those peat pucks look like a good setup, Ive seen them before but have yet to use some myself.
super easy and simple and they work great! My favorite way to start seeds....lol havn't sold my dad on them yet
I think they restrict the roots, might have been my technique though.
I hate those seed pucks. They do not decompose. I have found them two years later, intact in the dirt.
Just bought the jiffy greenhouse tonight. First time ever gardening. We built a raised garden bed earlier today. Super excited!! I learned so much from your videos re the jiffy greenhouse!! Thank you so much!!!
Best 24 minutes that I did not think that I had ever spent!! You’ve given me the confidence to start my seeds inside again, After an epic fail two years ago Thank you so much new subscriber.🙂
You’ve been an inspiration to me. My own channel is growing thanks to you and other rural youtubers! ❤️
My Cluttered Garage I subbed to you 👍🏻
YES! This is a great RUclips gardening lesson. I have shared it with friends. BTW I do like your chicken coops. I am ordering Jiffy Peat Puffs today. Thank you for the blue tape tip---BRILLIANT!
Keep it up
Lots of little things I've learned through the years...glad this helped ya...remember..dont' over water!
Bought my peat pods/pucks yesterday. Getting ready to start my seeds. Definitely not my first garden but I love watching and learning. Never stop learning!!
Planting seeds: One for the mouse, One for the crow, One to rot and one to grow.
I got mine today at Walmart! Thanks for this video!
Have used these for years. Best system I have found
Loving your gardening videos. Just started my hand at gardening (as an adult) in the past couple years and I’ve got a lot of learning to do. Thanx!
That is a new way of growing crops since we did it decades ago differently and it worked for us. The system looks nice and I wish you all the best with your gardening this year too.
Good morning Josh and wifey. Hopefully ya,ll are doing very well. Stay safe out there and stay healthy.
Good content, Josh. We have some small gardens here in suburbia. They were defaulted to flowers over the last few years after my attempt at vegetables was not very successful. Done right, it appears there are always possibilities. Thanks for your guidance.
Great video Josh, those peat pucks are a super and mess free way to start seeds, awesome!
Jeffy pet picks is what I like. In the past I have put my seed starting mix into a large bowl. Then I add water a little at a time and mixing it like I was making biscuts.then I puf the moist soil I trays.
I know how to start my plants but I still watched because I can always learn something new 🙂🌱💚 thanks for the video
I get these things at season end each year for the next year when they're on clearance. Save your money guys and store them up. New off the shelf doesn't mean better than new out of your storage room.
Another interesting and informative video. Thanks for sharing this information on starting seeds.
Hope can see how the light work in the next video!!!!!!!loooooool
Great video! The one thing my neighbor discovered is that the outside netting needs to be removed because they don’t breakdown as they say it will. My neighbor used them 3 years ago and they’re still picking them out of the soil. They also found the plants become root bound. The next year they removed the netting before planting and no more issues. Maybe Jiffy can use another method to fix this issue.
For the plug trays hydrate the potting soil before you fill them. Just add water when it's in the bin and leave it overnight. It's a lot easier just needs to be damp.
Gardening great way to reduce stress especially in these times
Loving these videos! My first garden since I was a kid 35 years ago helping my dad. Wife loved your cup tip and pucks next year for sure. Thanks man.
I wish I could show you pictures of our small green house. Your channel is awesome
Thanks for giving us great content during this wierd time. And thanks for the hard work you put into these videos.
My plan is to keep cranking them out brotha..this hasn't slowed us down on the farm
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer I'm very glad to hear that you and your family are doing well. Stay safe out there my brother.
Good on ya Josh. I user tweezers on those small seeds.
That a real good video on planting and starting a garden. I really like those pods. Thanks for the video Josh. 👍👍👍❤️
Its so cool. I did my pucks last week for the first time and now u made a video . thanks good video
Very good video. Very informative. First time doing the jiffy peat pots.
HI:) from Northern Ontario. Last year pucks and seeds...ok; but lots didn't take. You most awesome video quickly showed me my mistakes. I guess I drowned the little buggers lol. Many thanks for the info and have subscribed. You are an excellent, personable teacher. Totally enjoyed the video. Stay Safe, Stay Happy *****
Very helpful for me. Got a peat puck package and don't know what to do with it until now 😂
New trick for my seeds. Thanks
New subscriber here btw
Ah ha those pucks are a great idea. I have used the other tray and they are a bit messy. Great bunch of tips. Keep them coming.
