Most of these tips should have a *smallprint disclaimer somewhere. Baking soda in a soil that is not so acidic to begin with will stunt the growth of tomatoes, if you want to sweeten them you should give them more sunlight eventually by painting the wall behind them white or placing some aluminium foil behind. Bananas are best buried, not left on top of the soil, actually it's best to throw them in the compost and use that compost wherever needed. Only coffee grounds should be applied on the soil around the plants to give them caffeine to fight against aphids, if needed. Eggshells don't disintegrate by themselves, they need to be dried and made into powder, then mixed with the ground. Etc

Actually where I live, it is legal to take the plain pine pallets, if on offer by a business, and often left out the front for ease of access to them...however, the thicker painted ones are the ones that must not be taken, and also can not be sold/given away by the business who uses them. I believe these painted ones belong to the haulage company/ importers...and are recycled (supposedly) So, I guess it depends where you live, and how strictly people stick to this mostly unknown 'rule'.

I came up with my own idea of keeping snails / slugs away. ** I have 4' x 16' raised boxes** I was at a yard sale one day and someone was selling a brand new unopen box of carpet tacks.... You know the one that are on 4 foot long wood strips that nails to the floor for catching carpet when the carpet is being installed. I nailed the carpet tack strips on the top of the raised boxes. For those who may not have raised boxes, you can always cut the wood strips to size and place them on the dirt. Snails / slugs sure hate sharp nails. ** Side note: I have used eggshells and do wor. However, after some watering or even rain these eggshells eventually disappear. - There is one other trick one could do. to deter snails and insects. Grind up hot peppers with water in a blender. Filter out the remnants of the peppers with a coffee filter and pour the water in a large jar. Mix approx 4-8 onces of the hot pepper *juice* and mix one gallon of waterin a garden sprayer. Spray your plants. The hot pepper does NOT hurt the plants but does deter insects for a week or two, depening on rain and weather.

It’s now the 25th of October ‘23 and I wish I’d seen this video back in March when I first planted my seedlings. I’ve known to put crushed egg shells around the plants for yrs now and it truly works, plus their calcium is great for the plants as well I wish I’d known about the baking sofa around the tomato plants. I had 21 tomato plants this yr but hardly any tomatoes matured in time before the frost and snow came. I’ll be sure to try a few of these tips in my garden next yr (that is if my terminal liver cancer hasn’t metastasized and taken me by then). Here’s praying it doesn’t. Growing up and spending time gardening with mom is one of my more joyful memories I have of just the two of us away from my 7 siblings. It’s a great way to feel centred and being grounded -pun intended.

BOgus. The Cavendish banana which is the one that is exported doesn't have seeds. In fact, the reason that the Cavendish banana is at risk of going extinct is because there is a banana disease and all of the trees are clones. There are only immature seeds in those bananas. They were bred that way. They are all propagated by cuttings from a parent plant. They have cloned and are all genetically identical.

Diapers? NO! ALL THOSE CHEMICALS?

@user-rz7cm2we3x Жыл бұрын

I think what they meant are the superabsorbent polymers, which bind water and are used also in “potting soil”/“growing media,” also known as “potting mix” or “potting compost” - they are used to keep this substance (it’s not soil!) constantly humid. But if you are planning to use a disposable diaper, you need to open it and mix the inside content of the diaper with the soil. Diapers drain the moisture and are designed to keep the skin dry, so a whole, intact diaper under the soil will sponge off the water from the soil and keep it bound inside itself (those granules). The effect will be a dried soil, not moist, I think. I don’t know exactly, you need to check things out.

@abo3abid1 9 ай бұрын

Diapers have sodium polyacrylate. Sodium is a no-no for plants. You want potassium polyacrylate for your plants, but it is a little harder to buy than diapers

@user-rz7cm2we3x 9 ай бұрын

@@abo3abid1: Really? Wikipedia claims differently. This is what I’ve found under ‘Sodium polyacrylate’: “In the agricultural industry, sodium polyacrylate is used to help plants retain moisture in the soil.[2] It can act as a water reservoir for plants and is commonly used by florists to keep flowers fresh. Furthermore, the use of sodium polyacrylate for growing domestic fruit and vegetables has been approved by the U.S. Department of Agriculture.” Besides, sodium polyacrylate is used in so many industries, I’ll not even try to enumerate them here, *and* it is used in *food* *production* : “It has been used as an additive for food products including bread, juice, and ice cream.” It is also used to produce hydrogel (used for contact lenses and breast implants among other products and uses) And also on Wikipedia, under ‘Potassium polyacrylate’ I’ve found: “Different from sodium polyacrylate, potassium polyacrylate can be used as water retaining agent in agriculture and won't cause soil salinization.” But there is a warning there without any further explanation: “Environmental and Human Hazard Potassium polyacrylate is an extreme environmental pollutant. Extensive measures need to be taken in case of spills and release into the environment including containment and notification of authorities. First aid measures include removal of contaminated clothing and shoes and medical attention if it gets into contact with the skin [1] Uses: Water retaining agent As a type of superabsorbent polymer for plants (Ag-SAP), potassium polyacrylate can increase moisture availability to plants. It mixes with soil to increase the soil’s capacity for holding water (with water gel form which stay in soil for months[2]) and making it available to plants. This improved soil readily releases moisture, along with water-soluble nutrients, to plant roots on demand. The specific retention of potassium polyacrylate is weaker than roots of most plants. There are claims it can be used in seed coating, grow seedlings, planting crops, topdressing for crops, planting/transplanting trees, flower transport etc.” Looks like both sodium acrylates and potassium acrylates are used in agriculture for the same purpose (keeping moisture in the soil). They may have different effects on the soil and plants, but they don’t say on Wikipedia how exactly these two substances work and what is the outcome for the soil or for the plants. So, still a puzzle. I wouldn’t even try to mix the insides of a disposable diaper with soil to plant anything. I don’t trust chemistry😜

