• Forget Square Foot Gardening

  Square foot gardening changed the way millions of people grew food, but it’s time to take things further. In this video, I’ll show you why my square inch gardening method is more sustainable, more productive, and produces more beautiful garden results than the grid system that’s been popular since the 1980s. I’ll walk you through how I learned to garden by observing nature, why circular “plate planting” creates healthier layouts than rigid squares, and how this method makes harvesting and tending your plants so much easier. You’ll also see how my soil mix is a lighter, more eco-friendly alternative to the classic recipe, while still giving you incredible results. If you’ve ever felt boxed in by the square foot gardening grid, this video will show you a fresh way to design your beds so they mimic nature, maximize your harvest, and look gorgeous in every season.  IN THIS VIDEO: ➝ Learn the Gardenary Planting Method: https://gardenary.samcart.com/products/gardenary-planting-method-limited-time ➝ Shop the Easy Garden Kit: https://gardenary.samcart.com/products/easy-garden-kit ➝ Visit the Gardenary Shop: https://shop.gardenary.com/discount/YOUTUBE (use code YOUTUBE for 10% off!)

• Don’t Plant ANYTHING in October Until You Watch This

  Don’t plant a single seed this October until you know whether you’re a “number one” or a “number two” gardener. In this video, I’ll help you answer that question by figuring out your climate zone for October, and then show you exactly what to plant this month so you don’t waste time, seeds, or energy. If you’re a number one gardener (frost already hit or on the way), I’ll show you the best quick-growing, frost-hardy crops to plant right now. Plants like lettuce, spinach, radishes, carrots, and beets. These plants love cool soil and can give you harvests well into late fall (especially if you use frost cloth protection). If you’re a number two gardener (no frost yet and maybe none all year), you’re in luck! October is your chance to grow bigger, longer-season crops like kale, Swiss chard, napa cabbage, mustards, arugula, and even fruiting crops like sugar snap peas and fava beans. Plus, you can add calendula for color and natural pest control. And no matter where you garden, there’s one thing everyone should plant in October… garlic.(it’s so fun and so rewarding!) Most of these crops are part of our Easy Garden Kit, which walks you step by step through planting, tending, and harvesting, plus setting up raised beds and creating my favorite soil mix. I’ll link it below so you can grab yours. So before you put anything in your beds this October, watch this video and plant with confidence!
