peat Moss and some of the top soil and some raised bed mix then mixed them all three together in my raised bed I just built. I had already put cardboard and yard litter and small limbs and an old bag of cedar mulch I had from a couple of years ago, in the bottom of it. The raised bed came out very nice. Planted 4 marigolds in the front part of the raised bed to help deter some pests. I will sprinkle some of the plant food in it tomorrow. Can't wait to plant all the seeds I bought from you! Thanks again for all you do. Peace and Good Fortune and Good Health to you and your family.
Nice and light and fluffy, isn't it? I can't get over the difference! I bought a few bags of their organic mushroom compost to mix in 1 per raised bed... nice stuff for adding on.
@@joanies6778 oh, I will have to look for the organic mushrooms compost when I'm there next time. Hope you have great success also.
Thanks a great way to do it. Thanks for the order and if the seeds give you issues, let us know. Stay safe.

This was so helpful! I can't grow in ground so I grow mostly in containers. I have been spending so much money thinking I needed bag soil. My husband bought me a bag of peat moss and I was convinced he didn't know what he was talking about. I have to apologize to him. Thank you so much.

I used top soil and garden soil along with peat to make a raised bed mix. I amended the mix with a 3-5-4 fert, Epsom salts, and also watered occasionally with fish emulsion. It was not the best garden, but it grew. This year I got the beds ready and the amount of worms and little critters is amazing.
That works. I would cut out epsom. It really can be lightly watered in like 1x a month if not less. Over time I found less is needed. Good luck.

I just built a new 8'x4'x8" high raised bed. I haven't built a new bed in a few years. I tried to buy leaf gro but it's not available in my area. I did forget how expensive it can be as you said in your video. I highly recommend that anyone who is building a new bed FOLLOW THIS VIDEO. It just makes so much sense. You're on point again Gary.

This is a great video! I get a dump truck load of black dirt brought in, a dump truck load of composted cow manure, and purchase peet moss. I add my compost to the mix. I have still been buying potting mix (where I live it's $12.99 for 2 cubic feet! For standard miracle grow potting mix!) now, you good sir, are going to save me biiiiiiig bucks !!! I'll be making my own from now on !!!! I did a huge expansion on my raised beds this year and will be having 4 dump truck loads of goods delivered (2 of each) a load of black dirt is $140. And I'm getting the manure for free because I provide supplier with eggs and veggies for free. (My surplus) barter is great!
You are doing it right and Love the barter! We need more of that.

But did you get a ton of weeds?
@@mousiebrown1747 I did but I have learned that if you cover it with plastic, sprout the seeds, give it a mix, and repeat once more it drastically reduced the weed issue. One load of the manure was more prone to sprouting because it had not reached hot compost level the load that did get to hot compost was MUCH better with just a handful per pot per season.

Thanks Gary. Just in time. Dug 30 sq, ft. in a new area to plant strawberries this morning only to find it was solid clay. Not one living organism - no worms, no bugs, nothing but unplantable dead soil. Have to switch to building a raised bed tomorrow. This will help me do it at a much more reasonable cost.
Good luck. And it will help with cost.

Whaaaaaa? It seems to kill or damage everything I put in it. How do you make it work?
We've made 2 batches so far this season. Lol we mixed it up in a little swimming pool for young kids. I was using a fork and had it in a big mound and my wife said I looked like Richard Dreyfus in Close Encounters. We both enjoy your channel.
LOL. That's exactly what I used! We had a strong wind and it blew into my yard... had a few holes in the bottom, so I assume someone had it at the dumpster to be picked up. So I thought, heck... I can use that to mix my garden soil with a pitch fork. Worked great!
Already went out and bought some bags of mushroom compost, mixed equal amounts of previous year's raise garden bed soil. I love the mushroom compost! For new beds in pallets, I mixed 1/3 dirt, 1/3 peat moss, and 1/3 bag organic raised garden bed mix left over from over a year ago. (One has mushroom compost, too.) For a no dig sunflower garden over newspaper, I used 1/2 leftover raised bed mix and 1/2 peat moss, then threw in some vermiculite and fertilizer. It's all an improvement as far as texture. Well, time will tell what the plants like best.
My lettuce and spinach transplants in the pallet bed with mushroom compost are struggling, but hopefully they will bounce back. I planted cabbages and kale in a different pallet bed, covered them with row cover and fencing to protect them from the freeze and winds... last look most of them have perked right up. I think they must go through a little shock when transplanted. Fingers crossed!
LOL Youll see a blue kiddie pool in my compost area. Thanks for watching.

