- Its already smoking hot here outside. So are the prices for garden amendments and soils as the prices are sky high. Come with me as we look around for the best bargain in our small town
Nothing is cheap or reasonable anymore. Nice to see you planting again 😊.
So true!
So nice, two videos.....one yesterday and one today from our Mr. Tom. Always makes for a happy day. Thank you Tom, know it's work doing the video taking and then the editing. We appreciate it all.
Oh, Mr. Tom! I was hollering at the screen while you were checking out the composted manure. Then I calmed myself and said, Mr. Tom's got this. Sure enough, a few minutes later you explained about watching out for bags that aren't fully composted. Homestead Heart posted a heartbreaking video recently about that very thing. They added Black Kow (?) compost to their soil and killed all their peppers and eggplants because they didn't realize the manure hadn't gotten fully composted.That's a hard way to "live and learn." Wish they'd noticed it sooner. 😢
Yep I saw what happened to their plants too.
Growing our own food is still the best option, farmers markets have become extremely expensive! Where we live, we all better get good at growing our own food. Too many food recalls, for it to be all legitimate.
Loved hearing the birds singing...beautiful. For supper, I had a half a can of corned beef hash. I wasn't very hungry. Don't overdo tomorrow. Get the Kitty Krew to help or at least supervise...lol. Get Gracie to make you lunch. 😁 Take care my friend.
Hi Mr. Tom! Enjoyed the car ride again. Tonight for dinner it was homemade chili and corn bread. Sure was good!
Thank you Mr. Tom for taking us along and great garden planting ❤❤❤love your video and Godbless you and the Kitty Krew ❤❤❤❤
Love gardening videos. You are really a good gardener. I learn so much from you. Thanks! 👍
Ribeye pork chops 4.37lbs... mashed pot, green beans. Maybe cheese cake
Thank you for letting us join you. I need see if our tactor supply as that humas-manure. This evening supper going be smoked sausage with peppers, onions and tomatoes, sides brussels sprouts and beets.
Hey Mr Tom,
That looks like good stuff ! Great tip on the ammonia smell, it has never happened to me with a Scott's product but that was something I didn't know so thank you !
Mmmm Blueberries !!
I have never had luck with those, gave my 2 plants to the neighbour's, they're doing good over there .
Looks like planting season has started with a vengeance!! Lol
Take care, pats to the kitties , even Cleo ..if she'll let you !
I'm sure Spooky and Speedy will "help" Papa put them all in.
Have a great day, hope the weather plays ball .
Golfing day today, up early , coffee and at it.
Cleaning tommorow as they're saying a wet day. Hopefully gardening after that !!!
Just clean ups this time of year down here.
Later Mr Tom 👋
Always A Pleasure to join Alice& Mr.Tom on a Quickie Adventure...Thanks For the Content Family⭐😎👍💙Stay Blessed....
Thank you for the information. Homestead Heart lost 150 pepper plants from using green cow compost. I'm so glad I watch you tube! Love to the kitties! Stay cool!
Boy everything is looking so green and lush at your place, it's been a slow go at mine but we are getting there and with the recent rains it won't be long take care Mr.Tom ❤
The 3 Panthers singing for their supper. So cute! Great plant starts Mr Tom.
Yes they do
I think there are people who don't want people to garden😮
Be Careful With getting Top Soil @ Tractor Supply.My wife bought some to re-pot her House plants & About 10 days later they were full of gnats.She had to throw them away & Buy new plants.I think there were eggs in that soil cause the plants were healthy until they were re- potted.
Thanks so much MrTom and now I know how to shop for my house plants 🪴. Please stay safe and God bless y’all! 😻😻😻🌱🌱🌱🤩🤩🤩💯💯💯❤️❤️❤️
Our pleasure!
Always enjoy hanging out & hitchin rides with you Mr Tom 👍🏻God Bless you & the Kitty Krew 🐈⬛ Roll Tide 🏈
Don't forget to hit the thumbs up everyone and watch the ads. It all helps.
