Oh my goodness, I am so very surprised you gentlemen are able to get much to grow... If you're going to give your audience the information to grow their own food, why aren't you giving them the proper information. The information you are giving them is not only the dumbed down information, but at best, it is incomplete as well.... It is not my purpose to be disrespectful, but here is what I know: 1. The Apple - The part you leave out here is that it is always best to put your seeds onto a wet paper towel in a Glad storage container for several weeks to begin sprouting, making sure to spritz with a bit of water at least once a week.. Then once sprouted, place them in a pot of soil, to a depth of two-three times their length (sprout facing up), and then place them in the freezer for 3-6 weeks. It is always best to advise that they begin this process in November so that by spring they are ready to plant (After the last frost date). Something else you left out is that some apples trees are self pollinators, but for the most part apple trees should be planted with a companion of a different variety of apple in order to produce fruit (two apple trees of the same variety cannot pollinate each other) 2. The Tomato - Heritage or Heirloom means that the tomato seed has usually been passed down from generation to generation and are always GMO free, retaining its genetics from the original mother plant. This is important when growing organic, pesticide free vegetables or fruits. Placing your seeds in water is to remove the pulp around the seed. Simply placing them into a glass of water a stirring them is not going to do the trick here... It is best to place them into a jar, half filled with warm or tepid water and a tight lid. Shake it really well several times and allow to soak over-night. Shake some more, then strain into a mesh strainer or cheesecloth (double thickness), and rinse well. Then place the seeds onto a dry paper towel to dry. Store your dry seeds in a envelope marked with the name of the tomato and whether it is a determinant or indeterminant variety. Store in a cool dark place until March at which time you will begin seeding your tomato plants indoors under grow lights. 3. The Potato - For the most part you give good information... It is best to store your chosen seed potatoes in a cool, dark cupboard or cellar until they begin to set their eyes (or chits)... The part you have incorrect here is that when you cut your potato apart, with at the very least one eye or chit per piece, you must leave them out on a piece of paper bag or newspaper for a day or two so that the cut flesh can heal over. Then and only then can you place them in soil to grow your potatoes. Placing them in soil with newly cut sides will cause them to rot in the ground and you will not have any potatoes come harvest time. Also, those very long chits that you had on your potatoes, needed to be buried in the ground all the way so that they can grow. Also, you need to continue building or mounding up the soil around your stock the taller it gets so that you can continue to have more tubers growing... also, always remember that when planting your pieces of potatoes, the chits need to be facing upwards growing into your plant and the roots will continue to grow and produce tubers giving you a bountiful harvest. 4. Avocado - First things first... You need to use a seed from a ripe avocado, (the seed you used was not ripe)... Next, always remember to wash all the avocado meat off of your seed. Any flesh left on your seed will cause it to rot. Then with the pointy end of your seed facing upwards... place four toothpicks into the seed as if looking at a clock, place them in the 12, 3, 6, & 9 positions. Then with the fatty end facing down, place it into a cup of non-chlorinated water (rainwater is best). Only the very bottom of the seed needs to be submerged into the water (from the toothpicks down) as this is the end in which your roots will sprout from. This will take approximately 4 to 6 weeks (sometimes longer) in a warm sunny spot, like a window... It is also important to remember to make sure that the bottom of the seed must remain wet at all times or it will die... also the water needs to be changed every couple of days making sure NOT to use chlorinated water. 5. Salad Onions - Did you notice that the roots on your salad (bunching) onions had been cut off? You need to place your salad onions into a glass of water at the very least 2-3 inches deep (preferably not chlorinated water). Your onions will continue to regrow their tops for you, over and over again for as long as you want them, so long as you keep cutting them off as you need them. If you want them to grow into larger onions (not sure they will since they are more like scallions then anything), but if you want to try... you will need to allow their roots to grow first, and then bury them in good, draining soil up to the bright green tops in early spring... Regular onions take sometimes more than 100 days in the ground, I am not sure how long these will take without doing a little research as I have always just grown them for their tops... When I want new onions I just buy new bulb sets from the gardening center and grow them from those... for re-growing, I only have ever just left them in the glass of water to harvest the yummy top. You only have to remember to change the water every couple of days. Also, after a while their potency does dwindle and you will need to start again with new onions. 