Hey Gardeners!  Here is the latest video on setting up a simple sub irrigation planter, without all of the extra rigamarole of typical SIP’s, using a kiddie pool and grow bags.  In Part 1 of the four part series, we level the pool, discuss materials, and demonstrate how to set up a simple float assembly for automated watering. Part 2 covers how to fill up the bags, and show how to use multiple size grow bags in the same pool. Part 3 shows how to plant corn in this system of growing and how to keep your plants erect from high winds. The last part will be a few weeks down the road as we show growth, cover any problems that might arise and how we dealt with them. We will also show the pretty simple build for keeping varmits out of the corn!

Please feel free to ask questions.  I will do my best to answer as quickly as possible. We’d love to have you join our FaceBook group; you can find the link at the top or bottom of the blog. Please consider subscribing to our YouTube channel, as well. Thanks!

I hope you find the video series useful and get a good laugh in, too!

Yours truly,

Mrs. Farmer Brown
