Trashcan Root Cellar Vent Update
It's Week 3 in the garden and in this video we'll take a look together on whether the vent I installed on my trashcan root cellar worked.
Last year, the straw I had used to protect the vegetables had seemed a bit damp from trapped moisture so last year I installed a vent in the lid to allow the moisture to escape. I'll open the root cellar and inspect the bedding I used as insulation and whether it helped protect the crop I stored there.
Step by step, week by week, I'll show you the process for growing vegetables -- from preparing your own seed starting mix that's much cheaper than store-bought mix, to sowing the seeds, and then watching their progress over time. You will get a real-time v...

Producing a Potato Paradise: Harvesting Spuds at the Victory Garden!
Looking good. Something either ate all my garlic greens or it all just died back from the cold...I'm thinking something ate it. It was up about 3" and now its all gone...no idea. I planted music too so I hope it comes back. Your onions are off to a good start too:)
Cool glad the red ones came up, I still havent started yet but this weekend should be the time to get my chili and paprika in
I'm so surprised how viable the old seed was. I'd have to say it was about +50% germination. I was expecting 10%. And it's a tad too early for me to put pepper seed down yet. Soon. Soon.
Garlic and onions are looking good bud I had to cut mine back yesterday I cut them down to 3 inches they germinated in about 5 days
Wow. Yours are really taking off. When did you sow them? Mine started in about 5 days too, more were up after a week, and then about 10 days or so the majority had sprouted. I'm still getting sprouts starting now after two weeks.
@ sowed January 1st does garden grown groceries have a Facebook page?
@@car507 I do not. I'm horrible at social media other than doom-scrolling through X
@ lol same here I would have shown you the progress of the onions
I just got one awhile back because I save scraps on my counter but this time if yr. Our rotation composter is always froze shut. So I do this and dump it right into my garden pots outside
Great idea! I just slowly make my way across my garden beds, adding a batch at a time. I really, really prefer this unit to saving them in a can or container. Once it's full I turn it on and forgert about it till I'm ready to begin te new batch.
I agree about shipping on seeds. Makes me often change my mind about placing the order. You have a great selection going in
A couple of my friends from my garden club use them. Happy composting:)
Thanks! It's not a perfect solution for kitchen waste but I was surprised that I actually use it every day. At least from my wife's perspective, the best thing is there are no more fruit flies and gnats hanging around my compost container.
@@gardengrowngroceries the gardeners pest..fruit flies
I notice you didn't say inexpensive
Lol! I don't want to lie. But you can get $100 off!
I hope they turn out great!
Thank you! Me too!
Here we go! Last year I did an onion experiment. I sowed some in seed starting mix and some in potting soil. Some in deep pots some in shallow. The results were very clear on the soil not so much on the depth of planter,. I have videos on it, when I sowed, when I planted and when I harvested. I'm definitely using potting mix this year. My potting mix onions were so much bigger.
@@capecodcottagegarden I remember that! Next year! lol
Started mine on the first also, let us know when you plan on transplanting into the garden
@@car507 I should be transplanting them the first week of March.
@ awesome! That’s what I was thinking thank you
So excited to see how these turn out! I'm in the same state so your channel is my research for my garden haha
@@juliannacapriotti1676 you’re really putting the pressure on me! At least you get to see all the things not to do. 😀
@@juliannacapriotti1676 I’ve been doing the same for onions first time trying to grow them
@@car507 I believe starting from seeds is so much better than from sets. I've done both, and while there is a certain convenience in using sets, There is much greater satisfaction growing from seeds and better results. It's also cheaper, too, though there is more time involved in the process. Good luck with your onions and I hope you update us on your results. Cheers!
@@gardengrowngroceries thanks for the info, mine started germinating yesterday 1/6
Most of my celery goes to waste so maybe I'll try just fresh freezing too. Excited to get started this year!
Thx for the Vid. I also will be growing cerlery this year. I am just way behind on ordering my seeds, sadly alot of seed companys dont ship here to Germany so I will be getting most of my seeds from Kniepenkerl. I want to try my own dried vegtable broth, that will be some of the veggies I will be growing. My grlic is in 5 Growbags, Potatoes will also go in Growbags. Tomatoes and cucumbers will go in a new just ordered hoop house. 4meters by 3 meters by 2 meters. I have 3 standing raised beds that I usually grow my peppers in, I might cut down cause I still have hotsauce, chili oil, chili crisp and chili powder left. Might go for Paprika Powder since we use alot of that in cooking. I also got a sezuan plant that I will plant in the spring. I am trying ginger and turmeric this year. Keep on rolling and see you in the next one!
