This was a great video. Very well done. I appreciate what you do. I just started last year and have found your videos along with others, including a guy you have mentioned in other videos, James P. It has certainly helped with the success I had last year. I'm very excited for this grow season. I am in zone 6b in southern ma, and I'm off and running. keep the great content coming. Thank you
Wow! You really know your stuff! Great channel. Educational videos. You are showing and proving you have good advice with each video. Thank you.
Thanks for all the great videos. I am building new raised beds. I noticed you have some kind of black fabric all over your garden area. I need something like that because my native soil has Johnson grass all throughout my garden area. I want to put something down to stop that “Evil Johnson Grass” and keep it out of my raised beds. It grows from rhizomes under the soil. What is that that you have used and where can I get it. Again thank you for all the great information. You are awesome?
@@stevedoyle1874😂y😂😂y
Thanks for the steps 😊
I like how straight to the point everything is. No time wasted!
After calculating the costs to put out a very large garden each year and then watching up to 20 deer at a time believe this was made for them, we didn't grow anything last year and purchased a CSA from a local organic farm. We saved over $200 for the season and had locally-grown organic food until Mid-November. This year, we decided to grow indoors during the winter and had ample supplies of greens and microgreens. Rather than have houseplants in our sun room, we have lettuce, kale, collards, mustard, and arugula under the grow lights.
Deer do not like Rosemary so plant Rosemary as a border and then deer won't touch the inner plants. Also, fencing like this guy did around the garden helps as well.
@@TheKuptis we had large rosemary bushes that wintered over for the last several years, and it did nothing to deter these urban deer. Fencing is not an option for us due to restrictive covenants preventing all but wooden lattice. The biggest problem is neighbors both feeding the deer and even letting them come into their houses.
@@wi54725 Sounds like you need to move away from a tyrannical government, HOA, or whatever instituted the fencing rules and also these people that think deer are pets.
@@wi54725 You have some weird ass neighbors
We don't garden to save money. We garden because we like growing things. Sounds like you should grow things that dear like and have a great garden for them and you can enjoy seeing them eat the things you planted for them.😂
Burying tomatoes deep is not simply about additional roots developing along the stems. It's also about being at a depth that has more consistent moisture levels without the same levels of fluctuation the surface experiences. They do better with consistent moisture.
Hello from Missouri. I'm growing a lot of container plants outside a 1 bedroom apartment. Had a lot of success last summer but I've been studying this winter so this summer should be bountiful. You are one of my favorite gardeners to learn from. Hope your garden is especially blessed this year my friend.
Thank you! I appreciate it. Best of luck to your garden this season.
You might be able to rent a community garden plot for cheap?
Hey there! Local Missourian here struggling with the same. We are in a house but backyard is teeny. I have to really pick and choose what to plant because I don't have much room. I've done tomatoes in large pots before to save space and they did mediocre... Once I put them in the ground and they blew up! Sigh... I'll keep dreaming of more land!
Just wanna say thanks for being such a great resource for folks just getting into gardening. Your videos have been incredibly helpful, but also great for just putting on whenever I need a distraction and want some Bob Ross style soothing content.
Thank you! I really appreciate that. I don't know how on Earth you could find my voice nearly as soothing as Bob's though 😂 Bob was one-of-a-kind.
So nice to see your channel growing (pun intended!). I get the sense that you put as much energy into making these information-packed videos as you do with your garden. Very much appreciated!
It certainly is a ton of work, but it's rewarding. Seeing the videos are helping so many people makes it worth it.
Bone meal, blood meal, compost, mulch. Yes, sir!
It feels like you hit another level with this one.
I'm happy to hear that! Thank you.
I love that you use/showcase products that are readily available to all, as well as not too expensive ❤❤❤❤
Congratulations on your 600k subscribers! Well deserved. Always great content delivered with great enthusiasm. 👍
Thank you! I appreciate that very much!
He's doing good. I hope he hits 1 million soon.
