Hey! I changed my Channel's name & logo. This video was posted before, so it's still with the old name "1989go". I hope you enjoy watching, thanks for every single like, comment and subscribtion. :)

Hi Julian, for your pot did you use cement powder only or was it concrete?
Concrete is a mixture of sand, some aggregate (small stones) and some cement powder.
It looks like you made it from just cement powder, can you clarify this?
Cheers
Hey, for this project I made my own mix from cement and sand. If you’ve seen that crack on my final planter you know I’ll suggest to also add some aggregate like you’ve said :)
Cheers
One of the simplest but most effective method for making planters. Thank you.
I love this video. You get straight to the point, give clear instructions and show excellent technique. I was looking for a way to make a concrete mold for a large vase and every other video I watched had the people breaking the molds to get the concrete out. I didn't want to do that, because it is so wasteful. Your video showed me how to do it without any waste. Thank you for posting. You earned a new subscriber for sure.
Sadly sometimes I had to break a mold too but here it was easily to avoid and i could easily make a second one. Thanks so much for your kind comment! :)
I,ve been wathcing a lot of videos about making planter of concrete... It all seems so much work and such a heavy project.. This one seems easy enough, i think i will try!
Clever to vibrate it with the sander, your result was much smoother than other concrete pots I have seen.
+Merfnad It's kind of stolen or inspired from the professionals. They use a concrete vibration machine, don't know if you've maybe seen it at a construction site :)
The best and easier concrete planter ever thx for sharing your expertise with us
That sander hack was brilliant!
Thanks for your video, looks really easy . I will try my hand at it . Concrete planters are very expensive.
Thanks Julian, this was by far the best DIY concrete planter video and method I've seen!
2 bucket technique is so clever!
Awesome! Thank you...I made my first one and it turned out great!
Wonderful advice and video and very easy to follow. It will keep me busy. Thank you.
+susie Reynolds thanks for watching and have fun making yours :)
Awesome Job! Your voice is so soothing. We will give this a try this weekend!
What brand of cement did you use for this project? By the way, great video!!
Das schaut immer so einfach aus. Motiviert mich, es selbst mal auszuprobieren. 😁😁😁 bald sind ja Ferien, dann geht's los ☺️ Danke für Deine Videos.
Super dann viel Spaß beim nachmachen und danke fürs zuschauen 😊👍
Nice! And I like your cobble stones!
Cada vasos lindo amei trabalho maravilhoso parabéns gostei do vídeo parabéns
Awesome! Outstanding. I have to make some.
I like the shape of your pot....Good job!
+William Tusing thanks, I’m happy to hear that :)
Awesome video. Thanks for sharing
Nice work
Great Job!!! That should help me get my pots done tomorrow. Thank you!!
+Donna thank you! Happy concrete pouring today :)
Very cool. Can you please tell what actual aggregate you are using in the mix and what is the product you used at the end (two coats)?
Thans in advance.
Hey, thanks! You could look for aggregate that can be added to concrete in a hardware store. I forgot that in this project. I don't know if it's available in small quantities so maybe a ready for use mix is the better way to go. ;)
For sealing I used a transparent spray lacquer that's suitable for stones. It's been written on the products information.
Excellent video Julian...THANK YOU.
Add glass fibers to the mix to prevent cracking.
Really beautiful ! Thank you 🌸🌺
This planter is great! I've just started making cement planters myself but I'm having a few issues. Like how exactly did you make the hole, did you end up drilling it? And why are my pots so fragile and do I need to soak them in water for two weeks to cure them? Thanks for the video! 🙂
Nice‼️ they look awesome ‼️
How did you get the concrete to the bottom of the bucket? You out your small bucket in and secured it before putting in any concrete. The bottom of your planter was so smooth. Did you just keep pushing down the concrete hoping it was filling in the bottom?
.great video, thanx for sharing
... most youtube planters stick to concrete,
why do yours separate with out issue.
thank you #cheers
Thank you, for better release I often use oil (common household oil will do, but there are also professional release agents) and make sure the surface is as smooth as possible 😊
This is awesome may you do some videos with planter plates. I would love to make these as I am currently in love with the concrete look
Hey, thanks. Do you mean a pot saucer for underneath?
