  • I have sat and worried about this or that in the garden, and you’re right, if they’re in the ground, and they’re growing, what could they possibly need. I have some beautiful tomato plants, they’re big and bushy, because I am not taking all the suckers off, I am experimenting was this so my first year of taking it seriously. Some of my tomato plants are huge, and they look so healthy and I was worried for nothing. Now, we had a hot dry summer, and I probably didn’t water enough at the beginning, and maybe even a little too much through the major heat we had in June, so, I am paying more attention to that. Also, in my containers, I add old grass clumps, turned upside down, some grass clippings, and some of my own dirt mixed with a very small amount of potting mix. My tomato’s are beautiful, but my squash….I will never do squash in pots again, if I don’t have to.
  • @dapperlink
    Made sense of the different and conflicting info I’ve collected. Thank you!
  • @incanada83
    Talking about an eye opener! Your video(s) do just that. Learning and relearning never case. Thank you.
  • @youd7493
    Thank you for giving your knowledge to us. And I thank you so much for explain things simply , clearly and with good pronunciation that any one can understand. 👍
  • @richardfeng1599
    one of the very best gardening channel. I will recommend to anyone who wants to learn and get better in growing plants at home
  • @rrman2party
    Thanks for sharing all the exceedingly educational information.
  • @ank1978
    That’s content and information ... thank you
  • @pifele
    Hi! Your videos are awesome! I came here to learn about the differences in pH with different synthetic fertilizers, mainly those that do not contain sulfur. But in the video you said that this information will be in another video, have you already done it? Can someone share a link? Thanks from Argentina!
  • @loveishope4406
    I found your channel from Maritime Gardener and wow I am so grateful. I just finished my second season container gardening (22 gallon self-wicking) and I have learned so much from you. Lots of these channels giving lots of misinformation. I appreciate their effort but Ive done a lot of stuff that wasn't necessary. Do you know anyone as knowledgeable as yourself for those of us doing container gardening? Would most of the education you give work for my containers since Im not watering from the top? I live in a townhome and grow everything vertically do to space. Thank you for work :) Excellent channel.
  • @ebinom8112
    Thank you so much. Are foliar fertilizerssuitabled for indoor house plants?
  • @firecloud77
    I grow lots of indeterminate tomato plants (52 this year) in 7-gallon pots in my greenhouse (2 plants per pot). The organic fertilizer I mix into the potting soil at the start of the season is sufficient for the entire season, EXCEPT for nitrogen. When the first green tomatoes start forming is when the plants usually start showing signs of nitrogen deficiency (leaves begin to become less green). At that point I start fertilizing with urine once per week for the rest of the season. I put 2 quarts of urine in a 2-gallon watering can, fill it with water, and give about 1 quart per pot.
  • @lori9423
    Can you tell me if we really need to fertilize our lawns? How about if you just mulch leaves into the lawn in the fall? I just love your videos and have been binge watching them. Great information thanks so much!
  • @Aswaguespack
    Great Video as usual 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 the science is explained and the hype is refuted and now the on-line “experts” need to watch this before they post their next pseudo facts.
