#robbieandgarygardeningeasy

Hi it’s Robbie from Southern California and this is a dog kennel you can get them for under $300 I actually saw them as low as 220 this year so they fluctuate this could be the answer to some of your problems this is really a

Nice dog run I was so excited with it I almost bought two now this has got the door here I’m going to show you everything you need to know in a few minutes but you can go in here and put everything you want in there let me show you when it came you

Know what let me let me explain something first I bought this last year and I never got around to putting it together I had so many other projects going that I decided to wait and the longer I waited we got into almost winter we went into fall and it was too

Late then I also listened to a lot of your issues you had you had rodents you had raccoons you had possums you had dogs that would jump and knock everything over and by listening to all that I gathered enough information to think this could be the answer yes

You’re going to have to invest some money if you buy a new one without a doubt but we invest money every day in certain things that we absolutely need we buy groceries we buy toilet paper we buy clothes we have bills every month this is a one-time purchase though you

May have to get maybe a different tarp you may want to tweak it and that’s what I’m going to talk about in a minute cuz some of you are going to go no this won’t work it will work it will work for almost every issue you’ve got I think

It’s a good investment there’s a possibility I’ll get a second one though you know I’ve got so much food growing it’s really not that important but there’s so many things you could do with this I could cover this whole thing and make it a full Greenhouse so in the

Winter I could grow vegetables in here and in in the summer and spring I could grow my other vegetables for outside let me show you how easy it is first to put it together but before we step into that keep in mind this is a dog run and I

Have seen them as low as $35 when people don’t need them anymore they buy these when they get a new dog and once the dog is you know a year old older it’s a custom to the family it follows you around it’s got some training with them

A lot of people give these away or sell them cheap and that is another way you can get them really cheap check your local papers you’ve got online services like next door check that because I have seen them cheap I have turned them away for

$35 but now that I had thought about it I wanted to start with something new but explain that you can get them used so keep that in mind and I think it’s good if you can get one where you can walk down the middle so let me show you real

Quick How Gary put it together and how easy it is that anybody could do it anybody almost any age and well let’s just get right into that so here is the dog kennel or the dog run that I picked up at Walmart again I have nothing to do

With Walmart I found it online and when I bought it it was close to $300 it was like 268 let’s say $280 with tax and it looked really nice they had a lot of good reviews and they do come in different sizes I went with the one that

Was 8 foot long they’re all six foot tall in this style I’ll put you know you’ll be able I’ll put a picture of it where you can go look at it but I went with the 8ft long which means you’re got four panels on each side and then you’ll

Have two and two because they’re like twoot panels to put this together the entire thing took Gary 20 minutes it was that easy and I had him put it together because you know how I want him to do videos oh that’s cork see how they stick these little sticky things on there

That’s that’s perfect so they don’t bang on each other and scratch up and it’s best for packing and it worked really good I think it was packed really well so now he’s looking at all the bolts it comes with everything the bolts and the brackets and they’re very easy to put

Together you’re going to put one on each side top and bottom and it fits on each side there’s a bracket goes underneath you know on one side bracket on the other and then you just put your your nut and bolt in there or your wing nut see and then he just kind of

Flings it around and that’s all there is to it it’s really quick you don’t need a hammer or anything just uh basically nothing so he did this all the way around but I thought it was a really really good price I have seen it fluctuate so keep that in mind and be

Careful if you decide to order one because you could accidentally hit the one that says 6 foot and then you’ll only get three panels on each side which may be enough for you but I I want a little more room and the biggest one was eight and I think 8T is perfect and

There it is you can see them a little closer I’ll slow it down off and on you didn’t need to watch this for 20 minutes though if you want to see it I do have the whole thing and I could put that up but see how it goes

On and he stood it up himself I didn’t even hold it for him he did the whole thing he stood it up and then he put the bracket on the top and the bottom and you’ll see here see it’s two pieces like a puzzle one on one side one on the

