I had a massive heart attack three years ago. I gave up having a garden until I started watching you. Now I grow in pots and raised beds. Thank you so much for doing what you do. I also love your other youtube channel.
That means alot. Thank you
Keep going Sister! If you were my next door neighbor, I'd probably be out there helping you. (and probably irritating you) (I might even start flirting)
I put cardboard inside and around my fiberic bag. Also, you can cut a few hole at the bottom and burry in the ground a few inches. Root will continue to go down.
66.5 year old lady gardener here from Hot, HOT, Humid San Antonio. Also growing on sloped land. Grow Bags are so helpful, but downside here is Definitely getting dry too fast.
Have discovered & ENJOY your channel. God has blessed you with the gift of Teacher along with your Artistry. Practical. Informative, and Beautiful.
Beautiful comment. Good day
I have just retired due to cancer. I am trying to learn all I can to help my son. Your videos have been great and has given me so much information.
In Scotland UK you can NEVER rely on 6hrs of daily sunshine, BUT I have still successfully grown toms in a greenhouse in the cloudiest of weather.
Scotland fans online today! I have a fabric greenhouse and growing tomatoes in there is hard!
Only two things money can’t buy; true love and home grown tomatoes! 😊
I grow my entire garden in grow pots. Thanks to you, it's been a blast and a great harvest all the time.
Great!
Hi thank you for all your tips tips in gardening name I would use the grown bag for growing peppers
@@NextLevelGardeningthanks Brian for sharing your knowledge. I would use the pots for tomatoes
How do u know ow when to use asprin spray VS. Proxide spray? Enjoy your content, were in s. Louisiana 😊
@@meadowgreengreenhouse4731😊😊😊😊
I already watched it twice and realized that I need to take notes in my Garden folder. So much useful information I want to store for the future. Thanks, Brian 👏
Hello, I love this video, my husband and I are older and have knee and back issues and he is now in a wheelchair so we are converting from planting in the ground to planting in containers and just discovered the bags. You explained this perfectly and we would love to try these containers. thank you for all your videos and helpful information. we appreciate all you do
I'm going to grow tomatoes and peppers this way. I've been following you since the pandemic started and I can truly say that I've learned a lot. Keep bringing knowledge
Thank you!
Same here, I found you then too. I have enjoyed seeing you expand your old garden as well as working this new property. I have watched and re watched so many videos of yours. You have definitely helped me out.
@@BaloosCluesOriginal I do too. Happy growing.
@@NextLevelGardening I think there is one thing that they should teach in school. Basic survival. At least one person in every class is going to be faced with a survival situation. Whether it be in the wilderness or a situation that is threatening their life right then and there.
Why do u not put the dirt to the top of bucket? Can u pm me Jan Allison
Hey! Your videos have helped me grow many tomatoes last year. I was actually able to can tomatoes! With your help I will be able to can even more tomatoes this year!!
Me, too! I fell in love with salsa last year, and tomato jam (to live for! 😋), and home canned marinara sauce. I just found out they are full of potassium, so, heck yeah... growing more to can more, too!
I have learned so much from you. This is my 3rd year trying to garden. I live in an apt and can only grow in containers so I really appreciate all of the videos you've shared on container gardening. I would love to win these containers to extend my garden. I would grow either a tomato or pumpkin plant in them.
American living in Norway, I'm excited to finally have a garden, and I'm so glad I found this channel. I think the traditional fabric pots might be just what I need, as we have lots of rain.
My seedlings are sprouting! Here in Upstate NY we are still experiencing uncertain weather from frost to a light dusting of snow. I'm determined to do a great container garden. My tomatoes failed in plastic buckets last year and these tips are so helpful! Thank you for sharing! I'm hoping I can get some growing bags since I live in a mobile home park with limited space to grow food, I'd like to see if they would definitely do better growing in them this year and would like to try using these grow bags. I have indeterminate and determinate seedlings started. I love your Goonies T-shirt, one of the best movies I never get tired of watching!
Here in RI we've escaped Spring snow but are still getting the temps in the thirties. I hope our soil warms up soon. Its hard watching these warm weather gardners huh Mel? It makes me so anxious to get my plants outdoors. We must resist and wait for Mother Nature. 😊
@@BaloosCluesOriginal I have my terrariums on the deck and so far they're doing well. My new rose bush looks peaked so I have it a shot of fertilizer. We're finally getting up to higher fifties low sixties this week. I too am anxious to get my raised beds planted.