6. Carrots - good rule to remember... a carrot will not grow from a carrot. That means that if you cut or snap off a piece of the carrot, a new carrot will not grow from the end of the carrot... But it will grow from the tops of your carrots. Cutting your carrot exactly the way you did in your video (leaving at least 1-2 inches below the greens). Then you place your carrot tops into a bowl of water and allow the green tops to get bigger before transferring them to any soil... I do not know a lot about carrots as I have never tried to regrow them beyond the kitchen experimental stage. Maybe another of your watchers can put more information in here for the rest of us... I would suppose though that you cannot put your piece of carrot into the ground until it has grown new roots, or in this case new green tops since the carrot in itself is a root. 7. Garlic - Here the information you gave is good information, except that you really don't need to strip off any of the paper in order to plant. What you should do though is to separate all the cloves from your bulb, and choose the largest cloves to replant. Plant them exactly the way you did, and water well. Here in Colorado, we plant our garlic at the end of September up through the middle of October... but they should be planted before the first frost. If they begin to grow before winter sets in, no worries... the growth will die off and the clove will go dormant all winter and begin to grow as soon a spring comes. I do know that the cloves need the winter months of very cold weather in order to grow so remember to plant them on time. I also know that when they are ready to harvest near the end of June or mid July, the tops will begin to turn brown and they will begin to wilt over. That is how you know they are ready to harvest. Also, sometime around the middle to end of May, you will sometimes notice that a flower head will begin to grow out of the middle of the plant. It is best to cut these off near the bottom so that the plant can give all of its energy into making nice big bulbs rather than putting all of its energy into a big flower/ seed head, unless you are growing them to collect seeds. (These bulb heads have a name, I am not familiar with, but I have been told they are edible and are very good). Good luck with regrowing your kitchen scraps... and remember... "If every family would grow a small garden, the world would not go hungry." .... Happy Harvest.!!!
Even their garlic info was off. I planted 3 garlic gloves in my window sill not long before the freaking winter solstice, and they are growing extremely quickly and are now quite huge - just a month later. I'm talking a cm or two every day that it was sunny. I live in Ottawa, so we've had some very short days in the last month. Oh and I didn't chill them. However we did have that really cold period.... but like. I have heaters. One right at the window sill. And they've been growing consistently, no dormancy periods. (I have a south facing window, but still.)
YES! In fact, I stopped watching them at 3:06... And also there is something about the tone of their voices --- like they didn't really want to be there and the "smart" one was slightly bored but still decided to show us dummies what to do! I couldn't take it ....😔
mirzamay yep the ends have seeds and I just plant them seeds up with about 1/4 inch soil above, also when you make sandwiches sometimes you have spare slices etc, plant those..... I had so many tomatoe plants last year that I was giving them away to whole town to have their own tomaotes. BUT you have to have organic tomotoes, they have to smell like tomatoes, I have had to buy tomatoes for 3 years and they can be grown indoor over winter in a sun facing room in large pot....
Thanks so much for sharing.. I can't tell you how many times my mom used to throw out garlic that grew green stems! I have taken all of your tips and will be breaking the family habit by starting my indoor garden! Lol thanks again - you guys are great
Also you can put some soil in a broken egg shell and sprout a seed. Any seed you want, be it mutant or be non hybrid! Hey let the guys try new things. I learn by making mistakes. But l have started boc choy and celery in my compost. The local rodents ate the tops. In Michigan, l threw several rotten mangos in the compost. To my suprize, three mangos shoot up. My house was to dark, so they died in two weeks. But it was fun to see what came up! Thanks for the video!🌲🌲🌲🌲🌹🌹🌹🌹🍀🍀🍀🍀💜💜💜💜💚💚💚💚🐥🐥
I planted three garlic cloves that were sprouting just in my window sill. In December. From the get go they grew a cm every sunny day. The shoots are huge now, and it's only been a little over a month. Didn't freeze 'em, and I'm growing them indoors. Just put it in my south facing window sill. I've also grown onion indoors like this and they've grown incredibly fast too. Hell I even take shoots from it while it's growing and eat them - for a regular at home supply of extremely fresh green onion.
