@@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy Hello beautiful folks. Robbie. I have a important question. I love feeding the only few humming birds I have here sadly I get HUNDREDS of bees at my feeders and it’s just making things terrible for my birds. Please tell me what feeder to use that you like the most. I will be forever thankful. Sincerely. Judy.
I LOVE IT!!!
Thank you so much!!!
God Bless You both!!!!
You know, I never comment. I've been watching you for years. You've given me more projects that I want to do than I have life left. 😂 I'm 65 and had arthritis and back injuries from back in my 40's. Gardening has always been my way of staying sane, so when I wasn't physically able to do what gardening requires, I had no outlet. I was depressed. When I found TH-cam and then you I was ecstatic. You didn't just tell me I could garden, you showed me that not only could I garden but it could become a work of art. The placement, colors, sizes and shapes of containers and toll covers are endless. Not only can we garden, we can create art; seasonally. There really isn't any way for me to thank you. But I hope that you know in your tired moments that you have made a difference in my life, in many lives. I wish many blessings for you and yours.
I love this video! You’ve convinced me that I can do this , so I will! I’m 77 years old with chronic sciatica ( I licked it !) & love to garden… you’ve made it possible…. With your vibrant encouragement!! Mahalo Nui Loa Robin! -Auntie Lesley
Robbie is a National Treasure! Your comment is making my heart swell ❤
Let me tell you miss Robbie, I live with my granddaughter in Georgia and she throw away everything and I go back and collect it pitchers ,pots,empty bottles she ask me why am I collecting trash I tell her Robbie has great ideas and I'm making what she makes for her garden and birds Made the solar fountains and chair garden compost in place whatever I see I have room for and Gary got me interested in bananas I have four plants lol I'm hooked and I just crave all your fantastic ideas .we senior adults need to keep busy doing things we like we can't always think of ideas ourselves but we have you to show us Thanks for sharing your gifts.with us all have a wonderful day and don't forget to eat what you grow
I used to collect bags of grass my neighbors put out to be picked up by the city and when I let my chicken flock go to my daughter, I stopped gardening and composting as I went on the road for five months with my husband and didn't start again when I came home. Today I was in the back yard and opened 7 huge bags I'd collected and never put on my compost pile! The grass had mostly broken down anyway and is full of earth worms! Each bag had compacted to almost nothing and was dirty and some had holes poked through in places. Every single bag managed to have moisture, decomposition and earth worms! Depending on how well the plastic bag had been treated as it was filled, picked up, and hauled to my house (ie, how many holes it got) I think is how well the grassy contents broke down. The contents from bag to bag varied in color and decomposition but boy am I happy to know it's full of life! I'll be putting a scoop of that rich goodness into my totes very soon!
You’ve got gold. Perfect, how wonderful. 😊❤
A peach that grew out of my compost pitcher 3 years ago is setting fruit for the first time. It works!
Sounds wonderful, how great 😊
That's so fun!!
Wow that's amazing how cool!
Oh, I've saved seeds a couple of times from spaghetti squash this winter. I also buried seeds, membrane and the outer skin in my totes several times. Today I noticed I have spaghetti squash growing in that tote! They're between 4-6 inches tall and are doing great!
Sounds great! And you know what else it tells you it may be time to start growing some seeds now😊❤
Hi from Queensland Australia. I just absolutely love you! You are amazing. You make things seem so much easier to understand than anyone else and say it as it is. Love the way you also show the wild life. I wish I was there in real life. I felt like giving up gardening, but you have been such an encouragement.
G'day, great to see a fellow Aussie who follows these 2, i haven't started my vege garden yet, but soon. I love how we gravitate to an OS person, when there are plenty of Aussie gardeners who are in our time zone and weather ect haha
OMG, do not give up gardening, there are so many videos out there now that are giving mis- information, some of it’s done accidentally and some of it is done on purpose. There’s also a lot of videos telling people all the things they have to buy and it’s just not necessary so I hope to continue to help for people that don’t want to buy and really don’t need to. Thanks so much and happy gardening ❤
Another one here. Queensland trying to grow... My birds eat a LOT. 😂
Yes Robbie, it works wonders! I use the free recycled 1 gal pots I get from my local nursery with a piece of cardboard to cover it. The worms and plants love it!