All those extra steps really help to build the soil. Definitely worth the extra effort 💪
It definitely is. Exceptional results require exceptional measures. But, it is not hard to do. It's actually quite easy.
I have a confession to make. Last year I planted out our peppers & tomatoes before May, when our last frost date is around mid May. I had pepper & tomato transplants that were big & flowering. The tomato plants were so gangly I had to use bamboo stakes to prop them up our I would never have been able to get the cages around them. Instead of plucking the flowers, pruning them back & waiting until the coast was clear to avoid freezes, I planted them out way early as is. It turned out to be an absolutely amazing season for our peppers & tomatoes. I think I just got lucky. Our Michigan summer weather was very weird thanks to the Canada wildfires that raged back then. I'm still bitter about not catching those 27lb bags of plant tone on clearance at Home Depot years ago when you made the video about catching fertilizers on clearance. Our local TSC has 2 bags for $24 each, which is decent enough per pound but . . . nope LOL At least I caught their daily deal for 27lb bags of Holly Tone for $6.97 each last September!
That’s the thing about tomatoes - the earlier you get them in, the better they do. I always start a crop early to risk to get them in early, because if I keep them alive, I will reap big rewards. Tomatoes don’t like being out in the open in summer. They’re a forest vine, so growing them like we do out in the open to maximize flowering beats the plants up.
I got hit with ice instead of snow last year, and some tomato leaves were purple due to the cold. Yes, you may risk a lot of things when a transplant, especially in recent years. Well, things happen lol
@@TheMillennialGardenerLast year the season started warm but then June was ridiculously cold which set the entire garden back a month . It really is a crapshoot when you put your crops in the ground.
I’m in Michigan too. I also got my garden out earlier than normal.
I think we underestimate the resiliency of plants. I'm in Toronto. I put seedlings down in mid April 2023. Some nights dropped below freezing. I had no problems. Furthermore, I planted them a little closer together and skipped the pruning and sucker removal. Lots of tomatoes to give away!
You are a great teacher and a SME! Thanks
Super video!! Lots of great information. Thanks a bunch. Spring is quietly coming around. Yay!
This is the most informative video I've seen on transplants! Great job!
This is exactly what happened to me this week and I completely interpreted it wrong. I knew my tomatoes were starting to outgrow their cups so I potted up to 1 gallon containers until last frost date (April 1) The next day 2 were blooming. I thought they were happy because they honestly looked better. A few of them I had to fluff up the roots just like you did. I hope they will do ok. It’s my 2nd year growing tomatoes. They are in my unheated greenhouse now and been hardened for a couple weeks.
Love your videos and teaching style. And hello to Dale! Much appreciation from Central Arkansas 🫶🏽
That orange looked tasty! You’re absolutely right, like anything else, what you sow is what you will reap! Thanks for the info. ❤ for Dale
I'm surprised how good the oranges still are. I've been picking them since December. It's astounding that they can hold on the tree for 3 entire months.
Thank you! This video will be very handy. I never miss your videos. You are the best!
Literally watching this while doing my seed starts in my greenhouse. Getting excited!
Thank you so much for making this video and sharing your experience!
Great and thorough explanation about fertilizers!! Thank you so much!
Great video and presentation. I saved this one for continual reference. Keep up the good work MG !!!!!
So much useful information and no nonsense.Thank you so much
Your videos are very helpful and informative without any distracting silliness! Thanks!
this answers every single question I had about this phase of gardening. The best. I just subscribed.
Thanks so much for the straight forward information…bet my garden will be a success this year!
Nicely delivered message. Clearly spoken without going on unnecessary rabbit trails.
This is my second watched video from you. Very in depth and informative. 😊
Oooooh Dale… you and your silly sniffer haha
The nose never stops 🐶
Sooooo much good info here!!!❤
These are always the best videos, so thorough.
Glad you’re enjoying them 😊
Hi from Georgia! This was a great video for me seeing I’m going to be planting my tomatoes, herbs, peppers.
I have used your channel to learn most of what I know about gardening. I just planted our second spring garden and followed this video exactly. I have found value in all of your videos that I’ve watched, but I’ve found this video to be the most useful for me. Thanks for the specific info.