With the tomato you don't need to get the seeds out. You can just cut them into a slice and place it into soil. The rest will rot leaving just the seeds. Just a helpful hint.
6:52 Is complete bullshit. If you think you're being misinformed look at the actual plant guys face!! XD If the Green guy is talking it's wrong 99.9% of the time. His name is actually Bruno he just forgot. :/
You dont get big round onions from those, you get like spring onions with massive heads on them, iv done it before, still quite good though as you can use one spring onion per meal instead of several.
This video is a wonderful idea I've been doing this with my children for years more people should try it to teach their children where their food comes from we called it a recycle garden back in the day.as for the avocado you can just planted directly into Pete Moss or coconut soil. After you propagate the avocado you can move it to regular soil and you can even prune it to keep it small and keep it as a household plant on your sunporch The plant can be placed outside in the summer a small warning though if you put the plant out while it is too small squirrels will pull it up and eat the base they love avocado pits
Recycle Garden thats such a nice idea , i love it Im gonna do this for my kids. starting with carrots which will only grow the greens so they wont be edible, but i dont think growing onions like that will do much.
Hi guys You can do the paper towel method with avocados Wrap the avocado in moist paper towel, put it in a plastic bag. Date and label. Put it on the kitchen counter. In a few weeks you get a root and a shoot. It’s the easiest way to grow avocado from seed and rarely fails.
IMHO the avocado was sideways best to notice the top smooth and a bit pointed, and the bottom is the more flat part of the seed and poke toothpicks in the sides and set in glass fill with water..continue as described..
Lol at what you were saying about the apple..... my mom's house ended up with an apple tree growing in front of it randomly. The apples on it were the size and appearance of a Macintosh, however they were much sweeter. We guessed that someone threw an apple core into our garden or a raccoon who'd eaten an apple core shat there. Unfortunately though the second year it produced apples a storm knocked it down and so our housing complex got rid of it because it was growing too close to our house. Ah well. We got one season of yummy apples right at home at least!
Nice video! :) I like to buy organic Green Onions/SpringOnions and use the green parts in cooking, and then take the white part and root and keep it in some water (not too much), and allow the scallion to grow its roots more; it also will continue to grow more green parts if kept in a place with good Sunlight. After harvesting the Scallion a second time, I will use your method of planting the stem or root ball in soil to allow the plant to re-generate itself, preferably outside. It's amazing how much I can get out of like just two dollars worth of Scallions from the grocery.
They are called Heirloom tomatoes and referred as Open Pollinated tomatoes who’s seeds will give you the same tomato plants as the mother plant year after year.
Or you could keep your apples in the fridge and then when you finally get to actually eating them after a couple weeks, pull the seeds out, stick them in wet paper towel and in about a week you'll have sprouts. Worked for me anyway.
Penny Thatcher buy some tubers or rizones in the make or chineese store and plant in a a lg. pot water . must start after the last freeze. cannot take frost or freez?e.
earline alinsunurin ok thanks so much! I'm good with the frost I live in Southern California so it's all Sunshine here and Fire. If they can survive the drought we'll be great. Thanks again for your wonderful response.🌱🌾🍀🐝🐞🦋🌞🤓
most cucumber seeds in the store are way too young to sprout. Rarely you would find one old enough to have seeds with a harder husk. If the husk is hard, maybe you can use it to sprout
Carrots will grow well, well green tops, not actual carrots though. Just plant the whole potato, those sprouts are way too long and spindly, they have grown in the dark. they should have been left to chit in a light place so they produce short strong sprouts. The apples are a long term project, better off buying a tree of a variety that you like or can use.
apples do not need to freeze to be able to sprout, tomatos are better if the are an heirloom variety which simply means they are not hybrids and will be true to the parent. wow the avacado needs to have the broad end suspended in water
As long as you have some kind of winter an apple tree will grow, I live in the UK and just put them in the fridge not the freezer for about 5 months on we wet tissue paper in a sandwich bag.
