Seven years ago, just for fun, I tried a few tomato plants in containers. This year I grew cherry tomatoes, slicing tomatoes, yellow squash, zucchini, cucumbers, green beans, bok choy, butter lettuce, spinach, rainbow chard, three kinds of kale, mint, basil (Italian and Thai), parsley, chamomile, and yarrow-all in containers on my deck. Next year I’m adding potatoes. I really enjoy your videos. Keep ‘em coming, please!
U can probably add potatoes now, unless u live in zones 1 or 2, LOL. I'm getting ready to plant some of the leftovers from last winter which are budding like crazy now. I'll predominantly be doing purple (sweet) potatoes. I live in zone 9a.
Tomatoes. The entry drug into vegetable gardening.
Do you stake the tomatoes!!? I’m disabled and sad cause I can’t use my garden anymore……this year I’m determined to plant in containers on my patio!!
Thanks for sharing! I’m starting this year. I’m actually so excited and I can’t believe how much I’m loving these videos. I actually fell asleep watching them.
@frasersgirl4383 I actually use tall tomato cages pushed right into the potting soil. I use the coated brightly painted ones, they are cheerful!
🐕 Tuck is such a great gardening companion ❤.
💕 ❤
I’m here for Tuck… The garden is a bonus ❤️🐶
mans eats his veggies
I got free square shaped food grade buckets from the galley near my work. They held fruit cocktail and other fruit and vegetables and the empty containers were going to be thrown away. Check with your local restaurants for 3-5 gallon containers that contained larger quantities of food, drill holes in the bottom, and you have a free container. I have had them for years!
I got some of mine the very same way for free!
Yes I get mine from Chik Fila! Their Pickle gallon buckets are FREEEE
Big giant plastic kitty litter containers work too 😉
@@LeisaStroud-df4yj Need to make double sure they are food safe/grade plastic free of harmful chemicals that will leach into the soil. Food-grade plastics can contain recycled materials, but they should fit proper guidelines set by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Usually, plastic containers come with a food-grade rating that spans from 1 to 7. When it comes to food storage, plastic grades 2, 4, and 5 are deemed the safest. The use of these plastics for storing or growing food will prevent accidental ingestion of harmful toxins.
9:37 yes please, I have spent so much on trying to figure out soil and I can’t succeed. A soil tutorial would be incredibly kind and helpful.
You will meed a small forest for that...
Let's Gooo! Congratulations @littlepigboy , you are the winner of the Gnome Challenge! Just send me an email at thegardeningshowjp@gmail.com with the kind of free shirt you would like and I will send you a link to the free gift! 🐕😁❤️
@littlepigboy Whereabouts is the gnome, as I cannot see it anywhere at that time stamp and have watched about 20 seconds either side too.
@@jamesprigioni I love container gardening but problem is the mole crickets infestations. We cannot grow herbs and vegetables properly.
One hack for growing in containers is to put the holes a couple inches from the bottom on the sides. This stores a bit of moisture and you rarely have to water them!
That's awesome! Thanks!!!
Makes sense. Great share!
@@Scary-Adventures ... We're super glad you like it. It works really well.
@@videosightproductions-loca2242 ... You're welcome! You'll get more consistent harvest.
Love this idea I’ve heard of ppl putting a layer of rocks in the bottom for better drainage do you think that’s necessary or would help?
Your videographer is doing an excellent job.
❤❤❤❤❤ Mr. Tuck is always working hard!❤❤❤❤❤
Your the best youtube harvester, no one gets this excited.
❤❤Tuck we love you…oh, and you too James. 😁
Please do a video showing step by step from the container to the container soil mixture to how you transplant in the containers. So much enjoy your videos.
Hey James, it would be great to see a video on how you reinvigorate the used soil in the bucket for the next harvest.
He has one and many others on youtube, just do a youtube search and you'll find dozens.
SHARE THIS VIDEO FOR BIG FUTURE HARVESTS! 🐕😁❤
Can I used 5 Gallons bucket that come with transmission or differential fluid?
Do you overwinter your peppers?
They produce even more in subsequent years.
@@cruz1742 No. Use only 'Food Grade' buckets and containers.
Please consider purchasing a couple of 'Greenstalks' to demonstrate growing in because you get such MASSIVE results in whatever way you seem to plant, I bet yours would be highly productive and gorgeous!
