I loved this video! I loved that you got straight down to business, and didn’t make me listen to two minutes of intro like some channels do. Your info was helpful, interestingly presented, and thoughtful throughout. Thank you so much for creating this!
Fast forward
😍 finally! i found someone who does this kind of videos without talking so much! thank you!!!!!
Loved most of this but you have cool weather plants with hot weather plants. The cool weather plants( broccoli, cauliflower, carrots and radishes) will just bolt and not produce anything if you try to grow them in the summer heat with plants like tomatoes and zucchini. Peas are spring and fall but beans are summer plants.
Every layout is great. I have four 4'x4' beds built this year, so you've saved me so much work. I just need to find a substitute for radishes since no one in my house likes them. Cheers!!
I love you guy, whatever country you're from with that cute accent. All of us commenters here should do a quick fundraising to send you a gift as a reward for your generosity of spirit. I planted my first tomatoes today in my brand new polycarbonate greenhouse, and I had your garden planning in mind when planting. Yours is a great contribution to a green planet. Kudos!!

FANTASTIC -LEARNED MORE HERE FASTER THAN MOST OTHER VIDEOS!
I have only just discovered your channel. Thanking for them as I find them informative on this method of planting. Many thanks Annamieke from New Zealand 😊
❤❤This was awesome. I finally was able to get some insight on what goes where. Now I can tweak it from here. THANK YOU!!!
This is the best gardening layout information on UA-cam.
Thabk ypu so much for displaying this so clearly!!! I was wondering if you had another chart one with potatoes? As we need to plant potatoes, tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, lettuce, green beans,squash...
i'm starting my first garden in a community garden plot this year and I really wanted to work with companion plants so this is perfect thank you! I will for sure check out some of your other videos, sq foot gardening is exactly what i needed thank you
!!!!
AWESOME!!!!!!!thank you, so needed this, quick, simple and straight to the point.
Need to watch and rewatch many times, so much helpful information.. thank you!!
I am definitely going to use the Greek salad layout!
This is the best video about companions plant I ever watched, amazing and thank you.
Wow, thank you! Glad you like it!
This is exactly what I needed because each bed has all my favorites
The best video on companion plants. Love it!
Just wanted to second the mustard suggestion in the fast-growing garden- nothing will get you more excited about harvesting your own crops than the smell of ready mustard! Im not even a huge fan of mustard spice- but the smell really gives you that victorious feeling of succesfully growing something that is 100% recognizably food. they were the first of our plants to b ready for harvest And the Last of our plants to give up the ghost! Not to mention they manged to shrug off every problem that came to our garden (these were my first attempt at growing anything ever so these plants faced. A lot of adversity) one even managed to bolt in the face of the most volatile week of weather that recently passed through! Wonderful little veggie!!!
My mom shook off their seeds at the end of the season and had many many volunteers this spring!! Not even April yet and I just got a huge bag of them from her garden. I think they're delicious and am so glad they do well in our colder climate.
@@pr3ciousara that sounds amazing!!! Ours has just begun to flower and the vacationing honey bees are having a blast!! My dad even wants to tfy to make "Southern Wasabi" by trying to make paste out of the root like they do with the actual wasabi plant in japan! Ill admit im much more excited about making some homemade mustard seed mustard than spicey wasabi paste loll 😅
I loved this, ty I will be moving in January and plan to garden in my backyard so this has given me many ideas
Hi I watched your video over a year ago and i appreciate all your knowledge and help! thank you for the amazing content on companion and squarefoot gardening
I'm here on my birthday watching this for the 10th time a year later from the posting date, which was also my birthday. Thanks for the clear visuals and explanations on the gardening layouts.
Omgosh, Thank you so much!!!! I’ve been struggling with layouts versus what I can plant beside what and you gave me great insight. Thank you!!!! - I subscribed and I hope you have an amazing day!
thank you! this is excellent - I am a total beginner but watching this inspired me
Excellent!! So appreciative. 😍😍 This explains perfectly what and how K need to plant!
Thank you so much! I am going to use these with my students in our school garden. Also, I appreciate your thought process that you shared via the video, extremely helpful when learning about all this.
WOW! What an amazing video. Thank you so much for all of this great info!!
Excellent Video, straight forward and easy to follow. I love, love, love this information- very excited to use information this week!!!! Bravo.....
This is really helpful! I’m starting my first raised bed square foot garden this year, so this is really helpful! My garden is south to north facing. I was thinking of growing peppers and egg plants to the south and more of the bokchoy and lettuce to the north. Hopefully things goes well!
North is on top 😊
This is an amazing video. Thank you so much. I love your graphics.