Its called false stratification and it increases your germination to 95% I have been starting and growing old fashioned fruit trees for almost 30 years and the freezing for 60 days absolutely works! After you are known in the area people will constantly call to pre order each year.
ravvraj I live in the uk and have just started growing things, 8 month back I planted 9 Apple seeds and 6 of them sprouted, I did not freeze or chill them in the fridge! 8 months later they have grown between 4 to 6 Inches but only 4 have made it this far, are they meant to be bigger after 8 months? Growing technique are used was to put them in some tissue on the window ledge and when they started sprouting planted them into 2 inch plant pots, the remaining ones that survived I have in four-inch plant pots sitting in my conservatory.
we bought a bunch of sweet potatoes and they are sprouting, with no soil, no sunlight, no water! I'm planting them tonight! any ideas, suggestions? nice video!
I know you didn't ask me but the time to plant sweet potatoes has passed if you're in the US. They take a LONG time to mature and must be out of the ground before the first freeze. I plant them around March/April here in Texas.
i took one of the sprouting potatoes, cut it in half, set it in drinking water, and today, its making white roots! im not really doing anything to it, except changing the water and putting it in sunlight. any ideas?
this sprouting potato will be in water, indoors, not in the ground. just to see what happens- im not trying to get a 139+ lbs. of potatoes. just another project. it is growing nice green leaves, and white roots are forming!
Charles Halifax you do realize that they are from Canada right? And up there everything freezes. So yes some people do have to do it so stop telling people you don't have to it depends on your region
Charles Halifax garlic does best if they do get a cold/cool period, that induce roots growth and make the clove split and grow into a bulb of garlic as we know them.
You just put the avocado pit the wrong way first you need to peel the skin off then the bottom brown part of the pit is what needs to be in the water not the way you just demostrated in the video
You duo not need to freeze apple seeds. The avocado pit do not do it side ways. The green onions will not grow to be bigger onions they will remain green onions. And the tomatoesyou do not need to take the juice off. In fact ours best of you take a slice about 1/4 inch thick and bury 1/2 inch deep to start your tomato plants. Riper the tomato the better when doing this.
What's with all of the nasty comments from people? Lighten the fuck up know it all's. This is a good video for beginners. All of the information they have given is correct and your shit will grow. Good work dudes :)
Hi , there is a great show on youtube on how to grow sweet potatoes, He gort many plants from 3 sweet potatoes he got from the shop, , each time a sprout got to 13 inches the cut it off and put it in water, then later planted them out in the garden, you can also do it in pots.
bro just slice your tomatos , and put each slice in a pot with soil and soil thinly ontop of your sliced tomato, keep in kitchen window seal and 15 days later you got seedlings. thin them and repot boom you got tomato plants.
Why the hell would you cut an apple in half that way in nick every damn seed in it? bizarre! You can cut right upbove the roots of green onion and it will regrow...
Just subbed 👍🏻 Can’t wait to see more..as I’ve been planting stuff Mini peppers 🌶 I have 6 plants 🌱..2-3” tall Grapefruit next and lemons 🍋 I have to large mango 🥭 trees in my earth box..Lanai. I live in central Florida 🌴☀️ Hope you have 2019 videos..
The amount of wrong information isn't surprising- they live in the city after all. Also, that avocado tree looks sickly. Two years is too long in a tiny pot like that.

I did this with a spark plug from my last tune up and I had a new mini-van in the fall......A pretty blue one.
