I just love this video. I had never thought to use gardening software before either. Seems almost too organized… I will try it! I like to plant beans, squash and corn together. They support each other. And grow well together!

I use black plastic to cover the isles of my garden, I reuse it every year. The best organic weed control I’ve seen. Bring it indoors in the fall, it will last longer. All garden rows are the same every year so I add aged manure and till only what will be planted, not the isles.

Great tips! This is my second year of organic gardening. I really like the strawberry idea in the video!

my internet is tooooo slow here, so I can’t watch that clip. So I see only the picture. To use the paper-rolls is a old trick, but to fold the ends of them: I never had done that. I simply pressed the soil with a hammer-handle, so the soil doesn’t drop out, filled loose soil on top, put it into the try, sticking the seed in and water the whole try….it never failed. For smaller seed/plants I use not toilet-paper rolls, but paperrolls, made from a old newspaper: simply rolled around a straight stick (broomstick, cable-pipe etc.), make it wet, let it dry, pull the stick out and cut it into the leght you wand it. Especially when you have small seeds, what not all germinate (red pepper, parsley…etc.) is it better to have tiny pots, where you can easely sort the “deaf”, empty pots out…and plant the good ones with the whole paperpot into a bigger pot, or directly out into the garden.

I plant my cucumbers along my chain link fence and encourage the plants to grow and attach to the fence.

Excellent video.
I particularly like the idea of using gardening software. Hadn’t thought of that

We used large pieces of pc pipe cut into 12 inch pieces and plant our tomatoes in these in the garden. Helps cut down on diseases, super aide in watering and fertilizing. Also supports the stems while young. Reusable for endless years!
