Love that your grand kids help. Great learning while having fun. I have started mixing in a cactus and succulent blend in my soil as not draining well. For most planters get a potting mix not potting soil. I don't remember what you had. Also I don't remember what you fertilize with but Greenstalk uses before blooms, Tiger Bloom. Then after veggies are blooming use Fox Farm Grow Big. Recommended soils are Happy Frog Potting soil, Pro Mix potting mix and Epsoma Planting mix. Or of course use what works for you! Love your mix of cats, dogs, chickens and gardening.
Hey there!😃 Hope the cactus and succulent blend helps! The last few years I have used Carolina Potting Mix in GreenStalks. It has worked wonderfully and I would fertilize later with some worm castings. It has worked every season. Happy Frog and Espoma are good brands. I have used both in the past. Glad you enjoy the variety on my channel. All the creatures and gardening really add to the quality of my life and the grandkids too!🥰
Oh my goodness I am so excited for you!🥰 I grow tomatoes every time! I think you will really like it. My favorite tomatoes are white currant and green doctors and they both produce a lot. Any of the smaller cherry tomatoes do really well. I have grown some larger ones but they always get eaten by something right before I pick them. There is some critter around here that has exquisite taste!😂
It’s so good to see you getting your hands (and your grands hands) in the dirt again! I need to get my GreenStalks going…..I have lots of things to put in them, if they survive the dang gnats! Arggggghhhhh! I’m working in it! It’s very frustrating! I want to get everything outside but we keep having frost warnings! TOO frustrating! It’s good to see your grands and your chickens involved! I want chickens so much….a friend just got some Java babies and she’s in love with them! I hope you’re feeling well! We’re hanging in…..or trying to! LOL! ❤❤❤
Love spending time with the grands! Oh goodness! Those gnats can be annoying! I'm sorry you are dealing with that. Hopefully the frost warnings will stop soon! Do you live close enough to your friend to go and visit her chickens? Yes! Hang in there! Planting time is right around the corner and you can get all the GreenStalks filled up!❤️

I ordered the pink for myself!!! First time I’m getting one. WOW tomatoes in there too? Or is this your first time you’re planting tomatoes in the GS?
Oh my goodness I am so excited for you!🥰
