you gotta get some auto top-off system going in there. pumpkins drink so much water.

Would never have thought of growing pumpkins via hydro! Makes perfect sense - ours always run towards the drainage ditch between our fields - a PERFECT solution and hubby won't mow them over

nice to see you back at it again!

It's so good to see you again, I really appreciate your help and hydroponic videos 👍.

You're back, and already making my day happier! Beach umbrellas. I laughed so hard, the dog came to see what was up.

mhpgardener 2.0 is back where it all began...the little greenhouse.

It is GREAT to have you back! You were my inspiration to start gardening several years ago. I now have my own greenhouse and 3/4 acre garden that I share great veg with friends and family or whoever else needs food. Yessah!

Bobby thanks for coming back and bringing your inspiring videos

Where there is a will. There’s a way. Even nematodes can’t stop a determined farmer! Great idea buddy! Chuck

These are the videos I missed. I used your trick for jap Beatles and it works great. Then I looked and noticed you haven’t uploaded in a good bit. I’m glad your doing it again. Ever since your old old videos about big beef, I’ve always remembered those tomatoes.

Thank you for coming back Bobby, we love you!,

Glad to see you get back on here and showing off your gardens

Yes sir. It great to see you back.

I'm glad you two are back!! Many years ago you motivated me to start some gardening and your lovely wife, though you guys weren't together yet, motivated me to learn to can. We haven't done much gardening but I found a local wholesale produce auction(Amish country,York PA) and we do a lot of canning. I have been wanting to put up a greenhouse and start a hydroponic garden. Keep up the great work and hopefully I will be motivated by you to get things going next year.

So good to see you back!

Sorry to hear about your tomatoes I know first hand what its like losing a whole greenhouse full of plants. Its not easy. What you have learned has helped more than just you, now I know one more pest to look out for. God Bless!

Thanks for stepping up. You and Cajun played a major part in me start ing a market garden.

Recently moved to a farm, nice to have your videos back for inspiration

Great video as always! I find that drenching the beds with neem of everything I grow before planting and spraying with it about every 10 days is good preventative for most critters and disease.

I just want to go on record to say: As Donald was to you ... YOU are to me. Keep the fire burning, my good man.

Awesome! Welcome back!!! Who but you would think of beach umbrellas in a greenhouse! 😂

Headed to my little greenhouse that was inspired by your "tubies". Still doing dutch bucket growing of tomatoes, peppers and basal. Thanks for all you do to teach, inspire, and entertain us. Good to see you back.

So glad you are posting videos again. Simply the best on the net. Thanks for the entertaining and informative videos.

Thank you for posting another hydroponic video! I started learning about hydroponic gardening with your videos. I use your Masterblend based three part dry mix for nutrients. I add the three part mix to reverse osmosis water that is cleaned up to 8 PPM. I then set the ph to 6. It helps to heat a glass of water in the microwave oven, and dissolve the calcium nitrate with hot water. The Kratky hydroponic method works. But adding air to the nutrient improves the growth performance. Maybe you could do a video to compare the results with and without adding air stones and an air pump. I think you’d be impressed with the growth performance increase you get when you add air to the hydroponic nutrient. I’ve been waiting for a long time, hoping that you’d start creating videos again. Thanks again for your videos!

Brilliant as a new Lincoln cent. Thank you

Great. Glad you’re back.

Yay! Loved the umbrellas in the greenhouse and the red, white, and blue chair! I’m so glad you are back and imstillworking too! We need more of you and your teaching! Hay, Susan!

damn it's so good to have you back! great work Bobby!

That greenhouse build, specifically you putting the plastic roof on in the wind, by yourself is when I found and subbed your channel. Really nice seeing it again. So glad you're back making videos.

I’m not an experienced gardener but I’ve had good luck with pumpkins this year I had some pest problems but the surviving plants are doing well I think

Sooooo glad your back

Glad to see you back, keep it coming! Missed your perspective.

I love the master blend fertilizer and I'm also very curious about growing pumpkins using the kratky method. Thanks so much for your help and videos.

You are the number one guy who got me into weird backyard experiments. Glad you are back

Nobody would know the Kratky method if you didn't bring it back into the light on KZfaq. Also the Masterblend that so many people use is because of you. I don't know where our other friends are. Dale, Brock, Larry. Chuck is busy and busy and still around.

Pumpkins never had it so good, I bet they gonna be nice and big.Thanks for another great video.

Glad to see u doing videos again

So glad to see you back on here, Brother.

Great, thank you for all of your useful information throughout the years!

How you like me now!!!! I know that's right, good to see ya back! Be blessed!

It's awesome to see you back!

My favorite gardening couple is back in action making videos ! Best of luck to you and yours sir !

I am so anxious to see your pumpkins

Those look like some pampered pumpkins! Love the umbrellas, brilliant idea. Sorry to hear about the root knot nematodes. Haven't had issues with nematodes up in Michigan this summer but the rain has been bringing out the blight.

Fun gardening, I like the way you think. My one honeydew vine went through 40 gallons of nutrient in a Kratky large container and needed more. Pumpkins are very thirsty plants. You will definitely need more IPA's the way that pumpkins grow.

I am so glad you are back. I really enjoy your videos.

Grew those Atlantic Giant Pumpkins as a kid - they get Huge! Those pumpkins are going to take over your greenhouse- going to be such fun! Looking forward to the follow up video!