A detailed video on your container soil mix would be great!! Tuck is great❤!
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️just for Tuckett. He is such a joy
Be sure to trellis your eggplant and peppers in containers. The only issue you had was the plants splitting and breaking from wind and big veggies.
We stake our Bells and tie them. Wind has broken branches on 4 bell plants that still have green peppers on them. I'll pick before they get soft because leaves are still beautiful. two in buckets and the other two in the ground.
We grow eggplants and peppers in cages so they won’t break branches. You could use mini cages with container plants.
What do the cages look like that you use?
when all else is crumbling out in the world. its good to see some good vibes. sow with the flow.
First, I love your videos. Keep up the nice work. Just watched your container video and I wanted to share. I have a bad back but love to garden. I started using containers several years ago and I love it. I'll admit not as great as yours, but pretty good. This year I had about 20 fabric grow bags, from 5 gallon to 20. I had peppers, eggplant, tomatoes, lettuce, flowers, zucchini, (yes zucchini), spinach, kale, swiss chard, mizuna. They all did well. It's much easier for me to tend to the plants with a chair. I also can move them around. Say out of the sun when too hot, or if one is shaded by another plant, I can move them around to get them more sun. They are a big help for me. Sorry for the long comment, but wanted you to know how much I enjoy the containers and your videos. Going to check out the merch!
You don't have trouble moving 20 gal grow bags with a bad back?
If you don't mind me asking, what size would you say is the overall sweet spot when it comes to grow bags?
We always grow our small Tomatoes and hot Peppers in big pots on our sunny patio, along with all my potted flowers. The yields are stunning.
This was my FINAL YEAR for ground planting. We got too wet/cool here in Virgina during June/July. Then, hot and drought, all these things will be our new normal. We had ZERO Tomatoes and Cucumbers in the ground, same with landscape clients growing in the ground. Last winter we finished up the raised beds for one client, they had a magnificent yield this Summer! We are helping another client get her raised beds in too, and completely redesign her garden.
I already have two raised beds for lettuce and strawberries. The strawberries will be grown in pots off the ground, as I'm tired of loss.
So I just received my Premium Cedar Beds, and will redo our OWN garden area this fall, putting up fencing/gate, putting down cardboard and chopped leaves. I'll go ahead and put the protectant on the cedar wood, and put them in place, along with the steel trellising. Won't fill with soil until Spring.
We want to be ready! Thanks James and Tuck, for all your inspiration and good advice!
Ct 6b. We had same conditions. We started Bell peppers and Roma Tomatoes, Basil, Marigolds under lights early enough to make a positive difference. 6 qt, and 24 pints of sauce. 3 locations and twice started under lights for the Roma's. Florida weave saved most from breaking. Roma's did not ripen all at once. All but one roma's in the garden. Peppers in buckets still have green ones and more then the peppers in the ground. We've been following James couple years and has helped tremendously. Love his pruning teaching videos.
I like the fact that you are honest. Not all gardeners show us what products they use against pests.
Your channel is a goldmine of knowledge! Keep up the amazing work. I'm learning so much.
So much from container gardening. It's amazing!!!
Tuck is looking great. A little gray in his fur but still going strong. So glad God is watching over him. 🙏❤️
🐕does grounding naturally. No rubber sole shoes. lol. Plus all the regenerative vibes from the garden. We could learn a thing or two. Organic.
Tuck is so adorable ❤! How old is he? How much does he weigh?
I’ve never seen a dog eat as much vegetables as Tuck❤
Hello brother I'm watching from the Gambia 🇬🇲 I'm also a gardener and you inspired me to do gardening
Hello my Gambian friend!! Me and Tuck are glad to hear that, we hope you are growing some delicious food!
Yes brother I'm so glad to hear from you guys and say hello to the king of the garden as well ... indeed im growing nice fruits like Apple 🍏 Strawberries kiwi mulberry and more
I started working on my own small gender at home after watching your videos 6 years ago on how to grow Apple from seed and i try it and it works really well
❤❤ Thank you for your videos. I love growing in pots. 66 years old and disabled but still trying to harvest and can every year. Love to you & Tuck❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for the pots idea of these 5 gallon pots. Perfect timing for my planting after Mother’s Day 😄🙏
Your local bakeries get their icing in food safe buckets and they usually throw those away. Walmart also has icing buckets they give away that are food safe. Both 5 gallon and 3 gallon ones.
