Never seen your stuff before, the way you said potatoes, I KNEW you knew what you were doing. Not disappointed. <3

Smart

Great video ... i have the same system set up as this which runs off a 12v bilge pump it's certainly a game changer when shifting water around the plot. I like the smaller pump idea with the hosepipe attached ( nicked that idea 😉 ) 👍👍

How many holes to you drill in the bottom?l

Congratulations on the book, what a lovely dedication. I’ve Just ordered your book, looking forward to it arriving - Also thank you so much for your wonderful videos. 😊 P.S. I’ve fairly recently used your codes to buy my potato containers - the potatoes, with your advice, are growing happily - thank you for that too.

This is quite involved actually, special containers, special potting mix, synthetic fertilizer, timing the season, special garden beds, drip irrigation , there's nothing lazy about it, lots of variables, miss one and there goes your harvest

Once you place in the box where should you store the box of potatoes

Hi Tony, I am hot compost posting, after 18 days Colour is dark,still lumpy and dense, not fine crumble soil like your compost. My question is, do I use it or store it to break down further? What is the recommended storage time.

Brilliant, thank you.🙏

Not sure its the laziest way because you got to make a big frame for support. Also you can get wire worm pest control.

I used to make that nasty smelling liquid , but now I dry out the comfrey then soak it in a pail and in one day I get a beautiful dark liquid that is not anaerobic and smells great and works better than from green leaves .

This year, being a little short on compost, I began saving my kitchen scraps (including the potato peelings). I'd then dig a trench where I know I was going to grow my veg, fill with kitchen scraps and then cover.. I'm now pulling out numerous potato plants where I don't want them to grow. I want to grow anything but potatoes there. My potatoes are grown in the same 30L pots you use Tony.

Deflowering my potatoes as we speak. 😊

Earlier this year I decided, since I needed more compost, to go for a well known, presumably better quality, brand from the brand I'd bought in previous years. I found it was as you describe, very damp, soaking in fact, and full of lumps of wood & twigs. It wasn't compost, it was ingredients to make compost with ! It's all very well buying a compost producing book, but a terraced home garden really doesn't allow sufficient space without sacrificing the growing areas. One needs a list of shame as to brands to avoid. Test results and marks out of 100 in a table maybe.

What wonderful fruit on earth. Very fruitful! Really amazing.

You forgot one more con. You don't have the same height by the sides, as you have in the tunnel, you build yourself.

Hi there, I am very late replying, but how ever a GREAT video of roses advice thanks! I love growing roses, they are so rewarding! I found the more I improved my soil the easier gardening is, as less diseases, easy to dig, less pests, and more healthier plants which "grew" my confidence.🌺🌺🌺

Ive just got some International kidneys and I will try to chit them but I can't see any eyes..........this is a first for me. any ideas.

We discovered by accident that sawdust on the leaves prevents powdery mildew.

have you ever collected the seed and tried to grow a plant from them? Thanks

Dude those spuds are making me hungry.

My nan grows potatoes and she uses fish bone n blood powder as well.

Concise and helpful! 👏 💐

hi..am in love with this!!! Could you send me your email address so that we can have further conversations?

Thankyou😀🌼

Hello Tony! What was the effective area of ​​land where the potatoes were planted?

That is amazing, what was the total cost ?

Great advice

Brilliant advice, Thank you.

Tony. What do you have in the netted enclosure in the background? And what insects/pests are you preventing? Thanks. 👍👍👍

How long will that jar burn for?

Hi Tony, do you feed your potatoes anything after the initial feed you put in the compost at the start? Every year I keep thinking I'm getting blight but I've been told it's probably a magnesium deficiency. Wanted to know your thoughts, thanks

Thanks so much for this very articulate and informative video. Dealing with slugs is essential if anything is going to grow in our garden, and one can get very disheartened when a carefully nurtured seedling gets decimated overnight! I've found beer traps really helpful - the slugs just can't resist, and I must have collected about 20 the first night it was set! According to other pros., its best to put the slug traps a distance away from the main growing bed, so they're not attracted TO that bed as they can smell the beer from a long distance. I've also found they don't like cut hair - works like the sheep-wool pellets - but better chopped up a lot as it's also attractive to the birds; I had to keep the birds off as our local sparrows love the hair for lining their nests!

Don’t dig deep

you should make a table out of 2 by 4 & cow panel wire to dump the buckets on. Potato sifter

there are short stubby tomatoes like cages called pokiest cages or sometimes called pony cages, look them up they would work perfect for this

Had always been told that when it gets too big it gets stringy and tough.

No thank you! I’d rather buy my own nematodes than touch those creepy creatures.

What does he mean by Tomatoe feed? Feed made by tomatoes or a special fertilizer that is meant for tomatoes?

Thanks Tony. Rain harvesting is the best way for water use. A 1000 square foot surface with 1” of rainfall will collect 600 gallons. I am designing a rain roof to collect. Where I am in high desert we get 5-7 inches per year. I need a big one.

Thanks for sharing this technique. Going to use it. I tried couple years ago to grow potatoes in stacked tires with hilling system. Never found one potato. Nothing dug them, soil was still in tact. I am in high desert of So Calif. I had better luck in ground but going to use your.

I haven't tended my rhubarb in 50 years. they have never received nutrition or any supplement. they start growing before the last snow is gone and they grow faster than weeds. the leaves are usually around 1m

Thanks for reminding me me about water gel crystals!

When i was little, i had a secret part of a lake i would play at all day, exploring, and i went around and accidentally touched those...realizing only after, BUT, i think what i did, was when i realized what it was i touched (i had a book on plants i was reading at home) i quickly washed my arms off with mud and the water...i was fine!. -just a little red, but it stopped the reaction and feeling, however i am not sure if that is the practical way that works for everyone, it was just my idea, and it worked for me, same with how my skin reacts to wild carrot except that i am becoming immune and it has needles that react in combination with sunlight harder, but i find rubbing in the opposite direction they got stuck in, with some grass + washing with soap after does the trick, just ALWAYS gotta go the opposite direction, like you're petting an invisible dog.

Just come across this. How do you know how often to fill the outer ring with water , also , how often to fertilize the inner circle

Hi Tony i have planted my potatoes exactly as you have said with the bone meal and in the same tubs, I planted 1st and 2nd earlies and main crop and now it's June and all 10 tubs have flower buds on them, is this OK as the main crop shouldn't be ready till August i think. Kind Regards Terry 👍

Wouldn’t you get more air inside your compost bin if it wasn’t lined, as shown on gardeners world? I seriously want to try to make my own compost!

It's like making a cake. It's like making a frickin' cake. Brilliant Mr. Tony. Thank you so much for this video, I'm sure I'll watch it later as well.

I’m in Pennsylvania I do tire potatoes , 4 tires high , I get a great harvest

Thank you for the harvest processing advice. This will be my first year with some quantity to handle.