It's great your back. Love your channel.

Bobby I sure am glad you are back and stepping up to be our mentor like the web Cajun was yours... Thinking about trying some cucumbers hydroponically as soon as it gets a little cooler here.

Glad to see you haven't lost your sense of humor. Can't wait 'till next time.

Yay you're back!! Good to see you posting again!

The hydro pumpkin vid was perfect timing..as my first adventure with hydro is petunias n pumpkins..looking at the root mass u came out with allowed me to rethink my set up … Im lookin looking forward to seein how urs develop ...Thanks

Good to see you back kicking

So glad to see you back on KZfaq. I keep seeing you as a reference on researchpapers for hydroponics. I can't help but think there are a lot more people than just myself appreciate you for your candidness and honesty and humanity. Every good KZfaqr gets haters they're kind of like nematodes. The heat themselves while everybody else sufers from their work. Welcome back. Your brother in our Lord

Thanks. Im still working on getting to mhp 1.0 level. Glad to see you still got it.

I am so glad you are back.... I have missed you so much man...

Awesome 😎 my favourite gardener and I’m in England 😂

So, mhp...first nice to see you back. Second, love the greenhouse beach theme, Thirds..good ol hydro... love it..right…?

That was great. Happy your back

Loved this video! Especially the funny, but innovative solution to providing shade to your plants. Even better when you brought your chair in and sat right down!! 😄

Awesome 2.0! Thanks for sharing.

"How 'd you like me now?" Ha ha ha ha 😂😂😂

I am liking the hydroponic videos

I knew you'd be back! I like the intro.

My favorite channel. Glad you are back!

That umbrella surprised me. Cracked me up actually. 😅 I appreciate your videos alot. God bless you.

You're my damn favorite KZfaq gardner - hands down! Keepin' it real

Thanks you made the world a different place I work in Alaska I have told all the producer to watch the videos but my residents is in Iowa that’s where my green house is thanks so much I agree with everything you say and I understand not wanting to do the videos

Good to see you.

Great idea! Those nematodes are really bad down here in Fl! In fact they r what drove me away from dirt gardening and I built a small greenhouse and using your videos grow some great maters, beans, peppers, greens, and many other plants, so Thanks so much Bobby for all your help throughout the years!!!! And so glad you are back, and yes we’ll miss Donald.... Only thing I can’t seem to get to work in my greenhouse is squash!!! Yellow and zucchini,, I know it sounds crazy cause I’ve grown that stuff seems forever, but no luck in the greenhouse.... welcome back, so good to see your vids again!!!! W

MISSED YOU SO MUCH, SO GLAD YOU ARE BACK!!!!!

I literally laughed out loud! I remember watching that first video with you in the snow. And, I remember you building the second one and the wind blowing the plastic so hard I was scared for your safety. Thanks for the laugh and sorry about the nematodes.

You the man...

Good to c u back. Great attitude bro.

Oh my god thank you for coming back I have been waiting patiencly you The foodbank video was unbelievable but what I want to tell you is I am so happy I built my own green house and it has been all unbelievable it’s a low tunnel I done things a little different but I am using the buckets to grow everything the interest were to go lettuce and tomatoes got it done but then I started planting cabbage and broccoli and cauliflower your last video I loved but I just done it in a Dutch bucket

🤣🤣🤣🤣how you like me now ??? Love how relaxing you are with your tiny problems 😅😅😅

Excellent idea!

Awesome video ! I'm so glad your back to making videos . I don't think I have had to deal with nematodes . It's blight that I struggle with .

Great video!

LOL. Very informative and a great ending.

Love your attitude

Made my day my friend!! Bless!🍃💚🍃

I didn't know you were back glad to see you back buddy

Great Greenhouse, greetings from Thailand.

I like the beach umbrella effect

Another great ideas. Thanks for sharing.

New hat looks good for MHP 2.0!

Grow a ton of French Marigolds and then till them into the soil. This will end your nematode problem.

Hahaha! Man, I've missed you. I like the intro too. Enjoyed the video very much.

Awesome! Thank you for this video.

Hello, one thing u can do to prevent ground pests is put a cigarette butt at the base or a cigarette w out filter at the base, the nicotene seems to help prevent bugs, works on house plants as well and doesnt harm anything!

Like it! Great to c vids again. Cant wait to c the final (punkin) outcome😎👍

Well done, Brother!!!! Tell ‘em!!!

Good info and super entertaining!

Hahaha nice beach umbrellas gardening 😁👍♥️

It's so good !I like it

Are you considering using nematicides? Non fumigant products like Nimitz, Velum and Vydate can be drenched through the drip while products like Majestene, Dazitol and Nemakill are good biological options! Certain cover crops work really good at reducing populations, could be a good option around your totes. A nematologist glad to help if needed!

Root knot nematodes is the reason why I moved out of Florida. It's responsible for the biggest lost of crop than any other factors. There is no effective way I know of to remove them except to conjure snow to freeze the soil. All the other methods are just deterrents with minimal effectiveness. I'll be interested to see if the product you bought will help.

Loved it.happy pumpkins

You can make a little brew to kill off harmful pathogens, they’re smaller so they can be knocked off without harming larger beneficial microbes. Mash some ginger or garlic cloves, mix in equal amount of brown sugar real good, and add enough water that barely covers the materials. Stir every day for 4-5 days, and then you’ve got yourself a great antibacterial nutrient.
