So here is a suggestion on how to reuse the soil. In the fall when your summer plants are dying/gone go to Home Depot or Lowe’s and get a big storage container. Then put all the dirt in them and mix in some dead leaves, grass clippings, and food scrapes. Keep moist and you will have renewed soil for next year!
That’s what I did last year. I stuffed all the leaves from the garden clean up late fall into a bin with used potting soil and then I added compost microbes from Lowe’s and I was shocked at the beautiful soil I have waiting to plant this year.
I’ve spent the last month doing research as I am preparing for my garden. I’ll be using grow bags for 90% of my vegetables and flowers and it’s been impossible finding a in depth video. I absolutely love this video. Everything I needed to know explained and detailed!
A cheap plastic kid's pool is a great way to water growbeds from underneath. Letting water wick up keeps the surface dry so less weeds can germinate. Put a hole in the pool about 3" from the bottom so it can't get too full from the rain. Put a mosquito dunk in the water to kill the larvae. You can leave your plants much longer that way than watering with a hose. One pool fits a lot of bags, depending on the sizes used.
I have my grow bags on plant stands with casters... (the round plant stands that they sell at Lowes/HD), I find them easier to move. They are also easy/inexpensive to make, which I eventually did the more bags I bought. The plant stands at the store are not inexpensive so by making them I saved some money and instead put those savings towards more seeds/soil ect. We had an extra cedar fence panel that didn't get used so I took the panels apart and cut them into 12x12 and build a plant stand and added casters... they turned out nice. Now I know how to make them for anything that I need help with moving. All it cost me where the $10.00 casters., and that was because I went with the expensive casters.. which honestly is not necessary. Also if you aren't good with tools you can find real good wooden cutting boards at the thrift stores for around $2.00, all you have to do is screw the casters and call it a day (those I would seal properly so they last longer). And that's how I move my bags or heavy ceramic pots... or anything heavy that I can't move alone... even furniture 😅
I've been growing in fabric pots for over ten years. Never really thought of combining vermiculite with with a fabric grow pot. Heard a lot negative things about to much water retention with vermiculite in traditional plastic pots. Makes a lot of sense in a fabric pot situation. Thank you for the great information.
I’m hoping you will see this :) Can a canvas tote bag be repurposed to make a grow bag or does it not provide enough air circulation/drainage? I’ve been looking on YT for last 30-45m but haven’t found the answer yet.
I’m in Tempe and use grow bags almost exclusively. I have mostly fruit trees in 30 gallon bags but have 10 and 15 gallon bags for other plants (pomegranate, grapes, tomatoes, melons etc). I use my vertical tower for herbs and strawberries. I just found your channel and subscribed because it is hard to find information specific to our climate. I’m looking forward to watching previous videos as I see topics that are relevant to my garden.
I bought last year 4 giant grow bags and filled them with a even mix of coco coir sand manure compost and added blood meal with bone meal ,I grew so many sweet potatoes last year and I was able to stick my hand in and occasionally check the size of my harvest that was awesome!
@@GrowingInTheGarden VERY helpful, just got 16 10 gallon grow bags delivered today. Buying a bunch of chicken wire tomorrow gettin ready for Spring!!!!!
I have some I just came across they are black but I am going to use them I live in ga I am getting started late this year due to health issues but I am going to grow something in some of them thank for the great video
I am so excited to find your channel!! I came from high desert gardening (Colorado) and was worried about the heat here in Maricopa County. So stoked to see your garden and that you have had success with bags. Thank you for such excellent info!!
SO GLAD that I came across your vid on the garden website! This is my first year growing vegetables in a grow bag. I didn't even know they existed until a couple of years ago when my upstairs neighbor used them to grow vegetables on her patio. Wish I had seen this video before I purchased my grow bags because I would have gotten a self-watering grow bag for my tomatoes. Oh well! Next year. I am in a condo and I'm not allowed to plant outside so I am doing my garden 100% indoors this year and hoping for the best.
Thank you very much for all info you shared. Short yet detailed explanation of necessary tips, especially for some people who has 0 knowledge just like me:)
Wow I'm a beginner gardener and this channel is so awesome! The tips are direct to the point and the illustrations are great. I screenshotted the illustrations so I can have a ready cheatsheet of what needs to be done. I just subscribed to your channel and looking forward to more of your content.