These are great! I just found out that my landlady is building me two 6 ft by 2 1/2 ft raised beds, so I'm excited to maximize my space. I planted in containers last year. I didn't have to worry so much about companion planting or set layouts then. I could just move stuff around. :) I ordered the book, too!
That is awesome! So happy for you! What plants will you plant the most? :D
@@SmallGardenQuest probably zucchini/summer squash and legumes. My zucchini did really well last year in the spot where the new beds will go. I really like summer squash and got a couple fun varieties to try this year. My beans and peas didn't do well last year, so I'm eager to try again. I'm also going to plant a couple more indeterminate tomatoes.

How are u growing cool crops next to hot crops?
Thank you for this great video! I ordered the book to keep me on track.
Great information boss 💯
Excellent! Your video was just what I needed. Thank you! I just subscribed & look forward to seeing what other videos you have on Square Foot Gardening.
very nice video and graphics, very helpful, thank you!
My tomatoes need water 2x/week, but my peppers only require water 1x every two weeks - won't the water from the tomatoes drown the peppers?
thank you so much for this video!!!! it was exactly what i was looking for - the square foot layout mentioning the companion plants. Yay! Muchas gracias
This is a very helpful video. Thank you for the inspiration!
thank you. God blessed you. It is the best video on this matter.
Really fantastic, thank you for the hard work you put into this!
Wow! Just what I've been trying to figure out for companion planting. Thank you.
This is the most helpful layout video! It’s exactly what I needed
Awesome! Thank you! Do you think I should do more? Any request?
I am new to the square foot principle so this is very helpful...I will try a predesigned layout my first year at least!
OMG this was sooooo helpful. Thank you so much! I was wondering if you could tell me where to plant Blueberries, grapes and aloe pleaseee. You pretty much listed all my other plants. Also when you say to plant marigolds, if i buy a pot of marigolds can that whole pot be replanted in one raised bed square?
This is the best video ever.I just learned so much
Super helpful! I’m going to try one of each!
Great video. Very useful for a beginner like me
Really enjoying your videos. Very well done and informative!
Have you tried growoing zucchini vertically? Have seen a few videos where people grown them up a pole. Tying the stem to the pole and pruning lower leaves. Space saver.
Thank you so much! The first plan is almost exactly what i was planning to plant in my first garden! I am wondering, can they all be watered the same, and be in the same soil, or should i separate some with a different irrigation system and soil? (Which i can easily do.) thanks :)
Please make more of these videos, absolutely love then!! Thank you for your time =)
Am just designing the layout for my new garden now. Thanks for doing the work for me!
Just Subscribed to you. Thank you for helping me plan out my Garden. Made it so Much easier.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience!
You have very clear and unique visuals wich make it very simple to follow.
I will try the first layout this year since this is my first time growing a SFG.
Glad it was helpful! What design you will start with?
@@SmallGardenQuest I will use your 'Get Inspired' lay-out since this is my first year of gardening. With some slight changes since my bed is 4 foot x 12 foot.
@@rbellionrises9851 great. Bdw a 4x12 raised bed brings up memories because I started with this size 😊
Do you know if there is an app where you can choose all the plants you have starts for, give dimensions of your bed, and direction your bed faces, and have the app give you the suggested or recommended layout based on the info?
Hi @cherierangel7459, do you know the name of the app? Thank you !!
Roma tomatoes are determinate
Fabulous content, just what I needed when I started but had trouble finding when i was a beginner. Thanks 😁
Happy to help! Yes is hard to get some garden designs out there that's why I made them :) And maybe if this video gets enough likes and shares I will do more of them :p
Whats the Marigold for?
Plants that like the shade can be planted in the shade of the tomatoes such as lettuce and basil.
Lettuce love cold but still needs sunshine to grow tried growing it in the shade and it didn't go well :(
Thank you for this video. It made things so much easier. I had the square foot gardening book but found it to be overwhelming and too complicated.
Do each block represent a garden bed??
Great video very informative and helpful. 🙏🏼
Good day sir, good job you're doing just came across it, pls help, as a new Gardener, what bed layout and which plant can I substitute for the following please, yam, jute, fluted pumpkin, sweet potatoes, pineapple, pawpaw, better leave (vernonia), apple, ginger, amaranth..then herbss.. thank you, will be waiting for your reply... Ps it a warm climate..
❤️love this video, very informative and cute🥰, love the graphics👍🏾
Yay! Thank you! I am training myself so I will make cartoons for my kids :D
This is so amazing. Thank you so much
Great video on square foot gardening. Thank you.
i like the get inspired, fast and furious, and salad lover... but even the greek salad is good! since i dont eat that many onions, and rarely if ever eat raw tomato... i would likely substitute those
What would you plant instead of eggplant in these layouts? We don’t eat it so I don’t want to grow it. Thank you!
