Another great video. I love gardening, it is so healthy and therapeutic in so many ways. Great team building with the coworkers! It makes for a Win-Win for all.
Hey Dalton, positive recycle for the tool boxes and great you found a common project/like/interest with your coworkers, helps build a positive work environment.
Next time you use containers like the tool boxes, after the holes in the bottom put in dried branches and sticks of wood and then the compost, the wood in the bottom holds the moisture and it won't dry out so fast. Don't forget to mulch the top as well
Need pine needles. A 3 to 4 inch layer (leave fluffy don't compact) of pine needles will protect the soil from drying out plus they decompose at a much much slower rate then regular mulch. Pine needles have a ph level of around 3.5 which plants love 😊
@@marchingmoto also, sorry I failed to mention this previously. You have to watch those soil temps. as well. At 85 degrees root growth stops and anything above 96 degrees (I think) roots start to die.
Peppers are heavy feeders, the yellow leaves can be from a lack of nutrients. You can get some of those plants food sticks and put a couple around each plant or get some miracle grow to add to the water.
In UK we call those hot Asian chilli’s Birds Eye Chillies. Might be worth looking that up. Not heard of Carolina chillies. The Mexican ones oh yes. If We want them here in France we have to grow them or buy them in jars. Our region they do not like hot food. For us Curry is like roast beef and Yorkshire pudding. Typical Brit food 🤣🤣👏👏👏🤞🤞🤞🥳🥳🥳🥳
Your garden looks very nice, so just keep doing what your doing, if bugs ever start trying to take over, use 7 dust and that will kill them.. but right now, everything's looking good...love the planters, great idea... thanks for the extra 😊
Great idea with old tool boxes. I am just guessing but the front black tool box seems to be giving you the most problem. You know black is used in almost any solar panel or thermal panel because it absorbs sunlight and produces heat (or electricity). Your shop looks like it is light colored. Imagine if it was dark colored. You would be working in an oven. Anyway, next year, paint black tool box white but this year just find some old plywood and cheap white paint and put in front of black tool box. Lean it at an angle to get some air between the two. But yes keep up the excellent watering that you have been doing!
Get yourself a nice big garden going in your field at the house. The second house I redid I put in a garden. Had good luck with squash, tomatoes, and especially strawberries. Nice part about the berries was they were self proliferating. Runners sprout of the original plants so that my original 6 plants spread to about 20 sq ft in just a couple years. Really sweet too. I also did cantalope, but no peppers.
Carolina Reaper is HOT AF. The same guy who created the carolina reaper also created Pepper X. I'll guarantee you won't use the entire pepper at one time. a small piece at a time. I use the reaper in chilli just the end of it spices up my chilli.
any tips on why my pepers only have 6 leafs max and then stalling? i let them sprout inside and then put them out, daily water, drainag, but they wont grow. middle european 20-30°C.