And last we don’t have any forks and spoons to eat with . But the worst we don’t have any vintager to can with . Then we can’t have no coffee because we don’t have filters or clean any thing because we don’t have any paper towels . Then it looks like a bunch of monkeys had a party in the garden with the winos . Wow great video great ideas I like them but I couldn’t help myself with the sarcasm ! The only thing I left out was the storage containers and the baking soda but we don’t have to worry we’re gonna have to go to the store now any way ! You can make a copper ring from old house wire put it around the bottom of your tomato plants in the dirt it will keep them from getting blite . And don’t let the women folks in on that certain time of the month I don’t know how that works . But the cucumber plants look like you dumped hot water on them and they die . My grandma always grew a garden from 8 years old up to teen age I would spend a week or two with her on my summer break . That’s how I know great info we all need to be prepared to grow a garden with the way things are . She even showed me a bunch of different wild plants you can eat . Sassafras tree roots for making tea . Even Tabasco spit as a natural antiseptic ! Sounds sick but it beats gange green ! Thanks for the great advice I hope I left you some you can use as well !

Vinegar does not work on crabgrass. I have crabgrass that grows in between concrete slabs of my side walk. I tried vinegar on some crabgrass one day. It made it wilt, but crabgrass has shallow runner roots, and it perked the wilted crabgrass blades up. Also if it rains, it dilutes the vinegar and pushes it deeper into the soil, which makes the top soil a healthier place for crabgrass to grow again. Vinegar might completely kill some broad leaf weeds, but you can leave crabgrass out of the entire picture.

Aside from using diapers, I've done everything you say here and I still don't have as much success as I'd like. For example, I have planted dandelions three, four times, or more, and they just don't grow. I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. From everything I've read about dandelions, they grow everywhere care free. My annual greens, wild lettuce, sorrel, and nettle none of which have grown. My investment is to the point where I don't have much left. By this time, three years later, I expected they would all be thriving. Three years now. Bananas and baking soda are part of what I've implemented. Because I didn't have the finances to build actual raised beds I used my plant pots. I cut the bottom off and buried them. Each pot became a bed for the different plants I wanted. I live in southern California so I don't have to deal with preditors, much. The worst has been Gophers but I got that under control. The only other thing that could be a problem are either grasshoppers or lizards. I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. Even my lemon, orange, apple, grape, and fig are all just hanging in there. My apple tree looks like it might not make it. I am SO bummed.

I also put rocks in the hole in the plant pot, that keeps the soil in the pot, but provides drainage.

@3:35 This also works on pesky neighbors who like to come over and pick at your garden. Just sit several cups of beer around away from the garden and they will quickly forget why they came to your house in the first place other than to just drink beer.

@@kathrynmcmorrow7170 This electroculture using copper antennae to draw in surrounding energies that benefit the plants and promote extraordinary growth without need for fertilizer is such a remarkable discovery to me. It is being rapidly adopted and experimented with by so many people! My understanding is that the normal copper oxidation has no decrease in the effect of the copper. Others I have read are using aluminum wire to make their antennas and getting marvelous results as well.

Thank you so much for your presentation and for the creative ideas, It's superb. I would start from an egg boxes to plant some seeds. I like to plant OKRA, EGG PLANTS as well I tried several times, but all were in vein. Thank you once again for the generous tips you showed.

@dianacurry6248 Жыл бұрын

Egg cartons do not hold enough soil for your plants to grow decent roots to then plant out. A better option is to save empty toilet paper tunes. Cut 4 slits 7n one end fold those into them selves. Stand up in containers then add soil and seeds.

Don't do these things. Most of the time you'll end up regretting it. Put bananas or banana peels in your garden if you wand fruit flies to swarm the garden and maybe even your house!

I hope you read this before watching but I wouldn't recommend any of these "hacks" to anyone. As for the banana in the thumbnail, they only mention the skin of it as a compost to add nutrients. Everything else is either not worth it or has WAYYY more negatives then positives.