My gosh...the size and abundance of eggplants and peppers
I have a small backyard and no space for an in-ground garden. I can only do container gardening. The potting mix I used last year was terrible and nothing would grow in it. This year, I made my own potting mix, which, worked great. I have a large outdoor patio, so I use that for my containers. This past spring, I planted 38 fabric grow bags and 2 GreenStalk vertical planters. I learned a lot about bugs this growing season. It was my first time growing brassicas. The cabbage worms got them, destroyed the plants very fast and didn't get any produce from them. I only grew dwarf tomato plants, and the leaf-footed bugs got my tomato plants. I did get a decent harvest of tomatoes though. Bell peppers did well in grow bags. Overall, even though I had some disappointing setbacks, I overcame the challenges and had a decent veggie harvest. For next year, I've already planned how to outsmart the bugs, so they won't get to enjoy the fruit of my hard labor. Bwaaahaha!
Greenstalk?
Thanks for the video and you are right they love containers ! I don't have much land soooo I took 2 $ 9 dollar general kiddy pools put holes in the bottom planted there its great and small enough when I want to cover with plastic , I just use 4 foot stakes as a teepee and a painters plastic tarp to cover 👍
James for the past two years, I too have started growing peppers & eggplants in containers vs. in ground or raised beds.
Glad to hear we are on the same page about this. I wish I realized sooner, but better late than never.
Egyptian spinach and okra do very well in containers. People throw away foam containers all of the time near me. The foam containers protect the roots from the harsh mid Florida sun.
Those red peppers are glowing in the sun! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
😍
I really need to reach this level of planting in containers and buckets❤❤❤ wow❤❤ my crops has never reached this level of growth well done
Read chrisspringer comment free food buckets.
I think your fertilizer is making a big difference in container yield. I've learned a lot from you, thank you. I did well with cucumbers, peas, raspberries.... and cannabis..
cannabis I love that 🤣
I hear cannibis is really finicky to grow! Congrats on your success with it!
@@kathyhayes5578 It's much less finicky to grow outdoors. I just put a few seeds down and once they were waist high I transplanted them directly in the ground. After that I only gave it some Miracle grow once. It's still drying right now. Only one cola had rot so far.
Nice to see Tuck enjoying the peppers!❤❤❤
This is so inspirational- so many people nowadays don't have access to a backyard and are often put off to even try gardening because they think they can't do well by only using containers, so it's really great to see an alternative to just planting things in ground soil alone.
I just love how genuine you are and how much enthusiasm you express. And, of course, Tuck is my favorite little gardener. Thanks for sharing your gardening journey!
Always love your videos and the knowledge you're sharing. I've been gardening for decades and love trying new things that I've learned from you! Blessings to you and Tuck!
James! Thank you for showing us such beautiful striking food! Tucker, may you live eternally in the food forest harvesting and snacking in your favorite veggie treats ❤❤❤❤❤ love you guys
Love to you and Tuck hon, keep on planting! ❤
I can't wait for spring! I'm learning so much from you!!!!
I just love your energy and enthusiasm!!! Thank you, you've given me lots of motivation to try my own.
I'm so pleased and encouraged by all the videos about container gardening! I live in a condo and my only space is a patio. I still want to grow food, and I am trying to absorb as much information as possible. Thanks!
Ohh weee! Always love seeing your healthy plants and your harvest.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I always enjoy your garden videos.❤
Love how authentic you are. This was very encouraging!
Wow, fantastic. Thank you for sharing these amazing plants you have. So impressive.
Container can definitely have some benefits, that's for sure.
We love ur channel ! Please never stop we got inspired by you so much 😊
Happy I found your channel, always happy to get tips from a passionate grower!!
Yes detail your soil because I know that makes the plants! Love your enthusiasm too!!!🌱
I'm so excited to follow along next year for this! Also, did you make a video about growing the sweet potatoes in a bucket? Would love one! And I have to say that I appreciate seeing how well your vegetables grow in the 5 gallon buckets. When I research what size pot to use for some of those crops, it's usually recommended to use a 10-20+ gallon pot or grow bag and that's a LOT of soil. But you use less soil that is GOOD quality and amended well--I think that's the key!
