- For more information, call Leon at 580-564-5909. Thank you for your support of the scholarship fund. And don't forget to order a t-shirt. Thanks for watching and happy gardening.
Leon, complaining is a hobby for some folks. You do you so we can learn more about gardening 👩🌾
Totally agree, Leon, you remind me of my family in Lubbock TX. Bless you!!
Leon CZcams videos always have complaints no matter how true, honest or informative it is. Your videos are saving the world and people in a small way, so complaints do not matter or count. I’ll watch your videos a dozen times with every add that shows for the kids scholarship fund.
ECHO that..
Ditto!
I Love His ideas I built plenty of five gallons the buckets I got it free from my brothers work They throw away thousands of them I showed them How to utilized it this way now my siblings nephews nieces are all doing it save the earth we also collect plastic Water bottles Thank you Leon for your ingenius ideas God Bless keep sharing
He is going to get his YT 100,000 sub plaque! At this time he has 101,000 subs! He did it and he is still the best. He is the reason I am now a gardener :) Such a good man.
Why would someone complain about ads. They can skip them. I’m glad to watch to generate funds for the scholarships. 💕 I’m in Florida and I’m starting seeds now.
The knowledge this man has. A lifetime of walking knowledge!
Thank you for repeating this over & over cuz each time does help understand & clearafy DIFFERENT parts of the full task = thank you 🙋
I don't understand the issue with ads....SMH. He spent his valuable time and resources making these videos and he's not trying to sell anything. The least we can all do is support this awesome person.
LEO... YOUR growing tips, tricks, information is exceptional... and especially for homeowners with small yards... our senior club has benefited so much from your valuable information
Thank you for doing the scholarship fund. So if it requires ads then so be it. We need the younger generation to learn this to raise food to learn where our food comes from. Keep on making videos love watching them
I was having some trouble with wicking. Figured it was the soil/compost I used...but needed to make do with it. I remembered a trick my grandma used to do with her house plants. She would take some string and poke it through one of the drain holes then work it into the pot almost to the top. The end of the string would sit in a saucer of water and wick the moisture up into the soil. So. I took some cotton clothesline and worked the end of it into the bottom of my tub then cut the line level with the soil. Sure enough, it started wicking just fine. I've since been able to use better compost, and haven't had wicking problems, but we were able to make the other work while we needed it to.
That was a great save.. I may have to do that in my garden beds.
Can you make a CZcams video and let me know. I need to see this
@@debbiesmith7946 I can try. I've not ever made a CZcams video. If nothing else, maybe I can take pictures and add them here
Granny Hatchet That’s what my grandma taught me too! Eventually the string rots. But by that time the roots have followed the string down to the water so it still works.
Would you consider doing a video on this? Please?
Mr. Leon, You Sir are a fine Christian Man. Thank You for your teachings.
3:31start
10:10 Fertilizer every time you water 1tsp/gal of water
10:22 Fertilizer for greens (high nitrogen) vs. Fertilizer for blooming plants (Phosphorus & potassium K higher than N)
Leon, you could show people how to convert their decorative pots. Just plug the hole in the bottom with silicone or putty. If growing vegetables, make sure it is kitchen grade or food safe. Boom. This is great. You are doing a good deed. This is definitely the purpose God intended for you. ♥️♥️♥️
I always skip ads, but since yours will benefit a scholarship fund, I don’t mind letting them play through now. It’s the least I can do. You taught me so much and am very grateful.
Hello Mr. Leon
Awesome scholarship you
Are offering..👍
Great video. ☺
3 weeks into my wicking pots and they are doing great...my adult kids are amazed...
I just found you tonight and now I'm binge watching your videos. I love them. I always skip ads. But since what you just said I will let all of the ones on your channel run. Bless you.
You are just the absolute sweetest. Thank you so much for sharing your wisdom, and your character. Watching your videos has made my day.
Mine too. Reminds me of my grandfathers.
For those who don’t have compost it’s Best to use strictly bagged “potting MIX” not soil. Or mix your own. Larry Hall on you tube has a recipe it’s mostly peat moss with some additives I think the square foot garden soil recipe might work as well.
Mr. Leon you’re a gem and I just love watching you! I’m in the process of starting to put my tubs together. I can’t wait for my yummy veggies to grow. Thank you so much for giving of your time and knowledge to help feed America! 🇺🇸
My corn now has ears on it. I think we are going to make some corn this year. It will be our first time for corn in our garden. I know we started pretty late because that was when I found your site on the internet, but it works! We are so excited. If we run out of warm weather before the corn makes, well we will start again next year. Thanks Leon for making this possible. Most people in my area have no garden at all because of all the rain we had in the spring.
I missed you, Leon, and look forward to your future videos. Good luck with the scholarship fund.
Thank you for explaining about the plastic protection. We had so much rain this spring, it drown my garden out twice.
Thank you sir for sharing your wisdom and passion. My kids and I came to your farm to buy seeds, plants, fertilizers and soil. Unfortunately we missed seeing you. Praying you're doing much better after your wreck. And we hope to see you next time.