@@melissalovesvintage2957 I think my plants are as anxious as I am. I've been plucking pepper flowers. If I don't get them outside soon, I'm afraid they will be stunted. 🤞 #SoilBlessings
@@BaloosCluesOriginal I'll keep my fingers crossed your weather will improve and your plants can get outside.
@@melissalovesvintage2957 I'll keep mine crossed for you too 😊🤞
I use fabric pots all the time because I live on the side of a mountain and do not have much for soil depth. I am growing my garden because of these pots- and I LOVE them!
Great idea ! I live in the foot hills of the Rockies of Wyoming. I’ ll try this.
I'd LOVE to plant some of my summer to fall vegetables in the pots! I started a little backyard garden in 2018 and have slowly grown it ever since. I truly appreciated the knowledge you've shared here over the last couple of years on this platform. You have a gift 🎁 for teaching. Thank you! 💖 🌱🍅🫑🌶🥒
I have already planted my tomatoes in 20 gallon grow bags. We are retired and live in a smaller condo. I don't have much room, but all of my veges are in grow bags. I set them in the back and then plant flowers in front of the bags. In Ohio, it gets humid and rains some in summer. I keep an eye on the pots, inserting my finger to test for moisture. I have learned so much from you. I am 74 years young and will never stop growing things. Thank you for all of your knowledge and for sharing it with us!
Started the string and trellis method last year after finding your videos. 75 year old Georgia gardener and still learning. Thanks for all your info.
You're welcome!
YESSS! Sorry you had to re tape this, but I'm so glad you did! I'm growing an armada of indeterminate tomatoes in 20 gallon fabric bags AND quite a few determinate and even dwarf tomatoes in plastic containers this summer. This is EXACTLY the kind of info I needed! Thank you!
You are SO right about supermarket tomatoes! No flavor. No smell. Nothing. They should be called red cucumbers.
PS: your book is beautiful!
Red cucumbers 🤣🤣🤣👍🏼👍🏼
Red cucumbers is PERFECT!! The only ones I buy now in mid winter are the Campari tomatoes as they seem to have a smidge of flavor, but otherwise yep, totally an unripe red cucumber. 😏
I'm trying large containers this year, keeping my fingers crossed. Great information, I'm following your instructions to the tee. Love your videos, I've learned so much. Look forward to the next one!
The Grassroots Fabric Pots with the plastic liners is such a brilliant idea. The one year I used the regular black grow bags, I resorted to placing them in deep boot trays that I kept filled with water each morning when I watered the plants.
Thanks Brian, Started my 1st garden this year... and due to limited space on this mobile home lot everything is in buckets. I've learned so much watching your channel, thanks for the encouragement, you make it so I feel I can do it. Grow bags would be a real treat, being disabled and on a limited budget... buckets have been had to come by. Goodluck everyone!
I am using garden bags for the first time this year. Right now I have 6 filled with potato’s. They’ve just started breaking the surface of the soil! So excited!! I am expanding my garden into my lawn and plan to use all bags in that area. Thank you for being a trusted source of information!
Hi Brian! That hook trick for growing indeterminate tomatoes is insanely brilliant! I've got an indeterminate tomato seedling and have been wondering how to manage it. I'd planned to plant it in a 5 gallon bucket using the self-watering method, but thanks to you I now know I'm going to need something bigger. Those huge grow bags look perfect - who knew they come in different sizes? :)
As always, I've learned a lot about containers. Especially the trellis methods. However, I only have a small 10x10 patio to grow on. Those fabric pots would really help. Thanks for the great content.
First of all, props on the Goonies shirt! Thank you so much for this detailed guide. This is my first year using fabric pots, and I have some of the same concerns you mentioned. If I win the giveaway I will be so happy to do a side by side comparison between my cheap felt pots and your gorgeous ones. I am eager to see what difference it makes, especially with moisture retention.
That was the first thing I noticed 🙂
Thank you for all your helps and tips. I learn something new every time and I have been a gardener for several years. Thank you again.
