We finished our Green house and got it planted. We went with in ground beds rather than raised beads because the cost of raised beds seems to bee so much more. Planting in the ground seemed like the best option for starting out. Let's see how things grow this year and then reevaluate.

You don't need this new machine, it's better to have a few sheep which do the job professionally 🎉❤

@tricialinville4446 19 дней назад

I was going to suggest a tennis ball also, quick easy cheap solution.. But eventually, you might want raised beds when you get older! Less bending over. Good job, I wish I had land for a greenhouse like that

@MartinJohnsonOffGridLiving 18 дней назад

Thanks for the tips!

@laruedouglas7972 18 дней назад

I was thinking the same with the tennis balls.

@Diney5 18 дней назад

If you use tennis balls you could use them to help you to stand when you get older

@user-mv3sr8zq2t 19 дней назад

Rebar caps would work great for the the pipes.

@karlkohm3369 18 дней назад

or old tennis balls

@clayretired741 18 дней назад

Or slip-on rubber chair tips

@davecaron1213 18 дней назад

Keep people and animals from becoming shishkebabs

@idahodad1 12 дней назад

That is a great looking green house.

@richardgreen5602 18 дней назад

Your concern is very valid....I think you should get some of the protective caps used to keep a concrete pour safe on the rebar tops!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@mskippi 18 дней назад

I love raised beds because I am older and don’t want to bend so much. I do a map for planting as well. That makes it so easy to identify later

@suearblaster7355 18 дней назад

Yes our grass in PA. Is growing very fast

@Detour4it 19 дней назад

Run irrigation to each row end and utilize drip "tape" along the rows; dump the hose dragging 😉

@LilYeshua 18 дней назад

You could put some rebar safety caps on those stakes. We've always planted tomatoes by using the corner of a hoe to make a divot,drop a handful of fertilizer into the hole,place the plant into the hole and using a hand to scoop the dirt we dug out to fill the hole around the plant while holding the plant, lightly pat down the soil around the plant,then pour some water around the plant then move on to the next. Do some weeding later then drive tomatoe stakes in later and break off the suckers.

@gudfarfar 18 дней назад

Shelves can also be a solution to plant more crops. Get some sturdy ones in Aluminium and place large pots on them.

@josephyourk3584 18 дней назад

Marty...tennis balls on the top of the steaks would prevent impalement. Julie...extra large zip tie with permanent marker would do the trick for plant ID. Get them in colors so it will be color coded.

@sarahtroutt1237 18 дней назад

Yes we have grass!!! We’re already mowing in north Mississippi!

@rdlowman6 11 дней назад

Put rebar caps on the poles to protection.

@billmandaue2168 19 дней назад

At Home Depot or Lowes you can buy stake toppers that will make your stakes safe and more visible. They are made to cover rebar used in construction, but I'm sure they make a size that will fit your conduit stakes.

@user-mv3sr8zq2t 19 дней назад

OUTSTANDING

@timf6916 18 дней назад

@HiFoodies24 18 дней назад

@carolwarren1631 18 дней назад

Put a ball or something on the stakes so they are more visible

@sharonmilton4854 18 дней назад

You can put stake caps on the stakes to keep people from getting impaled if the fall on them

@larryburroughs7177 18 дней назад

Get some rebar caps should have them at your local building supply store

@suzannegerstner2841 18 дней назад

Put pool noodles on the stakes after the rebarb caps. They are cheap and you can cut them down and they already have holes in them. They actually make hose reels for garden beds that will catch a hose before it goes into the bed.

@stan118 18 дней назад

Consider making a mist system from the peak set on a timer.

@2006engine267 18 дней назад

Came to say the same thing about safety. They make caps, I would put on.

@percyangilley3291 18 дней назад

Plant your tomatoes deeper up to the first branch, and the plant will grow new roots from the first branch and make the plant even stronger.

@akagami777 18 дней назад

Semangat Pak Martin..

@harlandfazardo799 18 дней назад

When you plant tomatoes remove the lower leaves and plant deep up to the new leaves. The fuzz on the stem will all turn to roots and give the plant a good start.