1989go yes... because the I have indoor plants so I don't have a place for them to drain
+K A N I great idea 😊 I was a little unsure what you mean since I'm not a native English speaker 😉
How to paint plastic pot
Thanks again for your suggestion! See my latest video where I also build a pot saucer here: ruclips.net/video/G7W4vUObdaQ/видео.html
very nice
I loveeee this!!! Keep doing more!!!
Realy i like your lovely talking with us good job wish u goodluck
Thank you! Thanks for watching :)
Oh my you do so neat work wish I could do that.
+Eileen Sailing you can :)
Completely AMAZING! I have to make some!
Thaaaank you!
So pretty I love them ♥️
Thanks
Loved your editing in this. I would only suggest making the voiceover louder than the video, as some of the sounds were drowning out your voice a bit. Great video!
Thank you, I'm still trying to figure out how it's the best. In my newest video I set the building sounds lower so it's easier to understand my bad english :D Thanks for your suggestion :)
I'm gonna try this, thank you...
Great job Sir👍💕 Thank you for shearing😊
simply nice... i lv it, & i do it...
Great job! brillant
Thank you very much :) Greetings
Great vid ! How much would the empty planter weight ?
Thank you, I can only guess and would say about 8kg. It depends on bucket sizes and how thick the walls are ;)
Very good. Thanks
Very nice .
Thanks,
how long to let it dry before removing it from the buckets?
Zdravím. Co ty nádoby sešroubovat aby nevzlínaly. Zároveň by tam byli díry pro odtok vody . Mohlo by jich tam být více.
R u mixing only cement ah no sand?
Cute! I need for my balcony!!!
Mulheres da Casa yeaaahh and it'll stand strong wind :) thanks
Hey what brand cement did you use?
Hey, can't remember the brand exactly right now. It must have been a german brand since I'm from Germany. In some projects I used fibre reinforced concrete mix from the brand "Baumit" :)
Julian Do It thank you
Wow nice...
v.nice technic
Outstanding bro!!!👍👍
Nice 👍
Love this!
Great video! What type of concrete mix did you use? It really looks like mortar since i dont see any aggregate
Yeah, just tried my own by mixing sand and cement 2:1. Thank you!
Great work, love how the final result looks like - makes me want to try a hand at it myself!
Would also love to know what video editing tools you used to make the video / text etc? Thank you in advance.
+davinunderscorex thanks, I'm happy you like it!
My videos are completely made on mobile, except for the logo. Logo animation on the newest video is also made on a PC (Davinci Resolve Software).
For video editing I use the mobile IMovie app. 🙂
You're getting great results just using a mobile app like IMovie. Keep it up :)
Really really nice....but just wanna know why my cement pots are not good for my plants?
The soil in them gets fungus (becomes green) and the plant dies. While in the same circumstances, the plants in my clay pots are fresh and healthy and the soil in them is just fine.
HELP.....!!!!!
Hey, sounds strange. This didn't happen to mine, so I only can guess what could a reason. It's very important to let the concrete fully cure, also after that apply a product to finish. So you'll have a layer between concrete and soil.
I once had green soil in different pot as well. It was algae growth from over fertilizing.
Hope this helps 🙂
Good videos.
Thank you 😊
Hi so how much do u think that weights
that was so cool
Hallo. Tolles Video. Kannst du mir eventuell sagen, welchen Zement oder Beton du benutzt? Das würde mir sehr das Try and error Spiel erleichtern... Vielen lieben Dank dafür
Hey, danke. Habe hier ja meinen eigenen mix gemacht. Habe bei anderen Projekten schon estrich Beton benutzt oder vor kurzem auch Faser Estrich-Beton. Würde es mit dem letzteren probieren. Hab den beim Hornbach gekauft. Bei normalem estrich Beton am besten noch was zur Stabilität hinzufügen damit du nicht auch so einen Riss bekommst wie ich ;)
You call it "concrete" but it is really just mortar. Portland cement and sand. To call it concrete, it would have to contain stone, or some type of aggregate. FWIW, I prefer actual "concrete" planters to those made only with mortar, especially if you don't agitate the form. That leaves a honeycomb pattern in the sidewall, which is very attractive.
You’re absolutely right. Just called it concrete because I think it’s something like an umbrella term for that kind of look ;)
That honeycomb looks sounds very awesome, how do you make it? Just mixing cement, sand & water and only pouring in mold? Thanks for your comment!
