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

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

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

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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!!

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

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

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

  • @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
