I like this video. Great for beginners. It is short, straight to the point, and very descriptive for different soil types.
Thanks, sounds like she’s due a heart attack with her breathing! :S
so what your saying is roots around your plants are totally bad right?
that was a girl right?
please people give the woman a break! she’s doing it the hard way -without machinery like tractors and such most of you probably don’t have. good info about soil too
This lady is no couch potato!
Fake!
very elpfull, thanks
it’s not the root per se it’s more like the weeds that will grow up from them. And weeds near your plants compete for moisture, nutrients, minerals and light with your cultivated plants.
What happened to the plants in the background?
be very careful with where you get your potted soil and seeds
the evil corporation is up to something that you don’t know
They probably have reached the end of their lifecycle. Looks like corn, which usually dries up after seeding.
What about rocks? I’ve been searching high and low for a video on what to do with these big rocks I’m finding in the bed I made. What’s the tool for that?
What??
O.o
I know about the seeds but what about the soil, what are they doing to the potting soil? Know what companys to avoid or where I can find more info on what they are doing to the potting soil?
Creating good soil is essential for any garden. In order for plants to grow, the soil must have a good balance of all the crucial components. Each area has a different kind of soil, which must be taken into account when creating good gardening soil. Different plants need different kinds of soil as well, which you must know before you create your garden soil.
did anyone else notice her loud panting, very distracting…
ExpertVillage should find some people that are less nervous infront of the camera. It took me a couple times of watching this video to actually learn something. She was to distracting, herself.
I liked her. She was informative, straight to the point and matter of fact. I huff and puff when I’m working out in my garden too. This was more enjoyable and dynamic to me than the usual expert village videos
yeah
Thats a very ugly yard. All you should do is determine what area you want to be garden, make a barrier around it, dig 10 inches in the area, take out the weeds & grass, poor any soil (i use organic) then put your plants down in a organize pattern with reasonable space. Cover in dirt & your done. Water day & night
if her breathing is distractive then you need more vitamins & exercise to improve your sense of focus.
I like her no-nonesense style