I enjoy your videos so much! This is the first comment I’ve ever made on anything. You are so helpful! I even wanna rock your hat. My wife is sick of me talking about your vids. I started watching when I planted my first fig tree. You rock sir!
First time seeing your video. You have just taught me a lot all in one video. You are a teacher, I may add
Thanku for all your insight
Best explanation of the difference between fertilizer and compost I have heard yet.
Wow I’m so glad I found your channel. I’m in northern Ontario Canada so I add a couple months to your time lines 😂 but I love the tips on everything. Ty so much!
I live in a totally different zone ( zone 10) but you give so much good information for all zones in here. Thank you!
Always such helpful videos. Thank you MG! 😊👍👍
You're welcome! I appreciate you watching them.
Finely tuned athletes, I love it. You are a lot of help! Thank you!
You're welcome!
Great tips. Still waiting in Pa. At least another month or so. Love Dale in his shirt and his big nose! Thanks again
These are my early sacrificial tomatoes. I always start a flat a month early and plant them out and roll the dice. You have nothing to lose when you do it this way.
Our weather up here is too strange this winter/spring to bother risking time & effort just yet. I mean 60 Friday, 50s Saturday to snow (2 to 4 inches) Sunday back to 60 Monday. The risk is not worth the work for transplants too soon. I agree with great tips, but waiting is ideal. Happy growing when we can get going.
I'm in PA as well, we had flurries yesterday and plenty of frost last night, so hold strong! Cool-weather crops will go out at the end of the month, and warm ones in May - spring is on the way!
I agree with you about us having crazy weatger right now and erring on the side of caution. I too am in PA, in the southeast corner near Philadelphia. @kittiew260
Thanks for all the great tips.
You're welcome!
Love your garden area & all the advice. Thank you 👵🏻👩🌾❣️
You’re welcome!
I remember about 4 years ago when I first began gardening, I would severely stunt, and sometimes kill my plants when transplanting, now my plants seem to barely notice being transplanted at all. I just separated 3 large clusters of chives and spaced then out, they were flowering and all of the flowers kept growing after the transplant
Greatest gardening channel, particularly for those of us in the southeast. I've learned so much vital information that revolutionized my gardening. Before this channel, I had zero idea I could grow citrus here. Now, I'm a proud grower of an owari satsuma from McKenzie Farm. Keep up the great work! I look forward to seeing you eventually plant in FL.
Awesome video. Thank you.
I was reading an article on transplanting as your video came up! Keep up the great work.
Glad to be on time!
This is the best video ive seen hands down.
I’m 8b and new Gardner your videos are extremely helpful
Thank you for the step by step instructions. It's so beneficial!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!
This video is chock full of great helpful tid bits. THANK YOU
You're welcome!
Another terrific info-packed video. Thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I’m thankful for your channel! I’m growing many of your tomato & vegetable recommendations! I’m hopeful. Wish me luck!
Excellent! I hope you have a great season!
Excellent video! I find your videos to be very informative, thorough, and I like how you give your personal experiences. Thank you for sharing. I will consider building the hoop houses and will check out your other video. Full watch. Be well.
Beautiful start on the garden
Thank you!
I love your videos ❤. I always look for them. I planted my tomatoes exactly as you showed last year. I got the best tomatoes I've ever grown and I used organic fertilizer and the fish emulsion. I plan to do it again this year. I want tons to eat and can. Keep the videos coming. Love your dog ❤
Great video and tips
Wry helpful. Thank you!

You're welcome!
dude. this was immensely helpful for me. as i grow my first veg garden this yr. ❤many thx.
You're welcome! I'm glad I could help!
I’ve learned so much from you- my sincerest thanks
You’re welcome! I’m happy to help.