Now I realize I need to transplant my tomato plants to larger containers! I have one that's already 7ft tall and still growing, so I look forward to trying this method out. Thank you, as always, for your garden inspirations!
65 yo Iowa gardener here! I would try tomatoes in those growing bags!!!!
I can’t wait to try these fabric pots! I’m going to grow tomatoes, peppers, ginger and herbs in mine! I love your channel. I just found it and I’ve learned a great deal about vertical gardening. I’m limited in space, although my entire yard would be a garden of it were up to me. I’m looking forward to watching many more of your videos.
I started tomatoes from seedlings this year for the first time. I have them in solo cups just from watching your videos. I'm so excited about using your string method this year!! Those containers sure would come in handy here in Tennessee where I have a long tomato season! Love your videos! Keep on growing :)
Hey Brian - great job on the 4-stick tripod! Depending on the size of the pits, I’d use them for cucumber or tomatoes. Possibly ground cherries. I’ve grown cucumber in a 10gal pot before, and it was super productive! Kept it fertilized with the same mix and timing you use, and it worked great.
Never heard of air pruning. Makes perfect sense that fabric would deter the root bound growth. Thanks!
So enjoying both your channels! We also recently moved, but went from 1/3 acre (over 40 yrs) to small plot. Gophers are a huge issue here, so grow bags are my only option! Thanks for your tips, tricks, and humble honesty!
Also if you have gophers have you tried gopher Purge it's something you plant in the ground and it keeps the gophers away
This is my first year with a garden and there is so much to learn! I went too big for year one but with your help, and a few others, I’m keeping it going. I unfortunately bought black felt pots and I’m in Virginia. Sometimes we get plenty of rain and other seasons not enough so only time will tell.
OK, C ya
I’ve run out of room to grow tomatoes in the ground, so I appreciate the advice about growing in grow bags. The teepee trellis for an indeterminate tomato in a 20 gallon grow bag was especially enlightening. By the way, to answer your question of why one might use black grow bags - Seattle has cool summers, so black grow bags come in handy.
I started my tomatoes and jalapeños from seeds this year using Brian’s instruction videos. I will be transferring them into the 5 gallon grow bag as soon as the frost date passed. Thanks Brian! You are awesome instructor!! 👏🏽👍🏽
I love all your container videos. I live in NY in a small beach community. The house are so close, so we have a container garden on our roof. Watching your videos really helped our tomato growing last year. Not sure if you've done a cucumber container video, but would love to see one. ❤
Love your teepee rod upgrade, Brian! I used generic grow bags the last 2 years and my biggest complaint is how often my I needed to water (still haven’t installed a drip system!😢) I would love to try these grow bags.
Had never heard of air-pruning before, I always learn something new when from your videos!
A waterproof liner in a non-black fabric pot... genius!
I'm new to gardening and have lots of tomato plants growing in Solo cups, just like I learned from your videos 🙂
Looking forward to planting outside in pots as soon as it's warm enough outside for the tomatoes.
Would it sound selfish of me to admit that I'm hoping to win one of Grass Roots fabric pots?
BTW - Agree that non-organic tomatoes from the store are blah! I grew up not liking tomatoes until in recent years a friend handed me a fresh picked one from her garden. OMG! So that's what a tomato is supposed to taste like? No wonder I had never liked them before, but I love organic ones now and my toddler granson eats the cherry/grape sized ones by the handfulls, so I've got to grow lots of them.
Great growing guide. Very thorough!
I actually love that you have both channels, they compliment each other so well!
I’d love to try out those containers. I’m looking to plant a garden specifically for my 2 yr old granddaughter to work on. She loves helping her Pop-Pop in the garden, but in my garden I have some crops that she shouldn’t mess with, like hot peppers. So having her own container garden would be great.
Thanks for the amazing content!
I started container gardening last year without much luck, but now I’ve found this channel and am confident this year will be a success!
Hi, just watched your video on growing tomatoes in pots. I have been growing in pots with mixed results so I’m interested in the 20 gallon pots you used. The design makes perfect sense. Here in Alaska it is difficult to grow outside so I grow in a small greenhouse. Last year was tough as it stayed very cold but I did start getting red tomatoes in mid August. I’ll bet these pots would be good for potatoes as well. I learn something from every video. Thanks Dick Soldotna, AK
Your videos are always so helpful! I have a small property and was running out of garden space. I decided to try container gardening so these videos are perfect for this year!