Other it holds the bar in perfect and then you just screw it together see so that’s one side of the screw and then you’ve got the the bolt on the other side with the wing nut on it and he went through each one and you can see clearly here how there’s four

Panels on each side think of it as two foot panels so You’ you’ve got four and then you’ve got two and two there is only one way to put the door on but you can turn the whole thing around we put it this way and then Gary and I lifted

It and turned it cuz I wanted the door the other way then you got the top brackets already put together you just slide them in the post and there’s nothing to it see and again it comes with that puzzle little bracket and you put that on and then you put the wing

Nut on and it came with enough bolts for that everything worked out really good it’s a I guess you would call it a poter coat paint it’s in black and I know it’s going to weather but this is you know to make a garden and I think it’s going to be really

Cool and he put that together and then he’s got a bar I believe that’s going to go down the center because it did come with a plastic type of top is it going to last no but you know you can go to Harbor Freight or order online a tarp a

Real cheap one later and maybe you’ll want to go clear on this Gary ordered some Greenhouse clear fabric there’s a lot for himself he’s building something and you can put anything you want later you may want to wire it because that’s what we’re going to talk about more but

There it is I think it’s really cool it’s got a latch if you’re just dealing with dogs you know then that’s all you need and then here it came with these stretchy ties and you just put it through the rivets that are there the eye rivets and you put the little ball

Through there and then you just pull it and that holds the tarp down now can you buy extra tarps when this wears out I don’t know I I didn’t see them I’m assuming you might be able to but like I said I might want to do something completely different I may want

Something clear see so that’s all you need to do and then you just put it through each and every one and the top is on there really nice and snug and it’s fitted it’s made to fit on there the door is wide enough for me to get

Through so I know you can get through and now we just kind of fitted it on but it was like really one two three to put it in and you’ll see here when he opens up the latch he can he has to bend to go in cuz it’s only about maybe

6t tall there 5 foot tall I should say but look in the middle you can stand so it will depend on how you want to set it up is it wheelchair accessible probably not wide enough but to walk in there you can put a little stool in

There to sit down and then they’ve got these little caps so it doesn’t fill with water it’s kind of to make it neat and clean and those you just kind of push on it’s kind of a little Finishing Touch and that went on on all the square

Poles and that’s all there is to it it has a lot of potential it has a lot of goodness to it I’m very excited with it I have so many ideas but there it is all set up I think it’s really cool right now it’s just sitting on the hard pack

Soil we’ve got the clay with the wood chips underneath that Gary put there a while ago and I’m looking at it and I’m analyzing it but I think it’s a really nice unit for between $2 and $300 it’s it could just think of all the foods you

Can grow in there so now you saw how easy it was put together it was nothing with nothing I could have done it myself but hey I want to get Gary in the videos you know I want him to participate too okay that sounds like an excuse it might be but it worked

Anyways the thing is I want you to look at this don’t think this is nonsense and think about your issues if you’re not gardening if you’re gardening and it’s working don’t don’t change what you’re doing I don’t want you to spend money if you don’t have to but let me show you

Something on how easy this is to put things in here I’ve got a chair if I wanted to put something on a chair I’m not sure exactly yet how I’m going to set this [Applause] up kidding me I found the chair that doesn’t fit okay there it

Goes so I could put a chair in here I could compost in place here and let’s grab a tote real quick so you can see just how much you can put in [Applause] here now this is just the start I don’t really plan on putting totes in here okay

That’s not really my thought but you could put grow bags in here you could put buckets in here I’m going to set this up with Dish pans because dish pans like a bucket that is five gallons a dish pan is 4 and A2 you can get the

Smaller ones at Dollar Tree you could put shelves you could put brackets you could put anything you have around the house and then start to do it your way this is not a oneway fits all this is a thing that’s going to be the way you need it now if you

Are only dealing with your dog that gets into everything knocks everything over this is your answer now if you’ve got a digger you may want to put this on cement I’m actually going to put stepping stones that you pick up for a dollar a piece at the store at the

