  • thanks

    

  • Nice. Someday, all people will be gardening their own vegetables, and eat peacefully with their families. On THIS earth.

  • Great video! Thanks for the advice.

  • you also want to see video: "how to clean your nails after gardening" :D

  • GREAT tips for a novice who was just hired to be an expert! Go figure!!

  • This is a good video, helpful to me. I am just starting my own garden, mainly herbs and vegetables, and got some good advice from this video. I found this very useful tool online for my garden, called Weed Killer Cane, very practical and useful. Just thought I'd pass it on - weedcaneDOTcom

  • garden area is also a great place to hide cash,

    wife and I grow massive garden, funny how locals beg for help, and I offer them food in my garden and they respond with can you bring it over. sad world we live in,

    every kid can play on the computer by the hour, but never ever grew a plant that produces food, nothing can go wrong with this world.

  • Another common mistake is pouring gasoline on the whole thing and lighting it on fire. I can't tell you how many times this has happened to me.

  • good advice on the water

  • Thanks for yet another great tip. I'm always willing to learn.

  • Great info!!

  • if you want a great how garden to dvd for a good price go to my channle click the link under the trailer

  • Thanks

  • I believe she is wrong about the number of pumpkin plants in that bed resulting in smaller pumpkins. If you are going to plant that amount of pumpkins then what should be done is making sure the required nutrients are there now for that number of plants. Adding more compost, regular applications of compost tea, etc. I recommend people to always learn from various schools of thought and experiment for themselves.

  • good info thank you

  • Thanks, I am a beginner.

  • Excellent Video, thanks for sharing!!! <33

  • Good video...keep in mind Mother Nature doesn't water/rain every day. Check out my videos for Gardening tips.

  • Those pumpkins look large enough for my needs. I don't need a pumpkin bigger than a volkswagon. :)

  • There are no mistakes....only learning opportunities .

  • the worst mistake is not to much water, as I use only rain water and save it till I need it.

    the worst mistake is using pesticides.

    I use a bug repellent for my plants.

    I use wild gourd leaves and make a tea to spray on my plants. Nothing in the bug world eats wild Gourd leaves so your plants are safe.

  • I like using my insect friends to eat the bad insects. I do not use organic or chemical pesticides any more. I promote the good bugs in my garden to eat them-- or use safe traps, like beer traps or coloured plastic in water to attract certain bugs or my hands to catch them. The BEST way to fight off bugs is to have healthy plants as they produce their own natural pesticides. Growing in nutrient rich compost produces REALLY healthy plants. There is nothing like it.

  • Your wisdom is evident, but hope you consider wild gourd tea, as it does not kill bugs but rather stop them from eating your crops. always test on one type of plant to make sure of no problems. but I have in my years found nothing better as a bug repellent for plants

  • YES! Over-watering! You are so correct!!! WOW, this youtube is pretty cool!

  • very good need much better still

  • watch?v=3C4J1WiTs-c

  • My dad is a top gardener and he never makes mistakes. unlike my friends dad who is a builder.

    Sad people, who would want to be a builder when you could be a gardener.

  • umm... what??

  • @HoboCabbage I'm thinking the same........

  • ..people make mistakes. It may not be a mistake, but someone may have a better way of doing something. I consider myself pretty knowledgeable when it comes to growing vegies, but there is always someone who knows more. I am open to suggestions and trying new ways. If the new ways work better, I employ those new ways. Open minds allow us to grow and continue to learn.

  • SMART

  • These really are the top gardening mistakes made by first time gardeners. Great tips!

  • Great tips. Thank you!

  • Thank you this was very helpful ;)

  • i like that she mentions not crowding the plants in the space. and letting the pumpkins or winter squash stay outside to harden to last longer. did not know that.

    the one problem i have her is about watering. clay water infrequent for long time (ie 2x/ wk for 20-30 mins), sand water frequent for short time (ie every other day or daily for 5 mins) add compost to help contain water in sandy soil and prevent waterlogging in clay

  • I couldn't tell that the pumpkins were crowded :( I bet they were a small variety anyway :)

    The diging down technique with the organic material tip and "if you don't feel moisture add water" she gave should cover both soil types, wouldn't you think? Covering both types individually would be a much longer and confusing explanation in this brief clip for beginners I think.

  • thank u

  • other than crowdednessnessness in my garden... anyone have tips for me? u can check out my vid on my channel.

  • thank you... you are one of the few expert village people that know what they are talking about.... I love the way you explain what YOU HAVE DONE, UNDERSTAND AND KNOW thank you...