The best thing about this video is the comments..... I learned so much! Thanks Suzy Cowan!!
The tension between these two is too much. They seem like they would hate each other as soon as the camera is off.
Lmao i thought i was the only one that noticed.
Adam Stewart
I couldn’t tell if they just hated each other or really really wanted to fuck
YES! In fact, I stopped watching them at 3:06... And also there is something about the tone of their voices --- like they didn't really want to be there and the "smart" one was slightly bored but still decided to show us dummies what to do! I couldn't take it ....😔
@@boobear9944 lol
Lol so true...
I saw another guy on you tube who cut his tomato into slices and threw the slices in his dirt and it grew a bunch of plants. It s really cool.
+mirzanay I do something similar, we sometimes have the ends that no one wants to eat, so I just plant them.... grows great tomomatoes.... easier
+Janina Simons huh I never thought of that. I suppose some seeds would have to be present, or can it grow from just the end like onions and celery?
mirzamay yep the ends have seeds and I just plant them seeds up with about 1/4 inch soil above, also when you make sandwiches sometimes you have spare slices etc, plant those.....

This works best with cherry tomatoes throw a bunch of half rotten cherry tomatoes out in a fertile spot and they'll pop up like weeds

I've actually grown a avocado tree by planting the see straight into soil. And yes avocados take years before they are producing fruit
Thanks so much for sharing.. I can't tell you how many times my mom used to throw out garlic that grew green stems! I have taken all of your tips and will be breaking the family habit by starting my indoor garden! Lol thanks again - you guys are great
I've never gotten avocado pits to sprout in a glass of water. I used compost, straight up. My guinea pig's manure did the job very nicely.
I love how he expects a potato to grow in that tiny abomination of a pot
Ha!!!
Hahaha😂👌
My thoughts exactly, terrible video
they will grow.. but not taters.. need at least a 2.5 gallon bucket.
Sees the eggs on their counter top: HOW TO GROW CHICKEN OUT OF EGGS!
Ethan Penfold
Chicken seeds need a warm, gentle butt; preferably feathery.
Also you can put some soil in a broken egg shell and sprout a seed. Any seed you want, be it mutant or be non hybrid! Hey let the guys try new things. I learn by making mistakes. But l have started boc choy and celery in my compost. The local rodents ate the tops. In Michigan, l threw several rotten mangos in the compost. To my suprize, three mangos shoot up. My house was to dark, so they died in two weeks. But it was fun to see what came up! Thanks for the video!🌲🌲🌲🌲🌹🌹🌹🌹🍀🍀🍀🍀💜💜💜💜💚💚💚💚🐥🐥
Lol
I saw a video where someone hatched quail from store bought quail eggs.
I planted three garlic cloves that were sprouting just in my window sill. In December. From the get go they grew a cm every sunny day. The shoots are huge now, and it's only been a little over a month.
Didn't freeze 'em, and I'm growing them indoors. Just put it in my south facing window sill.
I've also grown onion indoors like this and they've grown incredibly fast too. Hell I even take shoots from it while it's growing and eat them - for a regular at home supply of extremely fresh green onion.
With the tomato you don't need to get the seeds out. You can just cut them into a slice and place it into soil. The rest will rot leaving just the seeds. Just a helpful hint.
And I think he meant to say Heirloom not Heritage. He got the reason wrong anyway.
I usually just dry the seeds because I don’t want my tomatoes to get rotten from the flesh.
I've planted a few batches of store-bought garlic and they did awesome without a freeze.
The guy with the hat sounds like I'm watching John Malkovich talk about growing vegetables from groceries
Guys tomatoe seeds need to be actually fermented and CLEANED if you want them to store. And squeeze out the goop.
a lot of missinformation

I've had garlic in my hot kitchen window grow.. lol
I just cut up some tomatoes and planted the about half a foot deep and they seem to be growing pretty well...
