I did that With mango seed 30 years ago. I was experimenting and now there's a massive mango tree in my back garden. It's beautiful.
that's wonderful!
problem is it takes years from germination to actually have fruit on some of these seeds, 5-8 yrs for mangoes, 3+ yrs for kiwi fruit, so if you think I'll just pop a seed in the ground and be munching on fresh fruit in a years time you will be disappointed, but if you are in it for the long haul you will reap the rewards
Wow nice
Are you serious?!? Lmk 😩😂
Wow, that's so cool. What country do you live in please?
Just seeing how life is formed from a few methods household items and seeds is truly breathtaking.

You are saving the environment by planting plants and trees. Keep doing it
Not so much in fact, it's a good thing to plant trees, but not everywhere and without thinking twice before like we are doing with our "compensate carbon by planting trees" 😅🙂
If I ever get back into gardening, I'll definitely use these. Gardening hacks are awesome.
You may want to get started with that garden now, food supply are going to be in short supply very soon
Mmmhh being a gardener myself I can tell you that a lot of these hacks don't work in the northern hemisphere. But also, many (not all) supermarket fruit and veg seeds don't sprout. Tried the Pepper, won't work. It works with potatoes and butternut squash (my compost has a story to tell) but I am a bit doubtful about smaller types of seeds.
Much of the fruit and vegetables you buy in a grocery store is hybrid and so while it might sprout, whatever you get from it is probably going to look and taste different from what you brought.
The bell pepper won’t work the way they’ve shown but if u cut out the core where the seeds are and toss in the compost heaps, they’ll sprout heaps ò plants. I currently have a few grown in pots which are fruit at they moments, all from compost heaps sprouted!
@@trangle8 yes but the issue isn't will it sprout, the issue is will it produce anything recognizable/edible.
Have a heated garage? Have an old lamp? Swap out the bulbs for Grow light bulbs. I have germinated many seeds from my garden that I never thought would do anything. My biggest success was from the pod of a lady slipper orchid. You are not allowed to pick or transplant wild flowers in Michigan, I thank the bird for leaving the dropping in my garden.
I did that with pepper from market and it works! And im from cold russia)
Damn. Growing vegetables takes a long time. Thank you farmers for feeding me. THANK YOUUUUU
Your very welcome
It only took about a month for my moms tomatoes
@@hellobye2871 when I grow a tomato plants it took almost a month but the flowers grew but no tomato grew 😭😭
@@ashana8898. You need two different types of tomatoes and hand pollinated both plants. My dad always grew at least 4-6 varieties.

Lovely ideas for gardening lovers, will def. try if I can 😊👍🥦❤️
Having a small garden shouldn't stop you from being a great gardener! In fact, with a little creativity, you can turn your small space into a veritable oasis. Thanks for the Tips.
I wish gardening was this easy, it actually takes a lot of work & love. Sprouting is this easy though.

i love gardening it gives me so much inner peace ,but never been successful ,specially with my aloe plant ahhh.
@@filywedibereka1961 if it is a pup it takes about 3 to 4 weeks to start having roots so be patient I have two little pups myself
🤦♂️this is NOT how you are supposed to garden. It seems like a lot of work, but there are real gardening tricks that make it easy, but this is too much effort for not even gardening good.
Same
I tried the first one, and can I just appreciate how satisfying it was just to open the mango? It was nice!...
But then someone thought it was trash and threw it away 🤣
Ouch
I know when you get the seed it's so satisfying
I feel sorry for you for all the effort you made. 🙈
Rest in peace manjo seed

Thank you
I just love watching nature do it’s thing. Thank you so much for Making a simple video people can learn quickly for them to grow your own food and stay healthy
I like to grow everything. I regrow many things over and over. Free food! Nothing better than that. Wonderful video
“Add a spritz of water to your open walnut, wait ten days for sprout, plant seed, wait 30-40 years, then when you retire-provided you still live where you planted your walnut, enjoy your easily self-produced walnuts with your grandkids!”
Have a good day.