I love that I'm utilizing a Leon accent while I'm drilling. Thanks, Leon!
I’m in SWFL and am very grateful for a way to grow in the ‘only season we supposedly unable to; by being able to move plants around to the north side, (In and out of direct sun), into my garage for a heat break if needed and also to prevent overwatering. Plants started 3 weeks ago are growing at an incredible rate. I start them off in plastic egg cartons, to solo cups, and then the healthiest into 5 gallon buckets. I use 2 pieces of drain pipe (the kind with with small holes all around), cut 2 about 7-8” lay them side by side, insert a piece of PVC pipe, and place an aerating ground cover inside before covering with soil and nutrients, (10-10-10) and epsom salt. Thank you Leon, be blessed my friend.
Thank you for showing this Mr Leon I will admit I am one that has to be shown step by step how to do things so I appreciate your patience in teaching and explaining thank you
Thank you Mr. Leon for your wisdom!
That is awesome your doing the Scholarship to get kids educated for the future. Amen Leon. That is so neat. Using the plastic recycle is a great job. I remember my Aunt would do a wicking with a old rug from a coffee can sitting outside her pot filled with water and the other end in the soil in the pot . At her cabin up north. It was enough to water her flower pots which she wasn’t there . Great video.
I like that your update video now says, don't need to use the cloth barrier. Ever since your first video about this where you used some kind of barrier, and then other videos from others where they didn't use a barrier, people have been wondering, which way is better?
Now that you also say this, it's good to know you have very likely tried both methods and decided that this design without the barrier, is doing good!
Mr. Leon, you are a wealth of information on how to do things right. Thank you for sharing!!
Your an honest man inside and out with right motives and actions. Refreshing
Absolutely wonderful information!!!! Thank you so much for teaching gardening.....you are a wealth of knowledge and experience that money just can’t buy.
Yes to the ads! I make sure to watch them every video. I love what you are doing. Thank you.
Thank you for your patience with the new viewers. I know you have covered a lot of this material before and still have to explain again and again and again . Thank you sir for your love for others.
Another great video!
People will complain about anything! Don’t think twice about it! 🙃
Thank you so much for explaining about the fertilizer I am always so confused as to which plant needs what. I love your channel and really appreciate you sharing all you knowledge.
Leon. Don’t worry about the nay sayers, what your doing is invaluable. I’ve learned so much already and I just found u 5 days ago. Thank you and keep on keeping on... and oh yea, I’m all about smart pots. I swear they so much better. I’d love to see them partner with you on a design. I’d love that. I’d b ur #1 customer. Thank you again
Mr. Leon…please ignore anyone who complains. Your message and videos are priceless!!
I love your videos, Leon! Don't pay any attention to the complainers. You are doing a great work.
Thank you Leon you are so awesome, I don't like ads but in this case what a fantastic reason to have them! Your scholarship program is creating urban and backyard farmers, increasing knowledge about food security is important.
Thanks for all your hard work. It looks like we all will need to be able to grow our own food from now on.
Starting my garden! Fortunately I found you channel
I appreciate this channel. I really would like Leon to connect with some of the engineering channels on CZcams and get a few patents so he can release a complete product on a large scale.
Don’t worry about these complainers. They are only thinking of themselves. You are doing amazing things! You are a National Treasure!
Thanks Leon! The fertilizer explanation helped! Here on the plains of Texas we don’t get enough rain so I don’t think if pots are outside it is necessary for the plastic on top? Course that would stop weeds. Things dry out here so fast. I put wood chips mulch on the top of mine. Course I don’t have the big buckets yet just 5 gallon buckets, but let me say I LOVE this method!!!!
Walmart has 17 gl tubs. If you don't care about colors 3 tub pkg red white and blue and 2 pkg of colors. I have them delivered to the house lol. free with 35$ orders.
Let state as a caregiver I can't leave the house much so Leon telling what to do helps so I can look online
You are a true amazing person! Thanks for educating us on growing our own food.
Thank you for the scholarships! That is an awesome thing to do!
Omg i can't believe I found this!! You are amazing, all the best from Poland!!!
Thank you Leon for the Wonderful fertilizer lesson
Leon, I'm not a kid at 68 but never to old to learn. Thank you.
wow! i just found your channel! i am going to try this wicking tub. thank you for haveing this video!
You've given me hope, Leon. My first attempt at gardening veggies did not go well at all.... and to see a process pretty much self sustaining gives me confidence to try again. Thank you, Leon.
Love your videos I have learned so much I am gardening for the 3rd year thanks to you and every year I grow more garden is growing.