Hi from Germany, hope you have a great growing year. Love how calm you are in explaining verything. I am redoing my small garden so I dont have that much space as you. I am also growing only what my wife and I will eat. you got a new follower in me,
Welcome! And thank you. I started off very small too, just one 4ft x 4ft bed (about 1.2 meters square if my Google calculator is correct). That soon grew to 3 4x4 beds and then to its current configuration. Last year I was able to get a 15x15 ft community garden plot (~4.5 m2) that I made into 9 4x4 beds. Too many times I've grown not what I necessarily ate, but more "exotic" vegetables because I saw others growing, which was silly. Now I'm trying to focus primarily on just what my wife and I eat, and growing a lot of them so we can store, can, and dehydrate to build a small stockpile to supplement store-bought food. Thanks for watching and following along. Good luck in your garden this year!
First, Thanks for the shout out! That was exciting LOL. If you're looking for a great sweet and delicious cherry tomato I highly recommend Sun Gold. They are my go to cherry. And they are such a pretty orange color. Great for snacking and salads. You have quite a few good veggies on your list. Some of which I added to my "Must buy and try" list like the Blue Lake Pole bean and Honey Nut Squash. I grew the small Butterscotch Butternut Squash this year and it was so good. Happy seed sowing!
I've heard a lot of people praise Sun Golds. I don't know why I've never tried them. I also think they should develop a butterscotch butternut squash that actually tastes like butterscotch. I'd eat that nonstop. Good luck with your garden next year!
@@gardengrowngroceriesI'm with you on the butterscotch butternut squash. Yummmm!😊
If you're looking for a sweet and prolific cherry tomatoe, I suggest sweet millions. It will definitely need a tall trellis to climb. I've been growing it for years, and it never disappoints.
I'm not sure why, but RUclips recommended a response that said "I have a whole section on tomatoes in my new book!" lol Unfortunately, I have no book, but i also haven't heard of sweet millions before. I'll have to look into them. Thanks!
Great idea! I would probably cover the top with an insect net before covering with the lid to help prevent insects. The straw you pull out will be good compost next spring. I'm not sure, i live in the south, so the ground may be too warm here.
I'd guess it probably is too warm. But you do have the benefit of growing things that we can't do up north. And I did use the straw last year as mulch in the garden and let it compost into the soil. The lid is pretty tight, so I'm not too worried about insects, but I added a vent to the top to try and control moisture and covered the opening with some screening material to stop bugs and other unwanted pests from getting in.
My garlic is at a similar stage as yours, I planted Music variety for the first time...fingers crossed and hey, what the heck is a garlic bubil? LOL
Oh, you have to catch up! They're like actual garlic seed. If you let a bulb go to flower, it develops hundreds of tiny garlic cloves. When you plant them they turn into what are called rounds, little round garlic bulbs. You plant them again and they should turn into full garlic bulbs. Could take up to two years for them to mature. ruclips.net/video/vK8aUqO1E8k/видео.html
@@gardengrowngroceries Cool. Ill check it out:)
I planted my garlic in October they are about 8 inches tall I hope they make it through the winter this my first time trying garlic out
You should be okay. The first year I planted mine it was on Columbus Day because I heard that was a rule of thumb on planting dates. They grew like yours and survived fine
How high can you stack those and them still be stable? Thanks
@@lorenbush8876 I wouldn’t put them 10 levels high, but certainly 4 or 5 trays on top of one another is stable. They were surprisingly sturdy and they come in a number of colors: gray, tan, green, and I think terra cotta
Hey bud this has nothing to do with this video but I watched your onion vids I’m in Bergen county when do you start onion seeds and when do you put them out thanks in advance
@@car507 howdy neighbor! I start my onions January 1 as a fun thing to do to kick off the new year. I would say though anytime in January or even February is fine. Good luck with your garden!
@ thank you and around when do you plant them in ground
Onions make a flower too on the second year so leave a few in the ground over winter.. You can harvest seeds out of the dried flower and plant them early the following Feb inside. They can grow overcrowded until planted outside when winter is over.
@@PatC. I’ve thought about doing that. I’ve done it with carrots and beets but not onions. Maybe I’ll try that this year. Thanks!
Did you say you are in zone 7A? I'm in 7B/8A and when I dig potatoes, I pick the best one and toss it back in the hole, cover & let it overwinter. It almost always grows the next growing season. Another way you can propagate potatoes is to put them in a warm location on a bed of straw. Give them 12 to 15 hours of light daily. They will pop out eyes. When the eyes are close to an inch long you can pop the eye off and set it in a little pot of soil. It will root and make you a new potato plant. I have gotten as many as 60 eyes off one potato. That is some super propagation! I usually put 8 or 10 potatoes on the bed of straw and get a lot of plants to set out around the middle of March.
add a vent and drill holes on bottom of can
This wouldn't work here in Chicago. Our frost line is four feet.
I used to grow it; and many other vegetables, before the local water company decided to bill not on use but on having access. As for horseradish...deep loamy soil with semi shade..and when grating it for a sauce....use vinegar last when you have the heat you want. Vinegar cuts off the heat at that point....like graphite rods in a reactor.
