Просмотров 1402 месяца назад
I live in the San Antonio area of Texas and have been trying to grow blueberries in the ground. Unfortunately it has been a failed experiment and has only yielded a few blueberries over the year. My advice is to stick to containers.
I let this compost sit for 1 year. Here’s the result

How tall do these get?
Mine is about 6’ right now.
Nice assortment!
Thank you
just saw a video from last year and jumped to here! lots of progress! really encourages me for my start up garden here in SA. thanks for sticking to posting! great updates and thorough. congrats on your journey so far.
Thank you for watching and the words of encouragement.
Thank you for starting this. I'll be following from the Jefferson area off Babcock and Fredericksburg rd
Thanks for watching
How far can you dig down before you hit limestone/rock?
It varies in my yard. It’s somewhere between 6”-24”. Thank you for the comment.
@@sanantoniogardening lucky you! I am lucky to get 2-4” of soil up north of canyon lake! I am adding loads of dirt n compost to my backyard, then building raised beds
That’s the way to do it. If you have a lot of time you can also drop tons of wood chips and mix with coffee grounds. In a few years you’ll have a thick layer of top soil.
Omg... I'm in Schertz also! My plan is to get rid of 99% of my front lawn... it's been crispy since May 😜. Just found your channel so I'm going to see what I can find here to help that process out.
Thanks for the comment neighbor. I have gotten rid of 95% of my front so far. My plan is to add some more drought tolerant win fall and will make some videos.
I think I’m your neighbor
Howdy neighbor
Nitrogen for vegetative Phosphorus for fruits
Thanks for the comment
Thank you for sharing
Thanks for watching
Wow 🤩 everything is looking great!!
Thanks. It’s slowly coming together.
Aww man!!! 😆 I just put one in the ground 2 weeks ago. I guess I’ll dig it up lol
I would recommend putting it in a pot
Hey AJ, thank you. Would you have any starter nodes i can buy to start a cane plot here in texas?
Hi. I bought my starters off Etsy but some friends told me I could have went to an Asian supermarket and found some pieces. I would recommend checking out a market near you.
Wouldnt this compost become very acidic since both coffee grounds & oak leaves are acidic?
Thank you for the comment. I’m not sure about the acidity. I’ll have to do a ph test next time.
I love your round bed! I have extreme dry heat in summer. I tried planting potatoes in part shade and they did not do well. When I planted them in full sun they did much better. This surprised me since our heat gets up to 115°. I start everything as soon as the danger of frost has passed.
Thank you for the comment and best of luck in your garden.
Wow 🤩 everything looks great! Your sugar cane is growing beautifully ❤
Thank you
An, you the man bro. You’ve always been an inspiration. I too am a compost nerd. I picked it up on my time in Oregon. Now my compost is a year to year endeavor in Las Vegas. I’m such a nerd that I moved my compost from house to house in Las Vegas. I use red worms in my compost and they proliferate and break down the new organics I constantly add. You’re brilliant brother.
AJ, not An, lol
Thanks brother. I appreciate the kind words and have enjoyed watching you grow and evolve in many ways. It makes me proud to see that and any compost nerd is a good friend of mine. Keep up the good work and post some of your stuff online so I can see what you have going on. Thanks again. My best to you and the family.
Hopefully you wore a mask while cutting those rail road ties! Very very toxic
Thanks for the comment. I should have worn a mask but unfortunately I didn’t.
Never stack anything like he did ! Right though the back window.
Thanks for highlighting that. You are right. I should have been more careful or have a headache rack installed.
Poor danger ranger haha
Thank you for the comment
Ass
Awesome! Can’t wait to see the finished project 😊
I’ll keep you posted.
I would have offered that cool old railroad tie wood up to local woodworkers or gardeners for their creative projects instead of wasting it at the dump. A good power wash and come creative cutting could have turned it into some really neat raised beds or yard art!
Thanks for the comment. Most of the wood was rotted and not much to salvage.
The retaining wall was there holding all that dirt away from the oak tree if you allow dirt to get around that root collar that tree will rot and die
Thank you for the comment. I am replacing the retaining wall with stones.
This is awesome! 💚💚💚 We need to make one too, with all the debris around here. Best food for all your flowerbeds!
Thanks. I’m hoping it does wonders in the garden.
Looking nice! Everything is popping back up!
Thanks. Love this time of year
Just a correction: THAN not then
Thank you
It looks amazing!!!
Thanks. I’m very happy with the result.
Awesome!! 🎉
I lived in Schertz, Tx until I was 10 and our neighbor had a pomegranate tree - I loved eating them ... they also had a huge mulberry that's fruit was delicious - - Thanks for prodding my memory
Thanks for watching and the nice comment. I’m glad I could bring back some good memories.
I'm here im San Antonio as well and curious how yours has faired. My two gran nain plants dont look like they made it despiye trying to insulate them over the winter, but I have two blue javas on the way.
Thanks for the comment. Mine died back over the winter. Waiting to see if it bounces back. I’ll keep you posted
@sanantoniogardening I'm curious if it made it through the winter? Any updates?? Thnks
Thank you for the comment. The banana plant grew back no problem. Thanks for asking
That happened to me but with my chickens by my dogs
Thank you for the comment
How did you find the permaculture designer? And were they helpful with local species and Texas natives?
Thank you for the comment. Here is an overview of how I did it. How my #texasgarden was designed ruclips.net/video/3LOI1TAloho/видео.html
Wow 🤩 very nice garden beds…you’re an awesome handyman. Spring prepping is always fun. Can’t wait to see how the sugar can grows here. Great video 😊
Thank you
Where did you get your hay?
Tractor supply
I recently put out some bowls of 31% strength muriatic acid and the armadillos have left my property.
Thank you for the comment.

Rabbits in San Antonio?
That is a red tail hawk!
Yes you are correct. Thank you for the comment.
Thanks for helping our fellow mammal!
Thank you for the comment
Hawk, not eagle
Yes you are correct. Thank you for the comment
Nice seeing you AJ! Your cabbage looks great! Spring time will be here soon. Your soil is looking amazing! Thanks for sharing 😊
Thanks. Next year I will do a bunch of cabbage. I’ve been so busy with other projects. I haven’t devoted much time to the garden, but as the weather warms up, I’ll switch gears. Hope you’re doing well.
Just curious as to which plants you put in that area. I have an area in my front yard along the sidewalk that needs drought tolerant plants.
Thank you for the comment. I planted dessert sage and senecio succulent. When the weather warms up I will probably put my potted pineapple out there too.
Some people hate the fabric so much! I have used it many times in different projects, and yes, it is not eternal, but holds for many years. Right now I'm experimenting with cardboard, but I wouldn't use it in a space like here, I think you are doing the best option. It's looking great!!
Thanks for the comment. I usually use cardboard when I’m building new vegetable garden beds and it works great.
Where is this

Same. Zone 10a here and still growing peppers. 😊
That’s great. Thanks for sharing
Awesome! Mine are still producing, too! 🌶️ cheers!
Great to hear
That's going to look great there. Thank you for the shout-out. Merry Christmas!
Thanks for the inspiration and Merry Christmas to you and the family.
Great information 👍🏼
Thank you for the comment
I am having a really hard time growing veggies here.
Same here. It’s a lot of trial and error for me.
That’s cool! Can’t wait to see if it takes
Thanks. I’ll keep you posted
