How to Plant Winter Vegetable Gardens : Cold Weather Vegetable Garden Tips

[liagarden]

To me, the main reason to grow your own vegetables, is to have organic vegetables, and secure a safe food supply. This is just a small raised bed & a few spinach plants. He probably did not grow them from organic seeds, either. There is a difference, & it is important; chemically treated seed grown "conventionally, & organic seed grown with compost/no chemical fertilizer.

I wish I could see the video, but all I see is the written dialog

This is a video on how to grow a winter vegetable garden? Damn Expertvillage videos. Most of them completely worthless.

just use compost tea....all natural and it won't burn....when you have to worry about burning your plant there may be something wrong no?

[joejoemorgan]

take a small wooden broom handle and poke it in the ground about 6 inches from the plant. Pour the fertilizer into the hole and cover it up. Your plant will absorb the nutrients a lot better without harming the plant and wasting fertilizer.

I use 13-13-13 and use heirloom seeds. Not the best but sure beats the crap from the store that god only knows whats in it. I use worm castings when I get them

By the way I only put the 13-13-13 in 1 week before planting that's it for the year.

Rain water would be better than city water. Might want to check out a less toxic worm casing product to put around your plants.

@aquabarrel I agree with you . During the rain season, I harvest as much rain water as I can, an I use it all year long. I keep the water in ll kind of containers. bleach bottles, 2 litter soda bottles, and many more.

Good luck with everything :)

Fertilizer = poisen

Grow organic.

You will get cancer from the chemicals if you dont listen and you are raping/killing the earth!

there are Organic ferts and nutes too.

[grainpsilo]

Fertilizer (derived from petro chemicals) is the exact same active ingredient in organic fertilizers but in a purer form.

The only reason that organic fertilizer is better is because it contains more macro and micro nutrients while chemical fertilizers generally concentrate on the big three (N, P, K).

So I dont understand how you can say using chemical fertilizer will cause cancer and is raping the earth.... your statement doesn't make any sense and sounds like eco-terrorist proproganda.
