Great video! I love Chloe’s interest and energy with the nursery business! I wish one of my girls shared this interest. Maybe it is just skipping a generation! If not, their eyes will glaze over like everyone else’s does when I talk plants! lol We are on vacation and my daughter pointed out a nursery here on the gulf. I said awesome, maybe we can go and check it out! Her reply was “uhhh, no.. maybe you can go!”. Craig, you are so lucky!! Loved the video and God bless your family! ❤

Great video with lots of good information. Chloe is so calm in front of the camera sharing her thoughts about the nursery. I propagated some hosta's for my own use and they have grown nicely in one year. Believe me they do great when planted in pots.

Short, sweet, and to the point! Thank you for another great video! I really enjoy the way your family work together. I can truly say your advice has worked for me! Thanks to you all, I gained the confidence and courage to just get started. I am going into my 3rd year as a certified Hobby Nursery. I mainly sell online. Each year I have been able to scale up. Not earning much, but I am learning and I see the potential. Thanks again to you and your family!

You mentioned finding someone to learn from. For me, YOU have been that person! Thank you so much for all the wisdom you have so generously poured out! I know that I would not be where I am today were it not for your wisdom and encouragement! I had my second repeat customer from last year (my first year) drop by this week. She was absolutely astounded! Last year, all my little native wildflowers fit on two card tables on my driveway. This year, she had to walk around to the side of my house to my two (Amazon cheapo but getting the job done) 10x26 greenhouses, one full of native plants, one full of native trees. She was literally clapping and cheering to see the growth in just one year. I probably have over 1000 native plants ready to go home with folks. But… in spite of frequent FB Mktplc ads, the plants just are not selling as quickly as I would like them to (need them to!). Now I need to start planning for a greenhouse clean house blowout sale to try to sell them all. Thank you again for your copious wisdom and consistent encouragement. We love your family right back!

Hey Guys, I like to think of you all as my "friends". Following along with you since you backyard in TN. 🤗🌱🌱 I've modeled my Nursery, opened this February 2024, after your advice and videos. Yes, I have had to make adjustments to my clients and I continue to learn who they are, and what they are planting. Living in a quickly growing rural, southern OK community, some plant gardens and others their flower beds. I agree, the annuals I bought in were a convenience or draw, but the profit has been on what I have grown myself preparing from summer 2023. We enjoyed a day of glorious rain yesterday. I didn't let the day go by without doing something, so I prepared the trays for Limelight propagations I am cutting this morning; all thanks to you. 🌱🌱🌱🤗 God bless and may you continue to grow abundantly 🙏🤗🌱🌱🌱🌱🙏 ps: I chuckled thinking about you guys, I couldn't keep roses in stock😅🤣🤣🌹🌹 And the green giants I bought in from you, did EXACTLY what you predicted. Someone bought all 20. 🌲🌲🌲I'll be buying more than 20 this year! Thanks again 😊👍

Such a great video! Thank you. You have been my #1 go to for education on starting my nursery. My husband and are fully committed a this point in building this out. So far we have trees, and are specializing in willows. I started them all from cuttings, less than a $1 each. We have 7 variates and in total somewhere around 220 trees in various stages; some are just rooted cuttings in water while others are already 4ft trees. All I have is a backyard and I followed your video showing how much you can do in 10x10 ft space. Most are in 1g trade pots. We plan to open next spring which gives us plenty of time to grow these out and get paperwork in order. Anyway - thank you again. I love your channel. I just started following you on IG as well. Best to you all!

great video! I'm currently in a holding pattern with my nursery. I made a profit this year, but not enough profit to expand. I havent done final count on what I sold vs what I grew, bc that will not be a pretty number, but it was so much better than last year. So, I started a new business that I can do in the off season to pay for my first business. lol

So I’ve watched almost all your videos and I’ve seen videos on your soil mixture in the past. You said it was just regular ground mulch and then pine bark mulch but it there compost or anything else that you put it in? I’m trying to dine tune my soil mixture for my nursery and I would like to know
@savvydirtfarmer
@savvydirtfarmer 28 дней назад
There's a hundred ways to do it. Mine is one example. Important to note, when you say "regular ground mulch," that it is not wood. It is bark. BIG, BIG difference. YOu can add compost. I don't. My nutrients come from fertilizer. Two keys: moisture retention (not too much), and drainage (not too much). You need both, and MANY recipes will work well.

Sometimes that's a problem. I've only had to deal with it with perennials. They just grow so fast... they really do need a few inches space between pots. Sometimes it just doesn't happen.

How far away do you live from town and what is the population there? I just bought a house on almost 3 acres, but it’s out there. But I am within 20 miles of two towns with a combined population of around 50k. And 30 miles from a combined population of probably a couple hundred thousand (Myrtle Beach area).
@savvydirtfarmer
@savvydirtfarmer 8 дней назад
I live about 10 miles outside of a town of 70,000 or so. It's really not that important. People drive to small nurseries from a LONG way to get nice plants... they do it all the time.

As God leads me to embark with another brother to start a business - to gain long term more money into the pockets of poor fellow Christians. Therefore to me your phrase "adding value" now is sticking in my mind... It's also a christian way of business/marketing = not only "gaining money" but "giving sth. worthwile to others" at the same time. ...And yeah that also helps to earn a bit more. And nowadays this is sth. with which you can be better for people to see - cause other big companies may be very cheap so you kind of have to be as cheap too... ..But if you have better quality for that price or even a slightly higher price - it can make "walmart customers" come to your store instead. Nowadays for example you can't even find for example good earth/soil/potting mix in stores - they are mostly terrible in quality but greeaaat in price...Yeah 🙄 only..in price. BUT I talked to some people and they notice bad quality - SO these stores advertise for us in that way!🤷🏻‍♂️👍🏼
