@@02markcal i’m in southern california so pretty hot. my soil is pretty dense so i’m scared of overwatering and getting root rot. also i don’t have much space and the way the garden is set up is kind of in the shade so it gets maybe 4 hours of direct sunlight. i don’t think it’s windy enough to properly pollinate… so many variables i don’t know what the problem can be

I agree on good soil. In the Midwest we have a lot of clay. I use mowed leaves every Fall & my homemade compost. I own a dwarf bunny to use his pelleted manure as fertilizer. The fertilizer is well rounded. Not just nitrogen. Too much nitrogen, & you get full lush leaves & no fruit. I also use fish emulsion on young plants. Watering deeply is important too.

What fertilizer did you use?
@mymainegardensАй бұрын
Hi…. It really starts with filling the beds with good stuff then I used a fish fertilizer last year. Worked well. This year I’m trying a few new things. I planted the tomatoes with tomato tone and will again use the Neptune fish/seaweed blend and I am going to incorporate some cal-mag. Watch for a video from this years beds … fun to see what works and lessons learned. Happy growing!

...............Question: I have beach sand that's been in a sealed, airtight container for a few years, is that safe to use?
@mymainegardensАй бұрын
That should be absolutely fine. Some suggest using play sand if you don’t have access to beach sand. So this should work. You can add some salt (not table) mineral (I use sea salt) to add nutrients and/or some manure mixed in. Good Luck and thanks for being here!

I LOVE peonies. I can remember wanting these in my wedding flowers. It was December, so of course, the florist said it was a no go lol. That was almost 18 years ago so I was young and had no clue about anything 😄 Im currently trying to take care of some petunias that aren't looking so great. I did watch your sad petunia video and it helped tremendously. You just made it make sense by explaining why you cut them back and talking about the energy going to the new growth. Makes perfect sense so thank you. Ive never had a green thumb, but my granny's did! They could bring anything to life. I wish I'd paid more attention when I was younger especially now that I'm no longer able to ask them all their little tricks. Anyway, I really appreciate your channel and will continue to follow. ❤
