I've been taking scrap metal to the scrap yard for years, one thing I've been doing to make my buckets last in the sun is spray painting them with metallic paint, I can paint about 4 buckets with one can, it gives them a much longer life span The mylar bags reminded me of my silver and gold buckets, I'm sure it would be a good way to jazz up the garden buckets and block out the light at the same time.

@baneverything5580 Год назад

I got 5 food grade 5 gal buckets, one 6 inch bucket grow basket lid, and expanded clay pebbles. I can sit the bucket in the sun but under the edge of my camper roof. But here in Louisiana we have squash vine borers that will chew through six feet of lead to kill a squash plant so I`m thinking of trying Sugar Baby melons, cantaloupe, or cucumbers. I have lights to boost growth but I think the white buckets will have to be wrapped with cardboard and duct tape to keep light out. I`ve had some much stress from my control freak relatives nearby that most of my energy is wasted trying to recover. "HE BOUGHT SOLAR PANELS! WE OPENED HIS PACKAGE AND IT WAS A GIANT BAG OF RICE! HE`S CRAZY!"

Wow, I just found out about Walmart bakery selling buckets a couple of weeks ago. My small food garden is all the better for it. Thanks for all the information, you're a great person, God bless you 🙏🏿 ❤

Thanks to this awesome community. They told me about it. ❤

Yay!!! Happy Friday!!! I've seen these at Target. Pretty nice size. I'm having trouble getting seeds to start. don't know if it's the weather or the tides of the moon. But I'm a bit behind. Thank goodness we have a long growing season so I can start some more. Query, how close together do you allow your seeds when growing microgreens? I put a tablespoon of bok choi seeds on a starting mat ( container with paper towel) and I instead of most of them starting like usual, it seems that they rotted in place except on the edges. I wondered if I had too many seeds, but i see peopl with a whole layer of seeds and they come up like thick carpeting. I am going to go back and watch some of your seed starting videos to see if I did something wrong. It's been so easy with these seeds in the past so I'm a bit worried that they didn't germinate like normal. Thanks for all of these experiements. I know a few people who are afraid to get started because they don't have everything just right ( I am often guilty of that) and I wish more people would watch your vids to see how they can start with pretty much anything. The Living plant part of it is the hardest , i just found a plastice contianer in the office break room that held walnuts. Heck , That could be a grow box! LOL ( I took it home) Cheers!

@cruikshank Год назад

I had lettuce that wouldn’t germinate. I finally bought another bag from different mfg and they sprouted in 3 days inside under grow lights in Rockwool cubes.

@leslieyoung2814 Год назад

Mike, I love your content. Keep it up! I’ve been growing squash for 3 years now in Kratky buckets. They grow so well. However, once they are to fruiting stage, the plants are drinking so much H2O daily, I can’t keep up with the smaller buckets. I switch the plants to 20 gallons trash cans (About $20 at walmart, doubt they are food grade though…) so that I can go closer to a week before I have to add more water and nutrients. Just wanted to share, that’s what works for me. And I’m usually harvesting a zucchini+ everyday from each plant through the summer!

@KeepOnGrowin Год назад

Awesome! Thanks for the heads up!

@mexarrinha Год назад

Good work! If you heat the hole, you can make it bend, that will make it easier to put the pool noodle facing up

@KeepOnGrowin Год назад

Thank you, I don't want to mess with all that. Trying to make it as simple as possible to get more people growing.

@mexarrinha Год назад

@@KeepOnGrowin I know, its just I can't find any good growing dirt because most of them attracts flies and I'm trying to grow indoors. I'll give it a shot

@cajunvegan7716 Год назад

@orangeswell1469 Год назад

Very cool. Might pick up a box tower set to try. I suppose w/ the water outside the bag, you're also increasing the time it takes to heat up.

@ronm6585 Год назад

Appreciate all your experiments. Thank you.

@lenaf7758 Год назад

I'm in an apartment complex and grow in a shared space, sometimes I worry that my neighbors think the buckets look junky, but those tan/terracotta buckets look nice! Where'd you get them from?

@KeepOnGrowin Год назад

WalMart deli for $1 each. My wife painted them with spray paint. I will do a video on it soon.

@DarinONeal-ql2xm 5 месяцев назад

I've learned how to grow hydroponics from watching you , thanks , why should buckets be food grade when it's holding nutrients

@KeepOnGrowin 5 месяцев назад

That's a personal choice. Just letting people know it is available.

How many times have you had to top the tomatoes and peppers up? Are you just adding water or are you adding nutrients when you top up?

I'm doing kratky with mop buckets and calebdar perlite

Can’t wait to try this. Wondering why my nutrient solution alway has crud in it. Like sediment or something. Any suggestions?

I don't worry about it.

@brendaric6614 Год назад

And even if not fruiting at least you can eat the blooms too

@DanandTrish Год назад

What should the outside day and night temps be in order to do this?

@PlantObsessed Год назад

I'm starting to see some discoloration on my tomato leaves moving to yellow. Any ideas? Or do you have videos that addresses trouble shooting? Thanks for what you do. Just had my first kratky salad last night.

@KeepOnGrowin Год назад

Sorry, don't know. This is my first attempt with this set up.

@orangeswell1469 Год назад

Apologies if this is too obvious, but whenever I see yellow leaves, I check... water levels, temp, lighting, mold, bugs. Usually it's the water getting way lower than I expected, or I filled up too high and drowned an air root.

@PlantObsessed Год назад

@@orangeswell1469 I am super new at this I wonder if I did drowned an air root. It lives in my orchid cabinet so light and temperature are even. I will get the loop out and look for bugs. Thank you for the help.

@orangeswell1469 Год назад

@@PlantObsessed NP! Hope you figure it out. My first mistake was thinking I had bugs and sprayed all the leaves with apple cider vinegar. It got rid of the mold, but it ended up burning all the leaves. So i learned to go slow and try one plant at a time with my "fixes". 😂

@PlantObsessed Год назад

@@orangeswell1469 I added some cal mag to 2 of the jars. I'll see in a few days if they green up.

@sjfuqua Год назад

Are your tomato plants in partial shade? People seam to be having an issue with the sun burning up plants now and they say they're growing better in shade. Your thoughts?

@KeepOnGrowin Год назад

They are up against my house, get about 3 to 4 hours of direct sun and then shade.

@@KeepOnGrowin thank you!