First off, let me say, your videos contain s wealth of knowledge. Watching your videos got me started with three 5 gallon buckets in 2015. Now I am up to twenty five 5 gallon buckets. I notice in this video the container mix does not include top soil, past videos you did include it..My question, why the change? Thank you for all the videos, I have pages of notes from seed starting to seed harvesting and everything in between. THANK YOU.
Nice expansion. No real reason for the change. You can do it and it works. There are just so many ways to do things, sometimes I change. Keeps it all fresh. Very glad to help. And nice work on your garden.

Gary, thanks for these videos, so far I have made $70 on my plant sale and I still have a lot left.
That is so good. Next year, as people will know you, you will make more. Hopefully the virus is managed then too.

I’ve found that Kellogg raised bed mix works well for me, but it can add up. Next year I might try making my own mix, but my beds are pretty much well established. All I really need each year is just to top my beds off.
Right set up is the most cost. Going forward... just topping off with homemade compost.

This is a great video. I have a large tub that I use to mix my own garden soil. Same ingredients... larger amounts. I use a 1cf bag of top soil (which is 57 cents at end of season sale at True value Hardware), 1cf bag of generic "manure and compost" (97 ¢, you can spent $6 to $8 on black cow... but why?), about 1/4 bale of Peat Moss (typically I can get this for about $10 at TSC), 2 handfuls of organic fertilizer (which I buy from box stores for $1 (small bag) to $7 (20lb) a bag on clearance when they put Halloween stuff out... I buy A LOT), and depending on what I'm planting... I sometimes add a 1/4 cup of Epsom Salts, eggshell, spent coffee grounds, DE, bait fish, oyster/ clam shells, beer 🍺 (slug lure...be careful), chopped mint, chopped garlic, chopped hot peppers, and composted chicken manure. Fresh rabbit pellets and worm castings I use frequently is my plants are showing signs of stress or disease.
End of the season sales are great! You have a nice system down.

Jea S wow, prices in your area are great. My TSC doesn’t have any peat moss. I have to beg a greenhouse for a bale, but sometimes they can’t spare it.
Great Info
Thanks

Amazing! You just saved me a whole wack of money.
Good, worth my $55 then. It really bothers me when I am at the stores and see the cost, as peat is basically the primary component.

@@THERUSTEDGARDEN I know! I do wish you made this video a month ago 😂. I'll know better for next season though, huge thank you!
Thank you so much for a great and very detailed video. I'm going to make my own potting mixes as you recommended to save some money. I want to plant Aloe Vera in containers and really appreciate to have your input for the ratio of the soil mix because this plant is a succulent which its roots can be rotted if the soil mix doesn't drain well. Thanks
This should work. Good luck.

I needed this video so bad. Im just starting out so im still in the stages of "So whats the difference between seed starting mix and pottong mix?!"
Yeah.
Starting mix is usually just peat and vermiculite. Potting mix can have a bit of other stuff in it

This video is exactly what I needed to watch, thanks Gary. I’m very new to gardening due to pandemic. I’ve made that container mix exactly minus the added compost. But when I planted the vegetables and watered it, the container filled up and was not draining. Now I know to wet the peat moss before putting it into container.🤙
Yeah. Peat floats dry. Crazy. Good luck