Wonderful! There is also a blogpost with the illustrations included for future reference: growinginthegarden.com/gardening-in-grow-bags-5-tips-for-success/
I’m in central NC. Just starting a small victory garden. We have a great area with morning sun and late afternoon shade in the front yard, but with this being my first time gardening, I wasn’t ready to tackle amending the very root filled, clay based soil. Opted for containers and grow bags. Just got 12 fifteen gallon bags yesterday! I’m happy to hear that the “cons” for using grow bags are fairly minimal. This was very helpful. Thank you!!
Hey! I am from India and I just started gardening. This video is excellent for a beginner. You have explained everything so well that I just ordered grow bags! Thank you so much for all the information! ❤
I got some of the raised bed mix from the worm farm this year and have started 6 large bag with tomatoes and cucumbers...I have drip lines set up for all the bags I am using and have it on a timer.. Hoping for a good harvest before the heat comes ...(Tempe AZ here) Love your channel and information.
Clyde685. How did you set up your drip irrigation? I can’t get a soaker hose to water them, unless I bury the bags. Clearly you have a better solution. Help please.
@@mauryhill2552 I use drip hose with emitters Evers 6 inch’s....use about 2 foot piece in bag...under the mulch....this is hooked to standard 1/4 drip line... run to an 5/8 inch supply drip line ....feed from a drip irrigation timer....more info wanted...send email
It's nice to see a channel where you actually interact with your audience. So many don't these days. I look for that in seeing if it's a good channel to subscribe to. Good job for reals.
Great tips, graphics and to the point. Thank you for this excellent info. Would LOVE to see a DIY of the self watering grow bag so it is more affordable. Thanks again!
I have learned a lot about planting in bags I love the idea I do use bags now I will use more I am living in Amelia's Ward linden town Guyana south America 🙏 thanks for sharing my friend let us keep planting 💕
Gardners Supply (and probably other companies too) now sell bags of soil amendments designed to rejuvenate used potting mix in planters and grow bags. Just measure out the correct amount & mix into the soil.
Thank you so much for this video! I'm a beginner gardener and I thought I would start out with some grow bags. This video was so informative! I'm a new subscriber and I'm about to binge all of your videos!
Will miracle growth poting soil for veggies work for theses bags I'm a newbie on useing them . I've been useing pots put I wanted to try theses cause I live in the desert and alot of times tge pots just get way too hot
Last summer I planted corn in three large 20 gallon grow bags (6 corn seeds per 20-inch diameter bag). They grew superbly and produced much more corn that the corn I direct sowed into the ground. This year will expand to six bags, and again place them in a cluster to encourage pollination.
I rarely comment, however your content is A+ your pleasant personality is evident in your presentation, comment responses and definitely in your plants thriving in your climate ❤
Love your channel. Thank you for what you do. I use a lot of grow bags so when I saw the self watering one on here, I thought awesome. However, 80$ for one self watering grow bag is not affordable and 117$ for the one with the trellis is ‘in my opinion’ ridiculous’. You could make a 4 x 8 bed out of wood for that cost.
I would use a tray with a drain hole instead, you could even make your own design. . If it rains too much you can let the water out. I get wet summers, sometimes, self watering pots aren't great then.
I have to tell you that I hardly ever comment on videos but I had to comment on this one! It is such a well put together and informative video!!! I am a novice gardener and only used grow bags as of last year and was not really that successful. I feel like now, after watching your video, I will have much more success this year! Thank you!!! 🌱🍓🍅🫑🥬🥕🌽
Thanks very much for this video. It was really informative. I'm using grow bags and I've learnt things I didn't know. I really appreciated that you gave the volume in litres as well as gallons, I'm in Australia and it can be a pain always converting this. Thanks again.
I’m so glad I found your channel! I am in Las Vegas so the heat here is a huge issue for gardening.

Thanks for all this info!
That's a nice tomato plant you grew in that bag. Thanks for the video. A deep pot will be soggy at the bottom and dry on top. I grow in a one foot wide, 10 inch deep plastic pots atm, trying grow bags this spring.
