I made the mistake of using 10 gallon buckets. I can't move them when they've been watered! Plus side... I planted a tomato plant, basil, and marigolds in one bucket. Another bucket has cucumbers, oregano, and nasturtiums. I love my little mini gardens!
Yeah that would be a back breaker to move! Oooh you got a whole companion planting mini garden in one bucker, me and tuck like to hear it!
Tell me about it lol. I have a few 18” pots. One of them has a third-year orange bell pepper plant in it. So heavy! And I am in northern Michigan. So I had to move the pot in and out every day in May to get more sun for my dying pepper plant (aphids problem) while avoiding the < 50F night temperature. I found that the 14” pots are a lot more manageable. Currently I have six 14” pots with second-year pepper plants, and another 6 with zucchini in them. Also four with cucumber plants on each side of a cattle panel at the entrance of my door (using the 14” pots to make the panel stay in place).
Awww....minigardens....yes they are!!!
I have about 20 planted containers on my patio, I use a plant saucer and a plant caddy underneath This way it is easy to water and move the plants around.
@@luiseschmid7960 👍
James, I have found that drilling holes about an inch or two from the bottom up the sides of the buckets. That way, water doesn't drain right through, you have a slight water reservoir at the bottom. I do add one smaller hole at the middle of the bottom.
I do the same but no bottom hole.
@@Tazzyone. I put a very small hole at the middle. I always think about stagnant, stinky water. Lol
That sounds like it would work better in our high desert garden!
Love this.!
That's what I do too.
Bro is like the chilliest dude on earth no wonder your vegetables grow for you.
Tuck is the boss and we all love him. We need more Tucks in this world!

One of the best intros yet. Always clicking on James' videos for his energetic delivery and informative content.
I love learning from your videos ❤❤❤ oh and your little dog is so cute❤
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Waiting on my Soldacki tomatoes to ripen! First year growing because of you! I'll let you know how my first tomato sandwich with one is!
Yes! I am doing this right now, so this is very applicable (I’m an apartment patio gardener). ❤️❤️❤️s for the boss!
Glad to hear that Hillary! Me and Tuck are going to be doing some more veggies in container videos this year as well. We are having a lot more fun growing in containers than we thought we would lol
@@jamesprigioni yes, it’s amazing what can be accomplished I containers! You are right in saying that limited space is never an excuse for not gardening. I have a thriving flower and veggie garden, and they are ALL in containers!
@@jamesprigioniI am using a huge Rubbermaid container, and have it up on two rolling plant stands with drilled holes along one side that the lid can put under to catch the drips. It is on my west facing patio, and keeps producing cherry tomatoes through November. One white tomato still tasted fresh and delicious here in April!

Let's Gooo Mister Smith!
😂😂😂😂❤ I see what you did there Sir!!

Great to see you again! I ate my first cucumber of the season today and couldn’t stop thinking about how much tuck would love it! Excited to see when you guys are back.
❤️❤️❤️

That was great! What a lovely sunny day too! Thank you.
Squash plants have such beautiful leaves and blossoms, they're worth growing for their decorative value alone. The vegetables are simply a bonus.
Very true Stara! 😁
Both leaves and blossoms are also edible. Give it a try. 😉
So Love our zucchini, we grow tons like you in buckets and totes and small flower pots. How Fun.
Hope tuck is ok…he is such a precious little guy🤣. Thanks for your videos!
Yeah he is already back to his energetic self Sharon! 🐕❤️
For your potting soil mix, if you don't have the first two ingredients on hand, you can substitute leaf mold for both. I much prefer leaf mold anyway because it's more sustainable, and you can get a nearly unlimited supply of leaves each autumn if you haul away your neighbors' leaf piles. The only problem is can take up to a year before it's ready.
Congrats on getting to over 1 million subs!!! That’s friggin’ awesome!
Bravo to you, Tuck and mystery camera person!!!

Love the container gardening tips! Like you said, I'm using these containers to practice and prepare for whenever I get lucky enough to have an in ground garden. ❤️❤️❤️ To Tuck!! My garden mascot is my cat, Finn, but he's been up to shenanigans in the patio garden. He broke a full bottle of fish fertilizer on the patio! I hope he becomes as helpful as Tuck! ❤️❤️❤️

First, also just wanted to say love your vids mate 👍
Let's Gooo!! Thank you my friend, me and Tuck have a blast making them so we are happy to hear you enjoy them like us!
My dude! I've been wandering around my garden the past few days looking at lengthy vines wondering what to do to get it producing, was thinking nutrient angle.
And the simple answer is cut 'em! Love this channel for golden info nuggets such as this.
Keep growing in good health!
I love that you share your hard earned knowledge with the rest of us. God bless you!
The only thing in this video that I would recommend differently is when you were drilling holes in the bucket. If you put holes in the side near the bottom edge the bucket can be used a lot longer. With holes in the bottom the bottom will bust out much much sooner. Also since I live in a really hot environment (in Texas) I put the holes up maybe 6" from the bottom on the side of the bucket. It will retain water but when it's 90-100 degrees outside your plant will drink it all in no time. A tomato plant for example can drink a gallon of water in just one afternoon. Also this prevents the roots from forming a solid hard ball. The slight 'soaking effect' actually allows the plant to have better access to water from all the roots.
This is very helpful
Thanx for the tip! (My parents are from Texas.. hi from BC Canada!)
I do this in Pennsylvania but you have to be careful of root rot, so my holes are 2" from the base on the sides.
@@Tazzyone. This is important to note. I also am careful about watering, as in how much I water given the specific conditions. If it's not as hot then I just use 'enough'.
If you dont drill holes in the bottom the water will get stagnant and anaerobic which is bad. Smells like sewage. You have to have some holes in the very bottom. Holes are not only for drainage but the roots need air so they dont rot.
Love seeing planting of seed and following through to harvest!