I really like the way you did the tomato cages upside down and it fit perfectly in the bag and then the other one on top! I'm definitely going to try this out. Thanks so much for this video!
The upside down tomato cage was an absolute WOW moment for me! Loved it!
We really want the fabric pots to grow our tomatoes in. We have been trying to grow tomatoes in 5 gallon buckets for 3 years now without much success. After researching fabric pots, we can't wait to try them. We have been following you for a couple of years now and really, really appreciate all the wonderful teaching and help you give. Also, love all the links you provide. ❤️
Thank you. Big help.
Brian, thanks as always. Comparing this video with your previous ones for growing tomatoes in pots, I see some subtle changes. Last year, I used bamboo sticks on my indeterminates as a tripod. Four certainly makes sense and would be more stable. I also use a stake outside of the pot that is driven into the ground (my pots are on the ground) and zip tie it to my "cage." That really helped since we are subject to pretty intense winds here on the Navajo Nation.
With regards to organic potting soil, I have in the past used Black Gold. I like it, but I wonder if I need to use a more "plain" soil since I am going to be amending the soil according to your directions. In other words, since Black Gold has so many things added to it, is that overkill with what I am going to be adding? I fully admit that I may be over thinking things here a bit. Any input from you or the "family" here would be much appreciated!!
Looking forward to getting started! Our last average frost dates is May 23rd (6500 feet elevation) so I've got time to prepare! Thanks again for the help!
Hey Mark. Black gold is great. You could probably hold of starting to fertilize for several weeks. The black gold fert will eventually be used up or leach out though.
Have always grown most of my vegetables in pots since I live in a city and have very little land. Started watching your videos several months ago and have learned so much. Air pruning in fabric pots makes so much sense. Going to try them this year. Total revelation using the tomato cages watching this video! Thank you.
I use multiple 'potting' methods. My favorite is planting tomatoes in a 32 gal trash can. NO BENDING! Holds more water. I drilled multiple hols for drainage and air.
I think that when using Epsom salts you get too much magnesium buildup.
No one talks about the sulfur component of the Epsom salts.
I theorize that plants and microbes are consuming the sulfur and leaving most of the magnesium.
A simple bed sheet can work as a sun block/shade.
I took laundry baskets (dollar store ones).
Inverted one, covered with weed block, inverted the other and places it on top.
Then flip it over and trim the excess.
I just made a 7 gal air pruning pot.
I then take a clean, unused oil change pan, round one, and place that basket in it.
I just made a subirrigated air pruning pot. All for about $5.
I am using Fox Farms potting soil with chopped fall leaves mixed in.
I also add in some bone meal (1/4 cup), small handful of sulfur, and a spoonful of Azomite. I also mix in about 10% used coffee grounds and organic tomato fertilizer.
After a plant gets situated, I only water from below as needed.
I train them on cattle panel.
This works for Watermelons too but you need pantyhose to support the heavy melons on the panel.
That works with 5 gal buckets too (be sure of drainage).
I have several canvas grow bags. Yes they do dry out quickly.
So, I take a long neck GLASS wine bottle, fill with water, invert it, then shove it in the soil.
PLASTIC DOES NOT WORK FOR THIS.
Sun heats the bottle and forces water out. At night when it cools, the vacuum created draws air back in.
For inground, I use a 5 gal plastic refillable water bottle, the EXPENSIVE kind you pay to refill for a dispenser.
I toss in 2 orange ping pong balls, fill with water, invert, and shove int he ground about 12" away from the tomato plant.
I can also mix in water soluble fertilizer if needed.
Reason for the orange ping pong balls is that 1: much easier to see water level from a distance, 2 less algae issues.
This year I am trying a custom made sub irrigation planter. No idea how well that will work.
People might want to look up garden Ollas. Those can help with some plants but not thirsty ones.
Fun fact: crawling insects usually cannot swim.
Most flying insects will not cross open water.
Epsom Salts deter Raccoons. Bothers their lungs from what I hear.
Coffee grounds can help deter cats.
