This is so on time. I'm a fairly recent subscriber who larger uses containers. My first tomato plant is in a 10 gal bag. There's not much advice out there for fabric bags. I was worried about overwatering but from observation I realized that I'd been underwatering my determinate Rutger plant that recently started flowering. I have 8 other plants that I've grown from seed that I just transplanted. I'll be following along for all of your advice.
Also I got my GreenStalk like a month ago and I love it so much! Everything is growing faster there. Thanks for the discount!
Awesome comparison with the fabric pots thanks for sharing your videos as always
I have 3 raised beds and 5 of your 10 gallon grow bags. I love them! I grow my Determinate tomatoes in the grow bags and my Indeterminate Tomatoes in one of my raised beds ❤️
I LOVE the Root Pouches! I have 8 of them and use them for my Determinate tomatoes, as I grow my indeterminate variety tomatoes in my raised beds ❤️
Mind blown, Gary! One of your best demo videos. Makes so much sense. Thanks for supporting such a great company 👏
Glad to help. The determinate tomatoes are worth growing this way for sure

That is a really good point based on needs of the area you grow

So glad you posted this. You answered all of my questions. I’m thinking about adding more tomato plants to my garden but am out of space in my raised beds. I also plan on having a fall garden so now I don’t have to worry about the tomatoes taking up space from that.
I love how these are growing

Fabric pots have been awesome for me since the actual ground is soggy wet most of the summer. I got close to 30 large tomatoes off of one tomato plant (heat resistant variety called Marion) in a 7 gal fabric pot. Really cool to see the air pruning effects! I'm switching all my fruit trees, even large trees into 30-40 gal fabric pots. Such a great invention!
EXCELLENT! Perfect timing Just planted in beds, now starting containers. This info is perfect, didn't realize about the air pruning at all - makes a HUGE difference & adds lots of flexibility now. Can't wait to get mine going this weekend.
Glad to help

I'm using grow bags for the first time this year. My garden has been in my front yard the last several years and the biggest challenge was figuring out where to place plants due to the large maple tree there. Last year, I got notice that our county was going to do road improvements and need part of my front yard--new challenge in how far up they will come into the yard! These bags will help solve that problem because I will be able to move them if I have to!
Good luck and I hope they dont take too much

nice looking plants I like the idea that you can't over water In a fabric pot I was surprised to here that
Thanks. It is one benefit
Last year I grew both determinate and indeterminate tomatoes in fabric pots. It was the worst crop ever. I think most of it had to do with watering. I watered every day, but I think most of it ran down the sides of the pots. I invested in quite a few fabric pots, so after watching your video I will give them another try next year. Thank you!
Try the cheap plastic saucers to set them in... and I really use a lot of peat in my container mix. I even add to it if I buy potting mix. Good luck

Hi Gary, I had this idea for the root bags and I actually have did this. I put my root bag in a plastic garbage bag so I don't have to water much and when the plant gets to a size I think roots are going to come out, I just pull the bag down on the sides. This allows me to keep plants moist and save on water until they get bigger. Works great!
patricia morehouse I have a kids pool with a short fence around it so the pool doesn’t show and that works well too 😀
Started my second wave of tomatoes a couple of weeks ago. My first frost date is 29 November. I grew marglobe tomatoes in 15 gallon containers the first part of summer and they did great, but they are winding down now
I did the same 3 weeks ago. My FF date is between 11/23 & 12/14
Gary, your place is so nice. Nice video.
Thanks so much

Wow those little seedling pouches look awesome. What variety of marigolds are those?
I’ve been growing in felt buckets for a few years now. I grow indeterminate tomatoes in 17 gallon buckets. They are still light and the handles are strong enough to lift when full. One problem I have found is if they get a lot of rain or they touch each other mold can grow on the outside.

Very informative as usual. All my gardening is in containers both hydroponic and potting mixes that I make up. The hydroponic tomatoes hands down beat the grow bag tomatoes both in growth and production. I think my big problem with grow bags is under fertilization and inconsistent watering. The other problem in reusing potting mixes is the weeds still pop up, sometimes ruthlessly.
Hi Blake, is hydrophonic expensive or hard to keep the NPK at correct levels?
@@patriciamorehouse5704 The initial outlay for hydroponics is pricey, but everything except the fertilizer (masterblend tomato formula) is reusable. My tomatoes were grown in 5 gallon buckets with aeration (air pump needed). Since tomatoes can use up so much water in their life cycle, the buckets need to be replenished often. Keep a 30 gallon tote with nutrient solution at the ready for this. Hate to say it, but I don't pay too much attention to the NPK because the testors are so expensive nor do I put a fresh batch of nutrient solution in as some recommend on the internet. Just top off from the pre-mixed tote. Actually rain is your worst enemy in screwing up outdoor hydroponics where the grow bags don't have that problem since they are porous. But then again, the grow bags being porous, your fertilizer is draining as well and this is why I probably have some problem with grow bags and not fertilizing enough.