Sounds great! So happy it worked great for you, thanks 😊
What about roses , perennials and shrubs, can it work for them since I don't have any veggies till spring?
Hi Robbie, love your channel. My ex-husband has become the hummingbird whisperer, thanks to you. 😊
I use the plant containers I have laying around. Personally, I use composting worms, but I’m also in Southern California, even through this cold spell, they have thrived. I had already been raising composting worms, so I’m not suggesting for people to buy them however, they multiply like crazy!Yes the worms will definitely come but those composting worms. Back to my point, I submerge the planter into the ground or raised bed. I put veggie scraps newspaper I can even dump my vacuum cleaning dust in there. Then, I put another pot on top with something growing in it. Reuse, recycle. It works great!
Oh that sounds great. Thanks so much for sharing. 😊
I have been trying to find a free way to have a worm farm and you’ve done it! Thank you so much for this information!
Today, I drilled holes in some totes. Put some shredded paper in the bottom. It is still too early to do much more in zone 6. I just pray my procedure (heart) doesn't take more than 3-4 weeks of recovery. This season, I will only be able to do a little. However, thanks to you, I have learned to garden much simpler. Have a wonderful weekend.
Go slow and take your time. Like you said it’s still too early. And if you can get some thing in the center of your tote, like a pitcher or food container and put matter in there, you’ll be able to grow a lot of different things in a single tote or two, take care be well.❤❤❤❤❤❤
@@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy thank you.
That adorable little Kitty!💙🌻
Thank you! 😊
OMG this is an amazing idea.its almost midnight here whilst im watching this but i immediately ran to my recycling bin and took out all of the 2l empty milk and pepsi bottles . Ive cut them in half and made 1 inch cuts around the edges so theyll slot back together together. And now im filling them with food scraps already. Its amazing. I will just be able to unscrew the lid to add water. AND ITS FREE!!! Thank you so much for this video
Have fun! Food containers like that are perfect. I used them too, have fun. ❤
Just stopping by to thank you for holding my hand this last year... my first year growing vegetables and container gardening. You're in Cali and I'm in Florida, both of us zone 10. You're thriftiness, your ideas, your constant encouragement, your laid-back, joyful, humourous disposition really helped a lot. Now friends are looking at me for advice (as if I know anything, lol). I tell everyone I know about this awesome lady named Robbie in California. You showed me many plants, like tomatoes keep on growing when everyone else was pulling them out. Well, yours are growing, mine are growing and in the last couple of weeks they have started blooming profusely again. I've had tomatoes all year long. I love growing in storage containers on a chair now, so much more room. I put a garden pot in like you teach, feed it scraps and put a pot of zinnias inside it. The cucumber, beans and radishes are doing well. You're the best Robbie. Have a blessed week.
Looking forward and planning for spring 😊
We are too, lots in our Mini Green House totes, doing GREAT!
Thank you for your ideas, that doesn't cost $$a ton and is very practical .
You are one Smart, lovely lady who have a way to encourage a lazy or know nothing about gardening to garden, God bless you.
So down to earth, excuse the pun, and practical. You make it all possible for anyone. We can do what we thought we couldn't afford.
So Affordable, and I think they work better ❤️
I'm not sure where you seen them for $50, everywhere I've seen them the cheapest I have seen is $163. Crazy when it's aplastic square with holes in it. I've been looking to see how to make one myself and now you have shown me. TYVM. YOUR AWESOME.