Hardware stores and I’m going to put uh cement Stepping Stones all the way around so if a rodent comes through let’s say a squirrel they’ll start to dig and they can’t get in I also have ideas because I have a lot of tote Lids I may line the bottom with tote lids

And leave it that way now I may put tool on here too now if you’ve got bigger problems of course you could do other things you can get a roll a quinch wire and you could zip tie that on all over and the only thing that we be able to

Get in there is your small little flies maybe pollinators small ones but you won’t have any rodents this will eliminate rodents if you want to cover it with quinch wire now keep in mind everything you do when once you do it is a one-time do now tool you may have to

Do that every year but I’m going to show you tool that you can get so cheap you may be able to do the whole thing for close to $10 20 at the tops tool will keep out a lot of things this is why you

Have to look at this and see what it is you want to do because I can just use this and protect it from let’s say squirrels and rabbits rabbits remember they’re not a big thing to me because a lot of my garden is up on a chair and

Rabbits don’t really jump that high but squirrels do so you have to step back now you say well I have raccoons raccoons get get in here but they can get their little hands in there and pull so keep that in mind so in certain areas where you’ve got your plants you may

Want to put something there so they can’t reach it but this will eliminate your raccoons they cannot get through this so if that’s your big problem you can work it out with the raccoons this way you can work it out with the dogs this way cats no cats getting into your

Food you know that you’re growing if that’s your issue you want pollinators in there keep some of it open now like I said this is just a plastic top it’s a kind of a fabric plastic but I think it’s going to eventually break down it should last good for one season you can

Buy tarps at a lot of hardware stores and then you can zip tie it on or put it on with the ties next year if it breaks down you could put a top on you could put a regular roof on it it’s got so many different potential things to it

Bears I have Bears I don’t have Bears so many a few of you have come in and so you got Bears I have mountain lions I got Bobcats but I don’t have Bears if you really have bears and you really really want a garden you could get those

Electric wires that they put on chicken coops and different things and you can set that they’re not going to want want to try to get through electricity and you can have that hooked up where they’ll get zapped and leave alone make sure you don’t use a lot of food manner

That’s going to attract them in your compost do your compost someplace else that’s only for bears for everything else I think this is going to be a dream I’m so excited but you know what I want you to do because I’m going to be setting this up in the next few weeks

Little by little and what’s wonderful is I get to set it up and then I get to step back and go ah I want to do it differently I can take it all apart and do it again what I want you to do is

Tell me how you would set one up what if you put one on your Pao in your yard in your garden this thing is so light you can put this thing look at this you could put it on Deck you could put it anywhere you want on a balcony if you

Have a really big balcony it’s really light I want to know what your issue is your big problems why you can’t garden and what you need done done what would have to go on here to stop your problem I will read through all that and see but

I think this is really something you can use it looks classy I think it looks really nice hey if it should rust get a little spray paint black spray paint later on the ear paint it if it bothers you this is so cool you can hang things

On the outside you know Planters you can put here and flowers you can bring the pollinators in you could just fence around the bottom if you don’t have big issues step back and look at it you know you can grow a lot in here you know how many

Dish pans are you only need a small area you can grow lettuce you could grow celery in here you radish carrots brassas you could set up a tote and grow zucchini in here you can grow watermelon you can grow everything you want just here’s the thing you’ll have to do you

Will have to limit yourself to only the food you like you’re not going to be able to experiment with a lot of stuff you don’t know if you like it cuz you’re not going to have the room for that but you’re going to have the room for your

Favorite things my favorite thing jeez you know I like zucchini but I love growing lettuce and my birds get in there sometimes and nibble on it and different things but if I was only dealing with lettuce in here and worried about a few little birds on that I could

Tool just my lettuce and still leave it open and I’m not going to have raccoons get in here I’m not going to have much of anything get in here but again you may want to wire it or quarter inen wire you could go partway up you could do the

