"Pre-Dibbling" was my specialty in college
That was a million times more complicated than I thought possible. All that automation is unbelievable! Thanks for sharing.
Super interesting! Quite the outfit they're running there.
I used to run the Garden Department up at Home Depot in Eagle, Idaho. Super interesting to see this side of the Olson’s business. We’d get massive trucks of their plants every week.
yeah it was incredible.
Very cool Mr Ward!
I have a similar sized greenhouse by me. I just go and walk around sometimes because it’s incredible.
Sun patients are where it’s at. I love them especially since I have full sun.
That was really cool to see that whole operation. Thanks for sharing, Connor.
You have to be a mechanical technician to work in this type of green house. Probably spend more time taking care of all the machinery than the plants. Impressive. 40 acres of greenhouse, Wow! and I get excited about 10x20 greenhouse ha!
That is quite an operation they have. Incredible stuff.
De Zamora
very amazing to see the automation and the scale of the operation. something i found unexpected was that the cuttings come from Central America. -LM
Wow very impressed with the behind the scenes work involved in getting the plants ready.
One of your best videos
I love the ski-lift watering system. I was interested to here him say that the plants came in from Costa Rica. With Grapevines, there's a long period of quarantine before new material is allowed to cross borders.
Hi Loni! I thought that was interesting, too, especially since he said that they were received as unrooted cuttings? Shipping them must be tricky.
I had to watch again. Unbelievable, this green house operation👍
thats amazing that they can produce so much on just an acre
Wow! that was great to see. I wonder if that have to worry about plant diseases coming from the cuts that are being sent to them?
Wow, you can really see how hanging basket plants would expand productivity!
Love this video, would enjoy more content like this!
thanks. I need to do more of this stuff
Connor Ward definitely! It is nice to see how other people are doing things, such an impressive facility! if you are ever in Scotland and you wanna see how we do things give me a shout!
Awesome vid! Love learning about new things, and this was spot on! Thank you.
I had a feeling you lived somewhere in central/northern Utah. Olson's greenhouse is two miles from me. Great family.
yeah beautiful place there. Good folks.
Hi Conner,
From 1:18-1:27 there is a purple shower sprayer connected to a pipe that is watering having plants. It is made by Dramm. There is a version attached to a watering wand that employs that shower head available at Home Depot and other retailers that sell Dramm. I highly recommend it. There are others on the market but none compare to Dramm’s. It’s the product that put them on the map.
Dramm also produces some of the highest quality hose end lawn sprinklers that I’ve ever seen. I’m not just stating that they’re the highest quality on the market today, but their hose end sprinklers are of the quality that hose end sprinklers were in the 1950s and 1960s.
I recommend that everyone including those with built in systems to purchase each of these Dramm sprinklers:
1 ColorStorm Oscillating Sprinkler
1 ColorStorm 3 arm Whirling (revolving) Sprinkler.
1-2 ColorStorm Impact Sprinklers
1 ColorStorm Turret Sprinkler
While this seams excessive they are tools and each has different specialties. During the course of the height of summer, spot watering will be needed. Having these tools will fill the specific needs to complete you tasks effectively. Thought they produce a few other models, each of the products that I’ve recommended will be top tier performers and should last a lifetime.
For those who have large lots but no irrigation system I recommend a National Walking Sprinkler.
They are also built for a lifetime of use. I know people who’ve inherited them and have had them for life. You will still sometimes need the same stationary sprinklers for occasional spot watering in the height of summer but they are a great convenience compared to stationary sprinklers most of the time.
I don’t rep for either company. I just know how to spot quality when I see it.
Until now I didn't know greenhouses of this this scale existed, I'd never really thought about where nursery bedding or houseplants come from. It's wild to see the precision of technology that can be so successful in propagating plants. I wonder how much energy it takes to run a commercial greenhouse like this and how many out there run on completely renewable energy sources?
Incredible!
WOW!
So fascinating! That must have been a cool excursion for you.
Yes it was
Really interesting to hear about the restrictions on imported cuttings. I wonder why you can't ship them rooted? I'm curious how they hold up, are they shipped in water? Thanks for the tour!
Wow 40 acres is very impressive! I think it would be really fun to work there. I had no idea about the sunpatiens being bred specifically for sunlight, really cool info! Was the watering system a custom design? He seemed really proud of it, but I would be too!