You are very, very brilliant common sense so many people don’t have it. Thank you for sharing this implemented immediately cheers Florida.😎
Kitty looks so cute in her little sweater
Thanks 😊
You are amazing I listen to you. Since I had some empty gallon juice bottles I followed your instructions and made them my worm farm. Thanks so much
Wonderful! Thank you ❤😊
Definitely gonna try this soon as I start to refresh my totes for spring, genius idea! God bless you and your family 😊
Have fun! Works great thank you. I think you’ll love it.❤
@RobbieAndGary : I'm going to try this using half gallon milk and fruit drink containers !!!! Not the plastic ones , the card boardy ones !!!!
You can use milk cartons they will get a little moldy and break down eventually but if you’re growing season is short it won’t matter you can dump all that compost matter all out later and throw it in the trash, I’m looking for something that will be more stable can last for years and easy to just lift the top, drop and stuff in and close it and no rodents or anything will get in there go for it. You can use plastic food containers too. Happy garden. ❤
Sooo good...THANK YOU 😊
such great tips especially in this economy. and i love these tips can be applied to apartment gardeners
You Rock. Great Idea.
You're the best! Every time I watch one of your videos I have to tell you :) I am going to do one or two hydroponic plants this year but I'm going back to composting in place even thought we moved back to an apartment. I can't wait to get it setup in the next couple weeks. I have it designed perfectly in my head. Of course I have to hide the containers since the apartment complex will complain about the plastic containers so we're going to make faux wooden planters :) I'm going to get some of the things from my local buy nothing group and I've been saving all my cottage cheese and yogurt containers to start my seeds this week! I'm so excited!!
I’ve done this since I watched ur first video on it. I have two king garden beds (2 x10ft and 3 x8ft). I put one container on each end. I’m grateful for u/ur channel. U make gardening simple and accessible. Thank you
Thank you for the video
I love your videos. 💚 Thank you.
I made a worm nursery! They are turning the kitchen scraps & junk mail to black gold so quickly! I keep adding scraps every 3-4 days.
Beautiful perfect ❤😊❤
Great video..Thank you. I just subscribed too 😁👍
I started one yesterday! Can't wait to plant!
Wonderful! Thank you ❤
God bless you Robbie, praying for you and Kitty.
GREAT WISDOM AND ADVICE 👏👏👏👏❤️
One of the best ideas you've had! Brilliant! Thank you so much!
Robbie you are so awesome
Omg your dog at the end of the video is absolutely precious. Thanks for the info!
I just love you two. Yall are so sweet and precious to share your life and knowledge with all of us. Much ❤️ from Nashville
I love this idea and made a pitcher worm bin/composter for each of my 4’x4’ raised beds and planted them this morning. Such a great idea - thanks for sharing! I am excited to see the results.
Love the video. Worms will break down soil. They can eat peat aswell. Not sure about miracle grow soil but worms are really amazing I’m sure they could. Also wanted to add that a good potting mix will have microbes in it! Fox farms etc
Thank you what you do makes it so simple and saves a lot of money. I also like the hummingbirds we have them in the summer also and I love them. You have a great day and God bless.
Love love love. I might have to do this still since we moved from the city to the country but now we have a ton of rocks!!
like your idea to composting hsppy gardening stay safe and healthy
Thank you so much for the information. I went to the dollar tree and got some pitchers. I can't wait to start composting using this method.
Love this idea, Robbie!
Thanks so much!
Ty Robbie and Gary:). Always great ideas. Living in nys we have to wait till May to plant outside. Cant wait to see the hummingbird come back. God bless you guys
So you still have a little time to start your seeds unless you have a place to keep things them growing with a grow light. You can start tomatoes soon and put them in a window or someplace fairly light on squash. I think I would wait another month on them. They’ll just get leggy. ❤😊 Thank you
Thanks Robbie, my daughter and I are container gardening on the patio this Spring&Summer, we have planted seeds in plastic cups, some have already come up. I love to compost and going to try this.
Thank you for sharing this information with us. I love your videos.
You are most welcome, Thank You!
This is brilliant! So simple yet effective. It is easy to fall into a trap of overthinking things. Thank you for sharing so many great ideas.