Wow what an awesome man! Sir, God has blessed you abundantly with wisdom and compassion. I came here from watching another CZcamsr who mentioned wicking containers and said he got the idea from you. I subscribed because I believe I can learn a lot from you...and because you are God fearing and so am I.
i wish i had some teach me these things when i was growing up
Thank You so much for these videos. I’m going to make one of these this weekend. I love how you showed how to add the pvc pipe. I can’t wait to grow my own spinach and lettuce. Thank You again 😃
Gardening Leon,
Thank you for sharing these tips. I am new to gardening and want to grow my food. I am just watching this in 2020. These were made 2019 but are very helpful. Thank you so very much. Brenda
Mr. Leon,
Thank you and the team for sharing all of this gardening knowledge. I am trying the "Wicking buckets" for the first and love the simplicity of the idea.

I started watching your videos back in March, so I went and found a lady selling the tubs so I'm doing the tub gardening now and very happy with it, I am getting the fall gardening started now Thank You for showing the world how to do wicking tubs....P.S. it's a lot easier on my old back......lol I live in Dayton,Texas.....
I’m a little bit late to the game but the taproot will go all the way down and find a water source. People that are complaining that their soil is too dry don’t realize that the taproot will find the water. It’s not absolutely necessary to have the entire route Submerged and or at least wet. It’s a way to do hydroponics. I’ve done it several times.
Hello from Scotland
I just found this channel and thank you for what you do. I’m shocked at people who come on this channel and complain about ads, you do so much for the community and for everyone on CZcams. Some people are just plain unhappy to complain about making their life easier and can care less about others. Keep doing you, you are amazing.
Thanks for the great information and for sharing your vast knowledge in gardening. I'm not a gardener but I want to start planting veggies in the spring. I enjoy your videos!
I so love Leon. You're soooooooo knowledgeable! I wished you were near!
Just want to say I appreciate your sharing with us. Love the content. Thank you and stay well.
Yes put the ads on there. Reaching up and reaching out! Keep it up Leon!
Thanks for another informative video Leon. I just picked up on the correct amount of fertilizer when watering. Nothing did burn Leon and I had a good harvest, will be picking the last tomatoes this week as frost is coming maybe this week. Glad I called you Leon. Bill in NH.
I feel like...watching Leon is like a lifestyle scholarship.
I've only watched a couple of videos and they are great. Fertilizer ideas are great, I really need help in that area. Thanks for the information.
This is the video where I finally got it! Thank you!💕
Thank you for helping these students, I don't skip the ad in your channel. Also thanks for replying back to my question by sending the instructions via text msg
My Cannabis grew awesome in the "Leon wicking tubs" this year, only one left to harvest. 42f last night. 😊💚👍
Thank you so much! You're such an incredible person!
Love the channel. Thank you for doing the scholarships for those young student. Thank you for teaching us.
Appreciate what you do for our youngsters, our future.
Great tips Mr Leon !! Just came across your channel love it..
Thanks for the recap. I sure wish up here in not cow country I could find tubs like those. Thank you again.
Absolutely will let your ads run, but there were no ads on this video.
Love your golden heart sir Leon
I am fine with advertisement. you're worth it !!
Thank you for doing this again!
I have No complaints. Thank You for the Video !
Love learning from you!!
Sir, it’s refreshing to see you do more wicking tubs because i learnt something new from your previous video. And BTW, i watch adds so i can help the channel grow.
Came over here on a recommend from Sawyer Ridge Farm channel.
This is a great idea.
PS Love your show and thank you so much..
I don't mind the ads....keep up the great work and helping me ...
Thanks for sharing your knowledge
Rain on the complainers, love your videos, and your heart.
Love the videos, Leon. I'm up in Guthrie and can't find any of those empty mineral tubs. I've been using those blue ones from Lowe's but the rim starts cracking after one year in the sun.
Thanks for all you do in helping others learn, especially for our youth! WORD: If people don't like ads, they can buy a subscription to CZcams, ad free. Like others have said, you get complainers on every channel. They are getting free advice and info and have the audacity to think they can tell you what to do. The world is full of narcissists; ignore them. It will drive them crazy. 😄
The “DISLIKES” are Automatically set upon Every channel on CZcams.
No real people actually watched the video - until the end - and then took the time to “dislike.” Its the CZcams politics. It’s wrong but dislikes are not really indicative of anyone’s real, actual opinion. NO ONE gets a perfect score of no dislikes. Even if it’s true!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us and bless you! From Canada
Don't apologize about the ads. You earned that money. Even if you didn't put it towards a scholarship, it would still be ok.
I punched the like button! 😃😃
New subscriber here, Thanks for this!
Thank you for this explanation. Am growing tobacco so I assume I need super high nitrogen fertilizer
over 12,000 likes and only SEVEN dislikes??? i dont think ive EVER seen that before ! damn amazing job sir ! i love all of your videos and have learned so much. THANK YOU !
I live in canada and I have started my seedlings inside first. I am using rubbermaid bins for my wicking bed.
These are great videos!! Thank you so much for doing them. I have been looking for options for my very small city townhouse "yard" space. This seems like a great option!!
I've read that we shouldn't drink water from water bottles we've left in our car because the plastic will leech into the water. Is leeching a concern with this method of growing? Will the plastic leech into the water then be passed on to the plants? So much confusing info out there😳