I've got 6 in fabric, 3 outdoors in planters and 2 in large pots. The fabric is good but needs regularly watering I'm comparison to the pots up to twice a day. Fabric plants are also more prone to environmental leaf curl
Thanks. I agree with watering. A trick is plastic saucers to sit them in. Sometimes you can find them and a great price.

When it gets too hot and impossible to keep containers watered I put a deep saucer temporarily under the fabric pots. During this time they recycle ALL predigested nutrients and they stay moist and THRIVE
Saucer is a great idea

Hi Gary. I have a Big Rainbow seedling that is odd looking. It's growing fast and looks like there are no disease but at this stage, aren't there suppose to have suckers around? It does seem to have leaf branches that are irregularly 1/2 and inch or so from the next branch. Also there seemed to be a 2nd leader stem that was not from a suckers. Is that all normal? Or do indeterminate tomatoes grow suckers later on? Thanks for your help. I really need to understand my plants better
I like to recycle whatever mix I am growing in so at the end of the year I have a stack of plastic grow buckets filled with the mix standing outdoors. After sitting through Autumn and Winter I empty them out into a wheelbarrow in Spring add some fertiliser then re charge and 'plant up' the buckets again. This year I am trying fabric bags. I have nowhere else I could sit the mix over the colder months so it's my intention to overwinter the mix in the bags. Have you ever done that? Will the bags 'hold out', what do you think. Jim.
All my bags stayed full through the winter

Hello Gary I have been shopping for grow bags and used a few. I’m really liking the production like you say it’s more growth for the size.
I watched the root pouch guy from Australia I’m thinking he said that brown bag uses entrapment.
Ah what is entrapment. I agree with the production

@@THERUSTEDGARDEN thank you Gary I already ordered and using your neem and peppermint oil. Works good
@@lindegirl333 I used potting soil and bought called Black Magic
What type of ground cover is under and around you fabric pots?
When you say 60 to 80 days you mean from the day of planting the seed or from the day of transplanting? I planted the seeds in the end of May and by the end of September they are still in the process of producing, so I would say 60 to 80 days is ultra fast.Probably you live in a warmer climate.
They look really nice Gary, I dont see much if any disease, my container garden seemed riddled with wilt last year, is the idea to catch, stop and remove any disease immediatly to stop the spread? I think I may have caught on too late,,,If a garden is infected should you start over?
Thanks for all your videos :)
That is the idea. I do spray mine preventatively just before stuff arrives.

Hi Gary. What do you do with your fabric pots at the end of the season? Do you empty out the soil and wash them out? If so, how? Thanks for your time! :-)
So my brother piles the soil on a tarp and puts them in the shed. Just keep them off ground as mice will nest in them. I am leaving mine out. Giving them a year round test for durability.

Gary tell me how you prevent any problem that attacks the peppers...I have some pepper plant but the leaves got a bit curl up and brown color and looks smaller ..any help I would appreciate it..thanks
I love grow bags, but, I had bad results growing tropical clumping bamboo in them.
I think grasses may have a tougher time in them, because of root structure.
Bamboo dies very quickly when the roots dry.

Trying it with peppers and bucket drilled holes in it and I’m seeing leafs curl close to the stem like a central shervel to much 💦?❤️🙏👨🏼🌾
I clicked on the link for the fabric pots. I looked for the root pouch brand but only see COLIBYOU, Bootstrap, Smart Pot, VIVOSUN, and HONGVILLE. Which one do you recommend? I planted seeds today to germinate indoors. I have 2 types of tomato (2 are determinate and 1 is indeterminate), zucchini, basil, dill, 2 types of cucumber, and peas. Should I purchase 5 and 10 gallon fabric pots? Thank you for your time.
I tried cloth bags 10 gal but they are square. They are heavy for me and the soil really expands on all sides when watering. I think the round bags would have been better.
I see you use your grow bags on top of mulch and water from the top. I’m wondering if they could be used like other grow bags where they water them from the bottom sitting in a shallow container, sometimes with sand or pebbles.
Yep you can do that. Lots of people fill a kiddy pool with fabric pots and water that way.