I am astonished
"bright Utah Sun" LMAO
The Lawn Care Nut 😂 Don't hate. We take what we can get!
🤣
When Connor said that, I immediately thought of Allyn Hane in Florida. Funny that he commented.
🤣
Looks like a nice business! I always wanted a greenhouse to supplement my landscape business and grow my own annuals. But this looks like a ton of work. Guess sticking with growing shrubs, perennials and trees that need much less intervention and infrastructure will need to suffice.
Would be a nice business to run though, and easy to scale up with either more workers, automation efficiency, or expansion of greenhouses.
Awesome! Million dollar question: what’d it smell like in there?
Like humidity. Great fun that day
Very interesting, thanks
Super cool! Very informative! Nice video!
That’s pretty dang sweet bro.
This is really cool stuff, thanks for sharing.
What the of the roof transparen plastic and her in philioines is already have seeling that product of the roof.thank
Wow great video, learned a lot.
Dirty dirty
I need that kind of technology for my yard. I would love to have the irrigation run based on leaf temperatures
Very interesting. What i the percentage of native vs. non-native plants?
Wow thats really neat! Cool vid bra
Way cool
man they have a machine for everything! I've never seen one for making the paper liner plugs, that was pretty cool I like planting into those since they biodegrade and seem to help ease transplant shock. I thought he was joking when he said they're going to get a robot to place the plugs but he didn't laugh so I think he was serious 😅 I just hope they don't end up getting fully run by robots and machines! even though automation is obviously much more efficient in a larger operation such as this... It was cool to see the "ski lift" watering system for the hanging plants, and how many hanging plants they had, using their space wisely
dude out here with a rocking mustache
Connor... that was pretty awesome! This is only the 2nd time I’ve posted a comment in my UA-cam life (1st was the Oh Video). Seeing this video makes me want to quit my job and do something different. With that said, it’s not in the wheelhouse yet. Keep up the good work and I hope to having my place looking like yours in a couple years. Thank you!
Scott I know the feeling. I never used to comment on any vids period. Thanks for the comment.
Fascinating. Connor do you have a greenhouse or plans to use a small scale one in the future?
yes I do plan to get one. I need one bad
Wow, I'd totally go on a day trip with you and your family there. I know that we'd have a blast. Did you pick up many plants?
None that day
Good Video!
I was at the store last night with my wife getting flowers and all I could think is - What kind of operation is required to get ALL THESE flowers to the stores that sell them. I guess now I know 👍
it was so cool to see this operation.
Like watching an episode of How It’s Made with Connor Ward.
Very very interesting video….specially because I am trying to understand the process of propagating plants….thanks Jesus for the guy that is being interviewed, he just took it upon himself to answer questions that were never asked….I can’t believe that this Conor guy got the opportunity to be in a green house but had no questions except to say “ oh wow…this is a big place…oh wow…” one question should be “is there anything special about the cuttings” another question should be “ what is the mix in the little pods”
Moreeeeee plants... What happed to Rodney
Just down the street from me.
Aussie First 😁 what , a rerun ? 🧐déjà vu
Looks like a great time!
yes it was for sure.
First from Washington
USA
How do you find buyers for those tho.
This company sells to home depot Walmart and Costco.
@@lawnrebel I found a property for sale that had two huge greenhouses on it that was used to grow hops. Started looking into it but it seems like growing is the easy part. getting rid of it is the problem.
Down in Salem ehh?!? Good stuff!
That was pretty cool. So do you think that air pruning would be good for grass? That's why people aerate? Exposes the roots and the grass plant wants to spread out?
Yes exactly.
you coming over to my channel for your beat down are ya?
@@lawnrebel You better believe it PAL! 😂
Plugging with toilet rolls
Giving a plug to Olson's but as it turns out they have billions of seedling plugs already.
this is true. They do not need any more plugs
This is torture!! Free range plants only!!
Said no one ever...
First again!🤣🤣
George Popa ,déjà vu🙃
Wow. 3 comments in seconds
it needed fixing
Ant wait until there are places like that for weed
I will repost my comment to original video🤣
“Wow! I never realized greenhouses can be extremely automated. Great vid👍”
George Popa , déjà vu🙃
trevor muggeridge We are Back to the Future! Great Scott !
I am in the future, am I back or am I here now?😳🙃