Great video, Mr. Tom. Things(even dirt) are quickly becoming unaffordable. No telling what the future holds, but we know who holds it. Love you❤️
U teach Me new things every day
Blessings ❤
Slide over Albert and let me sit down too!! Thank you so much Mr. Tom for taking us along!!💯♥️
Yes, its so hot I want ice cream. lol
Thank you Mr. Tom. I’m going to get some of the soils you recommended. It really helps. Had I not seen the good prices you found I would not get those and my plants might not do so well. I hope so much that you feel better real soon. Prayers ❤
Do things ever go down in price? If they do do they go back to where they were??? I don't think so.
When those plamts bolt, you can save the seeds and replant for more plants. Not sure if they will grow what you want
I buy heirloom plants so i can save seeds. Havent bought plants or seeds for 2 yrs now.
Well Mr. Tom, I did go get my better boy tomato plants yesterday as planned. If I buy them early I try to get the 6 plants to a container to save a little. Bonnie had delivered to the store on the day prior on Wednesday. The 6 packs sell super quick and they were already sold out by the next day.
So all they had left was the single plants in a cup. Those are usually a little costlier but they are also a few inches taller. They were $4.99 per cup. A couple years ago I found myself in the same situation and I tried to hold out for another delivery of 6 packs the following week. Problem was…. There was never any more 6 packs and they had already sold out of the cups too. So I had to settle for some rutgers and celebrities. These were so so in my opinion. So this time I bit the bullet and got 50 cups. Sometimes a man has to do what a man has to do I guess. Good luck with your garden this year!!! Catch you on the next one!!!
Been eating from freezer soups and low sugar berry cobblers, yogurt and frozen homegrown berries etc, as for the past few days getting seedling tomato plants, flowers, greens, ready for a car club car show swap meet this Sunday as my son belongs to the car club. At our state fairgrounds. He enjoys so much my ex, his dad and I share a swap spot, he has toys and some car parts. I’ve been digging raspberry and blackberry plants to bring to. So much work but the car club specifically requested I come back this year. At 72 keeping body fueled with good food and water and intermittent rest breaks is mandatory. So grateful no cooking but just heating up. Thanks for the ride along Mr. Tom.
Hi my friend ☺ 😊 I'm in the front!
Yes you are!
Pig Feeet and Cranberry beans for dinner here plus raw veggies on the side.
Had fun watching you get your gardening supplies ❤ Congrats on getting those collards! What a score 🙌 we had spaghetti & salad with bread for dinner 🍝 (cooked all from scratch) Dessert was homemade vanilla ice cream & chocolate cake with chocolate frosting
Thank you for the video. I don’t garden anymore, I shop around for best prices and will go to Farmers Markets. We do have many farms on Long Island and our maritime climate makes a good growing season. I still enjoy watching your planting videos, and rides. It reminds me of Tennessee. Last night I did not cook and will not tonight either. I will start on Sunday again. Need to go to the supermarket for pantry supplies and the like. I do prep for the long haul but restock as I use. Have a Blessed day, you and the crew…❤🌿🌞🎚️🗽
I watch another gardening channel, and she adds some all natural kitty litter to her potting soil so it won't dry out, so she has to water it less. You could also mix some in your soil under your vegetables. Just a tip, for those is hot dry zones.
Hello Mr. Tommy kitty crew enjoyed the ride and learned a lot about the potty in the manure, so that’s time I go to get some to put my vegetables I won’t know what to get. Thank you very much Mr. Tom and the kitty crew now I got to go. Thank you very much. God bless you good night.
We finally got a lot of our garden planted this week Just in time for the rain this weekend Great video I hope your appointment went well yesterday or your pre op God bless
I'm got my soil at walmart and Lowes.zi had some oak pallets,so I gutted thrpallet with just the frame.I use them for my raised garden beds.
Thanks for the shopping trip.
