I was thinking you should put an ad at the end so you can generate some income for yourself and people can listen to the ad while typing their comments :) You deserve a payout for all the effort of doing the videos.
Could you make a similar tour in a huge vegetable greenhouse? It would be interesting to see how they grow for example cucumbers and tomatoes in a large scale.
Not even gonna lie. I watched this video more than once. It was fascinating to see how seeds are started on that scale and the millions of tiny little seedlings becoming a sea of color. I swear I could work with a company like this with plants and be completely happy to go to work every day. Very cool video!
This is awesome. I manage IT for a plug grower in West Virginia. We grow just a few more ... 180 million per year. Our operation is very similar in that we grow both seedling plugs, cuttings, and finished product. We mainly wholesale to other greenhouses and independent garden centers, but we also operate our own garden centers in the Ohio River Valley.
I really wish these big businesses focused on straight species of native plants with smaller batches with more variation. Big hort and big box stores are selling us mostly non-native plants that do little for the environment. A trend is happening and people will start wanting plants native to their specific region. As an industrial engineer I can admire the process and as an industrial engineer I also see the greater impacts to sustainability and selling the customers something that helps restore energy to our global system if you will.
@@epicgardening I know your primary focus (based on the videos I've watched) is on edibles but do you do any ornamental planting? You don't look like you have a huge amount of property but do you do any videos on planting just some fun annuals? You're in San Diego so I'm jealous of your climate/zone and I absolutely LOVE bougainvillea. That would definitely thrive in your climate, no? I guess what I'm saying is while I appreciate the practical, functional gardening you do, it would be nice to see you grow something showy or fun (for outdoors). Do you ever do that?
I never knew there were so many automated machines created for commercial growing. It's cool to think that someone had to come up with all the engineering and the process. REALLY enjoyed this video tour!
Super cool behind the scenes tour and great editing showing everything in a step-by-step progression. Could watch these types of videos all day. I was fascinated by the process and wondered why I'd never thought about how the plants made it to markets to fill the demand. I was also, in my mind, comparing how my grandmother used to keep her garden and orchard flourishing with just her hands and native wisdom. As a new gardener, I love your channel. Thanks for this tour.
All I gotta say is wow. I really suck at starting seeds and getting plants started, but I'm really trying to force that skill and figure it out. These places bring me to be speechless because they've got it down to a science that doesn't fail. Gosh it's amazing. I want to be given an all you can take shopping spree inside these places to get as many plants as I can.
Awesome tour! Thanks so much for doing this. I love geraniums as well. Automation has certainly made the job easier for the greenhouses. Very cool video.
I had no idea! I spent the afternoon in my itty-bitty (400 sq ft) veg garden and also filled a few containers/baskets with flowers. Frost risk SHOULD be over now. That place is huge and amazing! So cool, thanks for taking us in!
This was an amazing tour! Very well edited and did not drag on. Thanks a lot. I love all gardening videos but these ones are really special coz you get to see something different. Please do more videos like these, even of different nurseries, just tours. It’s nice to look at different plants kinda like window shopping in another country👌
It is so amazing to see how well these green houses and production are laid out to come together for a final product. Then getting them to the nursery is another amazing step. Of course they have been at this for many years and all the problem solving they had to do, to make it work. excellent...
Thank you!! I love these kinds of tours! I would also like it if you made it to some plant shows and botanical gardens and filmed there. I love your concise way of explaining things and your very clear speech. I'm hard of hearing so when someone speaks really well and has a nice baritone voice like yours it's easy for me to follow. And it's SO, SO nice to be able to follow and not have to watch the CC when all the pretty plants are being shown lol! Please keep producing videos! I love them!
You can see by the movement of the sheets below the tables that they have proper airflow - possibly the reason why they get away with overhead irrigation instead of a flood and drain system.
I love this! So cool and fascinating to think that over many many years technology and knowledge has been accumulated to allow us to come this far in horticulture.
Wow man, it is truly amazing (Epic proportion) but the most amazing is the small space you need for the machinery. If you "ONLY" put all that Hi-Tech equipment in one room my guess is (I could be wrong) but a room the size of a half acre or even less, honestly 90% of the place is for the table where you keep the plant chilling until they get bigger and the 10 % or 5 % left is all the foot print you need for the machinery, nice and very informative video, thanks bro.
No way!! I used to live down that area for some years of my childhood! Smack down on Campbell by all the malls and a middle school, I used to complain to myself about looking out the window and seeing only shopping plazas and not some like “nature” or something 😂 Guess I was just living in the wrong area lmao Now recently gardening has become a huge part of my life and I’ve been binge watching your videos so for you to find places in SJ I’ve never seen or heard of before is astounding! That’s absolutely amazing. Truly thank you for these videos you help others in ways you may never think! 💚💜❤️🥭 c:
I know this is an old video but maybe you will see this. I would love to see how seeds are harvested, particularly the really small ones like moss rose. This video was great and I am glad I came across it.
Really interesting! I can just imagine the growers working with the engineers. It would take a lot of fine tuning. Producing on that scale is beyond my desire. I was thinking I would love to own that place, but then I thought I'd probably have ulcers. It is so very cool to see this in depth tour.
Thanks for the tour! Now I know why i plant my seeds on my own and take care i buy the right local seeds.. all bio and sustainable.. industrialization has always been the beginning of the end.
I love this video! This is what I was looking for. I wanted to see how the heck stores like Home Depot get such perfect looking plants. They buy them from places like this that have mastered the growing process. The downside is that some plants may not continue flowering when I bring them home because I don't have the right conditions for the plant.
New to your channel and loving it so far. I’m from Australia so I love seeing all the different varieties of plants and how you have to chose wisely due to the weather. We don’t really get snow here (only eastern states on mountains) so it’s definitely an eye opener!! So much info in your vids so thanks☺️