I shiny pinwheel can deter birds from pecking or eating your produce (strawberries in particular).
I appreciate these videos! I'm a newbie gardener and I'd love to grow MORE tomatoes than the 4 grow bags I have. So much to learn, so few hours in a day! Thanks, Brian.
I Will use a fabric container to restart container gardening after a 10 year hiatus, I just had trees taken down on the back of the yard and will have some sunlight that I have not had for 10 years. I just like to see veggies grow, it's like magic!
This will be my 2nd season planting cherry tomatoes in containers! Would love to try out these fabric pots! 🙂 hope it wasn’t too much of a pain to re-do all this footage!
I doubt you will see this…. I seldom comment for that reason-And this video is a year old-but what the heck‼
Just found your TH-cam videos today- Your videos are great ‼🤗 I’m mostly confined to “pot-gardening”(lol) , and GREATLY APPRECIATE your tips ‼VERY HELPFUL‼ I’m 70yo. ,- Sooo… the days of the larger garden have passed me-- but I still love to have some things growing in pots in my backyard and patio area . I just don’t have lots of space !! I will definitely be on the lookout for the FABRIC POTS you showed in this video ‼ I know from experience that you have to work your butt off… to make these videos to share with us !! I just thought I’d let you know, I, for one, appreciate your time and effort and wanted to THANK YOU FOR THEM ‼ I have already subscribed and will look for your past videos and…, look forward to your new ones .
Thanks again and God bless you and yours‼Richard
Sure he gets notified anytime someone posts. Too bad you didn’t get a like from him especially after all your effort and gratitude

Have a great weekend 🤗‼ Richard
I’m so happy I found your channel! I started seedlings and have bought tomato and pepper plants at the Farmers market to start a container garden on our apartment patio. I have learned so much watching your videos, and these containers would be perfect with the all day sun exposure that we receive. I am honestly shocked ( newbie here) by how there’s sooo much more to container gardening than sticking plants in a pot or container filled with potting soil and watering them!! Thank you for helping us new gardeners hopefully have a successful crop come the end of summer ❣️I am so very excited to do this !!
My 88 year old mom is asking for her tomatoes to be in containers on her patio so she can care for them easier. Loved this video it will help to make sure mom is successful growing container tomatoes.
I would definitely grow my tomatoes in these lined bags! Love the support you made as well. Thanks for all your advice Brian!
I am new to vegetable gardening and your advice has been so helpful. My yard is small and I've been wondering about trying to go to using some containers so this video's time has been perfect for me. Thanks
I shared this with my sister in law. She’s an avid gardener and I am sharing the great things I find. I love your advice.
Thank you
I cannot walk out to my husbands raised beds in the back of our yard, due to a knee injury. I tore my meniscus and the ACL. My surgery is next week. I am anticipating a long recovery. So, I got a tomato plant last week and put it in a pot on the deck, but after watching your video, I see now that the pot is not the right size and I need to replace it. I would love to be the one to win a 20 gallon fabric container to enable me to get plenty of the delicious cherry tomatoes that I just pick and eat from the vine. I also use them in all sorts of recipes. Having only one plant in the Grassroots 20 gallon container just outside my kitchen door would be the best blessing ever. Thanks, happy gardening!
I’m new to gardening and container gardening and would love some of these containers to start my journey growing tomatoes for the first time and even some herbs. These pots would be perfect for growing at an apartment complex along our driveway! I’ve been watching your videos, absorbing as much info as I can. Thank you for all you do!
I am legally blind, and I love your container videos. I think this will be a perfect way for me to get started in gardening. Thank you so much for all that you do.
Glad you like them!
Hi there and thank you for the great video and well explained.
There is a part that I need to double check with you. It the part that I put the tomato plant on the 1/3 of the new bucket, do I have to still add the 4 ingredients as I top the potting soil and compost every week or so until I reach the 2 inch below the top of the 5 gallon pot.
ingredients below:
Gypsum - half of handful
Epsom Salt - half of handful (careful with this not to exceed and can be not good. Use only one time)
kelp meal - half of handful
crab and lobster - half of handful
Thank you again!
I get my large pots from the recycling center, old cattle supplement tubs. Clean them out and that's the best I've found. Potatoes, peppers, tomatoes, and onions have worked amazing for us. Love the channel!