Looks like you’re n high summer Mr. Tom. Here where I am, everything is still sleeping, and we got snow last night and today 😆
Stay cool!

Hello Tom....So glad you got the things you wanted to plant this year. Bad day today, lot of knee pain. Pretty out, so went grocery shopping today with knee wrapped. Had rotisserie chicken and potato salad for dinner. Was tired from shopping and a quick meal. Will make chicken salad tomorrow. MGBYAML ❤
Glad to see you’re fixing to garden that’s my happiest time of year 😊
Mine too!
This lady Shelly Edwards watches Linda Houser Channel also cuz I've seen her in the chat
@@Sue-nw6yxyea I do she’s one of my favorites
Thanks For taking us a long again .Looks like you are on your way to another successful season of gardening🌱🐦🕊️🐦🕊️🌱Nice Background music!🎶🎵🐦That Lil' Gracie is So Clever!😹❤️ Had a nice day with you,again.Thanks! ❤️🕊️ Lord's Blessings All💕From the Foothills of the Olympics 🏔️ WA 🌧️
Have a great weekend. Me and my dog is having fried potatoes and smoked sasuage.love seeing you cook and drives.
Sounds great!
I anticipated higher prices… 3years ago bought 13 bags of 10 10 10 and 6 bags of heavy nitrogen stuff. Make sweet corn very sweet if dress your corn when plating and a few weeks b4 picking.
That is awesome!
Our hot day was yesterday at 84. Thankfully it was cloudy. I'm from south Louisiana but 46 years away I've become a heat wimp!!! My dirt for my petunias, as I said in my last post, is last year's petunia dirt and the year before's...I can't remember. They don't care lol. I'm trying to keep my indoor plants alive. Lost some in the last few years but the ones left are doing good . If I had the space to grow a garden, I live in an apartment, I would.
Take care Mr Tom❤️
Thanks for video Mr Tom. I cooke a pork chop,small baked potato,gravy,and broccoli for dinner and half an apple for dessert. It was good.
Nice to visit again MrTom, having breakfast for supper, thanks for sharing YAH bless brother !
We no longer buy potting soil and other things at places like you visited. Instead we go to a landscaping place about 5 miles from out home and buy trailer loads of mulch and compost. It is a whole lot cheaper and is really good stuff for filling pots or spreading in our planting areas. They will sell you however much that you want. We have seen some with a pickup truck go in and get some in the back of their truck. So if you have a place like that close to home that might be a better place to buy what you need.
There is no place within 2 hours of me that sells bulk compost anymore. I check every year and none to be found.
@@DeepSouthBama56 That is too bad because it sure would save you a lot of money. Sometimes we just do what we have to do and let some things just go. Putting things into priority is important. I know you do that.
Blessings and Comfort to You Mr. Tom and kitty Krew💙✨🙏✌️
I’m going to work on my flowers today. I’m hoarding. Kitty litter too. Grandkids are here today. Well all work in the garden. Bubble bath later, lol
Sounds great!
Enjoyed another outing. May your green thumbs be fruitful ❤
Hello Mr.Tom and the kitty crew. It is that time again. I'm going out tomorrow to get a few thing's. Will let you know what I get.
Thanks for the trip 😊
Thank you Mr Tom ✝️❤️
Nice trip glad you got what you wanted Mr Tom.
Just another reason for having backyard chickens - Free fertilizer. And really good fertilizer, too. I always compost what I clean out of the chicken coop. Chicken manure is very high in nitrogen, and if you think those Tractor Supply prices are high, just price a bag of composted hen manure! Zowie! Since I can't plant and tend my garden this year, I just let Elvis and the girls free-range on it. By the time I'm well again, they will have applied plenty of organic fertilizer! This year, however, I'm just going to have to get my gardening jones vicariously by watching yours grow and flourish! Take care, and God bless.
Love tthe name for your rooster!