2 things... You put the avocado put in wrong... The onions won't get bigger since they are green onions
Also the carrots won't grow another carrot, it'll just grow the seeds for the next year
Lee Van Dyke yes the avacado part made me cringe so hard
@Lee Van Dyke, Carrots are roots, so the carrot can get bigger.
is a japanese sweet potato a root?
WHO PUTS IN AN AVOCADO WRONG
This video is a wonderful idea I've been doing this with my children for years more people should try it to teach their children where their food comes from we called it a recycle garden back in the day.as for the avocado you can just planted directly into Pete Moss or coconut soil.

Hi guys
You can do the paper towel method with avocados
Wrap the avocado in moist paper towel, put it in a plastic bag. Date and label.
Put it on the kitchen counter.
In a few weeks you get a root and a shoot.
It’s the easiest way to grow avocado from seed and rarely fails.
IMHO the avocado was sideways best to notice the top smooth and a bit pointed, and the bottom is the more flat part of the seed and poke toothpicks in the sides and set in glass fill with water..continue as described..
FYI: You can take a slice of the tomato with the seeds and plant it and you'll get lots of tomato plants
I want whatever they're smoking 💀😂
awesome! Thanks for the tip on the apple seeds...Was doing them wrong under heat and light...into the freezer they go! ty!
You put the avocado seed in the water the wrong way. The point side go up and you have to take the skin off first.
Lol at what you were saying about the apple..... my mom's house ended up with an apple tree growing in front of it randomly. The apples on it were the size and appearance of a Macintosh, however they were much sweeter. We guessed that someone threw an apple core into our garden or a raccoon who'd eaten an apple core shat there.
Unfortunately though the second year it produced apples a storm knocked it down and so our housing complex got rid of it because it was growing too close to our house. Ah well. We got one season of yummy apples right at home at least!
Once you place them in the freezer how long do they stay in there? Before transplanting them into the ground.
Where do you get older heritage tomatoes though????
Nice video! :) I like to buy organic Green Onions/SpringOnions and use the green parts in cooking, and then take the white part and root and keep it in some water (not too much), and allow the scallion to grow its roots more; it also will continue to grow more green parts if kept in a place with good Sunlight. After harvesting the Scallion a second time, I will use your method of planting the stem or root ball in soil to allow the plant to re-generate itself, preferably outside. It's amazing how much I can get out of like just two dollars worth of Scallions from the grocery.
Thank you! So much knowledge that we need NOW!
Is it possible to make videos without a 'rocking drum/guitar track in the background?.
No. That is mandatory.
Lol! Knew this video was a joke as soon as he tried to ‘wash the goop off the tomato seeds’ and accomplishes nothing.
No love seeds to grow tomatoes yes seeds out tomatoes but I dried mine out then the month beginning March I plant them
can u tell me more about the garlic do i water it ! do i wait until the real frozen winter to put it outside ? more details please thank u so much
Ive planted tomatoes by just cutting slices and slightly covering them with soil..no need to clean or separate..
You can just sense thru the video how much the guy with the hat can't stand the other guy. Lol
Lol 😂 I was so confused until I looked at the date on the video!
They are called Heirloom tomatoes and referred as Open Pollinated tomatoes who’s seeds will give you the same tomato plants as the mother plant year after year.
I am looking to grow celery from the grocery store. But this video was still helpful.
put the toothpicks at an angle and not straight into the avacodo seed
Hey guys would the bottom of a large onion grow also? say a chunk 3/4 inch thick?
Are you sure csrrots can grow this way?
😂😂😂 . ..."just get paid , just get paid"
Guys,
Thanks for all in one vedio about planting veg.s
You just cut those apple seeds in half, doofus.
Ha!!!
Can you just split it open to hasten the process? Would doing so cause some problem with either growth or taste?
Fantastic video guys we love it!!! Well done..
You won't grow a new carrot, but if you are lucky you will get flowers and then seeds... to grow new carrots.
those eggs... do they grow into a chicken plant?
do a video on the plant behind you under the light please!
as far a carrots go, is it only the top part that will grow or would chunks from rest of carrot grow also?
