Wondering if I can put these boxes on my cement side yard. My yard is small so I try to find more spaces to grow food. Perhaps waist high boxes will be better.

Hey John … I eat raw rhubarb all the time. Is it just the leaves that are toxic or am I poisoning myself? thx

I found the same selection at my local Lowes and I have to say, my onion and garlic bulbs have REALLY taken off, very quick and healthier than I imagined they would turn out. I have a few earthboxes full of peppers, squash, onion, garlic, purple basil, hot spicy oregano, cilantro, and the list goes on. I’m excited to see what my 2012 garden does, last year was a great first experience at growing my own organic vegetables and herbs. Keep the vids coming, love them all!.

are the cedar and redwood boxes treated with any rot-proofing oil? If they are, im hoping its with the rosewood oil like in your other video, and not some toxic chemical.

I think what makes sweet onions sweet is the type if soil they’re grown in, such as volcanic soil in Hawaii. Don’t know what’s in the soil in Vidalia, Ga, though!

You’re awesome. I’m going to try building some raised beds this year. What is your drip irrigation watering schedule? What size are your drippers? Like, 1-2 gallon / hour flow rate? If you’ve answered this before please forward the link? Thanks.
Oh, try growing gobo this year.

I found topsy turveys for tomato, strawberries, and peppers at Big Lots on sale for $1 each.

Hey John,
Thanks for the videos. By the way, Rhubarb is edible raw and if you like tart flavors, it is awesome. However, it is only the stalk that we are supposed to consume. I even tried chopping and drying the stalks then blending them for a tart powder to use as a topping for sweet fruit, so delicious.

I see why you feature Home Depot, it really takes away the excuses people have about getting started. However, there is nothing wrong with partnering with mail-order companies who pay you to review products – your reviews are straight forward and helpful.

For all that are wondering, I am NOT sponsored by Home Depot. I make videos that can help people grow more food – where ever and whatever I believe may be helpful for others. If they found out I was video recording in their store, they might ask me to stop recording.. It has happened before..

I did a quick google search and found out that Seeds of Change is owned by the Mars company. Boo Hoo! I find High Mowing Seeds a great resource for organic seeds.

I just watched a BBC feature about starving children who attend Whitney Elementary School in Las Vegas. Their parents cannot afford to buy food, and school lunches are about the only meal they might get during the week. Wouldn’t it be so lovely to supply these guys with seeds and fresh vegetables and get them growing at school, too?

John,
As always love your videos. Starting my first garden this year and have ordered some books but have a stupid question. What is the advantage of using raised beds? I just figured I’d go in the backyard and pull out the grass. I still have to figure out what to buy/add to make it decent planting soil. Honestly, didn’t think about a raised bed until I seen your videos.
Thanks,!!!

Hey. Thanks for the response. I’m actually using wine barrels for dwarf
fruit trees in the driveway, but it looked like the square bins had more
surface area. I’ll definitely consider the barrels, though. Good idea.
Thanks!

Great info John as always WE all appreciate the time you dedicate to sharing with us.
You have inspired me the last few years to grow my Square foot garden to 600 sq ft AND take the sod out of our front yard last summer. The neighbors are amazed that we are turning our useless lawn into food production. Hey, I have to have fresh organic stuff to juice. Keep the videos coming.

I just got home from the Depot getting some garden supplies. The one near me had 1/2 whiskey barrel planters from Jack Daniels for $20!!!! I now have three 🙂

as far as the dogs, you can take a dog into any Home Depot as long as it is not aggressive.

7″ isn’t enough to grow anything without digging in the soil below or using chemical fertilizers… These Home Depot kits are cheap but also low quality.