One word - Thanks ! 💐 Two words - Much Appreciated ! 💕 Three words - Keep it Up ! 😉✌🏻👍🏻 Lastly - the sequential, concise ,articulate , to the point presentation made it worth watching ...no lengthy history n botany n blah blah blah beating around the Bush !
I've been following you on Instagram for a very long time but just found your channel on here last week...needless to say, I've been very busy watching all of your videos! Thanks for the great content and inspiration...recently pruned my houseplant collection thanks to your guidance and ordered your book on amazon. 😍🌻🌼⚘🏵
Years ago I worked at a place like this in Sanger Texas call Color Star. It wasn't quite as sophisticated as this though, but that was 20 years ago. Thanks. The owner once told me he started his plant business for his love of plants. He said that after a few years though ithad turned into as much of a trucking business as a plant business.
I would love to see how they conduct research on specific temperatures, humidity, light, and soil conditions for different plants. Do they research themselves or get that information from published studies or something like that?
You mentioned that the pest resistance of geraniums makes it a good candidate for the border of an edible garden, I imagine we are talking about the big bright geraniums not the native ones that are hardy and smaller flowers?
This video is intriguing and informative. however, some reason it makes me feel a little empty kind of takes the magic and joy out of gardening seeing all the mechanics and very few people. Guess I’m more of a food forest guy who likes to start from scratch🤪
Kevin can you make videos for us on the seed industry as a whole and give us more information on gmo vs hybrid vs heirloom? Direct vs. Distributors? Also the best sources for those of us not quite growing at this scale, yet lol
@@epicgardening thank you! I've been searching youtube for good videos, not much analysis of this seedy business lol. In light of the recent Monsanto news you would think there would be a ton. For some reason, when I ask professional growers where they get their seeds, they get all cagey and never give a straight answer, except for one who pulled out a Johnny Seed catalog. Anyway this is such a big topic I'm sure there are many interesting aspects to explore. Thank you for your channel your videos are wonderful.

Thanks for your educative videos.how much does your factory cost? How big is your land?

Glad you enjoyed!
Wow, I was blown away. I appreciate that very much. God bless you and thank you.

Yeah the space that's required is really for letting the millions of plants actually grow, the automation is quite small in relation!

Wow first time to see millions of plants
I love that lavender 😍
Thank for sharing 🙂

Such beautiful and most knowledgeable video. Thank you so much sir for sharing .great job sir .🙏