@srihartantochannel4879 15 дней назад

Apa kabar Pak Martin? Semoga sehat selalu dan dalam lindungan Tuhan. Semoga channelnya yang baru ini sukses. Salam dari Surabaya Indonesia.

@rayknightstep9083 18 дней назад

Hello from Rancho de Vegas, I would paint or stripe your little posts. Tie some barricade tape around them and mount a blunt cap preferably out of wood, rubber or plastic. Bright colored tennis balls would work well too. Rubber construction cones over them may work as well. You can never be too careful with something that can cut or impale you. Accidents happen and you are a long way from emergency care. Do any or all of these steps and keep smililing😄

@Amigatech 18 дней назад

Where I work, they cut a hole in a tennis ball. to cover "dangerous" spikes like you have. You could also drill a hole in a small piece of 4x4 lumber to cap them for safety. I think Safety Sally would approve. :)

@vansage2691 17 дней назад

now I want to see how much vertical gardening you tackle. the cucs and tomatos benefit from vertical gardening practices!

@dncndan1 18 дней назад

Buy some od the orange rebar protector caps for you metal stakes.

@edhibbard2348 18 дней назад

Try make a rubber cap for rear, should work fine

@Detour4it 19 дней назад

Enjoy your show.

@brianperry4754 18 дней назад

I do enjoy seeing how "warm" it is in the greenhouse with Julie wearing her insulated coveralls...We need to understand what "warm" is to Marty...

@jimtullier5709 18 дней назад

Good morning and....Great Job! After trying the usual Marks-A-Lot type markers and finding out they fade on plastic labels, I found a product on ebay called Garden Marker that is awesome. They have fine points so you can write on small labels and, after 8 months, there is no fading or smearing at all.

@mowguy1 17 дней назад

You youngsters will appreciate raised beds when you get older.

@kathleenturley1561 18 дней назад

I would plant those tomatos more in the middle of the row. They will grow our into you isle. Good Job

@fransvankralingen725 18 дней назад

May I suggest putting rebar mushroom caps on top of the stakes?

@pha0332 18 дней назад

youcan putt red coffe cups on them very cheep and effectiv XX

@hallenw 18 дней назад

The stake danger crossed my mind when she was starting to pound them in. Perhaps pickup the orange cones used for rebar safety.

@ranseposey999 18 дней назад

I agree about the stakes being dangerous. Just get some of those Orange REBAR caps for safety.

@johnmaher4888 18 дней назад

TENNIS BALLS! Get some yellow ones, cut hole in one side with a bit, and put them over the top of the metal stakes.

@northernliving2387 18 дней назад

Tamarack trees do lose there needles in the fall and come back in the spring.

@kkreitma1 18 дней назад

+1 for the drip irrigation. I switched last year and really liked the results.

@charleskerbel2566 19 дней назад

They do make covers that would attach to the tops of the rebar.

@marithaswanepoel5257 18 дней назад

I love your greenhouse. Enjoy your garden.

@randypyatt5649 18 дней назад

@serenagomez3864 18 дней назад

Like your system! He gives the increase!

@Mouse2677 19 дней назад

I use electrical conduit for stakes all the time and if there is concern for falling on them, put a used tennis ball on top of each.

@flowerstone 18 дней назад

We cut strips out of yogurt, cottage cheese, and soup container lids for plant markers. We use the container to start in. Use them for a few seasons and then recycle them. 😊

@davidjohnston6922 18 дней назад

Place tennis balls on top of the metal poles!

@ericcantrell5205 18 дней назад

stakes are good! Use orange construction rebar protectors. Also buy a 4lb hammer. :)

@patbrewer4205 18 дней назад

My last large garden was made up of double wide beds so I could plant on either side and allowing a wide enough aisle for my little wagon to go down instead of narrow walking width rows it worked very well

@pippaseaspirit4415 18 дней назад

Tying a piece of ribbon or tape to the top of the posts makes them easier to see and avoid injured eyes! Simple, quick, and cheap. Mind you, you could still fall on one; tennis ball tops might save you from impaling yourself but you could still get a nasty internal injury.