im new to gardening and thought i discovered the holy grail of planting veggies when watching this video...and then i read your comment....Im now in tears.....LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL....spritz of water
@Paola E 3
Hi hi! So my mom grows food (herbs, veggies and techically-fruits the most) and I sent her this video and she LAUGHED while saying that most of the growing/fertilizer hacks in this video are complete bs. So just be weary... try to grow stuff the normal way unless the lifehacks aren’t from these “lifehack” channels. Growing food is actually really fun. I once grew a zucchini bigger than ones you find at the store
My three random gardening tips: Peas are best started in your garden (transplanting peas leads to them dying 99% of the time), garlic does best in sandy soil when you first plant them (just mix sand with soil), and you should only water aloe when the soil is completely dry (sometimes the pot will say that you never need to water it, there are different types of aloe).
Cool advise😄😄
What du yu min bs?
@@horiz7238 dude he or she was just trying to give helpful advice, don't hate, you shouldn't trust these channels some of the stuff they do are fake.
@@marinakhaw9647 yeah i know but what do he or she mean bs? Me no hate
Oh ok.
Thank you dearly, Blossom! 😛 THE ultimate self vegetables growing video.
Love this video from Blossom! So many clever hacks to make gardening easier and more productive. Can't wait to try them soon - genius! Thanks for the inspiration!
I've grown peach, apple, oaks, hickories, pecans, pawpaw's, bald cypress, sycamore, several maple species, river birch, willow and cottonwood from seeds. It's addictive! I have given away nearly all of them to friends and they have been used to plant acres of land.
I have been saving Seeds of tomatoes on a paper towel to dry and drying out bell peppers seeds and citrus seeds all winter long . The other day I take and recycle my old paper and mail into packets and label the seeds with a date . This video has me wanting to grow a garden, now if I only had a place where I could. Maybe this year .?
R.T. of fl.
Really appreciate if y'all continue to look after the plants🙂👍
This is a life changing and a transformational video....thanks to the maker of this ingenious masterpiece 👏
Wow!!!!! incrível o trabalho de vocês!!!!Deus abençoe sempre 🙏🙌
In 30 years you should have your very own peach tree!!🥴
Yaa🥴 in 30 years!
Too fast, I think 🥴
Realistically more like 6
Regardless get started now.
I started my food Forest 2 years ago about 10% of what I started died 90% has made it to its second year this is a great experience.
🥴
wait is that rlly how long it takes i-🥴
If you're not into growing full pumpkins, you can still plant the seeds and eat the early sprouted leaves as though it's spinach. Just make sure you get to it before it starts getting little hair-like pokeys on the stem and leaves. Texture and taste plummets at that point.
For the avocado, you should remove the brown skin from the seed. Also, in order to get better roots, cut the leaves to 6 inches once it grows around 10 inches. That way, the energy goes into making robust roots INSTEAD of a bunch of leaves.
@@FKC903 I nipped my avo tree at about 6-8”, and it put out a whole other sprout lol! I have two growing from the same seed, so now I’ve twisted them around each other for support as they grow.
No
Oh cool!I have no garden area to plant anything as I only plant in pots.thanks for the help!
no pIant
These are outstanding ideas!! I always wondered how much we could grow from our produce at hone but organic is probably the best way to grow from since it hasn’t been irradiated nor used root inhibitor on them.
Great ideas!👍🏼
Exactly, seeds from GMO plants will not sprout, by design! That's why IF I buy seeds or plants from somewhere like Home Depot, Lowe's, Walmart, etc, I make sure they are Heirloom only!! Some marked as hybrids will sprout & some won't. A seed coming from grocery store GMO produce may sprout but usually dies mysteriously w/in a week or so. That's how they hook farmers, they get massive yields from GMO seed but can't store seed to use to plant next year's crop. Then there's all the fertilizer, herbicides, pesticides, etc that GMO seeds must have (some only need one of these, others 2, some all 3). I've been storing seeds for decades now. I may live in the South but it's TN, on the wrong side of the mtn & have a shorter growing season than I had in GA so starting from fresh only works early on. I used flashing to reflect sunlight back to my garden for plants that require more sun such as peppers & don't for plants that prefer more shade. This way I can leave my massive old growth trees alone. There's 32 varieties of trees in TN, areas that haven't ever been clear cut or mined, such as my mtn, have all 32 including maples (make my own syrup), walnuts, hickory, just to name a few. If I do have to cut a Locust tree down it becomes fence posts bc they take roughly 40-50yrs to rot, untreated. So for those reasons & plenty more, I keep my trees. It's too easy to create or locate existing microclimates in a yard or garden or woodland. Ya just gotta do like Blossom does & get creative!!
I've always hated how manufacturing companies like Monsanto et al ruin natural growth of plants of any kind.
Edible Apples, Cherry's, avocados, melons CANNOT be grown from the fruits you eat! This is a lie in this video! You must grow a tree of each variety and when young you ADD CUTTINGS FROM ANOTHER edible fruit tree! Apple trees from a fruit you bought in the store will only produce "crab apples" (sour apples!) as one example! ( I grew up on a 5 square mile "family" farm).
Well it will work with potatoes and a few other things carrots possibly but with seeds from your veg, I wouldn't count on it. These big companies had made sure everything is sterile so you cannot reproduce! You have to buy the seeds. I've got several big beautiful lemon trees. Not a lemon inside. When I was a child I planted an orange tree that produced oranges. They were the good old days LOL nevertheless there's nothing like watching something grow. I use my lemon tree branches in bouquets. The leaves smell like fresh lemons. They were awfully hard to propagate so I am keeping them and enjoying them as houseplants
Love the pitahaya dragonfruit one. Once I Saw a picture online of a mature tree with fruits on it and was like, I'd love me one of those.
Instructions unclear. My home has become a complex chia pet and I'm stuck to the ceiling. Send help. The house would also appreciate some water.
you remember chia pets?
What that means
oof
oof hope u get better
Good
Just a note, most of these work. However, some of the clips of the fully grown fruits are fake, unless this actually took them a few decades to make
Yes it takes few decades to make fruits
Right. Fruits take years from plant to fruit. Made to look easy but growing fruits/veggies is hard work.
The problem with the seed harvesting is so many of the seeds in our store bought food are no longer viable 🥺
Brenda Stuart That’s why if you buy an heirloom tomato which is organic you get to eat it and you harvest the seeds and you get a preview of what tomatoes will taste like that grow from those seats
Chances are you're not going to get a mango seed to sprout because it's been imported. All imported agricultural products are rendered sterile with radiation so they won't sprout and introduce an invasive species into the United States.
I have a 2 year old almost 2 foot tall avocado tree that I grew from seed. Last year my son planted some orange seeds, and even though I was doubtful, we now have a one year old orange tree.
We live in Ontario Canada, so I don’t know that we’ll be able to grow them outdoors. Maybe in if we were zoned more closely to Niagara….still fun to watch them grow!
Excellent creative ways to cover it all environmentally - recycle, planting and gardening. Nice! 👍