I’m very proud of you ,you are the best gardener , go go
Love watching your videos. Like you I am learning what I can grow best in containers and raised beds, and next spring I will be making some changes. The best part of your videos is seeing Tuck, I love that dog!!! ❤❤❤❤❤
I miss living down the shore 😢 I love how the growing season is longe😂r on certain crops!
James, I was in Little Egg Harbor.
Now in Hopatcong ,North Jersey.
Great video!
My pink bumble bee tomatoes are still booming!
My cucumbers are starting to pop , ❤❤❤, ❤❤Tuck and you Rock James!!
Love your videos keep them coming 😍 we learn a lot from them 💕
Glad to hear that @reddog3043 , me and Tuck will keep kicking them out!
Thank you so much! Thanks to some of your advice I am still reaping produce here into October in a mountainous area where its already getting chilly. You and Tuck are the best!
I'm glad I started searching you and tuck. I've learned a lot watching you. I was thrilled this year with my eggplant .and tomatoes. I'm from n.j. also and I love gardening. Keep up the good work and keep helping us. Thanks!!! 😁😁😁😁
Tucky boy so cute and some nice harvests too! love your videos!!
❤Love Tuck. Yes, please make a video mixing your container soil. Also, i would love to see what you do with the container soil after the end of the growing season. Do you empty the pots, where/how do you store the used soil, what do you do with the empty containers, etc.? Love your gardening enthusiasm❣
Dude, thanks for getting on board! I've been lobbying for you to do more containers for a while. Fabric is where it's at!
You get so excited about growing!!! Love it ! Encouraging
Your videos are so amazing. Informative, fun, and real. Also appreciate you sharing that your learning as you go. Keep it up! You are inspiring others. I know from experience (sometimes when you think your not making an impact, you are, your just not hearing from many. Thanks James…. And Tuck. Your both inspirations 💯💪
I have upped my container gardening with Greenstalks and buckets this past summer - eggplant grew fabulously!
Go sooo many sweet potatoes in my greenstalk this year
Love the video I love you tuck ❤you’re the best. Thank you for the great information. I will gladly use it
Thanks John!!
I watched your other video about container gardening and just received an order of buckets for next year. I'm looking forward to this new method of gardening.Thanks!
Thank you for sharing your beautiful garden 👍👋
Thank you for sharing this James! My struggle Tia year is sun light. My neighbors trees have grown so much I’ve lost a lot of sun hours. Maybe you can do a video on container gardening in part sun or part shade? ❤❤❤❤
I just reached the same conclusion with my peppers and eggplant yesterday. And so it frees up a huge bed for cut flowers and cucumbers. But even more exciting has been planting peas in my tomato and pepper containers and eatching them use them tomato and pepper plants as a trellis. I am so excited to see how they winter over.
⭐ Thanks James and Tuck for another great episode full of tips and tricks for container growing! We also are planting more container plants than ever before! Cheers to good health 😎
Thanks James, always an inspiration! 😊❤️👍
A container is all you need for peppers. Esp chili peppers. Don't waste the space in your raised beds for something you can just move around as you'd like.
Hi James. I would love to see a video of you making your soil. I am just preparing to build some raised beds. Ironically, I just found your channel when I moved from Jersey to Florida. But even though I will have to time some things differently, I can still use so many of your tips. I used to grow vegetables in containers on my balcony when I lived in an apartment 40 years ago! I still grow most of my annuals in containers, I just find they are so much less maintenance than a big patch of earth that needs weeding. And you can grow plants with different needs side by side in their own pot, each it's own ecosystem. Also, except in the hottest weather, I believe that container gardening is water saving, as you only have to water the pot and not all the surrounding ground.
Search his old videos, he has some on making soil :)
I love watching your show with Tuck! I am going to try containers this year. Looking forward to a tutorial!
Your passion for gardening is so contagious. I'd love a garden like yours to work in. Keep up the great work.
