okay. I built a square foot garden last year. Honestly, still I have a North garden that is still the old fassion way. Nevertheless, my square foot garden did not do a good job at all. My old fasion garden produces better veggies then the square foot garden.

I would recommend square foot gardening only if you grow the right vegetables. I can give you a few that will not turn out as well. Tomatoes, Cucumbers, probably corn, but not quite sure judged on my own experience. Never tried Pumpkins so close but that is a no brainer not to do.

I have a question let say you use Mel’s mix…
And put a condo for the worm…
Would you have to change the earth after couple of year?
Or the worm would be enough for fertilizing ?
thanks

@vorpalbla you’re right. Mel Bartholomew which is the “inventor” of the squarefoot garden states that the square grid is only on top and is only to identify equal areas for plant to grow and does not seperate the soil/roots. yolanda vanveen is a retard, she has several videos where she talks bogus crap like for example saying wheat has no gluten and she has pea plants calling them green beans. i can email links since it wont allow you to post them

@vorpalbla Great video, hope you can find the time to check out my square foot garden, it’s doing great!

This is not accurate. The veggies are not “separated from each other” by the “barriers,” which merely rest on the surface of the soil; the grid serves simply to remind the gardener of what is where.

The advantage to eating as much local as you can is that farmers who ship always select varieties made for withstanding a long time in a truck. You and local farmers can choose varieties that are delicious and nutritious but might not hold up. Much or varieties!

Its because they import them from different parts of the world. When shopping at a super market all of the food there comes form a distance greater than 1000 miles. Start shopping at farmers markets.

You can grow indoors using artificial lights that can be put on timer to mimic the spring/summer/fall/winter. For example 16h light / 8 dark, then 12h /12h to make the plant flower. You can do this yourself organically in your home and use the dirt and “compost tea” from a wormbin as fertilizer. Hydroponics and aeroponics will grow the faster then in dirt.

They are trucked in from other areas that have different climates. You could try growing in a greenhouse. That’s really the only option.

Does anyone use Growbags (Combination of coco peat and/or husk chips) to grow Tomato’s? Growbags are 100% natural and environmentally sustainable, used widely in the industry due to the benefits of the product for Tomato growing…
Help protect our environment, use environmentally friendly products.

Its because we get our produce from all over the world where the climates are different.

It’s because grocery stores import fruits and vegetables from different countries.

Okay there’s just one thing I want to know. How come groceries stores have every kind of crop all the time, but when I try to grow them myself they only grow during a certain season. I know it’s because they use chemicals but is there any organic method that can make them grow all the time.