You are amazing! I've been looking for this layout! Thank you so much!
Glad you like it! What was your favorite?
I am in zone 9A when can I start this box?
Super helpful, thanks so much! I've saved it for future reference!
Thank you for doing this video. What a helpful time-saver for planning.
Love this!! Informative and fun to watch! Thanks for sharing
Thank you, it was really helpful!
Would love to see more square foot gardening layout ideas with companion plants. Thanks.
On it. Any special request or just general ideas on what plant with what :) ?
@@SmallGardenQuest I would love to see more like the five above, so easy to follow with the graphic which is very nicely pictured, is that your own work?
@@SmallGardenQuest Will you do some layouts for a square foot, companion plants gardens using cabbage, turnip, corn, arugula, mustard, potatoes, broccoli, Brussels Sprouts, Swiss chard, Radicchio, cantaloupe, watermellon, dill, sunflowers, oregano, lupine, parsley, chives, winter squash, pumpkins? Thank You.
Thank you so much for this video. Very informative and great visuals. Mil gracias!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I just bought your book and waiting on its arrival. I really need to know if your book is based on northern or southern hemisphere? So when you say plant tall plants on the north side is this opposite for southern hemisphere people?
I’m loving your channel! 😍😍😍 I will become a subscriber 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Thank you so much 🤗
So helpful! I'm going to use this for my regular garden as well. 🙂
Me, too!
You mentioned growing Zucchini outside of the raised bed. Does this mean that you plant in a container close to the beds or just one square foot away from other vegetables in the bed itself?
thank you for the plans!
Awesome video! Thank you ☺️
What can you plant in the salsa garden in place of the eggplant and still keep everyone happy?
Do you use some spices or herbs in your salsas?
@@SmallGardenQuest Good idea, which ones do you recommend that will be good companions?
This is amazing. So clear and concise!
What can be substituted in spaces where egg plants zucchini cauliflower are planted?
This is amazing! First time watching. Thank you so much. Big Help!
Glad it was helpful! What was your favorite layout?
Hi. If someone can help me!!.. I'm from Chile.. in the other side of the continent.. so.. don´t know if your North is the same as mine.. Here they said it rain and blow the wind from the North.. is the same or I shoul take the planting direcction the oposite way. Hope I explain myself.. By the way, a very helpfull video, thanks!
I need a layout for corn
Thank you so much…best video ever
Thanks very good save up for book
Thank you, this was fun :)
I have a big house and a big yard with many soil patches, including three big raised beds with stone borders. Space isn't a problem for me, it's just that many of the soil patches outside have bad soil.☹
Use compost or Mel's mix to heal your soil :)
@@SmallGardenQuest Thank you, but some of them have so many small rocks mixed in or plant roots from the previous house owners or the soil is hard. Not all of them don't have much nutrition, but all seem to have one of these problems.
Do raised beds with layering of cut branches, cardboard and such at the bottom and soil and compost on the top layers. There are channels that tell you how to create soil microbes that will change the composition of the soil. You can do it!
Love these! Thank you! It's so helpful to just get the specifics on a Salad Lover's layout! and Salsa! You're awesome! :)
Really good informational video. Thank you.
Thank you glad you like it. Will you use any of the layouts?
@@SmallGardenQuest Yes I will. But at the moment not sure which. I have a tiny garden and this is the first time I have constructed a raised bed which is ready to use. I wouldn't have done it if I hadn't watched your videos. I was looking at companion gardening charts during the week but this video is excellent and makes it so much easier to plan. I really appreciate your videos. Have shared them with my daughter who started growing vegetables last year. Thank you so much.
Great news. Wish you all the best on your gardening journey and if you have any questions or need any help just comment somewhere and I will try to answer. I read all the comments 😊
@@SmallGardenQuest thank you. I will be sure too. I am grateful for you sharing your experience.
I love your videos...5 stars
What a fun video! Clear, concise and entertaining :)
thank you, this was very helpful for me. bless you
I'm so glad!
Thank you 😊😊😊😊
I just planted the salsa garden, the Salad Lover and the Greek Salad gardens, I live in Nova Scotia. Thanks for the great layouts, do you have any more videos with different layouts?
Wonderful! Can you send me some pictures on my Instagram or Facebook would love to see it?
I have 2 videos on my garden layout and a video with layouts for crop rotation. I will make some more during the winter when is less work in the garden :)
@@SmallGardenQuest I will send you some pictures as soon as they start growing up and looking more like veg.
Nicely done!
My husband wants to know the computer program you use for these visual layouts....would you share with us please?
Thank you
Sorry for the late reply but I have been busy with life! I used adobe illustrator to create the drawings and premiere pro to create the animations :) Hope this helps you!
