    for those of us that have followed john through the years, we know he has done over forty thousand informative gardening videos & he has explained numerous times over what exactly he uses in his soil mixes-from rock dust to compost etc and just about every bit of technical advice any one could ever hope for, you just happened upon one where john is rambling on a bit, but we can certainly excuse him for this rare event after all he has graciously shared with us all.&he doesn't ever self promote.
  • Thanks John! I admire your work, it has inspired me to start building my soil and grow my own foods. I want to watch all your videos!

    Love watching your videos with my wife. Because of your videos we started our own organic raised beds and they have been doing great! I actually just posted a video of our garden! Thanks!

    It is so amazing! Proper spacing is one of the factors that every gardener must know in order to have a very good progress of their plants. As I have known, some people doesn't know how to measure the spaces between their various plants. Basically, cages is really useful especially for planting tomatoes because it will help the tomato to grow straightly. It is really a good deed! Very much nice !

    My mom raised us as cutters and choosers. It was to the crumb. I have been Square Foot Gardening since Mel Bartholomew came out with the PBS show and the nice to read and easy to follow book. I found a few things worked better for me than 4x4 raised beds. A friend built me 3x12 foot beds and I loved it. Being short, it was easier for me. Now I container garden because of the contaminants in our soil. I sure do miss New Jersey gardening!
  • I had no problem understanding the title. I think some people had never heard of "square foot gardening" and took the one foot literally. Enjoyed the video.

    Convinced my mother to let me set up a raised bed or two in her garden (which is just a wilderness). Got the idea from watching your vids, I might add, though I had long been wanting to do some gardening projects. I have no outdoor areas to my name, but she does, so I figured it was about time she used the space, and I'd help her. Gonna get it done some time this week, I think. Keep up the good work, and keep the uploads coming!
