Fwiw, he used far too many pebbles. He needs to redo the experiment w just an inch or 2 of pebbles but mixed w the soil, and with growing plants until they fill the container. 40 years of container growing tells me it does make a difference if you do it right. But no, you don’t have to, depending on what you are growing. If you are growing lavender, or other similar herbs, it’s a necessity in my area anyway and makes ALL the difference in a long lasting, beautiful, successful plant. I would never use a ratio of more stone to soil though like he did. A little goes a long way.

I would love to have you consider doing a story on a community garden I started in Meridian Idaho 14 years ago! The garden provides fresh produce for the local food banks, teaches new gardeners how to garden, has developed a pollinator garden and works within the city parks system. They have been amazingly successful! I left 6 years ago- but they are still on my heart. You can find them on FB at Meridian Co-op Gardeners

Thanks for this video! I live in Charleston, SC in a 1-BR apartment. Fortunately, I have one of the apartments that has a nice size Front & Back cement porches (ground floor)! I have mostly 5-gal. buckets for containers. I'm growing flowers & vegetables in them. I do not have an outside faucet, so I have to hand water (gallon jug). But that gives me time to check out the plants & see how they're doing. We're in Zone 8b, so we have mild winters (until Feb. & March). My Summer crops are still going strong, & I just planted my Late Summer ones out. I have seedlings under a grow light for my Fall garden (greens), and they're doing great. They'll be going outside in the next month or so. I've lived here 10 years, and I think this will be the most I've grown (at one time) this year!!

What a great video! Best take-away? Lining w/ bubble wrap! Phenomenal! My own new lesson this year? If container is going to sit on wood, ie a deck, drill the drainage holes on the sides about an inch up from the bottom. This will prevent mould/mildew/rot underneath as it drains thru the wood.

Use pots for growing our herbs so that they are right outside our door as we have a large patio. When cooking we can take a few steps to get fresh herbs for cooking or snacking on while enjoying the day.

Yes, it was on PBS until this last couple of months when they drop some programs and replace them with other programs like the woman who makes curtains for her chicken's nest boxes, and small ceramic tea cups for their treats. Waste of time. I watched GGW religiously. So glad I thought to check KZitem.

You put way too many stones in your example. You put no more than half/one inch. For my larger plants I use tiny pumice stones with the soil. I stopped using soil like miracle grow and others from large box stores. Go to a local nursery and buy your soil and mulch there. I have notice a HUGE difference in my garden and indoor plants. Thanks

I am a new follower! . I am really enjoying and learning a lot. This one was Fantastic. I had a thought while watching which I would like to share if I may ? I was keen to know the outcome of comparing drainage with or without stones at the bottom of a container and was going to alter my practice based on the outcome. However I was a bit surprised that more stones were added than usual for no obvious reason and also random amounts of water poured. For authenticity and for more reliable outcomes , could have simulated normal planting conditions re: quantity of stones and amount of water added. I guess have to do it myself!

Mr. Lamp'l, please don't advocate using plastics (including Styrofoam), be it pots, liners, etc. Using plastics in your garden is basically putting highly processed petrochemicals in your garden. Plastics are non-biodegradable and many find their way into the ocean or poor countries. (1) They will also stay in your garden for your and others' lifetimes. John Oliver recently did an expose on the danger of plastics as pollutants, in which he notes that less than 8% of plastics are recycled. (see Last Week Tonight March 21, 2021) Moreso, plastics increase the demand for oil. Plastics are manufactured mostly from oil, and they increase off-shore drilling; oil companies trying to ruin our national parks and deface the lands of native peoples; fracking; and other environmentally unsound practices. (2) We need to be more environmentally conscious, which entails consumers demanding and using more environmentally safe materials: terra cotta, coconut fiber, glass, wood, burlap, silicone, etc. Plastics also disrupt a lot of natural processes, for instance, plastic liners prevent nutrients from reaching soil when a mulch not only provides many of the same benefits, but also provides biomass nutrients that are good for plants. I'm still trying to wean myself off of, particularly, mult-use plastics (I have my fleet of seedling pots, used over again every year), but a true organic gardener will work to find other solutions than plastic. (1)www.businessinsider.com/malaysia-town-plastic-waste-china-photos-2019-2 (2) e360.yale.edu/features/the-plastics-pipeline-a-surge-of-new-production-is-on-the-way