Thanks for the tips. I may try to grow it again next year. And yes, the heat from horseradish can hit your nostrils like a nuclear bomb going off lol!
Good job
damn man, we make notes in the same way🥳 Good job on the parsnips! Any soil amendments on where you grew them? Butternuts are meant to be one of the harder squashes to ripen up, so always opting for another variety. Thanks a lot as always dude 🙏🙏
I was also disappointed with my potato harvest in Alberta this year. I planted both in ground and in pots. In ground did better but I’d prefer to grow in buckets for a variety of reasons so I’m going to keep trying! Let’s just say, I’m really glad my family isn’t relying on my garden for survival this year.
@@sharonritchie6365 lol I’m right there with you on that. Next year may be the first year I don’t plant my potatoes in buckets. Since I have all new beds at my Victory Garden community garden plot, I’m dedicating several beds just to potatoes. They will mostly be russets . Maybe I’ll grow some Yukons and Red Nordlands in buckets still. We’ll see. But good luck to you and your garden in the Great White North!
Big or small, they're all good ☺
@@TheyCallMeSir_H I’m making the best of it. I have them curing now and we’ll get one good meal at Thanksgiving out of them. Better than nothing!
This year I didn't grow any because my harvest last year looked like yours this year. I'm going try again next year 😉
@@gardentours all we can do is keep trying.
We keep growing, its all helpful to our grocery bills ❤ 😊
Every little bit counts! Also, sweet motorhome ride! That's a goal of mine to travel around the country. On my long and growing to-do list is to build a slide-in pop-up camper for my pickup truck. Since my "job" is an online one that can be done from anywhere, I could still work while traveling. I'm envious of you. 😄
@@gardengrowngroceries Live your dreams! 🥰😇
You and me on similar tracks. I fought the good fight with one a couple months ago. Great green bean harvest 😊
I've since discovered it's actually newlyweds on their honeymoon. They're a wily pair but next year I'll be building new defenses against them. I'll be putting cages over all of my beds.
I'm with you.sweet potatoes have been disappointing, but I'm going to try again. Your doing a great job, keep it going. As you said "3rd times the charm".
Thank you! I'm more hopeful than I was that next year will be better. That's the thing with gardening: we can always come back the following a year, a little bit smarter. Eventually we get it right. Thanks for watch.
Thanks so much! 😊
@@Thankful_. you’re welcome! Now my harvest wasn’t successful because I think I left them in the buckets too long and the root rotted. Although the plants were really robust and I had drainage I don’t think it was sufficient. I do mean to try it again, maybe next year. Cheers!

HEy I'm from Union County. I'd just like to share this info about mice control for people who don't want to kill them... There is a recipe for birth control for rodents. The main ingredient is cottonseed meal. Ace Hardware sells it for $8 for a 3 lb bag. It is normally used as a garden fertilizer but there are studies that show it makes both male and female mice much less fertile. Mix peanut butter into the cottonseed meal, just enough to coat it to attract the mice with the peanut butter scent. Then leave it where the mice can find it. Also on Amazon they sell green plastic traps that don't kill the mice. They work really good baited with peanut butter. Several vendors sell them but there is one that makes the trap a few inches longer than the rest... get that one... it is best.
Howdy neighbor! Thanks for the suggestions! Humane solutions are always a good option.
Curious to see if it works.
What’s that crazy jungle music behind you?
Lol! That's tame compared to what it sounds like around here during the summer, especially around holidays.
The angle is not essential, it's just easier to pull out if the plant is old and the roots deep 😊
@@squirrelgang965 thanks! My horseradish crop was a failure so I will have to try again
Perhaps the young taters rotted in the moist soil ..or the grass choked out the harvest .. cud be many reasons .. Keep working at it ..
👏👏👏👏👏👏 Applause for them butes :D
As a young man love fishing and burying a container for night crawlers and it was working great until a drenching rainfall and my container came floating up onto the top of the hole full of water.. Maybe next spring you might have a special video coming.
Thank you so much for sharing. I have recently been toying with the idea of using large enclosed ceramic vessels as in-ground root cellars. Metal may be the way to go instead.
Nice work, I am thinking of doing sfg on part of my plot as well. Is there any reason you are not using Mel’s mix (equal part peat/compost/vermiculate) for the beds? Also how will you be amending the plant spacing as you won’t have the full square foot for some of it. Look forward to seeing the results. Andy
Lack of vermiculite in bulk quantities. Yeah, I could have bought some online, but I'm impulsive, so I winged it and used what I had on hand. I may buy some online over the winter and mix it in before planting in the spring. My garden beds at home were made with Mel's mix, but after a year or two, the vermiculite kinda vanishes. So even if I don't add it, I'm not too worried. As for the spacing, also not sweating it. If I plant carrots, that are 16 to a sf, for example, I'll just shift them slightly away from the edge. Anything with fewer plants per sf shouldn't be impacted. I also plan on outlining each square with twine just for the visual appeal. Cheers, Rich
