When i plant mine i take the end of a mop handle or some other kind of handle and put a hole in the ground where i want each plant. Then i drop the plants in the hole, then get on my knees and push the dirt around each one. I get on my knees because all that bending over is hard on the back. That works for me.
Those transplants are beautiful! I'm 71 (and only 5' tall), so straddling the row isn't easy for me; and kneeling down like some people do is impossible for me... When I was transplanting a 50' row (of about 360 plants in the landscape fabric) I would use a Stand 'N Plant planter, modified with a 1-1/2" piece of PVC wedged in the tube to accommodate transplants from either the 128 or 200 trays. Worked slick! ~ Kir in Tennessee
Nice! Good to know there are options out there. I really wanted to highlight in this video how to keep this really simple and not use any extra gear. Of course everyone's context is different and I'm glad you found a decent workaround.
Great tip Ron!
Thank you for the information for old people. I have a bad hip. This will be perfect. God bless you.
hey ron where abouts are you in tennesse? we are headed that way this year and excited to start a garden
With the paper pot system, you have to transplant when the root system is too weak. Maybe mid-season works, but then it is too hot for lettuce. Richard Perkins made a video on this which explains this problem with the paper pot system. I was so much to switching to the paper pot system, but after watching his video, not so much anymore.
Very good video Josh.
Great tips in this. I appreciate how you stress, not all situations are the same. Each person needs to learn their way in their zone.
Absolutely! Context is everything. Got to do what works for you
Great lesson, Jess over @RootsandRefuge has taught that if we haven't acquired our homestead yet to turn our waiting room in to a classroom, you are a big part of my classroom!!! TY so much for all your great teachings!!!
You're welcome. Glad my videos have been instructional and helpful for you. Thanks for watching!
Hopefully you have your homestead 🥳. But if not and you have a backyard, you could get started small scale. Even 1/20 acre would produce large amounts of greens and veggies and start your skill building.
You said it, the secret to transplanting greens is having a strong root on the plant. I’ve transplanted when they were about an inch and my success rate was horrible. You can be super careful and the lettuce would breakdown or not survived the move. Excellent video and thanks for sharing.
You're welcome. Thanks for watching!
Super productive there Josh..
Great video, gonna transplant my lettuces tomorrow. Thanks for the tips. Watching from estonia
GREAT LOOKING PLANTS. LOVE THE SOUND BITE TOO!!
I love transplanting on a cloudy day after hardening off in the spot I want them planted in .....I do water a tiny bit b4 if the ground has no moisture..... carefully water in after too or planting b4 rain....but be careful a big strong rain can knock everything down.....just fix a bit after if this happens if they are strong they will recover....I've had one row of seeds get washed not straight anymore lol but it's only happend once.....
Great idea. Thanks for shearing your experience with us .
👍
Good transplanting tips Josh thanks
You're welcome. Thanks for watching!
Great video! I love the tape measure down the bed!
Paper pots ARE fast and all but I hate the paper they leave all over the farm (decompose in 1 season my ass) and the roots, especially w lettuce, don't go much wider or deeper than the paper pot once planted 🤔.
Love that you can do that in this time of year!
Use a toboggan to put the trays on.
You can pull it along in the pathways. And have more than I tray handy.
Wow! YOU are a hard worker...hope you have someone looking after you !!! God bless you brother. Appreciative family of 7 in Nova Scotia.(ps, we love your videos!!!)
lettuce start pipe. DIY no bending over.
Another great video! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience!
Such great instructional videos. I wish I had these starting out as they would have helped with a lot of the subtleties that you don't find in others. Great pace and content. Keep up the teaching "Teech"
man i just need to say you are awesome man thank you so much for this video
you can make the holes standing up or even buid yourself a gadget to make 4 holes at a time. there are also transplanters, I got one for 35€
Great video.thanks for the content!!
You're welcome. Thanks for watching!
You are so inspirational
Mr. Sattin, what is that delightful row measuring tool you used at 5:59 to get a straight row? I definitely need one!
I wish my garden look like that...
great content , thanks for the tips too.
Great info, very helpful! Thanks
Brilliant Josh.
