I love getting insights into how you get such wonderful plants. I can see somethings I can do better. I also have my plants growing in the basement and I think I need to get a heat lamp for them. The fan is a good idea too. I love how it will mimic a slight breeze, making the young plants stronger and ready for outdoor growth. I love!love!love! seeing the whole process, starting at seeds and ending with tasty vegetables. Great video, thanks! THANK YOU! I love getting insights into how you get such wonderful plants.

I like your "bad, good, better, best" categories, I've never found anything where they defined it like that. I just have a basic companion chart on our site http://www.landshareco.org/growing-ideas/companion-plants/ as a resource for the users of our online garden & farm planning software (the Fantastic Farm & Garden Calculator). Your site is a nice resource! Glad to see so many people into growing their own food! Jim Looks like a cool idea, but there are no drop downs for me in Pages ‘09.

I'd like to sign up for your newsletter for the green zone, but there doesn't seem to be a link or a button on our near where it says "Newsletter Signup" at the top right. Am I overlooking something? Or maybe it's my browser(Firefox)? Hi.

If you used potting soil with plant food (ie: fertilizer) in it, you shouldn't need to add anything for at least a month. If not, maybe 2 weeks after they germinate. I fertilize every 4-6 weeks.

This is the first year I've left my parsley over the winter. The only problem I have is that I usually plant it in a new place every year (I'm always experimenting with different garden layouts), and it gets bigger than one square the second year. It’s true!

It will grow for two years and then die. you would then need to replant it the 3rd year to start the cycle all over again. Parsely is a biannual.

So I became a fan of square foot gardening last year when I tried it and it um actually worked for me!!! Whoo hoo. My brown thumbs could never have been greener. I actually fell I can do this stuff. Anyhoo, I found your site and LOVE it. I refer to it a lot and as a thanks I thought I would share another web site with you that I have found to be very interesting. This guy does a lot of little tests on the best of this and that and gardening is a big area for him. Here is a link where he show which indoor lighting method is the best and why. The results are impressive and have me totally convinced. He goes about things in a VERY scientific un biased way. He even has a link on the best tasting tomato viarieties... my personal fav. Enjoy http://www.waynesthisandthat.com/fluorescent.html -Brook Hope you really like it :) Hi there.

]]> Comment on How to Build a Drip Irrigation System by peio revuelta http://www.mysquarefootgarden.net/irrigation/comment-page-1/#comment-738 peio revuelta Fri, 12 Mar 2010 22:38:36 +0000 http://www.mysquarefootgarden.net/?p=896#comment-738 It is a useful information about drip irrigation. I am a farmer and we have very large fields, before drip irrigation system was found it was a nightmare to irrigate all those fields because where i live is a place that does not rain so much. Now we use drip irrigation, saving so many water and it is a lot easier to irrigate the field with that. I am trying to read everything about drip irrigation and i recommend every farmer to use that technique, so i am grateful for everyone who gives information about it. I also found a very good guide about drip irrigation and it may be useful too for those who want to learn more information about that; http://agricultureguide.org/ It is a useful information about drip irrigation.
