1. A raised bed, by itself, will not keep mint in check. 2. Oregano, if it's happy, also spreads like wildfire. 3. The plant shown as thyme is actually rosemary. 4. And yes, the flowers shown as marigolds are actually zinnias.

1. Thank for watching! You are correct, mint and oregano, and a few others spread like crazy👍 2. Yep, my editor got the thyme mixed up, it happens, he's human. I didn't fire him.🤷♂️ 3. Last shot is B-roll over our Herb bed, the Marigolds got cut off.. 4. Sometimes I'm ok with leaving mistakes in the video because, well in most cases, I'll have at least 15hours into producing the video, so we have to cut it off somewhere, and well it's free content. 5. As a bonus, it's takes a LOT of Work and more importantly Time(not thyme) to build a channel that truly reaches enough people to try and make a difference and make a positive impact in this world, engagement on videos matter. So, more times than not, if I leave a "mistake" in a video, it gets more engagement because some people just can't help but point out other peoples mistakes.😉 So from the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU!!😁 Welcome to the channel, I hope it was helpful, or at the very least somewhat entertaining.👍🤙✌️

I noticed the same; I think there are marigolds planted below the zinnia.

This excites me because I'm a huge fan of fresh herbs and even have them onboard in pots, Sage, Rosemary, Thyme, Peppermint, Basil, Parsley. I did some pots of zucchini and lettuces too. Luckily out boat has a nice aft cabin top that allowed some space. I wish I could post pictures here of our garden last year.

Are zinnias beneficial companion plants? They grow better in my colder climate. At the end when you mentioned marigolds, your video showed zinnias.

Yes, Zinnias are a great companion for HERBS and veggies. They attract the pollinators and repel the Beetles. There are Marigolds in the bed as well, they just weren't in the clip.👍

can you talk about how the roots of each of these herbs grows out and does it effect what you can plant in the same bed with each herb? should i plant my herbs together but in seperate soil from my vegtables? or can i plant my herbs in the same soil as my vegtables. currently i have chive and thym in the center of my raised bed dividing it somewhat in half, i have done this to use it as pest repellent

Great question, and a good idea for future content. I typically plant in the same bed, unless there is a known disadvantage for that specific crop. In many cases the roots are beneficial for their companion. Whether it be for drainage, flavor inhancement, or pest repellent. Certain herbs, like mint, are very invasive. Those I suggest planting close but in a separate bed or container. Hope that helps a little. 👍

Hi. How would you counter what some say about basil attracting spider mites?
@SimplisticFarms
Жыл бұрын
Well I'm no expert, but I would say strategically used as a trap crop to keep the spider mites off of you other crops is a good idea. Marigolds can be used in much of the same way. It's not always about repeling the pests and sometimes about managing the natural pests that are already there.

Hi I live in the tropics and it's currently the rainy season and I'm about to grow some bottle gourd, luffa and winged beans, what would be a good companion herb? I'm feeling it's gonna be basil, the seed seller gave me free neapolitano again.

That is a great question! One herb that will pair well with all three is Oregano and should do great in your climate. I hope that helps, good luck!👍

Hi, companion planting g is interesting. However the flowers in the video are Zinnias and not Marigolds. Is there some sort of mix up or did I somehow not see the marigolds?