I love my pitchers thanks to u last year when u talked about them!. Glad u mentioned aphids and stuff
That's one of things that always worries me with using my own garden leaves and stuff as compose in place is stuff that has the white powdery mold or bugs like aphids. I just worry it'll speed to everything lol 😆 I'm in WA so everything goes to mold fast if given the opportunity. Anyway thanks for the great vid!🥰
I use the half gallon milk jugs it works fine for me. I got the idea from you but I wanted to do it a recycle ♻️ kind a way . Love your channel I started out container garden 6 years ago and I loved it . 🙏
I will definitely do this! I have a barrel composter that I love, but I filled it so quickly, and now I have nowhere to put my compostables. This will solve the problem
Perfect 😊
I have a raised bed & will try your idea of composting in a pitcher. I put holes all over with my trusty soldering iron (thanks to you). Composting is the bomb! Show us Kitty whenever you can. She’s precious! Have a nice day & thanks for your information! Love it!!!! 4:06
I love your content. Always a new idea. I tried the pitchers but have the screw on tops. Decided to ditch the tops and put 1 gallon pots into the top of the pitchers instead. They fit perfectly. When I water the plant the pitcher gets watered. It's a win win since I'm trying to find room for more pots of flowers. Thanks for all the great ideas!
Hi Robbie, love your videos and passion! I've been using one of your methods for a few years now and really love it:) I currently have 4 large planters set up with a small 10" or so "feeding" pot nestled into the soil top. On top of the feeding pots rests another pot that is wide and shallowish and filled with soil and small plants.I add my kitchen/garden scraps and fallen leaves to the feeding pot regularly to feed my worms and it gets watered via watering the top pot plants. I'm in the mid-Atlantic region so I start this up every spring by adding a chunk of ground soil to my middle pot with whatever worms and microbes are in it, and any critters that are surviving in my large pot can migrate back into their feeding area. Works great!
Robbie, you are the coolest! Thank you for another wonderful tip.
My pleasure! Thank you so much 😊
Thank you I am definitely going to do this
Work fantastic 😊 Thank you
Thank You for the the tips and tricks
You bet! Thank you 😊
THIS WAS GREAT. EXCELLENT PURPOSE, EASE OF USE. DOLLAR TREE IS NOW ON MY LIST. I ALSO LIKE FILLING IT IN THE KITCHEN INSTEAD OF A PLASTIC BAG.
A REAL WINNER! HOPE YOUR PLANTS RECOVER.
MUCH LOVE! 😏💕
You are so welcome! Whatever don’t they’ll turn in the soil or end up in a pitcher😊
Great tip! Thank you. 👍🏻💫❣️
You are so welcome!❤
Hello Robbie and Gary. Love y'all. God bless.
Thank you so much❤
You truly are amazing!! I love ❤️ your personality & your videos!!! 🙌🏻🦋🙌🏻
Thank you so much!!❤
I love the idea of doing this in each plant container. I have four food grade 5 gallon buckets buried in my raised beds. They are absolutely full of worms that come and go into my veggie garden. I fill the buckets with leaves, manure, food scraps and garden trimmings.
~ Sandra
The best, comprehensive video you've done. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you so much❤️
Such a great idea~ Awesome~👍

Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you so very much ❤️
I have two worm towers that I did pay for 2 years ago. They are amazing. I live where there is an HOA so can't have compost piles. They don't even know they are there but the worms and plants do.
hi robbie 🤗
thanks for sharing more great ideas.
i have compost pitchers in all of my raised beds and large cups with lids in my containers h buckets. they all work great.
i also made a couple compost trash cans with spickets to get liquid gold whenever i want to give my plants an instant boost.
Sounds great! ❤😊❤
I literally love you. Lol
OMG 😊 Thank you❤️
Do you have to bring in earth worms from somewhere? Thanks so much for all your tips! 😊🇨🇦
Nice
Thanks
Thia is a neat idea check it out
thanks you chia sẻ hay quá you
You are so welcome 😊 Thank you ❤️
I put 4 of these in my in ground garden today.. I hope it works the same
I started this last year works great. I have to empty mine out this year.