@craigfallon8340 18 дней назад

PUT BALL CAPS ON THE PIPES LIKE WHAT IS USED ON REBAR WHEN BUILDING FOUNDATIONS

@Centinelastrings 18 дней назад

Let see, electricity, Water, = automatic irrigation on a timer. Beats watering with a hose. No dangerous spikes that can injure you if you slip and fall.

@larrykelly2838 18 дней назад

Now that's a garden.

@megslittlehouseinthecountry 18 дней назад

Good work! Having a good greenhouse is a blessing. But as an older gal with joint issues, having my raised beds is even more of a blessing. I'm just not as flexible as I used to be! 💖💖💖

@randypyatt5649 18 дней назад

In Missouri I mowed my lawn 4 times already.

@davelewis4064 18 дней назад

I fell on a stake once, it was the scaryist moment in my life, my 2 lower ribs kept it from going through my body.

@terryhenderson424 18 дней назад

For small space gardening, use scatter sowing methods, an intense gardening technique. Check out BOTH editions of the Square Foot Gardening books too. In part, they rely on center to center of plants for thier spacing. Row gardening and gardening techniques became very popular for sluce watering in the valleys and also for the use of harvesting machines. Further, the hilled rows give a kiss of raised bed garden advantage. Even in the green house, consider riased planting areas by 12 to 18 inches. Paul J Allan, (also known as PJ Allan) started a farm amd wedding venue type place in the early 2000's and played with flat garden as well as raised farden spaces. This journey was a part of his PBS show; his raised gardens were big enough to run a rototiller down and then a small tractor; he also did some okant testing for others. Also on PBSbut in the 1990's was the Victory Garden show with the coiple from Vermont who swore by growing in elevated mounds for many tnings.

@terryhenderson424 18 дней назад

If youve got spare space between plants, consider planting some dakion radishes, also known as tillage radishes. They ate edible, can grow to 6" in diameter each, and work to make soil less compact with thier root structure. Watch for wire worm pressure though. Dakion radishes can be used to supplement fowl and animal feed too.

@MrEagle1010 19 дней назад

they do make a mushroom type cap for those pipes

@clarencewiles963 18 дней назад

Looking forward to seeing you guys soon. Good job 😊

@Jimbo65203 18 дней назад

Good work. As far as the metal posts go, they are a hazard for falling and impalement. If you are using them for aligning your grow beds I'd pull them up; they've served their purpose. In the fall when you till your beds you won't need them. If you are naming your beds, just mark them with sticks.

@user-rs6zi5dx4n 18 дней назад

you'll more than likely get 100 or more on this one tennis balls bright colors or rebar cones . four wheel wagon or cart for harvesting or planting , raised beds as you get older or if you pull your back doing all those things you guys do on a daily bases. i found many years ago putting well water on the plants could slow down the growing because it's to cold use your old water tank for storing water to let it warm up also check the type of chemcail make up of the water i know you had it test before just suggestions. sorry about the misspelling and all the other stuff

Something you might want to check out is a thing called a Darwin Handel. They are a back saver.

@robertejohnsonii8508 18 дней назад

It's better when you're planning tomatoes, to plant the root and 3 inches of the stem because all of the stem will put on roots. It will make a stronger plant.

@tylerbarrett6652 18 дней назад

I've been looking for something like this Mammotion Mower ever since they invented the Roombah (sp?) This might be just the thing... I'll have to check it out.

@markuslamm8497 17 дней назад

If you make compost from your garden waste, you can create your own garden soil and will need to buy less. Let your next Tomatoes and Pepper's grow bigger and plant it deeper you will get more roots on the plantet Tomatoes. More space between the plants would be better.

@darcypapenfuss667 19 дней назад

@MartinJohnsonOffGridLiving 18 дней назад

That is how we plant to grow it!

@waderue 18 дней назад

Now, Martin, it looks like you need to buy a small rototiller and I think you need to set the water system to the rows and you said you like the peppers cool and have you ever made picked hot beans the yellow ones are best to do that plus I make hot pickles my and what I hot mix that all kinds of different veggies in like beans and cauliflower and olives and you can use what veggies you like but that is why i grow pepper