You bet! I kick myself for not paying attention to my grandfather's green thumb, it was HUGE, I could have been a really good gardener had I taken the time to ask questions and watch. I took advantage of his delicious food, of course I was just a child, but, hey live and learn and watch videos from people such as yourself, so thank you!
good morning; thank you for all this information I love it so much, it is really helpful, love your way of talking clear for me, nice nice, success with all I subscribed, bravoo
Our first year using grow bags. Agree there is a learning curve with watering. Seems the bags not only dry out top to bottom, but outside to inside. Would like to try some brown ones to see if they reduce heat compared to black. Thanks for great information!
So glad I ran across u lli just bought grow bags and wanted to try them..the large bag I was wondering how many tomatoe plants I should plant in them.I’m starting seed this week for the first time..I hope they work!!
Thank you for this info. I use regular garden soil in these bags, right? I already have a garden area but would like to use these bags this year. Can I just scoop out my soil which has a good amount of compost from out compost bin. Thank you!
Your Videos are so wonderful and informational. Your garden is almost as beautiful as you! I've been having so much trouble with soggy pots, I just came in from my sad yellowing pepper plant and for this on my youtube, perfect timing. Thank you.
Hi, this video was greatly presented. I’m seeing the same advice that you mention in the video of having a larger bag than minimum for the plant to have access to more soil and nutrients/water retention. I want to grow my broccoli, kale, bok choy in grow bags. Interested in peas, carrots, cabbage, and collard greens as well. Would all these be safe with 5 gallon bags? Or should I go for 7 gallon just to be safe? As I’m fall planting, I think black would be the best color even if the summer heat is extreme here… I could find some shade when it comes around.
we used to grow tons in grow bags. but now we ahve more space we dont. However they are super good, but they do try out a lot. I have ended up giving them to much mum as she grows in pots.
Your information was so plentiful and the way you got right to the points that you were making, made this a great video for me and my container gardening. Was thinking about adding in a grow bag or two this season so I clicked on. Glad I did😌 I'm subbing!
Excellent, clear explanation and introduction to Grow bags. Thank you I had not heard of these type of containers for gardening. I will be looking into these grow bags. Thank you Subscribed to you channel.
I had the opposite experience with grow bags and soil. I found that the bottom of them stayed soggy and wet and then I ended up with some root rot, ect. I had to put cinderblocks underneath so that they were off the ground and could drain. If just set on the ground how frequently should you water because my 2X a week was too much but in our summers I imagine it can vary. Also probably varries by plant. I want to like these but just haven't had a good experience. Maybe I'll try trees in them. How often do you water them
I suck at gardening I bought tomato seeds and planted literally 30 tomato plants on a tiny pot hahahaha so at least that's 1 lesson learnt and I now bought 5x10GAL containers and I'm gonna split the tomato plants in them.. I have plenty of sun (Israel) and 6 great children who love to see stuff grow but so far I only did well with spring onion which literally needs nothing to grow hahahaha
So here is a suggestion on how to reuse the soil. In the fall when your summer plants are dying/gone go to Home Depot or Lowe’s and get a big storage container. Then put all the dirt in them and mix in some dead leaves, grass clippings, and food scrapes. Keep moist and you will have renewed soil for next year!
Good idea, thanks.
I suggest you put drainage holes in said container or it'll become pretty wrank.
@@CrispyOkra Oh of course! I always do that but forgot to put it in the comment.

Is the water containing mosquito dunk safe to be reabsorbed by the plant?
I'm planning on using a layer of rocks as a base layer in my pool to keep mosquitoes down... I hope it works!

Hi Angela, Any do-not-experiences to share on grow bags? As, is it necessary to secure air flow beneath them to avoid mould?
I have mine on top of wood chips and that seems to work fine. If the drainage is poor where yours are you may want to elevate them.
So glad I ran across u lli just bought grow bags and wanted to try them..the large bag I was wondering how many tomatoe plants I should plant in them.I’m starting seed this week for the first time..I hope they work!!

I suck at gardening I bought tomato seeds and planted literally 30 tomato plants on a tiny pot hahahaha so at least that's 1 lesson learnt and I now bought 5x10GAL containers and I'm gonna split the tomato plants in them.. I have plenty of sun (Israel) and 6 great children who love to see stuff grow but so far I only did well with spring onion which literally needs nothing to grow hahahaha