I live in the Florida panhandle 3 blocks from the beach my yard is sand. So I decided to try some grow pots, before I started educating myself I bought some cheap ones they were black and didn’t look like they would make more then 1 season. After I watched your video and it was spot on I totally get the benefit of the liner. It’s a daily scorcher here and the liner makes perfect sense! So I immediately went and ordered the Grassroots pots. First mistake averted ….thanks for the tip , love your vids
Thank you. Your vids are always so helpful for me. My sister gave me a couple of smaller fabric pots last yr, and my lettuce grew nicely in them. The black ones do dry out pretty fast, so have to keep an eye on em. I would definitely use your fabric pots for my tomatoes, and will use your flipped cage method for the cherry ones! 😊
I love hearing you as a young person so enthusiastic about gardening. I am 69 and keep posting
I watched your videos last year to help get me started in growing veggies in containers. You told me about sun gold tomatoes and, boy, those were the best tomatoes. We are in PA and picked our last sun gold in November, believe it or not! This year I plan to grow in containers again. Looking forward to learning from you again this year!
Great way to expand my garden with containers. I really appreciate the way you teach and explain. Yours is my favorite gardening source. I also learned a lot from your companion planting book. Good job!
This is such helpful information for new gardeners like myself. I have started tomato seedlings using my own potting soil. It's really great that you did a video on container gardening for tomatoes. You explain so clearly and concisely on how to grow tomatoes in containers, specifically the fabric pot type. The tips on the types of tomatoes, determinate or indeterminate and how to trellis, based on that type of tomato, as well as the watering and fertilizing information you provided are fantastic! I started with zero knowledge about gardening and I feel compelled to keep learning as much as I can about gardening. I have learned so much from watching your channel in general. I am so excited to see the transformation from seed to harvest when that time comes that I actually grew something my family can enjoy. I have a small space so container gardening is my best option. Thanks for all your efforts and videos; it is very much appreciated.
I'd love to use these fabric pots in nooks and crannies in my backyard! They are earth friendly, reusable and would fit nicely in anyone's yard.
im so glad I found you on TH-cam, im in NY and I started gardening two years ago, i don’t have much room in my backyard that's why im doing the pot containers, bought some on amazon now I see the ones you have and I like them better. thank you
😃
This will be my first time planting .my tomatoes in a container. I have chosen to plant indeterminate tomatoes. We live in Michigan. We usually plant Memorial weekend and grow thru September. Thank you for sharing your knowledge
I already have tomatoes growing and I can't wait to pick my first one! Next year I plan on growing multiple varieties. I love trying new things so I would love to try the grow bags with my tomatoes! Thank you again for the wonderful videos!
Glad I found you. My garden adventures have evolved over the years, but I am learning more from you than I have learned in the past. I love fabric pots, but never had luck with tomatoes. So excited to learn more about these pots. I am hoping to have tomatoes, cucumber and some peppers in pots this year. Also starting Ginger and Turmeric right now. The remainder of my garden will probably be Basil, Thyme and Oregano.
New sub here in Australia. Was just looking for some tomato tips and was pleased to find your channel. Straight forward down to earth organic gardening. Bring on the binge watching 😉 Cheers mate👍
Hey! Welcome!
I love the idea of growing tomatoes in a grow bag. I happen to have extra tall bamboo stakes that I could use. Thanks for sharing your ideas. You make us all better gardeners.
I have always wanted to learn how to grow pot tomato, been 73 yrs old garden in the grown is not that easy so I really did enjoy your video's on how to grow this canvas pots, It to late for me to win cuz its already August here in Texas but if all goes well my grandson is taking me to live with him to Denver,Colorado in Oct.by the way my BDay is the 5th, I'm looking forward to moving with him,I will really need something to keep me busy,
I use cloth pots for almost everything I grow always have had problems with tomatoes. This info has been a Godsend thanks so much.
This is my first year of growing my tomatoes from seed you have been a great help. Next new thing is using pots for my tomatoes and you again have been a great help. Thank you so much!