Only the greens will grow. There is a lot of misinformation in that video unfortunately
how long do you leave the apple seeds in the freezer?
He said the plant outgrows the pot so prune it? Why not move it to a bigger pot? or put in ground. lol how did I get here?!
Or you could keep your apples in the fridge and then when you finally get to actually eating them after a couple weeks, pull the seeds out, stick them in wet paper towel and in about a week you'll have sprouts. Worked for me anyway.
Do apple seeds go in the freezer or fridge
They guy with the hat is my asmr god! Im getting so many tingles i almos fell asleep lol.
Green onions take 25-30 days to grow
Why does the guy in the dark green shirt remind me of Roy from the office?....
for the tomatoes u can just plant the slices
LOLOLOLOL where's the hotdog tree?
I've been wanting to grow my own turmeric. do you have any tips?🦋
Penny Thatcher buy some tubers or rizones in the make or chineese store and plant in a a lg. pot water . must start after the last freeze. cannot take frost or freez?e.
earline alinsunurin ok thanks so much! I'm good with the frost I live in Southern California so it's all Sunshine here and Fire. If they can survive the drought we'll be great. Thanks again for your wonderful response.🌱🌾🍀🐝🐞🦋🌞🤓
do u put the garlic pot in the freezer to grow it?
hey men what is your knife is it a opinel??
Can cucumber seeds be planted right away or do they need to be dried?
most cucumber seeds in the store are way too young to sprout. Rarely you would find one old enough to have seeds with a harder husk. If the husk is hard, maybe you can use it to sprout
Lots of hate energy towards each other. However, they tolerate each other only because of the work.
Tip to get tomatoes. Put the seed on a paper plate. Leave it sitting out. The plate will soak in the goo
These guys bleed swag
That's what l have been going thanks
Carrots will grow well, well green tops, not actual carrots though. Just plant the whole potato, those sprouts are way too long and spindly, they have grown in the dark. they should have been left to chit in a light place so they produce short strong sprouts. The apples are a long term project, better off buying a tree of a variety that you like or can use.
Avocado... you can suspend it in water, but you have to do it point up!
Which way is up for the garlic?
you were chopping the onions in small bits and then we saw them cut in half?
apples do not need to freeze to be able to sprout, tomatos are better if the are an heirloom variety which simply means they are not hybrids and will be true to the parent. wow the avacado needs to have the broad end suspended in water
I want to have fun with these two..
U dont need to freeze apple seeds 😂😂😂
Jon Sharp nice
As long as you have some kind of winter an apple tree will grow, I live in the UK and just put them in the fridge not the freezer for about 5 months on we wet tissue paper in a sandwich bag.
I've tried planting apple seeds and the seedling always dies
Its called false stratification and it increases your germination to 95% I have been starting and growing old fashioned fruit trees for almost 30 years and the freezing for 60 days absolutely works! After you are known in the area people will constantly call to pre order each year.
ravvraj I live in the uk and have just started growing things, 8 month back I planted 9 Apple seeds and 6 of them sprouted, I did not freeze or chill them in the fridge! 8 months later they have grown between 4 to 6 Inches but only 4 have made it this far, are they meant to be bigger after 8 months?
Growing technique are used was to put them in some tissue on the window ledge and when they started sprouting planted them into 2 inch plant pots, the remaining ones that survived I have in four-inch plant pots sitting in my conservatory.
we bought a bunch of sweet potatoes and they are sprouting, with no soil, no sunlight, no water! I'm planting them tonight!
any ideas, suggestions?
nice video!
I know you didn't ask me but the time to plant sweet potatoes has passed if you're in the US. They take a LONG time to mature and must be out of the ground before the first freeze. I plant them around March/April here in Texas.
i took one of the sprouting potatoes, cut it in half, set it in drinking water, and today, its making white roots! im not really doing anything to it, except changing the water and putting it in sunlight.
any ideas?
this sprouting potato will be in water, indoors, not in the ground. just to see what happens- im not trying to get a 139+ lbs. of potatoes. just another project.
it is growing nice green leaves, and white roots are forming!