That's great! And remember when you empty them from last year, that’s still gold in there, or maybe silver LOL, use it in your containers ❤😊
Love my mini worm farms...thanks to you. Your chickens had something to say too! I thought mine were making a rucus as i watched your video! Haha Haha Hope we get to meet yours some day.
How funny, Yeah, the chickens have a lot to say lately. Everything sounds great there, happy gardening ❤
I work at a preschool so after lunch once a week I collect all the left over mixed salads and banana peels and cantaloupe peels. Even during outside play time I have my class collect brown leaves. During the weekend my son and I go walking collecting brown leaves.these last month all my composting in my place have broken down. Just you said Robbie I made my own free soil. Today I composted in one of my big containers with kitchen scraps and mixed salads and brown leaves along with made a container for compost tea
this is an awesome video. i just subbed. i have about ten 4'x8' raised garden beds. do you think maybe a couple of those pitchers at either edge of each bed would work? thanks for the content. about to watch more.
Hi Robbie - I do this!! I use empty Metamucil jugs, and the 4" clay drain dishes fit nicely as a lid, and the heavier weight of that helps keep them from blowing away in high wind. I save the trimmings from cabbage, etc. for them, and we have a paper shredder and I save the shreds, along with cut up cardboard rolls from toilet paper and paper towels, to top off the veggie scraps in the jugs. :-)
Hi robbie, just found your channel and have been binge watching.. just mind blown! I have a question, I live in Alberta and just now have a yard and trying to learn to garden. How do I take care of/ preserve my compost and continue to accumulate my own made compost in the winter months? Or is that even possible? Thanks so much for all your videos! ❤
This is just another great idea Robbie!!!!! I think you're always on time with these great ideas, I just came in from the garden thinking about ways to get more earthworms.
Perfect! This will do it! ❤😊
I love the easy Composter, I have two 4-foot x4-foot gardens and some containers, I just need a couple of small Composters.
That would be perfect ❤️
How about 1 composter at each end of your bed & 1 at the center, all lined up in a row radiating compost tea in all directions, feeding the entire 4 foot garden bed?😊
I love it! Should I add worms to the container as well? Thanks so much!
If you find some sure 😊
Robbie, where did the earth worms come from? Do they come from the few that you put into the bucket as you were building the bucket or do you put one in the pitcher?
Thank you for this! How much water do you put in the pitcher?
Thank you, thank you! To me, it seems pointless to spend a boatload of money on a garden… I love your ideas so much! One question if it's a raised bed that's enclosed. where do the worms come from?
I've had a proper Indoor worm bin and it was fab. Since then, ( lost worms to a hurricane after putting them in my greenhouse which got smashed and flooded) I've not been able to sustain even a small population without catastrophe. Usually it's a fly infestation and going sour. I'd given up. But I may try again if my Mum will forgive a third request for worms. My biggest complaint, the flies taking over, would be minimized by the plastic barrier and lid. No matter how deeply I froze scraps, or buried , the flies would take over. I think moving the operation outdoors directly to the plants potting space will be nice.
I will be doing both Kratky Passive Hydroponics and traditional soil ( trying to enhance some old compost ) so free fertilizer without the headache of open composting sounds grand.
❤
I feel like it is better use the coffee containers or nursery buckets containers or big yogurt containers for free
I'M SHOWING MY HUSBAND. THIS IS JUST IN TIME ROBBIE. AWESOME OUR SEEDS HAVE COME UP 😀 WE JUST DON'T KNOW WHAT ALL WE ARE SUPPOSED TO START NOW.
We’re starting some spring plants now like, tomatoes and peppers. I planted some broccoli already. I’m gonna wait on the watermelon, and just starting some squash like zucchini right now. ❤
