In today's video, I'll be setting up and starting a no dig garden and following along the process for several months, growing in it from start to finish, including all of the harvests we get from this garden in 5 months. In this no-dig, or no till garden, I'm growing with the 3 sisters method of interplanting corn, with beans, squash and pumpkins. This is a companion planting technique practiced by indigenous people of North America, and it's a great combination of plants to grow over the Summer. It's an excellent way to maximize space in the garden, and you can easily grow a lot of food. I've been using no dig garden methods for awhile now and have found it to be an easy way to garden with minimal effort and input, whilst having a fantastic output of vegetables that seem to thrive in this method, and build soil whilst doing so. Such a great way to garden to protect soil life.
You can layer a whole lot of organic materials like I did, which is also called a lasagna garden (as it's a whole lot of layers), or another easy method which I've also had great growing success with, is to lay cardboard onto the grass and then put a thick layer of compost over top of this, and plant directly into it. This is the no dig method that Charles Dowding also uses and advocates for and I'm definitely a huge fan of it after seeing the results first hand.
Varieties that I grew:
Sweetcorn, Long Island Cheese pumpkin, Butternut Squash, Grey Pumpkin, Small sugar pumpkin, Scarlet runner beans, Peans, Bottle gourds, Sunflower

I grow the same beans that you grew in this video every year and we've always let them dry out on the plant picked beans in the fall and Hall them out and then canned them in pint jars we fill the jars with beans about half inch to an inch from the top and then go back through and fill them about halfway with water then we use them for different things like vegetable soup and other soups

I've been doing no dig in my urban shared garden for 3 years now, and I learned a lot. There's a lot of mistakes people make with no dig. The first mistake is usually to NEVER dig. It works in sandy and loamy soil : you put organic matter on, and it works. But with clay soil, no. You still have to dig it once in a while, coz it compacts itself with winter rains. Or the way that I do it now, is a powerful cover crop of rye, vech, winter peas and fava beans. The second mistake is the type of organic matter. But that's not limited to no dig : people in America especially often put too much nitrogen rich matter and fertilizers. You don't need all those bone meals and fish meals and blood meals... One carbon based mulch is essential, like straw or wood chips, and you pair it with a nice nitrogen rich mulch, like compost, grass clippings, manure, or in my case spent barley from a local brewery (amazing product). But if you put too much nitrogen, you won't feed worms and mushroom enough, who love carbon, and you'll end up recompacting your soil if it's clay, or at the very least be invaded by nitrogen hungry weeds like quack grass or bindweed. But beyond that, no dig is easy, and SHOULD be the gardening and farming of the future. Whether it's cover crops or permanent mulch, it just works... Roots in the ground, worms, and some form of mulch, you won't need to dig anymore. And it's much more productive once all the soil life is booming. Your plants are less sick, your veggies taste better, and you don't have to break your back working the soil.

But, even though you didn't get a massive harvest from the beans, you actually did get a massive harvest BECAUSE of the beans... The nitrogen fixing from the legumes may have directly affected the health and size of your other plants, the squash in particular and you got enough back to plant beans in again next round. Would be awesome if industrial farming picked up this kind of tactic rather than fertilizing the crap out of everything.

Also, adding the pumpkin/squash plants they do a great job covering the whole surface, so weeds do not get a chance to grow so no chemicals to kill weeds are needed, which are very toxic. Large scale farmers could do the same, as you have said it.

My mind is going a mile a minute at the moment! The only problem I see is that industrial farmers need to use machines to harvest large areas quickly, and as the three sisters are so different there isn't a single machine that can be used on all of them at once I think. Maybe flying drones? Imagine thousands of small flying drones connected to a computer that first harvests the beans at the top, then the corn in between the stems and finally a tractor or whatever you harvest pumpkins with when everything else is done! I wonder if you can make something like that cost effective... 3D printing maybe?

watching gardening videos helped me get into gardening. I was just a voyeur for a long time lol, but then I decided to actually start trying to grow some things I was personally interested in. For example, my landlord had a gooseberry bush (if you're not familiar, they're like a very interesting mix between a tomato and a cherry - sour and sweet), so I got curious about trying to get one of the seeds to sprout. That was only about a year ago, but it's had quite a pleasant domino effect. I'm growing papayas now, different types of spinach, a few baby coconut trees. So cool once you start trying your hand at some of this stuff

About a year ago I got a bit of a surprise to find a pumpkin patch growing in my back yard. Mind you I have various plants that grow wild there (mostly along my fence lines), including grapes, various peppers, black berries and a couple vegetables I don't recognize. I also have cherry trees in my front yard, and pine trees in both the front and back yards. Turns out my neighbor was disappointed because he thought he didn't grow any of the pumpkins he planted, when in reality they just all grew in my yard. But we can't see each others yards with all the vines and small trees along our fence, so he didn't know that until I mentioned there were pumpkins growing in my yard (12 of them). By the way I live in Lower Michigan, so the weather isn't the most predictable.