This is awesome, detailed info. As always, thanks so much Brian❣️ I really appreciate all the great tips. They always help me to improve and expand my garden. I use fabric pots to grow garbanzos, greens and tomatoes, so far. Being vegetarian I’m looking forward to growing many other veggies in the fabric pots. 🥰 May God continue to bless you and your family as you share your much needed talents with others like me. 😁 I live in PA so I probably would need to use the regular fabric pots.
I've been using regular black fabric pots and I'm not happy with them at all. It makes total sense to waterproof the sides and to have a much lighter color. Love the support portion of your video, Brian. Thank you.
Its funny, I'm in the PNW, and fabric pots being black is great. Considering lifers know summer doest start until July 5th lol.
You’ve Really inspired me to try gardening again!! We tilled half our yard several years ago and it was a Crazy Organic Mess!!! I Love the idea of a patio container garden and I’m doing it!! Thank you so much for inspiring people like me who had given up!! Yes I’d love to try the soft container fabric pots!
I’ve been growing my tomatoes for years in big recycle bins…I’d love to try them in one of these fabric bags to compare how they perform…thanks for all your videos! 👍🏻👍🏻
I wish I’d known about these pots! I’d love to have some. I’d use them for some tomatoes, peppers, or possibly something else! Love the little band of just fabric at the bottom. Thanks for all of the super helpful info!
Get video full of instructions on how to grow tomatoes in containers. Very helpful!
I’d love to give a fabric container to my mom all set up and ready to go for Mother’s Day! Keep up the great videos 🙂
This is my first garden this year. I’m so excited cause I find your videos very interesting and informative! Planning on growing in the bags.
I would be growing everything in those bags! I wish I hadn’t just invested so much in raised beds this year. But I will definitely be ordering a few!💕
I've never seen the tomato cages doubled up like that before. Cool trick. I'd probably try out eggplants in the grow bag if I got one. I haven't had much luck with those in the regular grow bags yet. I'd be interested to see if the liner helps or not.
I would appreciate the opportunity to successfully grow and harvest my tomatoes that I will plant from my own seed-saving adventures this year. Thank you
Only one thing missing from this video is a 4th type which are perfect for pots, dwarfs! There’s approximately 150 varieties in the Dwarf Tomato Project, and they grow to around 3 feet but give you tomatoes of all sizes and colours and tastes like heirloom varieties. Unlike determinates they will also produce tomatoes right up until frost 😃
I recently came across your totally A-W-E-S-O-M-E videos and just CANNOT GET ENOUGH of them!!! I just might be your newest Super Fan!!! 😊
I have had my plants evaluated to find that because of you, they are the healthiest they can be. I'm so impressed!!!!
Thank you!
I have a bunch of bags of garden soil if I mix in Pete Moss, would that be OK for buckets?
Hi, I am a beginner gardener. I have watched and subscribed to many gardening TH-cam sponsors to get the best tips on gardening. I have learned a lot from your reel. Thank you for explaining how to trellis and which tomato plants to prune. This will help me a great deal! You are thorough and not wordy in your instructions. 😊
I would love to grow tomatoes in the cloth with the lining. I live in a hot, dry climate and cannot water 2-3 times each day (while I’m at work). This could make a big difference!
This is my first attempt at growing my own tomatoes!
I have started so many tomato seed this year, I got carried away, I'm really over run, but I want every one of them to succeed. I will be planting tomatoes everywhere I can. These pots seam like a great thing and I am excited to try them. I love your videos and learn so much from them. Thanks for all the great into and helping everyone to be successful.
After recent back surgery, these pots and your trellising ideas will be the perfect answer to help keep me gardening this year! Thank you for another amazing video!
This video is so informative especially with new gardeners.
I love the way you explain everything that should and should not be done.
My husband and I watch them and have learned so much about what is important to keep the plants healthy, especially what to watch for specific problems.
Thank you so much for sharing all your knowledge and experience.❤
I have a neighbor who passes by on her summer walks, compliments my garden, we chat, I pick a few tomatoes to give her, and she remarks that she doesn't have a 'green thumb'. Next time, I would love to give her one of those grow bags planted with a Patio tomato and a Baby Boomer, cherry tomato plant and tell her, "All you need to do is add water!". Of course I would drive her back home with it.😊
Great video and perfect timing! I have never used a grow bag before and look forward to giving it a shot this season with some tomato's and carrots. Thanks!
