How to grow a tomato plant for tons of tomatoes
I have been trying to grow a container garden for the past two years. I’ve been trying several different gurus with little or no success. I find whenever I use your suggestions they work. I now use tulle to keep birds and bugs out. I compost like mad. I grow things together and use water from one plant to another. I am doing one thing different. My daughter’s boyfriend discovered I was having trouble bending over to dig as I am 89 and had both hips replaced and one knee so far. He got several used pallets and built me a huge low platform which holds 15 18 gallon totes off the ground and a smaller platform for another 10 totes. The totes are now waist high and I love working out in my garden.
i think maybe pansies need cold stratification
I am growing potatoes in containers for the first time. I am waiting. I planted lettuce on top. Trying peas for the first time also. Keeping fingers crossed.
Great! Gary just harvested potatoes today, they were small, 'new potatoes' and GREAT in Flavor! Happy Gardening!
Hi, Pat be very careful to not eat anything of a potato plant other than the potatoes. Leaves and stems are poisonous to eat. When the potato plant starts to grow above ground more and more it will likely block all the sun for the lettuce. You may wish to transplant the lettuce to another container. You’ll see what works for you. Growing food is as fun as Robbie shows us. We just have to learn by doing. Good luck!
@@shelleynobleart thank you for the advice but I know not to eat anything else of the potato and not to eat any green potato. Thanks again and happy gardening to you
Good ideas. This year, I used old cake pans and rusted cookie sheets and put seed packs on them. Put some down in plastic meat trays and plastic drawers from organizers our seed trays were breaking apart and leaking so we used that. Happy gardening to all.
Thanks to you I have too many seeds growing now. I kept trying what you said and it worked. Now I'm searching for more pots, tubs, and anything I can put a plant in.
I don't know HOW you keep track of everything. It's amazing how many plants you already have growing outside. And then you're starting hundreds more indoors. Yet, you KNOW where they are all located. Even if I wrote what the plant/seedling is on label, I would still have to hunt around and read all of the labels to find the plant I wanted. You, on the other hand, know each one. Just like they are your children. I bet that Ms Kitty would be so jealous of your "green kids" if you didn't bribe her with broccoli. Ha I LOVE that precious bowwowbaby!
That's a lot of great seedlings, great information Robbie, thank you for sharing.
So many types there is bound to be some you will like to use, Enjoy, thanks
Robbie, you share the best tips and ideas to make planting doable. Because of you, I might actually try planting some things from seeds this year! Best of all, I can use containers and other items I already have in my home.
Thank you for sharing this information with us.
You are SO welcome, Thank you
Wow the aluminium foil trick is fantastic. After my mum passed I found about 10 rolls of foil. My sister and I shared them out but I still have heap’s because it’s not something I like to use. This is great and you can keep and reuse each year
This is my #1 channel for learning how to grow out of anything and for little to no money! After a rough two years of little to no harvests here in SC..Today I sowed some veggie and flower seeds..Kale, Cilantro,Spinach,Bush Beans,Turnips,Chili Peppers,Lettuce,Blue Buttons,Pansies and Lavander.I'm trying out the Dollar Tree stackable planter🤞🤞..My raised bed seedlings are not doing well..Im not sure what the issue is..They are all leggy and stunting in growth.
Thank you for sharing all these great ideas. Because of you, I did my first vegetable garden in containers last year. I really enjoyed it, and this year I'll be planting garden beds. You make it so easy and fun and I am grateful for the confidence I gained by watching your videos! Thank you!! 😍🥰
How do you feel about jiffy pots and heating mats?
Jiffy pots would be mostly the cost, not an expense we need to do, and heating mats are okay, we have 2 small ones good for starting some seeds.
I love your creativity! I would not have thought to put the tape on the lid and container. If I start seeds in a clear container that has a gray lid and put it outside on my covered porch, should I put the lid on it? The end of the porch that I would put it on gets about 5 hours of morning sun. Thank you for another awesome and helpful video!
