Ever since I moved into my home I've wanted to plant a vegetable garden. This spring I made it happen! I built two raised garden beds (my garage workshop came in handy) and planted my very first garden. I'm excited to see the plants grow--this will be a fun project for me and my daughter Ziya.

Zoey is so cute and sweet “Don’t trip Ms. Raven”. I’ve hear her call you Ms. Raven plenty of times I just think it’s so cute. 💚

its the way every one of these videos starts with "i have no idea what the hell im doing and thats too damn bad because its getting done" for me LOL vegetable gardens and caring for plants in general is such a great way for kids to learn to value the enviornment and the earth. even if you just get a bouquet of flowers and have them help change the water it goes super far.

This year is my fourth year doing a vegetable garden (if the weather ever clears up) it's one of those things were you're constantly learning as you go along. Some useful tips: - I find the tags the plants come with from the store fade very fast or get damaged or blow away. For the past two years I've gotten garden plastic tags and written the names on them (I'm sure you'll find a more creative way to do this) - I'm not sure what slugs and snails are like there but I would recommend some type of slug and snail repellent (especially for your herbs) there are natural repellents like eggshells and coffee grounds. - Even though you put the weed protector down I'm telling you weeds never fail to grow no matter how much you try to prepare. Because your garden is in containers it'll be manageable but just something to keep an eye on. Can't wait to see the garden progress!

Congratulations on your new DIY veggie garden! 🌱🎉 Your journey into gardening is incredibly exciting, and I can't wait to see the fruits (or should I say veggies?) of your labor! What a wonderful opportunity for Ziya to learn and grow alongside you. Wishing you both a fantastic journey filled with fun, learning, and delicious homegrown veggies!

@msshaun71 2 месяца назад

You need to companion plant so that your plants want get ate up by insects. Add some onions by your tomatoes by your cucumber plant some dill nasturtium radish these help bring pollinators and help keep pest away also plant some flowers as well you want the bees and other beneficial insects to come to your beds

@msshaun71 2 месяца назад

Also marigolds especially

@aliciacheekphd 2 месяца назад

“Blood meal and bone meal… whatever that is” 🤣🤣🤣 I love that you weren’t trying to be perfect and that you’re ok not knowing everything. I’m too much of a perfectionist and I often don’t get started with projects like this because I’m too concerned with knowing everything so this was inspirational.

@ElizabethMarie Месяц назад

I absolyutjey love your diy projects! ❤️ I started growing my own garden a few years ago. I find tomatoes and strawberries grow better in their own individual containers vs a small garden bed. My best turn out ever was last year when I learned more about companion planting and planting marigolds and nasturtiums between my plants to help deter pests. Now I’m trying to figure out how to deter beetles to keep off the strawberries. Though I grew some and they were incredibly delicious … it was not many because the beetles tore them up quick 😭 I can’t wait and am so excited to see your garden journey! 😁

I recommend getting 90 degree angle clamps. It's a right angle that holds to boards together to make a perfect corner. Its really helpful too when you dont have help.

I suggest getting two drills so you don't have the switch the bit and it's always good to have two since you have a team and it would make it go by much faster

I started a herb garden in 2020 when the world went to shit and I was back home in the country with my parents. Now I live in the city again and I get no sun light in between all these buildings. But I can’t wait to get a new place that I can have a mini garden again.

You should ask a Gardner who can tell you what type of plants are good to plant and what type of soil you have.

Maybe make a couole more boxes and plant some flowers. Or a trellis over your entrance gate and plant some climbing flowers there.

@mxbitter 2 месяца назад

adding mulch (straw, leaf litter, wood chips) to the tops of your soil will help retain moisture in the coming summer months. your peppers can also be perennials if you bring them inside before the frost hits, and prune them down like rose bushes for new growth the next year.