I love Elvis ❤️
Carol I pray that your so much better soon. May God Bless You
@@DeepSouthBama56 Thank you, Tom! God his healing me, albeit, slowly. Teaching me patience, for sure.
Repeat on watching another video-I tend to do that a lot… I LOVE Tractor Supply… I roam through that store and always check out their plants … thanks again for the ride- always great company ❤🚗
Hello Mr.Tom at my local foodland they have potting soil for $3.99 1cubit ft but alot of other ones are high priced. Thanks for the information!
That promix was 9.99 bout 3 summers ago i hav to put signs on it every year!!!!! I thought that moisture potting soil had those beads. I just buy the beads seperate and add. Cheaper that way!!!!
I thought that too, but last year I bought a bag or two . When using them I found no beads in it any more just a lot of peat sticks and some type of tree bark.
Hi Tom and Kitty crew been still too cold here in Minnesota to put my peppers and tomatoes out hopefully soon wishing you a bountiful harvest this year ❤️
Hey Mr Tom you're getting ready for your gardening buy you lots of potting mix and plants another Channel I watch that does a lot of gardening is Linda Houser she is 75 and lives alone and she makes recipes and does a lot of gardening he lives in Texas you would probably really enjoy her Channel also check it out
I will check it out
Good start. Enjoyed the ride and talk. God bless. 👍😃❤️🙏😺
About the only way I have found to get a better price on compost or mulch, etc is to get a pickup load at a landscapers supply. With chemicals and fertilizer you are at their mercy.
Love Mr. Tom!
Be careful with some of the fertilizer, a few channels said their plants burned and fertilizer smelled of ammonia.
Home Depot had 2 dollar compost bags. Had a delivery for 8 dollars. Early in the year so delivery was cheaper.
Put me in the trunk, I'm late (in trunk of car) Mr. Tom, but always on tiiiime! Get away from that Melisa (personality conflict). They'd see me in ER if I moved down there! Love from 50% FINN. 🔵⚪🔵⚪In Minnesota, N. Mn especially, we love our Falls and Springs. Winters, are brutal. Like you; you're used to the heat. Not us! Anyway...
Getting ready to watch.......
Hi Mr. Tom, thank ya for takin us all along with ya to find the stuff ya needed for your gardening. So glad you was able to find them collard plants; they are so tasty and yummy. It sure does get hot out in them parkin lots. I hope ya got yourself some sweet tea when ya got back home Mr. Tom; a nice cold glass a sweet tea hits the spot. It was 65 here today, but it's supposed to get up in the 80's next week. Well, as for my supper, it ain't nothin excitin Mr. Tom. Just fixed me some rice with some black eye peas; that be my supper; nothin fancy round here, but it'll fill my tummy. 😊 God bless ya Mr. Tom, and keep hydrated. Hope ever thing went well for ya at your pre-op yesterday. Keepin ya in prayer. Sendin you, Gracie, the Kitty Krew, Heathcliff, and Fluffy, love and a big hug.❤🤗
Here I am again!! Love going to the Garden Center, and hoping we go by DQ!!
I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream! My dad would sing that every chance he got! Thanks Mr. Tom for taking us along. I pray your trip to Montgomery and pre-op visit went well. 😊
Usually as the collard plant gets older they get tougher. We always sowed collards and turnip greens from seed each year
I know other varieties do, but I was surprised these did not get tough or stringy as well as never getting bitter during the heat of summer.
Handsome with your hair slicked...
tracker supply is kind of on the expensive side,I go to HD sometimes they have deals there,
For supper tonite I had Shepherd pie with gravy and a side order of peas and carrots. For dessert, a raisin butter tart with coffee, cream and sugar! It was good!
Sounds great!
Hi Mr Tom, thank you for the trip! Praying you all are well and keeping as cool as you can ;-)
Wonderful❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉vlog❤🎉
Mirical grow potting mix 2c foot is only 11.59 a rule king if you have one
Those tomatoes plants look good wish i could grow me some but where i live i can't have any the complex want let me don't get to hot take care and God bless you and the kitty crew
Sorry to hear that
Thank you Mr Tom 🎉 we are having chicken rice and broccoli
Wonderful
Hi Mr Tom! I always thought humus was human manure. Happy to see you got you some collards! I've never tried collards.