My Tomatoes, Peppers, and Brussels are up. Started Parsley, Basil, and Oregano yesterday.
You are a wealth of knowledge.
Thank you thank you so much for posting this. with everything going on this is a pleasant project to work on and I am so thankful for you sharing your knowledge and demonstrating.
Dude you make farming fun! Great presentation
Make sure to check the seed packet for the planting depth. Some seeds, spearmint for example, don't need to be covered at all. They need light to germinate.
Hey Josh thank you for the video I enjoyed it. And you did a good job explaining it to everyone including me there thank you so much
I grew seed transplants for 25 years. You can fill the tray with your water solution and the loose seed starter peat mix will wick the water much more evenly than trying to drench from above and will be much cleaner. Once the tray wicks you can supplement light watering on the surface.
Love the pucks. Just transplanted a bunch of yellow squash grown in them. Don’t know how we will keep up with all that squash but we will try.
Those peet pods are a great idea! Thanks for the ideas!
You are so welcome!
Dude, I love the cup trick with the seed starter dirt.
I learned something new with that..
I put a little warm water in the container with the dirt before I add it to the tray, the cup trick should still work.
Cool.i learn something every time I watch your videos.keep up the excellent work.woooo.....
just what I needed!!! Thanks for your help!!
I'm amazed how anything can grow in nature how fussy these plants are
Great video! I've never had success starting plants from seeds until I started using the Jiffy pods and now they're growing like gangbusters, including heirloom peppers that are supposedly difficult to germinate
I always say I will remember what I planted. But I always forget. Always label. 🌺
Good explanation. I have made all the mistakes you mentioned. Had to learn the hard way. 🌺
Awesome video I started germinating mine about a week ago also have the tomato and squash in the ground
Thanks for the info...you make it so simple......
pop sickle sticks work great
Josh, have you thought about buying some used float bed trays and building a small greenhouse? Seems like it would be more cost efficient for you. My grandfather always raised his own tobacco plants and left room for some fruits and veggies. Just an idea.
This is how many people love Stoney Ridge Farm 👇
“time to get started planting seeds”.......lol josh up here in Ontario Canada we still have 3’ of snow. 👍✌️❤️🇨🇦😂
U are great sir you make a good videos about farm
Awesome video like always! Newer to your channel but already love it. Cause of you I bought 26 baby Lakeshore Eggers from Meyers hatchery!
Welcome aboard!
Stoney Ridge Farmer any tips for the new baby chicks coming in? Hoping all goes well but first time so wanna do things as perfect as possible
Good comparisons of two different type tray systems. You forgot to mention when you use the grow lights and how to use them. Guess I'm real excited to see those seeds become plants. Lol
Looks like a pretty cool system.
Nice job! Great info!!!
Hi...... Thank you 🎥👍👍👍
Hey josh I have a chicken tractor that I built just like ur wooden one and I don’t have any skeeys on back or a rope to pull it with either so it’s hard to move by hand lol I just took a 90 horsepower kubota tractor with the box blade and pushed it with that lol
Great vid
I’m trying to do a small garden. But I’m a beginner beginner lol 😂 so we will shall see how it goes.
Bought them from Jiffy, thanks!
When starting seed with seed starter soil just fill tray with some water so bottoms of seed tray are touching and it will absorb the water they need, no mess.
I'll keep using the pucks...they work awesome for me...I get what ur saying for sure...so much easier to use the pucks
After looking at your videos I also have a dream but I do not want money for my college. I have learn from your videos and I want to talk to you about this
Ok. I keep asking this question but I never seem to get a proper answer. How long after germination can you leave a seedling (pepper plant, squash etc) in the a pod/Puck until you have to either pot it up or plant it out? 2 weeks, 3 weeks? Thanks. Great video.
awsome video....keep up the great work
Thanks, will do!