First I want to say GREAT video. LOVE the info and especially the ending about how this is an investment, and one thing many people don't understand is that very healthy plants don't experience the disease pressure and also very little insect pressure. It's easier for insects to feed on less healthy plants and this has been shown time and time again. Or, they will attack a weak segment of the plant which is why it's important to check your plants on a regular basis. My take on fertilizer is it should mostly be organic, but if it is shown that some fertilizer doesn't kill the microbiome in the soil, that's fine, but the other issue is what is it made of, and does that leave behind anything in the soil that will build up over time. That second issue is what can lead to sterile soil over many years. This is why it's generally safer, or better for the soil to stick to organic fertilizers. Unless there's decades of research on a specific fertilizer to see what happens with the soil over many years, there isn't the data that a person who wants to build the health of the soil over many years needs to make a good choice about using it. That's really the bottom line. So, that's why I personally will stick with organics. Using anything else requires decades of research and I doubt any company that exists right now has gone through that effort to study soil health (life in the soil) over decades of using their product. I'm on a plot that I will want to transition from more of a homesteading operation to being a full fledged business with both animals and crops and I want to build something that can be passed on, and is valuable to those who inherit it. It includes a home that is low maintenance and has enough solar panels to run central air conditioning which is important there.
This is true. When fertilizing, you should always focus on the health of your soil. That means the foundation of your fertilizing routine will be organic fertilizers, quality compost and natural mulches, because that will feed the soil and your plants. However, I boost my tomato plants with 20-20-20 to make them as thick, green and beefy as possible, because the insect and disease pressure is so bad here in the summer that they need to be as strong as possible to hang on as long as possible. Due to my exceptional conditions, I take exceptional measures. One watering can feeds about 6 plants, which equates to 1/4 Tablespoon of 20-20-20 per tomato. That adds up to 1 tablespoon of fertilizer per plant over the course of 2 months. Nobody can tell me that that is harmful, especially outdoors in a climate that gets 1-2 inches of rainfall per week, flushing my raised beds constantly. If you live in a friendly climate and don't need the 20-20-20 and you're happy with your results, don't use it. But, I can tell you if you have challenges and your plants struggle in your conditions, 20-20-20 may be the solution you need to take your harvests from "meh" to outstanding.
Synthetic fertilizer does not sterilize your soil. Organic fertilizers have the same elements as synthetic. Stop repeating paranoid silliness.
Great information!!!!!!!!!!
I always learn something from your videos!
Glad to hear it! Thanks for watching!
Great video! Thank you!
Great informative video as always. Keep up the good green work🤙
Thank you! I appreciate it.
I grow hundreds of sunflowers over the summer and shred the stalks in late fall and let the chip breakdown in a smaller version of your trashcan composters or I add them to my worm bin full of kitchen scaps👍👍
Sunflowers make for good chop-and-drop. If you're in a very warm climate, Mexican sunflowers are often grown for biomass.
Just exactly what I need to know, thanks good Buddy.
You’re welcome!
fantastic video. I've never mulched a tomato but I might start. I plant marigolds in my containers to prevent pests.. This year is the first year we had our own compost going and we are so excited to use it looks amazing.. all though 2 people only composted 1 25 gallon trash can all year it took to fill it.
Always such good information,,
Thank you!
Thank you for all the ideas and tips this is very helpful.
You're welcome!
This is Soooooo helpful. This is my first real year with a small garden near DC. I elect feel like I’m getting a late start because I wasn’t prepared for early spring, but my wold keep transplants are up two weeks early so I’ve got to get a move on! I’m sneakily devouring your content and learning so much. Thank you!!
Oh wow. Autocorrect is doing me dirty.
For the record: my “wild leek” / ramps transplants are up two weeks earlier than the past two years. It’s a real harbinger of spring.
You are awesome ! Thank you !
You're welcome!
Loved this video! I took notes! Blessings from the Oregon coast zone 9b.
I'm happy to hear it! Thank you.
thank you for all of this wonderful information! I just started planting my own veggies this year. I sowed my seeds about 4 weeks ago and they are doing great. this information is very helpful for the next steps for me!! Much love from Raleigh, NC!
Outstanding! Best of luck!