Your stick is much better than the orange plastic stick that comes with it:-) I refuse to lose the orange stick! I'll use a long straight stick. I used one to fish my black Molly out the tank this morning. Luckily she gave (4) surviving babies. She delivered (7). PetSmart has the awesome (14) day guarantee. My PetGuard is coming tomorrow:-)
The little stick that came with my measuring tape broke a while ago. I am using a small piece of rebar.
@@JoshSattinFarming Oh! Rebar is much stronger than the lil plastic orange stake.
Great channel 🌸
Thank you!
Great info, thanks
You're welcome. Thanks for watching!
This is awesome 👌
I did mine mid day fingers crossed lol
Josh, looks like you have LP smartside on your home, is that correct? Looks like it's failing near the bottom, is that correct? Looking into siding options here in NJ and was watching your content and noticed the siding in this video.
Great video. Thanks
You're welcome. Thanks for watching!
Looks good. How do you manage the watering. Do you know run dripline down and back? Thanks for video. I am in the high desert so need to irrigate.
Josh, I've made the mistake of over planting 350 lambs foot seeds into an 18x12 tray, they have started to germinate, when is it safe to start to start thinning out and transplant on
Hey Josh! which nozzle did you use for your wobblers to water 6 beds?
Tray popper outter will save your life! Definitely worth the 10 or 20 bucks
I would be making some type of trolley to sit on and push along so you are not bent over like that
What do you use to protect lettuce from pest?
good transplanting tips
I would love to know how you would tackle slugs if you have them in the numbers I do. I try to tackle them organically with organic slug pellets, beer traps and bran and some woolly slug deterrent.
I don't have very many slugs so I can't really give you any advice. Sorry.
Vanderlynden Jengold I’m in PAC NW and I can’t grow lettuce due to slugs. They rove in gangs. I just recently found though that I can bait them effectively with chicken feed that’s been watered a bit. Couple handfuls will attract dozens to that spot then hit them with a salt shaker. Works after dark when they come out to feed.
Ducks! Such a wonderful help - also in the PNW, and I grew a ton of lettuce this year. We let the ducks free range and clear the garden areas before we got started. HUGE HELP! Learned in further reading their poo, draws the slugs so, if you had them housed near your gardens, it would help draw them away.
Also, wood chips on the slugs soft bodies aren't so nice, we use a lot of wood chips in walkways and seems to be helping. keeping them replenished in a top dressing keeps them annoyingly prickly.
But....if you do some research and understand that slugs are there to dispose of plants that are sending unhealthy s.o.s. signals (natural clean up crew) , tracking back to what Josh is saying about making certain you have really healthy starts may be your solution. We have been amending our soil for years and still boost our starts with Azomite - broad spectrum minerals that really make a difference!
Thanks
Have you ever considered just using the paperpot style trays and transplanting by hand? I have not looked into it myself so just a thought
Yes, I have considered all of the options. I would have atleast buy the spreader frame, bars, chains and a bunch of trays. I think the dibbler would be very helpful as well. I already have all of the gear that works for me at the moment. It's also super simple. Context is everything. For the size of my farm and the amount of transplanting I do, it's just not worth it for me right now.
Hey Josh, how many hours a day/ how often do you put light on the lettuce when it’s the first few weeks of growing?
Josh, do you have a bunny issue at your farm? If so, how do you deal with them?
What do you mean by hardening off the lettuce?
Thk u
You're welcome. Thanks for watching!
you don't do radish in between the lettuce?
There is no room for interplanting in my lettuce beds.The lettuce completely fills the bed.
This is my first year growing lettuce. I live in Zone 7 (Central VA)....my garden is in full sun all day....are my lettuce going to be okay in full sun?? I thought lettuce needed afternoon/late afternoon shade?? I'm growing mostly romaine...ok, I will wait to hear from you.
How did it go?
Ideally depending on the variety of lettuce , youd want about 6-8hourd of sunlight . Jt dhouldnt be to intense
What kind of sprinkler heads are you using? Looks modified.
The lettuce love a lot of white
Do you grow anything under shade cloth?
How do you protect against animals eating your plants. I have a real problem with groundhogs, deer, and moles. Any suggestions ?
electric fense for deer
traps for moles etc
DR1CHECK you plant an additional 25-40% more crop because you know your going to have uninvited dinner guests when your not looking.
I know it sounds like I’m being a smart a$$ but I’m actually serious and this is what I do on my farm and I’m successful with it. It’s cheaper than putting up fences and buying other gadgets that won’t work. The deer are hungry too, you can’t blame them for trying to survive so just learn to cohabitate and life will be good!