Hi gary I don't know wether you know in this or not I order from a really good nursery besode me a 1 meter tall peach tree I was going to make it dwarf by pruning it and I learned so much about this but When it cam I foun it is 2 meter could I cut the upper half of the main stem or it will die
I bought so some 5 gallon containers..so I poke holes underneath?
So the third year for my homemade grow bags, I think 7 gallon. I sewed them from the woven fabric that lumber comes wraped in from the saw mill. I do not use the wrappers from presurved wood. What is your thought about using ths recycled fabric. All grows well, tomates, potatoes and pot, but watering is key.
Nice on making them. I think that is a fine use.

Any advice on growing potatoes in the fabric pots?
I bought a couple of these last week but was unsure on what to plant in them
They make some just for potatoes with a side opening and all.
What is your current recommendation on the use of 'Epsom Salts' in your tomatoes? I ask because I've learned that using it when your plants don't actually need Magnesium can prevent your plant from being able to 'take up' Calcium thus resulting in Blossom End Rot. I know that you have no problem 'correcting course' if you discover something your doing is not what you thought but I couldn't find an UPDATED video since your 2014 one talking about the use of this chemical.
Ms. Byrd he actually put out a video for that one day after your comment, I don’t know if you saw that so just giving you a heads up 😀
Was I supposed to use lime? For some reason I thought tomatoes needed that in pots??Thank you😎
What size grow bags for early jalapeños and Roma’s? Will 5 gallon bags per plant suffice?
For any pepper yes. For Roma, though a determinate, you would just have to make sure you keep up on the watering. I recommend a 10 gallon for determinate tomatoes. 15-20 for indeterminate. You have to imagine how big they will be when mature.

3:56 Gary, what size are the root pouches are you using to grow your seedlings? Thank you.
Those are pint and quart. I wanted to test them out. You do need use a butter knife to slide along the inside of the fabric to to cut the roots and pop them out. The quart size are easier to manage. That is the one I popped the marigold out of.

I’m growing indeterminate and determinate tomatoes 🍅 in 7 gal bags on my deck. So far they’re doing well but no fruits yet
Have been using bags for 3 seasons now...don’t use less than ten gallons as really holds roughly seven true gallons of soil
He recommends 15 gallon for indeterminate types but I use 10 gallon successfully. I will buy 15 gallon in the future but using what I have until then.
Thanks for the info. It is much appreciated.

SO I am testing them out and hope to get them. I can recall if they came in a big pallet order I got, maybe greenhousemegastore.

Looking forward to trying these fabric pots sometime soon. I wonder how they do with raspberries and other Bramble transplants or cuttings.

I didn't understand at first. You cleared things up for me. But the one question I do have is I do apartment growing on a patio. Do the bags bottoms have to be off the ground for air flow?
No because the air flows through the sides.
You may want to put a circular flower pot dish under them if you have a wooden porch. The moisture tends to stain the wood and rot it.
@@lindahipple4817 your right I didn't think of that because mines are outside.
👍

Hi. I have a question. How often do you water tomatoes ? Thank you
For regular pots I was overwatering. Drowning plant. Try poking finger in soil for moisture. Or look at drainage holes of pot. If soil dark, most likely sufficient water. Think a lot of my problems come from overwatering. Will experiment with Rusted Garden recommendation of felt pots. (Can't really overwater because of porous pot material). Makes sense. Good luck!
I find the bags dry quickly. How to keep it a bit moisture. Should I water the outside with a hose?
Yep, you can wet the fabric.

When you use store bought organic potatoes as your seed potatoes, how do you know whether they're determinate or indeterminate?
You dont but most of them and determinate varieties so grow them that way. Or if you get a variety name look them up. But often they just say Red or Yellow potatoes.

Is there a difference between woven bag and fabric bags? And how long can the fabric bag stand in the nursery before breaking down?
Not really but the material is what you have to look at. Woven can be natural fibers that break down fast. Fabric post are often recycled plastic that last.

How do you prevent rodents from tearing holes into the fabric grow bags? They destroyed them all this year. Also they tore chunks out of my tomato fruit even those I tried to protect by covering in bird netting or an old piece of cloth.
Oh no. So all you can really do is trap and kill them. Look for places where they might nest in your garden and make nesting option scarce.

Hi
Why my tomato plants leaves are getting curly?
I'm growing tomatoes in grow bags for the first time and one downside I've encountered is during watering, any water that doesn't immediately soak into the soil tends to leak out the sides of the bag. This leads me to need to water daily or the plants wilt the next day.
I've had the same issue, usually the cure is to churn up the top layer of mulch and soil especially around the outer edges, followed by a heavy watering. If the fabric pots don't get stuffed with soil well enough from the beginning, it's more likely to shrink when dehydrated, causing the water to run down the sides between the soil and the fabric. Bottom reservior watering works great for fabric pots for this reason.
Hi, what I do with mines is take one of my kabobs sticks and poke holes around my stems so when I water it goes right on in, and in the middle. It doesn't have to be a kabobs sticks just something similar. Take care.
How much soil do you use for your grow pots say ten gallons and best mulch
I have growbag trays that stop the water leaking away
@@akersquarteracre8002 great idea about the bottom reservoir watering for this. How long should I soak plants in a reservoir? I'm worried about mosquitoes
Can roses survive in grow bags and do well?