I really enjoy your videos. You are my go to guy!
I appreciate that! Thank you!
Great video, I would like to add... Instead of ground cover, I recommend 1 mil black plastic mulch or you can an find paper mulch (If you do not like using plastic). On the PVC hoops, gray is u.v. stabilized rather than the white from what I was told. That's why electricians use the gray outside. I have sold nursery supplies for a living for over 20 years and sell the ground cover, plastic mulch, crop cover, plastic, fertilizers etc and the list goes on. Happy gardening!
Waw! great garden teaching. Thank you, it is very helpful. Am watching at Texas .
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!
I learned a lot! I also loved the "Drop Mic" moment at the end of the training video!! Eating the orange!!!!!! 😂
A little bit of effort yields enormous rewards.
Great info !!! Thanks and remember say hi to Dale! Cheers 🍻
Very interesting, informative and helpful. Thanks.
You're welcome!
Love to see a review of this new product showing up in the box stores called Hydra Peat. I'm using it instead of peat moss this year. Yes it has some peat in it but only 20%. Nearly no content on KZhead on this product and using it for seed starting or potting mix or in the garden.
Yes! I needed this i started tomatoes in early February and they are still at 4 leaves and 2 to 3 inches tall!😢 i transplanted them even the roots were not rapidly growing... i haven't added fertilizer consistently because im scared of burning them.
You're on track. My main crop of tomatoes were started the first week of February, and they have 2 sets of true leaves. I just up-potted them today. This flat is a flat of seedlings I started over Christmas. I always start a flat of seedlings absurdly early to use as props in my garden videos, because in order to produce this content, it needs to be well in advance of people's planting schedules. Otherwise, it'll be too late. So, I take my prop plants and throw them in the ground a month early and take a risk with them. I wouldn't risk my main crop tomatoes like this.
This is so helpful, thank you! My tomato and pepper seedlings were started same time, Feb 4th here in zone 8a and they are tiny some haven't even developed the first set of true leaves yet. Freaking out that I'm too far behind with such lame slow growth :/
Great video!
I think I'm a little late as I've just started my seedlings indoors this week but it feels reassuring watching this video because I planned to do my tomatoes and peppers exactly the way you've shown with the same products. The only 2 things I've deviated from your process is adding granular mycorrhizal inoculant underneath where the transplant is going because I'm planting in grow bags with a potting mix that doesn't have the beneficial fungal contents included and the other is that I'm going with fish hydrolysate instead of emulsion since it is more nutrient dense.
Excellent explanation and video. Your strawberries are beautiful.
Thanks! They'll be flowering soon.
Your videos are awesome. You should really look into JADAM methods of making your own liquid fertilizer concentrates. Cost is basically zero (grass, water, leaf mold soil from the woods) and it works fantastic! Keep up the good work!
I appreciate it! Believe me, if I had more free time, I'd experiment even more than I already do. Every year, I try to branch out a little more.
thank you! I have some kale seedlings that I winter sowed and they are stalled out couch potatoes! However, I will keep tending them with your tips to become Olympic athletes!
Thanks for the motivation. By the way, your suggestion for better and stronger lighting along with a fan has made my seedlings stronger. Thanks
Excellent! I'm glad to hear your seedlings are doing well.
Thank you so much! Great video!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Learn something every time I watch you! You are great. Please keep on teaching us gardening students👍 Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
Great info!
Thanks, great video like always 👍
You're welcome!
thank u for sharing, very detailed thats why i like watching your videos
I appreciate it! Thanks for watching!
Excellent! BTW, my tomatoes love grass clippings 2-3 inches thick as mulch.
Good video, thanks!
You’re welcome!
Great video! Very methodical and useful information😊 My garden is growing fast, the planning is getting ridiculous, but im loving it. All tricks are useful 😅
Now is crunch time! We spend all winter preparing for the mass planting that happens in such a short period of time 😆
@@TheMillennialGardener Yes, it is intense. I live in Sweden so my last frost day is in the first week of june... 😅 With snow risk in mid october!
