JOSH, I just gotta say, this is the MOST informational, clear to understand video of beginning a garden I have ever seen! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!! I wrote down each step in my notebook. I am 65 and have only really gardened for a few years in 6b. I learn from your videos and from mistakes I make. I love lettuce and will look up some of that you planted. Thanks so much, again, you are a goldmine of information for me!!!!!!

This is really an excellent way to garden. You can get chicken manure at Home Depot I think if you can't find a farm. Peat also helps in CA in sandy soil. Just a small bag goes a long way mixed with the dirt.

Just recently found your videos; so very inspiring. This INSTANT garden video is just what I needed. I became a widow 5 years ago; my husband was an intense organic gardener. Over the years he built several deep beds in our yard and MADE the soil himself. Suffice to say that since he's been gone those beds, other gardening types and projects have been sorely neglected. I have retained some of what I learned from him but don't have the time and deep passion for it that he did. Really feeling guilty about my lack of effort; because I know how important self sustainability is. Planning to use your methods and tips to help me carry on my husbands legacy; even if in a smaller way. GOD works in mysterious ways!!

@cygna1237 3 года назад

I had a stopped drain and threw my dishwater out, and it had tomato seeds in it that I didn't know. I also tossed a few scraps out. Now I have 10 wild tomato plants. Plus another came up, but it will have to be taken elsewhere as it came up in my walking path. I suspect birds on that one. haha I didn't get any tomatoes off of them yet. There has been a lot of ash in the valley sky from fires. The sky is clearing now, and they are blooming again. My okra gave me 10 lbs off two plants put in an old galvanized tub. The birds planted me a mulberry tree years ago.

@evelyndill5688 4 года назад

I have very sandy soil and there were a lot of chunks of concrete and even broken glass in some places, I'm not sure where the builders sources the top soil. I used a spade to dig everything out in a grid, separating out the big rocks for later landscaping and weeds for the compost pile. Soil in urban areas can be kind of low quality or even contaminated so be careful. Growing food in sandy soil has been an amazing learning experience. There's a lot of drainage but using thick mulch to retain moisture on top and bring in microorganisms has helped a lot.

@tanarehbein7768 4 года назад

I use organic coffee when I can, but sometimes the conventional or flavored grounds make their way into the system. So far no apparent harm and usually the free ranging chickens eat them up. Chickens LOVE their coffee! I never would have thought to let the poultry have at the grounds except several veterinarian friends feed them to their turkeys or hens.

@donnaf2666 2 года назад

Suggestions....Can't you dump the wheelbarrow or move it closer? Never work wet soil, it causes clumps that stay for a year or two. The food looked like leftovers, which usually contains salt. Also the uncomposted grass, can and often does cause nematodes to attack the roots of the plants or the green grass causes nitrogen burn. Compost it first. Former farmer here, growing tobacco, strawberries, blackberries, mums and a truck garden. A fast garden, mow close, rototill, let sit a day, rake out the sod, add fertilizer and till in, it helps the grass decompose. Wait a week and till again. If grass is all gone, plant. If not, wait another week. Then till and plant. Throw out any clumps of weeds or grass. Dig a plant hole, add water to fill hole, set the plant in. Let the roots soak a minute. Pull in dry dirt around it. Never smash, till or step on wet soil. It creates a clod.

@hotartesian4163 2 года назад

Nice vid. Love the little fuzzy helper! This is my favorite way to garden, too. Except I am blessed with quack grass, which is very high in nitrogen and other nutrients. I don't cut it down, but place cardboard or multiple layers of paper over the top of deeply watered grass, and water that in, as there will always be a strong wind blowing as soon as I bring out the paper! I top the carbon barrier with old hay to a foot thick, and saturate that as well. The hay is a mix of quack before going to seed, of course, and alfalfa and fescues, etc. Next I go out to the hen house outdoor run and dig the top 3 or 4 inches off to one side, and remove the soil underneath that area down to a depth of 1 foot. This soil is a rich compost and is placed onto the hay mulch of the new bed to a depth of between 8 inches to a little over a foot, depending on what I will seed into it. Greens are great for that first season of growth, but I find that squashes and even corn can develop deep roots right through the cardboard or paper because of the earthworm activity going on below. In my situation things decompose very quickly from the bottom up. Any grasses or weeds that come through, or that blew onto the bed and then took root is so easy to pull and leave on the bed to dry up and then go back into the soil. I am always looking for more grass clippings or old hay to throw down on top of the bed. This method gives my family and friends quick and easy access to a great supply of fat worms for fishing, too!