I think your show is great btw. Re. 3 sisters (squash, corn, beans). I tried it here in Malta (North African climate). Just like you, I noticed that the beans didn't do well but the squash and corn did OK. I think I know what is going on! Despite the 'hype' my experience is that beans need as much N as anything else to grow here. HOWEVER, once they have grown and start to die back, the N is released (from the root nodules) to the soil. I did an experiment this spring planting tomatoes next to peas but towards the end of the pea season (March / April here). Sure enough, the tomatoes have gone crazy as the peas die back (it is also very useful that the tomatoes cling and climb to the pea stalks, so removing any additional need to support them). I suspect that the 'finer details' of the very ancient 3 sisters method have been lost over time and the key to making it work is to grow the beans 1st. Then plant the corn approx. 1 Month before the beans will die back. As the corn grows (and needs more N), you can tie the bean vine to the corn of course, thus freeing up the understory to plant squash. Then, as the beans die and release mineralized N to the soil, both the squash and the corn benefit with the double whamy that the ground cover reduces evaporation so requires less water. Tah dah! i.e. the missing part that makes the 3 sisters work is timing. Also, (because you clearly enjoy the unusual) may I reccomend (if you haven't already) that you try to grow 'yard long' or 'Asparagus' beans (USA) or 'snake beans' (Asia)? I have found that they will grow in our 30+ C summer heat when most other beans fail and they are amazing in stir fry dishes (obvs. not a good choice for 3 sisters). You may be very surprised at the taste. Keep the videos comming (so sad that I cannot grow feijoa here (3 attempts at both seeds and saplings all failed) I am very envious).

Hi Dominic, thanks for the info. Yea like you say I believe plants are able to access the nitrogen more once the bean plants die off, but I think there is also a fair bit of research that other plants can still benefit fairly well from living nitrogen fixers due to root shedding. Definitely an interesting topic and something I'd like to keep learning about! The technique of the timing you've suggested does sound like a good option and makes sense, so thanks heaps for that :) I had a go with red noodle yard long beans this summer and got some from them (showed them briefly on my Summer garden tour video). They didn't thrive here like the runner beans I grew, maybe the Summer wasn't hot enough, but we at least got a bit of a harvest from them and they were a cool thing to have growing! :) Cheers

something that i've learned from growing up in the american midwest is that corn tends to draw up nitrogen from the soil without returning it, and beans tends to replace nitrogen in the soil. that's why we have a crop rotation in my area of corn one year, soybeans the next, and so on. i feel like that's another reason why the three sisters method is so great (aside from making great use of the land and providing some great, multi-use crops), it helps to manage the health of the soil more than any one crop would. loved the video

I was thinking the striped butternut could be a "Barbara" butternut, which has the same striped pattern as a cushaw. It's the same species, Cucurbita moschata, as your Long Island cheese pumpkin. The typical butternut can grow quite large under the right conditions, though some like my personal favorite, the Tahitian butternut, are bred to grow to massive sizes. Also, I was hoping you'd mention that the beans you planted, the scarlet runners, are known to be perennials and should come back year after year. It's one of the few beans that produces tubers, which help it survive cold winters, and also happen to be edible.

Had to laugh at your “no workout today.” I can’t imagine where you get the time to do that on top of all the farm work that you do. So much of this brings up fond memories of my childhood. I am originally from Northwest Ohio. My grandfather had a small 10 acre farm on which he grew mostly corn but would rotate out to soybeans, especially when the prices of that would go up. I remember the sunflowers also. He would sometimes grow popcorn which was awesome. My grandmother was in charge of all the other veggies, lettuce, cabbage, green beans, etc. As kids we would go over and help out with the weeding. I really enjoyed the fresh green beans and haven’t found an equal since then. Keep up the great work!

My dad grows different types of gourd and squash, when they do dry out just drill a hole for a bird and they absolutely love them for bird houses

Perhaps you could try double row planting your corn/bean crop so you can walk between them. I single row plant and hand polinate the beards of the corn every few days just to be sure I get full cobs.... it works well. I'm going to try your intercropping with beans next year. Thank you Kaleb. :)

I haven't seen any comments on the Long Island cheese pumpkin so I wanted to make sure you know that you should definitely give it a go again. My climate is very different from yours (very hot and humid U.S. south) but I find that they love full sun and are extremely vigorous climbing vines. You can expect huge leaves that can easily reach about a half meter wide. I usually only get a couple of fruits per plant but what do grow make the best pies. They are rich and buttery!
