How to Plant Square Foot Gardens : Less Work: Square Foot Garden Benefits

[1000Classics]

Guess what is easier! The Bucket Garden, The Garden Master's system that not only is low watering and successful it is so simple.

[AngelikavonDeutschla]

okay. I built a square foot garden last year. Honestly, still I have a North garden that is still the old fassion way. Nevertheless, my square foot garden did not do a good job at all. My old fasion garden produces better veggies then the square foot garden.

[triptows]

I would recommend square foot gardening only if you grow the right vegetables. I can give you a few that will not turn out as well. Tomatoes, Cucumbers, probably corn, but not quite sure judged on my own experience. Never tried Pumpkins so close but that is a no brainer not to do.

why must i have to watch commercials on youtube? come on youtube your better than that

I have a question let say you use Mel's mix...

And put a condo for the worm...

Would you have to change the earth after couple of year?

Or the worm would be enough for fertilizing ?

thanks

[YolandaVanveen]

Yes, square foot gardening has been around for centuries and thanks to Mel for the books! Thanks for taking the time to watch my videos and for all the nice comments!!

how do i get this expertvillage to never show up on you for me that would be helpful

[itube0033]

Why is she posting videos if she doesn't know what she's saying????

[vorpalbla]

This is not accurate. The veggies are not "separated from each other" by the "barriers," which merely rest on the surface of the soil; the grid serves simply to remind the gardener of what is where.

[ronjohn862000]

@vorpalbla you're right. Mel Bartholomew which is the "inventor" of the squarefoot garden states that the square grid is only on top and is only to identify equal areas for plant to grow and does not seperate the soil/roots. yolanda vanveen is a retard, she has several videos where she talks bogus crap like for example saying wheat has no gluten and she has pea plants calling them green beans. i can email links since it wont allow you to post them

[phillipgaley]

@ronjohn862000 Actually, didn't "French intensive agriculture" appear long before Mel Bartholomew?

[pepperjoe12]

Great video. Check out my YouTube videos.

The advantage to eating as much local as you can is that farmers who ship always select varieties made for withstanding a long time in a truck. You and local farmers can choose varieties that are delicious and nutritious but might not hold up. Much or varieties!

[gscarecrow]

KRIKEY!!!!!!!!! She ventures outside?

[Readmit]

Okay there's just one thing I want to know. How come groceries stores have every kind of crop all the time, but when I try to grow them myself they only grow during a certain season. I know it's because they use chemicals but is there any organic method that can make them grow all the time.

[capitaindouleur]

It's because grocery stores import fruits and vegetables from different countries.

[gellegbs]

Its because we get our produce from all over the world where the climates are different.

[KWalsh554]

They are trucked in from other areas that have different climates. You could try growing in a greenhouse. That's really the only option.

[af100984]

yea a green house.

[0bn0x10u2]

You can grow indoors using artificial lights that can be put on timer to mimic the spring/summer/fall/winter. For example 16h light / 8 dark, then 12h /12h to make the plant flower. You can do this yourself organically in your home and use the dirt and "compost tea" from a wormbin as fertilizer. Hydroponics and aeroponics will grow the faster then in dirt.

[rathor1622]

Its because they import them from different parts of the world. When shopping at a super market all of the food there comes form a distance greater than 1000 miles. Start shopping at farmers markets.

[BobRossChiaPet]

Ron Paul makes too much SENSE, just like growing your own garden!!!

[emforty2]

want a real workout with "results"

want fresh food that you know its SAFE

want money in your pocket if thats not an incentive i don't know what else is..

start DIGGING !!

[musolinilampost]

Many Ron Paul MeetUp folks went to John Dromgools Natural Gardener today in Austin , Texas and got clued in to this phenomenon. Some of our local more hyperbolic talk show hosts have referred to predictions of food riots by 2012, and if that worse case scenario unfolds, fore warned is fore armed.

I love to reflect on Voltaire's last line in "Candide".....Tend your garden.......!

Lord we thank our gardeners.

[tinkygarden1878]

That is great. I love Ron Paul. I am known as the "Ron Paul" kid at school! HAHA!

[xxHarveyMoonxx]

that is a very good idea I might try it next year

[tmomof6]

The good thing about ft2 gardening is that you can do it on your porch or in any well lit area. You might not have to wait until next year. Try the soil mix in a 12inX12in pot IN YOUR HOUSE! & see what happens. Good luck.

[myorganicflowers]

Nicely done. Looking forward to your next video.