I give all of my food scraps to my chickens in their run along with all yard waste and then every once in a while screen out some of the material and spread that in my garden like in the back to eden film. My garden veggies love it!!

Have learnt so much from this video as a beginner . The bed measurements, the layers, location, water, etc. Thanks a lot.

Thank you 😊 You make it so simple to understand. I have put off gardening for years because of some people's complicated procedures. Have a nice day.

I have seen some people just scatter the seeds and harvest. They don't seem to have weed issues.

Good practical gardening, thank you, and duckie apparently is checking it all out and picking up pointers too.

Fantastic. Remember there are symbiotic plants to plant together. Radishes/ carrots... corn/ beans... look them up for best garden use.

I just got this and was delighted thank you for showing this. I will be doing this method this year and with this video just now showing up it gives me time to save up scraps and cardboard. Thank you so much for this information Josh. You and Carolyn are the best.

Such fantastic information! Thank you so much. But can we take a moment and talk about the little gosling? So, so sweet! "I hep you dad, I hep you!" So precious...takes me back to when we raised ducks. We didn't use them for food, just occasional eggs, mostly pets. I miss those little buggers.😇💕

Love your videos. Five gallon buckets are an essential tool in our garden

If you raise more cabbage than you can use, you can pull them up by the roots. Then you dig a hole and put the cabbage head in the hole. Cover the cabbage leaving the roots sticking up. Then you can go out anytime the weather is above freezing and pull the cabbage out of the ground and shake the dirt off and pull the outer leaves off. It's like going out in the summer and getting fresh cabbage.

I'm not sure where you are located, beautiful country!! Great video!! and God bless.

@sonialeecoleman-callinder3742 4 года назад

This is my first time watching you, i am enjoying your video. I don’t have a lot of space but I do use containers and it’s working out nice. I think I get more from the containers than the space I have. You should give that baby Goose a name he/she is very cute.

Not a good idea to name something you will be eating in the future. Can't say that is what they plan but something to keep in mind.

Gardening in west Texas is it's own animal. Successfully growing tomatoes is practically a miracle. Looking at your background everything including the weeds and trees are a glorious green.

@louisecook6483 2 года назад

Just found your channel, I'm in the UK and our weather is very different but I found this a wonderful way to start new beds easily to feed the family. Thank you ❤️

@pamsco49 2 года назад

So informative! I live in Texas and the heat can have a huge impact on my gardening success. I am currently using 5 gal buckets for my container garden as the ground is a rock quarry. I am so pleased to see your technique! I am excited to try it. I see you posted this 1 yr ago. Is there a video showing how your lettuce bed turned out? Thank you both for the wonderful videos!

@maecarpenter8052 2 года назад

Your video is the best I have seen as far as giving directions. You actually do a show and tail at the same time. And you did it so quickly. You made things plain and understandable For an elderly person like me who has never done Gardenning before. You are a heaven set - God bless you and thank you for your incredible video. I have seen many at least 50 within 2 to 3 weeks and I’m just understanding now what exactly I need to do.

@joannahikes1337 3 года назад

as I was watching I was wondering you seemed concerned about organic coffee grounds then you add cardboard that can contain all kinds of chemicals… glue also cardboard is treated with retardant chemicals: termite retardant, moisture retardant, flame retardant, roach retardant, food spoilage retardant, water retardant, heat retardant, fire retardant and ant and other insect retardant…?