I see your hummingbirds .. We had 1 come back so far and put the water out for her .. Do you ever grow loofa ? Would love you to do a video on them ..I finally got some seeds from a lady in Florida .. I’m in NC .. Not sure when to plant them
I think I am starting to get info overload. I have too many gardeners saying what's best for them but they have really nice beds and growing rooms and heat mats and they use vermiculite and bone meal and blah blah blah. I just want simple ideas and then hope for the best. I really like your ideas on gardening and enjoy 6ou and kitty with your videos. Thank you again sorry for the long comment
Robbie, I LOVE watching ther many ideas you share mostly because you repurpose common household items....keeping them out of the landfills longer. Also thanks to you I've found cheaper ways of accomplishing things. I now own a bolt of tulle, a bag of clay kitty litter(no cat), and great solar fountains! Thank you for VALUABLE , useful, ingenious information
I like the idea of starting seeds all year its hard to do everything all at once
Nice one, Robbie and Kitty! I like that tip on reflecting light to aid the seedlings. 😃
Thank you for sharing! I love all these ideas! Especially the foil trick for limited light coming into the house! I love to repurpose too so all of the container ideas are great. Oh that tulle idea is genius too! 🌱
Yes I love using tulle with seedlings, ❤️ Thank you!
You are just a genius 👍
I started some peppers and flowers today, but for the next batch I will try the tulle!
Hung my first hummingbird feeder, they should be around soon!
Pansies are tricky!!!
Growing from seeds indoors….this is how I have experienced:
I did every step right and diligently. Yet, the results were mediocre. Poor germination rate, leggy seedlings, seedling died for no reason, you name it.
When I did not have much hope just threw seeds outdoors. They all came out (90-100% germination rate) and were healthy seedling.
Is Mother Nature playing tricks with me?
The trick to making holes on the bottom of the small paper Dixie cups? stack 10 of them turn them upside down, sharpen a wooden chopstick with a razor knife and puncture them, becareful though.
I love your channel and I am trying some of your composting. Trying to watch all your videos!!!
I started seeds with paper towels. Forgot about the seed roots intertwining with the paper towels. Sometimes the seeds are too close together. I couldn't lift the seedling without breaking off the root that grew through the paper towel. So i decided to plant the whole paper towel . And decided when they got strong enough for me to space them out. Some worked and some didn't. Learned that the seeds need a be spaced out on the towel...then i can cut/tear each seedling and plant where it has space to grow.. ANY IDEAS
Just try to remember to get the seeds out earlier, that one I waited too long in this video, but it’s still fine. And yes, plant them with a little bit of paper towel he’ll disappear. 😊
Love your videos
Thank YOU SO much!
wonderful advice! i love this! i am having some issue germination, this makes things so much eaier!
Robbie thank you so much for all of your tips over the years not only do they work, they have saved me time & money. 😊
I like grow alfalfa spouts, it's like growing a Chia pet in a jar.
I'm glad that you have humming birds today 😊
Thank you Robbie, you always have good ideas🥰
You never cease to amaze me! Gotta try the foil.
Wow Robbie... Pretty darn Clever. Thank You ❤😊
You’re welcome 😊 Thank you ❤️
Thank you Robbie. I keep watching your vudeos and learn so much.
coffee filters: I've tried double layering them on sown soil + stick "spears" on top to hold them in place.
Tulle tip: put sand inside flat-bottomed ziplock hole-less bags then tulle/dirt/seed ontop. Holds water, can see moisture, and much better grow area than bottles.
Best for winter sowing for less favorable growing zones.
I've going to play around with water-proof paper and pencils printer paper as home-made labels ("brand rite in the rain" I've used in the sauna). Just cut to size. Way cheaper, durable. 200pages or so for 30$. AKA lifetime supply and can even use as a mulch top layer like your aluminum or vermiculite.
