yes you can over water in planter you want the soil to be damp 2 inches below soil level use your figure to check also adding natural mulch leaves straw pine needles even shreaded papper will help

Overwatering is a common term but I find it misleading, in the same way that a diagnosis of a calcium deficiency misleads people to thinking there is a lack of it in their soil. When people say that a plant was harmed by overwatering, the actual problem is that there was root rot caused by a lack of oxygen. Roots will gladly take oxygen that is either in the air or dissolved into water. This is (one reason) why a non-compacted soil is important for plants, it allows root access to air. However, water itself absorbs some air on contact, dissolving it in. This really only occurs substantially when there is a lot of movement, like small beads or streams of water moving through the air into the soil. Over time, the dissolved air will disperse out, so unless the water is moving while contacting air it will not uptake more. If a large potion of the root system is stuck in this de-oxygenated water, and lacks enough contact with air, then it will essentially suffocate, causing the roots to die and rot away. So the solution is have a porous soil that keeps a very good amount of water but drains enough to allow all unabsorbed water to drain out. This lets the roots have access to enough air and water both. In the case of tomatoes and other nightshades, root crops, squash, cucumbers, melons, and many more, they also want a very consistent moisture level. This stops the plants from going through frequent cycles of getting water then drying on loop. When a plant that has fruit is dehydrated, it will begin to take water from the fruit itself to try and survive. Once you water again after the plant does that, you will notice the fruit getting stretch marks or even bursting. Consistency also stops nutrient deficiencies that cause problems like blossom end rot. If a plant could truly have too much access to water then hydroponics would not be possible. There are many different methods for hydroponics but they all take measures to ensure the roots will have access to oxygen in some way. When I do hydroponics I fill an entire bucket with a nutrient solution to the top and put my seedling in a small net pot in the lid. I keep the water topped up but put an airstone in the bottom hooked to an air pump to cause bubles to form and the water to move, splash, and absorb. So in my case, my entire root system is submerged but the water is constantly getting oxygenated. My hydroponic plants even grow far better than traditionally grown ones.

yes a tsp of epsom salt to gallon of water is the way to go. Been doing it for indoor and outdoor gardens for 15yrs. I never added it directly to soil as I feel it is easier to control the TDS/ppm if mixed into water

@armchair22 thank you for your message we and no youtube channel that has over 1000 subscribers has any control of the ads or ad length and channels that do not want ads have no choice youtube puts them on every channel.

We are just stating fact for actural science that have been tested and shown to have very little if any effect for the effort put in we are not selling any alternative just workign to correct the lies that are out there and the click bait people belive links www.gardenmyths.com/banana-peels-garden/ ucanr.edu/blogs/blogcore/postdetail.cfm?postnum=42910 link www.bhg.com/gardening/gardening-trends/banana-peels-in-garden/

Though it may be safe for plans, it is generally unsafe for drinking. Unless you boil it and filter it, otherwise it. Can I have some harmful chemicals? But when used in the garden, the soil has a buffering capacity that can protect itself from those potentially harmful chemicals

It sounds like they had powery mildew

Thank you it will always be purple these in the video the other based on varirty will be the same color during the full growing time

I have not heard of them I looked them up an 49 days to harvest this would depend of when you can get them in the ground based temps thank you for the the informtion

Glad I could help!

Thanks for watching!

yes for sure

Yes it is