Go to your local cow farm and buy aged manure. Farmer will likely give you more than you need cus he has huge supply.
Sad to say but only a few people with a few cows anywhere close to me these days.
@@DeepSouthBama56 there isn’t any around here anymore. It is sad. Horse manure can be gotten from stables that really good too.
Hi again, Mr. Tom. Yep. Tarmac and sun = smoking hot every time.
I agree. Scott's is better than miracle grow. And I like to use that peat moss, too.
At least Gracie texted before you got home... lol 😂
Here in Southern California there’s a lot of competition in the bagged soil business since everyone grows weed. You can get a lot of good quality soil for under $10 in some places. Bonnie plants has been getting run out by competitors in some places that they’ve lowered prices too.
Hey Tom, Good to see you today
When next shopping trip?
Mr. Tom, Have you tried saving celery bottoms and replanting, and herbs etc?
Yes I have.
Thanks for the gardening advice, Mr. Tom. I have a few containers that I’ll be planting soon and was wondering if I should buy new soil for them. I’ll definitely be trying that Scott’s humus and manure instead. But I have a question. Do you add additional fertilizer to your vegetable plants during the growing season? If so, what do you use? My vegetable plants often end up being very scrawny.
But remember to read and follow instructions on the bag.
Hello Mr Tom, is there any advantage in using a packaged acidifier as opposed to a natural acidifier? I use my old coffee grinds and the blueberry bushes, daffodils, and even the grape vine loves it
Now I save and use coffee grounds to, but they take time to break down. They also do not change the PH as much as a sulfur acidifier does. Sulfur which is a natural element, is stronger and much quicker
Mr Tom I have always used miracle grow potting soil for my garden and flowers but not this year here it's 25.oo a for 2 cubit feet and that's just crazy high😢😢
Fun Fact: as long as we have the Same people in the White House things Will Keep going Up in Price 💰💰 But Nobody wants to Talk about it they would rather Shut Up and Hope it All Goes Away. It's Unbelievable !!!!
I don't put my faith in any person to make life better, rather I give it up to God he decides what will be. Amen🙏✨
More like the Terrible Truth than a Fun Fact. 😢
Fun Fact. Inflation was coming no matter who's in the White House. Look around the world, all countries are going through it.
I agree with you.
It doesn't matter who is in the White House, it will still be a hot mess.
Tom, if you trust it, then I will try it too. No truck loads of compost/manure this year. Too expensive from the farm and I will try this in the planting areas in a few weeks. Thank you!
Sounds great!
Should’ve been making compost for years now. Grass clippings with leaves mix with small tiller pile up and wait. Repeat you will have more compost than you need
@@improvisedsurvival5967 I do have that and a small forest on property where we haven't "black gold" soil from under years of composted elements. I was interested in the manure/jumps mix to cut back on my labor for squash plants and beans. Not going to try... ty
@@Saoirse.n.Murphy the soil here is black rich full of worms about 2 ft deep then it starts to turn clay. Manure is good but I just use compose. Start my seeds in compost I screen into buckets then scoop into my seed starting pots. Ya some people soil sucks so you gotta amend it
Mr. Tom, what's up with the collard greens, when your existing collard greens continued to this day in 2024? I'm not upset, I'm more just trying to figure it out!😂
In September of 2022 I planted both Kale and collard greens in the fall. They survived the winter and grew all through 2023 , I did have three collards go to seed in the summer of 2023 but the rest did not . They continued to grow this spring. Then collards started blooming and are now going to seed. But the Kale never did and I just pulled it up today. You can see this in my walk about videos over the past growing seasons here on the channel
Soil has gotten stupid.
Who buys dirt
