One idea to improve on the garden lights idea. Where the light and the stick are put together using zip ties, try using a rope or some kind of material to cover up the connection of the zip tie. If you have done ties with rope (macromae) do creative knots covering up tie. Also can use decorative tape, use a piece of old hoes cut on one side to slide over the stick. All kinds of uses. (Sorry on spelling, can’t remember or can say the word I wanted on knots). Macramé.?
Here’s an idea. Take a large pot you don’t use anymore. Find a saucer dish used to catch water under a pot that will fit over the opening of the pot. Choose one that’s a bit larger than opening. Decorate the inside of dish. Can paint it or use cork board cut to fit inside the saucer. Decorate the sides of pot. Now you have what can be used as a table but also can store items inside of pot. Things like small pillows. Hoes! Gardening supplies.
The wire containers to protect the plants from birds, squirrels wonderful idea. Until the plant outgrows it.
I love the shoe organizer used for growing herbs & plants
I like them all thank you !
Wowwwwwwwwwww 💯 thanks for sharing l love ❤️ this ❤️ 💖
I take old discarded carpets from neighbors' re-dos and use them to cover the pathways in my garden. No more mud and weeds in the pathway, and they break down slowly, plus keeps the old carpets out of the landfills.
I can use Hoola hoops to make a protection from deer in my flower beds!
This is a GREAT commercial! I have never been to a Garden Tree and I DO GARDENING!
Be careful planting food in plastic. Research it.
Ab solutely they are great & my friend will love them too. She iz a nov ice gardner just beginning back yard growing
#2 is my favorite as I have two uses for them. One is for growing orchids, which solves a problem trying to keep humidity during winter time indoors. Orchids air roots don’t like to soak in water, but indoor heat makes it too dry for them to grow well. The other use is adding a couple of small gold fishes to this hydroponic system providing nutrients to the plants on top as a small ecosystem.
i grew cantaloupe in tomato cages & tied up the small melons ina sling made from pantyhose. it stretched as the melons grew bigger& was sheer enough to let them ripe . Trying it with sugar baby watermelon this year!
how do you cut pool noodles into DISKS? there isnt enough material in those anemic pool noodles.
Great video
My DT doesnt carry 50% of these supplies. Sad face-
The basket too keep the rabbits away.
Need some for my flowers too. Hoola hop for pepers and tomato plants
The Irish spring have it going in or around my garden. Neat ideas spring is here what good ideas. Thank You!
Thank you for sharing, how about those chain and hook, with waste baskets to hang, a pkg of hooks the trees extend your garden.
Although not cheap, you can plant veggies directly into bags of garden soil. I tried this because I wasn't sure I had enough sunlight for a veggie patch.
I used Miracle garden soil, a small bag. (Although these bags have fertilizer in them, I still add some throughout the growing season.)
Put the soil bag flat and poke some holes in it with a screwdriver for drainage. Then turn the bag over with those holes now on the ground. Cut out a rectangle on the top of the bag and plant directly in it.
If you buy a large bag, you can plant several plants in one bag.
If you want to plant a large plant, like a big tomato, put two of the bags on top of each other. This is a little tricky because you have to cut a rectangle in the bottom bag so the plant roots will go down into the bottom bag, too. It can be done, though. (Take some soil out of the top bag and cut your hole with an box cutter. Then add the soil back in.
You can put tomato or pepper cages directly over the bags, as well.
Basically you skip having to buy a pot.
If you find you don't have a good gardening spot, you are only out the cost of the soil. You don't have to dispose of garden tubs or grow bags.
the trash can
These hacks are just wonderful
I like the shoe organizer
Love all these ideas
It's a 20 minute video, but in the next 10 minutes…🐌🐌🙈🙉🙊📡👽👽👽
25 for a noodle that’ll make a dozen rise. I love the idea of the shoe organizer or herb organizer. My back is shot so this is so exciting. I love the hula hoop trick too. I want to keep my produce clean because we have an airport near us and the chem Trail. There’s a real thing. So many good ideas. Can’t wait to go thank you. Can’t wait to see the raised bed video
Irish Spring would have worked a year or two ago. Now, you can bearly smell the soap.
Look likes some very good ideas. Trash cans for toppers for plants. Also hoola hoops and shoe organizers.
My favorite to use is the fruit baskets and the pool noodles . There's so many great things to use. I almost gave up on my gardening until I watched your video. Thank you and God Bless

Most of these are garbage, but I really appreciated the hula hoop idea. Walmart claims it's out of the 27.00 kit I had in my online basket, and the only similar product available is almost double the price. Ill be using hula hoops and cheap tule mesh cloth from the craft/sewing area to protect my brassicas like cabbage and broccoli from the cabbage worms. That's a great tip.