You need to understand that even if you went out and reduced the deer population by 50 on your property, 75 more will migrate into your area within a week or two so the best thing to do is just feed them. I keep a large corn pile about 100 yards from the back edge of my fields and the plan is to try and fill them up before they get to my stuff. If they do come up for Desert after they’ve had their corn , they won’t eat nearly as much as they would without the corn so I just plant extra and plan for 25% loss and it has been working great for the past 2 years. I’m probly really only averaging 10-15% loss so I’m coming out pretty good now
Good luck!
@@1982MCI maybe you never heard of another way. Just shoot/trap them when they come to eat and you get steady fresh meat!
How do you deal with weeds after transplanting?
it is funny watching some of those ' other' youtube channels. It seems like their whole goal is to sell the paperpot transplanter, but then as the years go by and you pay attention, you see they are barely using it, yet still promoting it. There are a few who seem like their entire farm model is just making money selling equipment and courses, and their farms are secondary and really not doing that great. one guy is selling plans for his chicken tractor for 10 dollars (just for the plans) and now he doesn't even do chickens.
How do you handle water pressure and volume for your sprinklers?
Here is a whole video about my irrigation system
ruclips.net/video/87u5PqP7204/видео.html
You rock
With that many lettuce plants how do you stop pests like aphids??
What kind of trays do you use?
128 or 200 cell flats with a 1020 tray (no holes) underneath for bottom watering. Check out this video ruclips.net/video/Ihp3LaQfZgo/видео.html
You need a jab transplanter . The one I use really saves my back.
make video
What kind do you use?
How often would you transplant 4x50ft of lettuce per season for your operation?
It depends on how much lettuce you sell. I usually do a bed every other week or so.
What, no bloopers???😂 Haha, I'll wait... 😉
I know. I've been slacking on the outtakes lately.
Wow. You are fast! How long on average does it take you to plant out an entire row?
I'm not sure. I would have to time it next time.
Where I am right now it’s harvest time I need to save time, rather than planting. So paperpot doesn’t make sense for me yet @soul.farm
Evening!!
How do you grow lettuce in July? Or do you?
I do grow lettuce all year. Here is another video about lettuce that you should check out
ruclips.net/video/Ihp3LaQfZgo/видео.html
Do you buy or make your own compost? If you buy, where do you buy it?
I buy most of my compost. It is made by www.brookscontractor.com/ and I buy it through www.themulchmasters.com/
I know you already mentioned it but I think the cost of a paper pot planter will pay for itself after a couple years when you realize you don't have to be bending over so much as you get older your back will remind you of that and you realize you can spend the time on other productive things
wow, chin afro!
Did he say 3" spacing?
6"
I want seeds of lutuce
I felt sad for the two seedlings that were left out...
Welcome to the back of a construction worker 🥴
This doesn't seem that fast, efficient, or comfortable and is exactly how I imagined transplanting by hand would look. Why not a Paperpot Transplanter exactly? lol
To save 3 000 dollars and not rely on a company to buy new paperpots every season. For instance.
Phteven they are expensive as heck and you have to use their transplanter and their pots. Nope, ain’t happening on my farm either! And I have 10 acres I’m currently growing on and it would not make good financial sense for me either when there are better, cheaper, faster, and more comfortable options out there and I’m talking in the neighborhood of $300-$500 initial one time cost for the equipment and then you use your standard reusable trays that josh had his transplants in so you will not have a recurring charge everytime you need to flip a bed and start new plants like you would with paper pots. Those are one use pots so you always have to order a sizable quantity or order frequently and it’s an unneeded recurring waste of money when the heavy duty 1020 trays can be used for years.
This works great for my farm and is a fraction of the cost of the paper pot monopoly stuff and my equipment is much heavier built and will last decades longer than the toy transplanted.
Sorry, but you asked why exactly and although I can’t answer for josh but I can tell you why many other farms like myself don’t and won’t use it. Since there is only one manufacturer and you have to use their supplies then they can charge what they want and I just feel it is grossly overpriced. But that’s just my opinion and for many farms it’s a perfect tool, each farms needs vary drastically.
Good luck and I hope you find a method/tool that works well for you.
Someone get John an active wife or a kid...400 wow
