when ur onions start getting bigger. remove the dirt from around the tops of the bulbs (after they get big with tall green tops) the reason for this is the onions will grow bigger & u can keep them in the ground right up till u use then, so they just keep on growing & u will have big big onions. we would leave ares in the grow right before it would frost. then pull them all & hang them in our garage to help dry them & we would have onions all winter long & put r potatoes on newspapers on a shelf it was so wonderful having something u grew that summer in the middle of the winter. I learned all this from my grandparents. they knew how to grow. they only had there garden to feed there 4 kids & they went through the depression. so that's all they had to eat. there garden & there chickens & eggs. they thought me a lot about everything.
You have really developed a nice approach to your videos, especially with all of the graphics and animations, as well as your narratives! Great job both of you!!! Very informative! :-)
I am so happy to be taking this visual trip with you guys. What an adventure and I love your attitude and creativity with the videos. Thank you for sharing this.

Thank you for taking the time to edit your videos. I enjoy your clipping pace!
Thank you so much for this video! I as well am just about to try the Ruth stout planting this year for potatoes and I was thinking of adding these in. The companion planting and your explanation was brilliant. I was actually introduced to your channel in my course I’m taking in college called Field to fork: Local and Global food systems. It was shown in our class the 337 potatoes video. I’m looking forward to seeing more.
Your content is really incredible and so valuable guys. You must have done sooo much hard work to get here and figure out how to make such good videos. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Hoping to start a small garden soon. ❤️
Did my straw garden set up last year, but planted nothing, was too busy on other projects. Now am about to plant garlic, onions, carrots and radish. Thanks for the video and tips.
I am going to experiment with this method where my lawn used to be. If it works, great. If not. I learned something. Thank you for your educational videos.
fantastic video, i have to say your camera and editing skills have improved greatly since the beginning. and also you gave me the grow bug, i appreciate it. wish i would have done this years ago.i think in a few years i would like to try growing (The Sakurajima Radish) it can grow up to 100lbs. 😉🖒
I am a new urban veggie grower with three raised beds so far and planning to add more. i am getting a lot of good information, things I need to know going forward. Thank you. I have raised swiss chard, tomatoes, zuchinni and sweet peppers and thats it so far.
WOW looking great, and giving me some ideas for my carrots and parsnips. so onions and radish companion it is. and then cover with layer of straw as don't have old hay.
I saw how things did not turn out as you planned in your follow up video. You can start your seeds in the hay and not the soil. This will allow the small feeder roots under the bulb to grab nutrients from the soil while the bulbs can grow large without the compacted earth restricting it. You did a video on fast raised beds by flipping sod over on other sod. You can do something similar here if you struggle to form rows with the small seeds in the hay. Place an inch or two of soil from beside your beds on top of the hay. Then stick the seeds in this. Your hay will decompose from top and bottom, and your root vegetables will thrive without any compaction.
Hello! I'm near where you are, Gatineau, Quebec. I also want to experiment with the "Ruth Stout" style of gardening. I've already obtained bales of straw but I can also have access to clean hardwood chips (from a furniture maker). So this fall, I want to mulch with grass clippings, tree leaves shredded, wood chips and straw. My question is: Do I just make layers of these like a lazagna? Could you give me the order that I should put these in? Or even if it's a good idea? I plant a lot of garlic, like 200, so this would be good to put on top? Thank you so much in advance, Danielle
hi. love you guys for the positive attitude. have u guys seen the lectures by the Kaiser's from singing frog farms? they do transplants reducing the growing period in ground. of course they tarfet CSAs and farmer markets, so may not be suitable for you necessary. but pls do have a look.
This was an awesome show! I thoroughly e joyed it. This put me in the mirror to try this experiment in my yard for fall planting, as well. #Keepupthegreatwork #NewSubHere
Your carrots will have a good shape even the first year, you'll be amazed at which speed the soil is built with hay, and after 2 or 3 years you will have almost no unwanted weed left.
Thanks for the video. Sounds real interesting. Going to try it out on our homestead! Just subbed your channel, looking forward to your channel! When you get some time, check out our new channel, we would appreciate it! Y'all have a Blessed Day!
How PBS hasn't picked this series up as show is beyond me! Everything you do is perfect. Please keep it up!
Cuz there propaganda pushers

Agreed! What program do you use to create the graphics?

Nice video! Good animation and narration. Looking forward to seeing how the experiment progresses.
Your voice is so great for educational videos ... you could probably do videos for other companies as a side job!

Cool! I'll be waiting for the results! I'm going deep mulch gardening myself this year, for all my gardens/beds.

I can't wait to see how this works out. And I love the cartoons ☺️
I enjoyed your video good luck ❤️🐶👍😊😺
Simply awesome!
My carrots used to be pathetically small too until I companion planted them with tomatoes. Give that a try.

Love your animation
How do you keep the grass seeds from the hay from growing?
this is kind of fun to watch your progress...................lol.
Thumbs up. Thanks for sharing. ENJOY... THE SIMPLE LIFE

Nice video.
I predict salads in your future.
Did you guys think about chickens for pest control in the garfen?
Can companion planting be profitable or yield more than commercial farming?
another great video

After years of putting hays on top of the new soil, would the ground be too high eventually?
Great Videos! thank you
as you know our beds are new and we have put all sorts into them, it's been but slow but we have faith
I like your 'give it a go' attitude. Good luck!
You don't have moles, or screws, or gophers?
How was the turnout for this experiment
cool
Was he throwing a 'G' in onion (onGion), or was that just my ear?
Lol… I was. But I’ve since worked that particular mispronunciation out of my vocabulary, thanks to comments like this one. ;)
@Back To Reality 0 hate, my sister does the same thing and I thought she was the only one.
We are A belonging with nature we forgotten nature nature is God

If your planting carrots correctly, you wont have any space what so ever for companion planting.
Correctly?
