Just as a friendly reminder, I wanted to mention that liking, commenting, and sharing videos really do play a major role in helping content creators like myself reach a wider audience. Your engagement on RU-vid can have a positive impact and contribute to the growth of the channel. But I totally get that everyone has their own preferences and comfort levels when it comes to social platform engagement. Let's grow together! 🌿

Rhizoma peanut and vetiver grass helped with my nematode issues. Don't plant pinto peanut because nematodes love that one.

Good to know. I've learned some great advice from viewer's comments! And I've got a series I've done on cover crops to manage them. It's in this Nematode playlist. ru-vid.com/group/PL6ulEHf2FUdHeA2CXF4l-Z0uPo90RCdX1 Happy gardening! 🌿

So adding organic material Materials with chitin Solarize them and french Marigold Thanks man this is the most detailed and straight to the point video I've seen to fight against KRN

@StacksUrbanHarvest Год назад

I'm glad you found this helpful! I solarized for 9 years each summer, and in some of my others videos, I explain why I don't recommend it anymore. Basically, my soil lost it's structure and water holding capacity. I switched to cover crops that kill RKNs. Here is the Nematode playlist, which includes the cover crop series and a deep dive on the subject when I spoke to a garden club about this. ru-vid.com/group/PL6ulEHf2FUdHeA2CXF4l-Z0uPo90RCdX1

Solarize them, but for how long? I make mulch tea, but my strawberries doesn't like it, they recover but no strawberries yet this year. And is it true that some nematodes eat root knot nematodes? I'm trying to find a before and after visual of a treated bed, Do you have anything like that?

@StacksUrbanHarvest 2 месяца назад

@@Crozbyguy-rg1iu Yes, there are predatory nematodes that eat other nematodes. They are like the great white shark of the soil world, but they are rare. I do not recommend solarization at all anymore. I used to do it all summer, every summer for nine years, and it did more harm than good. I talk about that in my latest video. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-pa1X7e1I-FU.html

@seedtotable7478 2 месяца назад

Soil solitization kills all the wonderful microbiology you worked so hard to keep.

@StacksUrbanHarvest 2 месяца назад

And that's why I've been strongly speaking out against it. But for 9 years I did as IFAS recommended, and was dedicated to solarizing all summer and every summer. It did more harm than good, as I explained in my most recent videos.

@bethb8276 Год назад

They are the bane of my gardens too. I have heard that French marigolds help repel them, but I doubt that would control them enough. It also seems to be important to plant them before planting veggies, not just as a companion plant. I'm interested in learning more about the cover crops!

@StacksUrbanHarvest Год назад

Hi Beth! Yes, French marigolds kill them. I go into that in my recent garden club talk. And that talk, as well as the Cover Crop series are in the Nematode playlist. (See link.) I highly recommend trying these cover crops, but especially the Sunn Hemp! :) ru-vid.com/group/PL6ulEHf2FUdHeA2CXF4l-Z0uPo90RCdX1

@linab8847 Год назад

My question is , did using those cover crops eliminate your nematode problem? What worked?

@anthonyruth5606 8 месяцев назад

I use marigolds for nemotodes ive been planting marigolds next to my crops havent seen them since that

@bethb8276 8 месяцев назад

@anthonyruth5606 I even had root-knot nematodes in a large planter pot that ruined a tomato plant. I've been using them in my gardens, but my true test is that large pot. Growing them in there too, if it gets rid of them there, I will have the proof I need.

@84tilburg 2 года назад

David, this is great info, thank you. Someone told me that solarizing the soil kills beneficial stuff along with the nematodes, is that true? I was also told to rotate crops in my beds for nematodes, which crops are nematode resistant? I have many grow bags where I planted tomatoes and every single one of them got nematodes.

@StacksUrbanHarvest 2 года назад

Yes, solarizing kills most of the microbes in the bed both good and bad, as my solarizing video explains. And yes, crop rotation is generally a good practice for annuals and short-lived perennials. If your grow bags are on the ground the nematodes are coming up from the ground. I laid a thick layer of mulch under the big grow bags you saw in this video that had chicken wire on top.

@84tilburg 2 года назад

Is it a good idea to place the grow bags on top of a plastic sheet?

@StacksUrbanHarvest 2 года назад

@@84tilburg No, it needs drainage. Otherwise you'll have bad anaerobic microbes growing. I'd rather use plywood.

I have a 50gal. Electric Marathon Rheem 50245 water heater. I replaced the heating elements 3yrs ago, and have flushed it twice since then, the water temp is hot 🔥 without issues however now getting a fowl rotton egg smell and cannot locate an anode rod location. Does anyone know if there is one and how to access it on a (MR50245)?

@otiliaczego8182 Год назад

I use nematodes on the egarden to keep out slugs and snails? Are they then bad for the soil and plants? Will they cause theses root nematodes?

@StacksUrbanHarvest Год назад

There are many types of nematodes, some that are predators of these root feeding ones we call Root Knot Nematodes. I usually often refer to them as RKNs. Then there are ones that kill other things like grubs. I'm not sure about the slugs and snails, but I wouldn't be surprised.

@@StacksUrbanHarvest you should be talking to the sfw people about predatory nemas. Find out if there are any in the bio-complete, or how to encourage them into the garden

@StacksUrbanHarvest 10 месяцев назад

@@666bruv I do talk about this in the deep dive garden club talk. I've bought those nematodes and have had more success with using compost teas and using a holistic approach. The biocomplete includes the predatory nematodes. Dr. Ingham's focus is always on creating and maintaining that ecosystem of the SFW to create a healthy soil. There's not one magic microbe.

@prettyboy54321 2 года назад

It is pronounced neh-ma-tode. Not nee-ma-tode. And there have been many studies done on the benefit of Thyme oil for eradicating root knot nematodes. You should look into that.

@StacksUrbanHarvest 2 года назад

I've heard it pronounced both ways, and since I always hear Soil Biologist Dr. Elaine Ingham pronounce it the other way, I've been thinking about switching, but I then I like consistency in the videos. I would think that could get very expensive using Thyme oil. And I wonder what that does to the other soil biology.

@prettyboy54321 2 года назад

@@StacksUrbanHarvest There are many products available that use thyme oil to but most are for commercial growers. And yes, you do need to be careful about the amount of thyme oil to not damage beneficial biology. I am just trying to figure out the ratio to use in my own raised beds.

@StacksUrbanHarvest Год назад