Hi Gary, what Is the difference between potting soil and garden soil ?
Potting soil is garden soil mixed with peat moss (to hold moisture) and other various items for drainage. Garden soil is dense and has no draining properties and has no peat moss or coco coir (also to hold moisture). If you're buying from Miriclegro do NOT buy Garden soil! it hardens into a rock and has no good properties (drainage or moisture holding). If you're going to buy miracle gro's potting soil in bulk, buy from Bj's or Costco (or make it) . If you buy garden soil, find DIY recipes for Potting Mix.
Sorry for the long reply I messed up on my plants by going the cheap way and it has affected my plants production.
Deborah got it. More peat or coco coir or combo in potting mix.

Thank you Deborah. That has helped considerably. It has resolved a lot of my confusion.
I live in Ohio and last week was excessively high temps 90+ degrees fir about 6 days. My tomatoes, which were previously thriving, lost all their yellow blossoms. My watering and fertilizing is good. Did the heat cause the yellow flowers to stop? If so will they start back up? They turned into brown stick-like things that just hang on the plant.
So did they start back up after the heatwave or not?
@@romangp8877 YES! It took a week or two, but then they did fine.
This is my first year to try to grow in fabric pots. We usually do get quite a bit of rain in the spring, but we really are inundated this year. It’s like a monsoon! The tomatoes that are planted in the bags seem to be doing all right, but one of them has white mold growing on the outside of the bag….only on one side of the bag. I’m not sure what to do about this, whether I need to try and repot the plant, whether to try and segregate it to keep the mold from spreading ( if it would), or what. As much rain as we’ve had, I still have to water in the fertilizer, so when I had the water hose out (which does have a hose-end filter), I sprayed it off, and it looked like it just washed off, but then I noticed the next time I was out there that it’s back. Any ideas what to do about this? Thanks for all your many instructional videos. I’m a long-time subscriber.
Outside of the bag is normal and wont hurt anything. Moss will grow too. Since the fabric holds moisture, moss and algae grow on it.

Hi! I'm looking for some information on growing tomatoes for flavor/sweetness. I don't mean in terms of variety. I'm convinced that growing conditions have an impact on flavor. I've used several methods over the years and some seasons, the same variety turns out amazing and other times quite bland (hydroponic growing being the worst, but even soil growing seems to vary year to year with the same variety). You've made a video on just about everything...growing for fruit size, growing for production, but I don't see any videos on growing tomatoes for flavor. Am I missing it somewhere?
You cant easily influence flavor but lots of watering and rain can sometimes diminish flavor do to lots of water intake. Consistent soil prep and watering fixes that. But I dont know of any specific way.

Hi Gary. Wondering if the tomato roots come out the bottom like you’re saying they do on the sides. and it seems that this would. make it impossible to move them without damage? 2nd question. I bought an heirloom chocolate tomato from Costco. It’s finally doing really well. It gave me a few golf ball sized tomatoes that blushed so I picked them and brought them inside to finish. Now, two weeks or so later, it is loaded with tomatoes, all getting pretty good sized and all green. I’m guessing that it is a determinate from what you said about determinates growing and then giving all their ripe tomatoes more or less at the same time. can you tell me if heirlooms tend to be Determ. or Indeterm? I not long have the tag that came with it. Thanks.
Google says most heirloom tomatoes are indeterminate
Do you think bush beans would do well in a fabric pots?
Jeanne Williams, yes beans will grow well, just remember to water them and feed them. I grow lots of different veggies and flowers in my grow bags. I have 15 gal size and have been using grow bags for several years. Garden on!
Linda Hipple thank you!
I’m currently growing Blue Lake bush beans, soybeans and Dragon’s Tongue beans in 10 gallon fabric pots and they are doing great! Give it a try and good luck.
I agree with Linda and Kylie... for sure.

Is there a way to tell if a tomatoe is determinate if it doesn’t say on the label? Not sure on a couple of my plants and hesitant to pull off suckers.
if you know the variety, Google it. Most places that carry seeds will have all that info on the varieties they sell. If the variety is unknown, you'll just have to wait and see, I think! : )
As Wendy said. Search the variety and it should come up but aside from that no.