I’ve been growing moringa for years in 7b. I transplant them in a smaller container to overwinter in the garage and when spring comes,
I plant them in the ground to make them grow wild. Pinch the very top to encourage growing more branches so you can have more leafy greens. You can also eat the young pods like long beans. Just in case the overwintered moringa’s stems die, don’t throw it away. Check the root if it’s still hard, if it’s mushy then it’s dead. If it’s still hard, it’s alive. You’ll have more stems of moringa the next time you plant it outside. Last year I overwintered my peppers and they are doing great this year. No need to plant from seed.
Personally I think the grow bags work better than the 5 gallon pails. They do dry out a little faster but take a look at the self tapping roots after the season is done. It's a big difference.
Hmmmm. It makes sense to put a hole in the bottom of the grow bag.
climate is also a factor. I live in a wet climate so a bag that will wick moisture is the better choice and the buckets would rot my produce. Imagine it's the opposite for him.
@@smas3256 no it doesnt lmao
Thanks for the inspiration , your dog is so cute ❤
Tucker is the cutest garden helper! Love him! 😍💕✨
I’m starting in raised beds and containers also next year
Glad to hear that! For annuals I think those are the two best methods for backyard gardeners
PEPPERS AND EGGPLANTS always go in the containers because they are too darn picky.
True! And they take too dang long to set up and start producing. They come in heavy when they finally decide to start kicking them out, but stil
Preach
What's the recommend container volume for them?
I agree you get so much from your containers those peppers had me doing a double take. Tuck is really looking great. Thank you for taking such good care of him. I try to get as much of a glimpse of him as possible , he makes me smile like when he wanted to grab a pepper 😊❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks James and Tuck! I grew a sweet potatoes in a pot this year as we do not have a long enough season and even though I started it late I got a few potatoes. Very fun!
…I’ll believe it when I see it, James. 🙄 😆 Teasing, of course. 😉 🐶💙 🪴
When it comes to peppers and eggplants I gotta do containers now. Those suckers just take up so much space to produce so late. The rest of the bed is ready to transition to fall and they are just starting to produce heavy.
My cucumber 🥒 plants did so much better this year in container vs my in ground ones in MA
Love the New Jersey… see what I did there… Tuck ❤❤❤❤
So much inspiration from you, thank you!!!
Your beautiful garden is a great motivator.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❣️💋Tucky!
This harvest is gonna be a good one❤. What season are you in and why do tomatoes split when they get too much water?.
I am in fall now. They split because the inside grows faster then the skin on the outside, some varieties are more prone to splitting than others
Excellent video as always James!
While living in a small rental, and a tiny RV for several months after that, we got into the habit of container gardening, and now I can’t quit!
You're the best,your garden is all so healthy and beautiful.
Your garden is so inspiring! How do you water all of your containers? Manually?
Yup, doesn't take a lot when they are mulched. But the big tomatoes do drink a lot on hot days. Sometimes I prefer hand watering cause it makes me go out and check on the plants regularly and say hi to them
Hello James. I’m wondering about drainage in the buckets.
I did plant some tomatoes in buckets this year in Texas. It has been ridiculously hot, but 1 plant is still alive and well ! My peppers didn’t fruit, but I’m saving them over winter.
I’m hoping to get a few things in my bed, even though I’m behind. Thanks for your advice and information. DD n TX 🌿😎🌿😎🌿
Place you peppers in the partially shaded areas or East side of your house so it will only get the Morning sun & not the hot hot temp. I had the same issue & when I moved my peppers to the afternoon shade area, they started fruiting, the problem now is, the cold weather is approaching & they still have more blooms coming.🤓
James i absolutely love watching your uploads, your energy is infectious, your food forest is absolutely amazing! I hope you continue to get phenomenal yields in the upcoming season, and never stop churning out content, it brings us all such joy to see 😊
Thanks for the tips 😊
BUT HOW DO YOU STOP THE INSECTS FROM KILLING YOUR PLANTS?
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤TUCK
Hey Team Tuck! Chilling out because it is raining inside!! I am very keen on the container gardening and exploring soil options to raise different types of plants!! Hearts for both of you!!! 💞
You are definitely a master gardener. Your garden always looks great no matter the time of year.
TY for sharing!!! TY and God bless!!!
Nothing better than watching your videos first thing on a Saturday morning. So inspiring, I'm fired up to get out into the garden and plant!
Always great content!!! and so inspirational
Excellent information! Love your videos! ❤️