How is it going so far?
@@ioschris great! I have a flower garden and a vegetable garden. My second year I've dealt with blight on my tomatoes and mildew on my cucumbers. We've had such weird weather in Boston. Excited for next year!! This year's favorite were the sugar sweet peas and salt and pepper cucumber
@@wakeupitskelsey wow you’ve accomplished alot. I’ve asked because I started gardening about 1 month ago and I have a lot of stuff growing. Cucumber, carrots, radish, a ton of herbs. I just been binging growing videos trying to take in as much as possible. So I don’t make minimum mistakes. U can’t avoid them especially as a new gardener. That’s awesome that you are growing cucumbers, powdery mildew is from a lack of airflow through the plant!
@@ioschris that sounds amazing!!! You're doing so well!
Thank you for the tip about lack of airflow that's totally possible. I have my veggies on my front porch so it could definitely be lack of airflow I did even more containers this year and it was challenging.
Fantastic man! I have a squash plant in my grow tent that I want to grow on my deck. Now I know that it can be grown this way. Fantastic.
big brother is listening hard!! I didn't even search planting in buckets yet as its next on my list and this just popped up on my recommended list! thank you once again for another great video!!!

Hi James. I've really enjoyed watching your videos. I decided to start a container veggie garden this year and have subscribed to your channel. Thanks for sharing your ideas and I love watching Tuck eat his veggies! I also have gotten valuable information on this video about zuccini and squash growing. Thanks again!
So excited for this video James. growing in containers is very convinent for urban gardeners
Let's Gooo Aidan! Glad to hear that my friend. Me and Tuck are doing a whole series of these this year. Growing in tomatoes in containers is coming and cukes too 😁
As a container gardener, this was very encouraging. Thank you!
Thanks for the upload!
Awe Tuck is so cute 💕💕thanks for your great videos I just started 💖 it's great growing your own food 😊
1st time container gardener, I used ideas and advice from james and I've been able to have a very successful experience so far. I've already started to plan out expanding my garden to incorporate raised beds with my containers to double my growing output.
Thanks James & Tuck for your inthusiasm and your love for growing food!

Wow! Your tomatoes are GIANTS again this year. 🍅
Thank you for this video! Growing zucchinis for the first time this year because my husband loves to eat the flowers. I need to plant in containers only and I wasnt sure about how they would do. I actually sat down now thinking " I hope James has a video about this" and it popped right up. I have had so much success with your growing tips in the past I always give your videos a watch or 3 when I need advice.
Thanks for the great video. I am growing acorn squash for the first time, so thanks for the reminders to keep them on the vine until fully ripe. Hearts and hugs to Tuck.

I live on this incline that makes it impossible to have a ground or raised bed garden. So I have about 30 fabric pots scattered about and and looks beautiful by the time we hit July. It totally transforms my yard and turns it into my personal paradise! However, having all those beds with that much space would be an absolute dream. Lucky! 😁
James, you have the best job on the planet!
Thank you for mentioning to cut off the growth bud on the squash. Last year my Zucchino Rampicante got out of hand.
Instead of making holes in the bottom, how about a few small holes and the big holes an inch or more from the bottom? That way you have a reservoir of water.
When do you harvest the winter squashes? Before a frost or later when they harden?

I did not know that I could plant zuccchini ( summer squash in a 5 gl bucket. I am happy to have seen this video. I have tomatoes and peppers in 5 gl bucket but now I am going to add my squahes. Thank you and keep up the good work.
Hi, James and Tuck! I've always grown zucchini in the ground. Will try starting some in containers. That will give my dogs more room to run around in my small yard.

Great vid, James. Thank you. My New Mexico squash plants are about half the size of your New Jersey plants. What a difference humidity makes (although now that our Southwest monsoon season has started, it's at least no longer in the single digits; still not East Coast humid, but no longer nosebleed dry).

Hi James and Tuck, it's crazy hot here in NJ today. I'm zone 6b and it's 91°. Anyway, I love the container growing idea. I've never tried squash. You've inspired me to give it a try. Thanks James. Hope you and Tuck are chilling out in the air conditioning. Poor buddy couldn't take it outside in today's video. He even looked hot. Thanks again and God bless you, Tuck and your incredible Food Forest. ❤❤
I'm in zone 7/8 and due to a lot of things, only got around to planting our 30 varieties of veggies 2 1/2 months late (mid-June) and I'll say that the only thing that is really growing is the zucchini! It was super hot when we planted, weeks of 95-ish degree days. It made it, from seed, so far, so good...it looks like we are getting some flowers coming up on the plants now.
I’m in NJ also. You can plant squash now and get some fruits before the frost comes. The Zucchino Rampicante is bug free and gives giant fruits.
Tuck is a good puppy thanks for all the tips about the plants especially squash let us keep planting James and tuck thanks for sharing 🙂