How you doing bud .I truly enjoy your vids I know I say that all the time but I say what's true but the best part is I love learning more about the gardens and everything you do ..I did fencing for 3years and I still learned morefrom this channel just for an example .but I do have a question how do you make sure your soil is at the right p.h level or acidic level is correct for what you grow .and or what's the right p.h. and acidic level for basic veggies or for anything ..?but again I love the vid and godbless bud
Adding 1 or 2 drops of dish washing liquid to ya water will help dry soil absorb the water almost instantly. Soil conditioning
Jiffy makes a tray specifically for veggies.... the peat discs are larger ☺️
I have found...and so will you...the larger pucks are not necessary and are more prone to rot and mold/mildew
Love the flag in the back! USA
Its 1:20 am and now i really want some chocolate donuts!
Food crisis at US, all of people buying some starter kit by paper pots (blender recycle paper pots to making paper pots starters; using blenders and pots to made these); finding green peppers 🫑🌶️🥒🍅🫚🥔🍠🥜🫘
You should moisten the seed starter mixture before you put it in the trays
You're only 30 miles away from me! Would be cool if I could come get some hands on experience. I'm wanting to start a farm and be a first generation farmer.
Fill the bottom tray and let it soak in just like the pucks. I actually like this dirt better
Thank you!
I definitely like the peat puck method. But I did not catch what you mean - would it be better to remove or break the peat puck bag when you plant them into the ground so the plants don't become root-bound as their roots try to rip out of that bag or do the peat bags very quickly decompose? I have some very special sport perennial seeds I've never planted before and I have no idea how strong their roots are.
Good video
Can you start squash in the 72 pellet kits, and do you have to transplant up to larger containers before putting any of the veggies (including tomatoes) into the garden, using the smaller peat pellets?
You did the same video on the peat pucks last year Josh, how'd those turn out? Also, are you planting items to sell at a farmer market, or just for you and Mrs. SR?
I watched your chicken tractor video. Two questions, how do you keep prediters from digging under? Also where do the chickens roost and sleep?
How much does the Pete pucks run Josh that's a cool way to plant?
For the hex trays, why not just pour the water in the bottom trays and let it soak up into the peat?
LOL....there is water in the bottom of the trays...and it rained on them all night lol....still has dry soil in the trays! That stuff must be made of scotch water repellent for car seats lol
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer lolol
I find that if you moisten the soil in the bucket before filling the trays, it works well. Just add water to bucket and mix. just a suggestion.
I mix my grow med in hot water.its a real jump start.
So I have the jiffy pods and I was going to start bringing the plants out today but of course it rained. I went to check on them and the cucumber started lifting the greenhouse top up! Almost overnight they grew fast. Is there a simple solution until I have the garden ready?
You said butt fertilizer 😂😂giggle giggle🙃
You got lables in your's I have to get popsicle sticks for lables and a little pack of nutrition i just got the tray with the pelits
Could you please make a review video on the Cub Cadet Challenger mx 750
At what point do you stop leaving the top greenhouse tray on the sprouts while growing indoors? Do you wait until they’ve sprouted to a certain point or shortly after they sprout ? Thank you!!!
Hi @StoneyRidgeFarmer! I've watched all your seed starting videos (as well as liking them all & subscribing!)... as a newbie raised bed gardener it seems as though I still have a question to clarify-- after I plant the seeds and cover them lightly, is it necessary to spritz water after we're done before covering? Or the water soaked up is enough? Hope to hear from you!
For some reason we did not have good luck with the peat moss deals...the plants did not grow very strong.
Do the pucks have any chemicals in it? Is it all organic?
Liked this video :)
Are the lights for growing plants ok for brooding???
Do you have to water them everyday?
do i need to water the pods again as i wait for the seed to sprout ?
Also if you are using city water you might want to let the chlorine evaporate for half an hour or so ... Just saw you made similar video 3 years ago ... Love red onions ... I have a couple 24 inch pots dedicated to chives ... Get pulled and divided every 3 years ... Each one would fill 2 of those plug trays ... Many gardeners say transplant out after second or third set of true leaves ... What ever happened to the straw hat ???
Started mine last week. Importing topsoil for a good seed bed. Clay soil at the obx is no good 😂😂😂
nice videp
Does this effect the amount that you can water them once they plants are in the garden?