Great ideas! I grow seeds all year long and in the winter time it’s an indoor crazy seed fest. I have never bought seeds. Every year I go out and collect them and reuse them and that is part of how I make a decent living. I have been fighting with soil and ideas for many years and it wasn’t until the last two years that I decided when I transferred all my 200+ indoor plants to propagation. That I would do the same thing with the seats. It is an absolute life changer! And I don’t mean some fancy publications set up. I’ve been propagating my plants including orchids, yes orchids and money plants you name it it’s in water. I have some with and without small pumps and they pretty much do the same regardless. I will eventually transfer everything to a small pump type fountain setting to help with not having to change water weekly. I had a cup full of Hydrin peroxide a week and that alone cuts down tremendously on any stagnation/algae. I don’t have to worry about overwatering and pests are no longer an issue plus a mess of soil and the wheat. Back to the seeds it’s really simple , lava rock a little bit of water throughout the season, a grow lamp, some moss, and a small pump for extra circulation and oxygen. I grow tomatoes carrots but mainly flowers. I have never been a green thumb. I did not fall in love with plants until five years ago when I rescued my first tomato plant from the compost bin. It was a very magical experience. Since then I’ve become addicted to rescuing plants that nobody wants that are ugly and everybody thinks that are dead but are not. I’ve never paid full price for a plant and save only the ones a mother could love. I appreciate your videos and I just wanted to let people know not to be afraid to try new things. don’t get caught up in the height of having to do this or having to do that. Seeds and plants are so resilient and my plants are like my babies. I talk to them I put their hertz music on every day for them and also that is another key point if you want your seeds and plants to grow healthy and thrive in ways you would not believe put hertz frequencies on at least once a day for plants. If you’ve got a dying plant don’t get caught up on if I watered it or not watered it enough put some music on hertz frequencies I guarantee will turn things around quickly. Ask yourself where the plant is in what part of the room? People get tripped up on too much lighting or not enough lighting but actually if it’s next to a loud television or if it’s in a room with a lot of chaos the plant will not grow as well. Check your environment before you check yourself. You’re doing everything right but it could be certain things are contributing to the plants decline. Plants do not like to be alone they do not like yelling and shouting they are more sensitive than people realize. Like everything more energy and energy is everything. As a psychic medium energy worker that is my entire every day I don’t know only check the water levels I make sure the first thing I do is check my energy in the energies in my space. Clearing and seven well I made my point you have a beautiful day.
I made the hummingbird cover today. They only had a round wire instead of the square. I made it work. Thank you for the great idea. It's up and out waiting. I'm in coastal VA.
Even though I have had Covid for over a week , I did manage to get my cauliflower starts planted out into the garden today . I can’t do much because I’m so exhausted, but I am so inspired by your videos I can’t help myself .
Growing up in my country nobody knew about planting seeds in small containers first, we just dug a hole and dropped it in the ground and walla!!
I started most of my seeds in yogurt containers. As always good ideas for seed starting.Thank you Robbie
my plants need collars to keep them from getting stem rot from overwatering. any ideas on what to use to make plastic collars?
Great ideas, as always....I am so happy I found your channel.
Thanks Robbie for sharing with us.🌱🌱💚👌🏾✨✨
Great tips But in the plastic shoebox no holes in the bottom??? How do you water it?
Always an inspiration and a treat for Kitty, too! Blessings to you both! 🏆
I love using the red Tule for this ! You can see it better ! 🤓🤓🤓🤓
Great ideas like usual!
Thank you! 😊
You are still so interesting in every video! ♥️♥️♥️♥️
I am starting seeds tomirrow with one or all of your methods.❤
Very useful information. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks so much for all the great tips 😊
What kind of soil do you start seedlings in?
Thanks great video
Keep kitty paid, lol!
Really informative. But… those plastic containers will live on for a thousand years in our landfills. Obviously you are a land lover. Protect our land and ditch the plastic bag , re d cups and shoe boxes. Please.
Recycle recycle and recycle. I use containers that food comes in and use em till they are finished. I use cardboard egg boxes and toilet rolls. Just have to put our thinking caps on😂
My plants are ready to go outdoors! I've got all sorts of greenery popping up...a few are mysteries & like you, some are not growing at all. I saved seeds from my Purple Majestic Pansy last season. Using the paper towel method, I took 8 of the largest seeds. All germinated, but only 3 are growing well. I threw them in w/the Mother plant which I'd cut back all the dead matter from. I did get out to TS earlier today & was amazed they had a few varieties of Pansy in hanging baskets. I couldn't resist the colors...so I got 2 for a total of 6 different colors. As soon as our weather quits going from 90F yesterday to 57F today...I think I can give them a few hours each week {at minimum} of fresh air & true sun. They loved this past wknd. outside, so did the dogs & I.
😊😉🙂😍
😊❤️
The tinfoil around the plants really worked great idea for getting a little extra light for my window seal seedlings. Always great tips and tricks from both you and Gary thanks for making gardening easy and fun.
More amazing tips!!! Thank you so much❤
