What do you do with the soil in the containers after your last harvest of the plants? I've heard not to reuse it. Can you just amend it and reuse it?

would the same size container/1 plant per pot be the same more something like broccoli or brussel sprouts?

Quick question Do you water watermelons every two days or every 4 days

Can you plant cabbage any time of the year?

Hey MIgardener, I just wanted to ask for your advice on my soil ratio for my Serrano pepper plant. I'm growing it indoors from a seed and I picked up some stuff to help it out. Right now I'm planning on using a mixture of regular potting mix, some Ecoscraps vegetable fertilizer, a store bought bag of compost, and some sand. How much would you use, if any, of each to give the plant it's biggest chance of survival?

These guides are so complete and informative :-)

Great tip, always thought cabbage need to be in the ground. Will give this a try

Do you give trifecta to your trees when transplanting in the ground or in general

MUFF CABBAGE!

Thank you for explaining this issue. I'm having an issue with my tomatoes, green beans,peppers leaves ' are curling like the tip of the old fashioned elf shoes. It's a new raised bed this year with compost from a horse ranch. Thanks

Hey I was just wondering is it to late to plant seed at this time I'm in Wisconsin close to the border of Michigan?

How often do you fertilize?

At 7:30 it sounded like you were giving a recipe for a work out smoothie. lol

hi there!you don't mention when to sow the seeds???

thank you for this. do you have any info on potato towers? I am thinking container growing us for me.

That's what happened with my cabbage the one year I planted, not enough sun in my garden area. I had the cabbage planted in the wrong spot. Ah well, no garden plot in this year, I'll have to wait until we move to the family farm to plant again, anything I grow now is all in pots and I'm not doing cabbage in a pot. LoL

Yes, another way I grow cabbage successfully is by planting them in containers. It works and solves the lack of space problem:-)

I'm growing mini cabbages in containers over winter - they're looking fantastic!

Hi Luke, really enjoy watching your videos, they are so informative. Just a quick question regarding the use of Calcium in growing cabbages. I read its very important to provide extra to avoid clubroot. Any thoughts on this?

I was just wondering to myself the other day if I could grow cabbage in a container. You answered my dilemma! Thanks for the great tips! You're the best Luke!