Hello Julian, what is the product you used at the last part? Matte Lacquer? Kinda didn't hear it well 😅
Hey, you just heard it well 😊. I used a clear matte lacquer to fit the concrete look 😬
@@JulianDoIt thanks for the reply, do you put it after sanding?
Yes, it's the veeeery last step. Also wait for the concrete to be fully cured before applying the lacquer 😉 greetings
@@JulianDoIt merci Julian ❤️
@@JulianDoIt one last question, what Grit # number of sandpaper did you use?
Very nice, what is the wall thickness measurements of the planters?
Hey, it was about 3cm but can't tell it exactly. I took the next bigger bucket size available ;)
Lennart Thissen
good idea.
+Krishnareddy P thanks
Hey it's really nice plss tell me how to make that long square one and I don't have old bucket do can I use that paint one bucket let me know thnks
Hey you can use any buckets you like, they only need to be in a different size and they have to fit inside each other of course ;)
Wow
Zdravím. Co takhle ty nádoby sešroubovat aby nevzlínaly-zároveň by tam byly otvory pro odvod vody.
+josef1071 Hi, I hope google translated your comment right. It’s a great idea to use screws to hold the two buckets together I think. It’s also easier to adjust the space between the buckets. I guess I need to make a version two of the video someday, thanks for your comment! :)
Nice excellent
any concerns about chemicals in concrete contaminating your berries?
Hey, maybe you’ve seen that I sealed the planter at the end of the video. Since the sealing is fully cured before planting it should be save I think. So I didn’t have concerns about it.
Do you use mortar mix with sand or concrete mix?
Hey I mixed cement and sand, but would suggest to add aggregate. Then it'll be a concrete mix :)
Neat!!
What is your concrete mix? I've seen portland cement mixed with sand. Any recommendations?
I've used that too but would suggest to use a mix with aggregate. So that there is more stability for avoiding cracks by winter etc :)
If anyone can suggest where to buy some (super cheap) buckets in the USA - I'd be ever so grateful!!!
I try to make a concrete planters and after some days its krack why? To much water?
There are different possible reasons for that. It's best to watch the description on packaging how much water is just right. It's also possible that the concrete cured to fast. It' needs enough time :)
Don't use PVA it's water soluble. Use SBR.
What about ironing? This pot cracks after week!
I guess this also could have been the reason for that little crack I got. Need to use fiber reinforced concrete mix next time ;)
Yes, it always prefer to use some metalic lattice when working with cоcnrete.
how much is the ratio of cement and sand have you taken?
+Upasana Gautam 1:2, but would recommend to add aggregate or get ready to use concrete mix that's freeze proof.
Like you've seen I got the cracking in my planter, but people learn from mistakes ;)
Does aggregate help to bond cement better and make stronger? What type of aggregate would you recommend please? Thanks
leeroy jenkins
Hi Leeroy, the type of aggregate you use should be small stones for the pot.
You can use lime stone or granite, it's really up to you.
The type of cement could be either white or grey....
You can also get some concrete colouring for it to get various different colours of concrete.
Or you can use a stain after you have finished the pot to get something more interesting.
General rule of thumb is to use 3 sand to 1 cement. And let it cure in water for a few days before using.😂🙏🙏
Can't believe
What?
"Klarlack" is the exact same in Swedish
+Michel now I know two words in Swedish, tusen tack :)
Julian Do It it means "thousands of thanks"
+Michel i knew that one. It’s also easy to keep in mind for me. In german tusen tack means „tausend Dank“
HI there!! I'm having a bit of trouble getting the pots out of the plastic containers - any tip? I uses household oil.
+Chantal de Kock hey 👋 I would try to flip it upside down and use a hammer made of rubber to remove from the plastic. It's important to make this very carefully not to destroy the planter :) let me know if it helped 😊
yes I have the same problem , the pot break after I hit with wood bar ( as rubber hammer replacement )
@@hanafitan7731 I think a wooden stick is too dense and that's why it cracked. Rubber would be a lot more forgiving. Stone slab fitters use rubber mallets, not wooden mallets so I would extend that to cement & concrete as well
Try pouring hot water over the outside of mold to loosen it. 😂👍🙏🙏
Looks like poison ivy.
why do people call cement. concrete. that does not look like concrete to me.
bom
👏🏼❤️🇮🇱🙏🏻
very nice
Thank you :)
Thanks