Whole thing there’s a lot of stuff but I want to hear what you have to say because I think this could be the perfect small space mini garden for so many of you CU you don’t have to grow any more than for you and your family

And there is a good potential in here to grow a lot of that I think this is so fun it’s easy to get in and out of I was so excited when I thought about this last year but I never got around to it because I’ve got a dozen plus other

Gardens I was working on this year I was determined to get this up so it’s up here now and as I’m setting it up in the next week or two I want to be reading through your comments on what you think you don’t like it tell me you don’t like

It maybe you don’t need it I don’t need it but I’m doing this for fun yet I almost bought a second one so think about it I’m going to read through and see what you say because I think there is an answer for pretty much everything

And in here you would put a couple watering cans right when you walk in so the first thing you do is just grab your watering can and water your plants you can have some soil in there or have your soil someplace else but these dish pants

You know what I I grow potatoes I’ve got to harvest potatoes right now that’s in there I wouldn’t waste my time lining this up with potatoes except if that’s all you wanted to grow if you only want to grow potatoes and you like new little potato and this is the perfect thing but

I would put more effort into growing the greens cuz greens is so important for our body and putting that in there and growing maybe your spinach if you like it or lettuce or different types of brasas different types of kale collared you could grow a lot of stuff in here

And like I said my mind is just going crazy on this and you could get it off the ground you can put it on the ground depending on how we set it up but there’s a lot we can do so tell me what you think this is going to be to me

Fantastic and cheap where are you going to get a garden now I’ll tell you what a lot of people you know this small doing so much for you A lot of people now are using these for chicken coops they absolutely love them they’ve been getting five stars for chicken coops

People have used it for their dogs and once their dog got used to their new home they didn’t have a use for it they threw chickens in here this is fantastic for chickens but we’ve got our own chicken coop but for gardening I think this could be the

Answer and if I wanted to I could put a beautiful pond in here decorate it up put Plants all around it open the door during the day and at night I can lock this door and keep the raccoons out of my pond because I love ponds by having

It this way the dragonflies could go in there they could lay their eggs that’s what I’m saying there’s so many things we could do with a nice dog C so I’m going to be waiting for your comments and I’m going to see what you have to say about it but I’m I’m excited

And I’m sure you’re waiting to see what I’m going to do with it I’m still thinking but I’ve got tons of ideas so with that you have a wonderful day and don’t forget to eat to eat what you grow lettuce zucchini I can grow in there and

Hummingbirds I can hang some really cool hummingbird feeders off of this too bye-bye oh I love this I so love this oh and I didn’t even tell them if they wanted it longer they can get a second one don’t put the back panels on and run it straight through and you can

Have the 16 ft long I was thinking about that

  1. I get over run with insects…..I'm thinking to put mesh wire around it. I keep tearing the tulle. But I have to think of pollinators as well?

  2. Wow. Your video showed up and you solved a problem I've been having for years. My hubby started feeding stray kittens outside and as time passes the 10 cats stomp on everything I tried to grow.They layed down on my potted sugar peas killing them. Now I can garden again!!! At only 6 feet tall I dont need HOA approval because it cant be seen over my fence. This is a great sturdy solution for me. Thanks for posting

  3. I could buy 2 of them and use the other one for a chicken run for a couple of chickens. If I put them side by side, I could plant along the one side to feed the chickens. I am so excited!

  4. You could hang some racks from the top to have more room for your veg starts. On one side so you can still walk past. I do it in my green house. Then take it down when your finished.

  5. I have 2 lg (70lb) dogs, the younger one we adopted as a companion to our older dog… she taught him how to dig, ugh!! We built raised beds but… the younger dog (Blossom) jumps on/into them! She moves the wood from the wood pile to "her spot" on the lawn (you get the idea) so I think your idea is AWESOME!! I'd like to have chickens but I think that's for after the obedience training! I am… ever hopeful!

  6. I think inwould hang strawberries in a gutter around it and as it is watered the runoffnwould drip into lettuce or even perhaps grow grape vine?