I did that in a big pot last yr.recently I had to dump the pot BC got infested with these creepy orange in black bugs
good to know.
i have the sweet potato in water and in dirt, in a window sill.
the water potato is growing abit, the dirt potato is also growing a bit.
How you will have a growth from a seed that it was cut in half???
whut? you don't need to freeze your garlic before planting them, it does nothing.
Charles Halifax right. I have garlic growing now that I plopped right into the soil and kept watered.
Charles Halifax you do realize that they are from Canada right? And up there everything freezes. So yes some people do have to do it so stop telling people you don't have to it depends on your region
growing aspargus . 9growing asparagus
Charles Halifax garlic does best if they do get a cold/cool period, that induce roots growth and make the clove split and grow into a bulb of garlic as we know them.
I think hard neck needs a freeze. Soft neck no
that avocado seed XDDDD!
It would be a good idea to do some research, as each veg has its own way of planting and when.
Grow share and encourage.
You just put the avocado pit the wrong way first you need to peel the skin off then the bottom brown part of the pit is what needs to be in the water not the way you just demostrated in the video
They clearly planned this episode while super high...
In 30 years you’ll have new apples!
You duo not need to freeze apple seeds. The avocado pit do not do it side ways. The green onions will not grow to be bigger onions they will remain green onions. And the tomatoesyou do not need to take the juice off. In fact ours best of you take a slice about 1/4 inch thick and bury 1/2 inch deep to start your tomato plants. Riper the tomato the better when doing this.
Is this a Troll video? So much wrong...
If you want to get a fruit tree the best way is to use shoots
Instead of seeds
Awesome ideas ! thank you :)
What's with all of the nasty comments from people? Lighten the fuck up know it all's. This is a good video for beginners. All of the information they have given is correct and your shit will grow. Good work dudes :)
why are you planting that potatoe in such a small pot? thre will be no space for new potatoes!
Hi , there is a great show on youtube on how to grow sweet potatoes, He gort many plants from 3 sweet potatoes he got from the shop, , each time a sprout got to 13 inches the cut it off and put it in water, then later planted them out in the garden, you can also do it in pots.
Maybe he used the small pot for DEMONSTRATIVE purposes only?
My avocado tree is is only few months old. Its just as big with green leaves. The seed was planted wrong. Root do not face to the sides.
Nice video Evergreen
Thanks for the vid. Quick question; what video editing software did you use?
When I saw the avocado part, I had no doubt any more. They were high as fuk..
bro just slice your tomatos , and put each slice in a pot with soil and soil thinly ontop of your sliced tomato, keep in kitchen window seal and 15 days later you got seedlings. thin them and repot boom you got tomato plants.
Why the hell would you cut an apple in half that way in nick every damn seed in it? bizarre! You can cut right upbove the roots of green onion and it will regrow...
Just subbed 👍🏻
Can’t wait to see more..as I’ve been planting stuff
Mini peppers 🌶 I have 6 plants 🌱..2-3” tall
Grapefruit next and lemons 🍋
I have to large mango 🥭 trees in my earth box..Lanai.
I live in central Florida 🌴☀️
Hope you have 2019 videos..
The amount of wrong information isn't surprising- they live in the city after all. Also, that avocado tree looks sickly. Two years is too long in a tiny pot like that.
Ashley Smith The presenters look like they need to have a bath!!!
Ashley Smith it's almost as if he said that in the video......
Dorian Payne no no, Ashley lives in the country and "knows her stuff". That's why she's here.
So true! My avocado tree is only 5 months and its as big as theirs
Should be noted you will not get apples or avocados for at least 4 to 5 years afterwards.
I planted the eggs and got a beautiful chicken tree.