I really love 💕 planting fruits, vegetables and mainly flowers 🌼. Thanks for saying

Very inspiring. The more you share the more success.
This is crazy! I always to wanted to build my own garden and this video just made it so easy to do!
Muito interessante,vou fazer alguns🙏🙏
Man, I could've used that fruit picker hack about 30 years ago.
When I was a kid we had plum, orange and an apple tree in our yard, but all the good juicy ones were out of reach in the top center, so I would climb them. I fell more than a few times, but it was worth it on a summer day.

YOU ARE AWESOME! A true hero! Thank you for sharing!
So clever! And entertaining. I am going to try them this spring. Thanks.
Has anyone actually tried this yet or do we just watch this because it’s interesting?
i watch it because it's interesting if i would want to plant then i would look at video's for specific plant,i learnt how to plant a lemon from some russian guy
You cannot hack the world, gardening is a delicate process and should be done properly.
Ikr but there is ppl who think that every thing must be done differently. I mean that some of the hacks are good but ones like putting seeds in a sponge how would you get it out when the roots are growing into the sponge. Why not just do it the traditional way instead of doing some crazy that doesn’t make sense
As an actual gardener, I'm honestly going to disagree. I hear you, dial it back with the hack stuff, but I'm a busy guy. This stuff is super useful, especially if you don't have a lot of time for gardening and want to get into it.
@@strokernut some of the hacks are in fact useful but lots of them have more cons then pros but there is some good hacks but most are not the best way to do it
I grow everything from flowers, to plants, to mushrooms in monotubs... you can do things an easier way... or CHEAPER... it is not “hacking” anything...
@@TheTypingTeen I was a teacher for 30 years and many of my students came from exceptionally poor families living in tiny 800 sqr ft apartments. Not only was I able to afford all the things we needed to grow plants I was blessed by the looks of joy when we grew string beans from soda bottles and twine. I wish Stephenson that you could have seen their faces! And when the beans grew and they each got to eat one - amazing. We grew beans, tomatoes, celery (incredible to grow), green onions, flowers and a head of lettuce. Do you know how many students did not know lettuce grows in heads? The next year we added broccoli and carrots.
Yes. It is all worth it. 🌱
Amazing tricks, dont have any word for such tricks, I can't stop myself from seeing whole video
When she scratched the soap 😬... I couldn't 🤯
I've tried the soap under the finger nails- didn't work, fell right off as I started gardening. It was woth a try.
I know it freaks me out it would drive me crazy to have that under my nails

Nice to have tips for small gardens. This is the one of positive things I've found since C-19 hit us!!!
So clever for planting. Thanks for this video
Wow, I'm so glad to come across these hacks. It will help my plant 🍀 journey. Thanks for sharing
On the tomato you should instead remove the seeds and rinse them and get off the flesh then have them dry out for a day or two then you can put them into soil. If you do just throw the seed in there it will most likely rot
You’re right that there can be rot/mold. However, I have stuck whole cherry tomatoes into dirt and they sprouted 😆 so that worked out for me
The trick is to plant them under full sun. This pulls the moisture out and prevents rot permeating into the seeds themselves but turns the tomatoes fleshy bits into nutrients the sprouts desperately need to protect from that suns heat.
It’s a sort of symbiosis
My mother used to just put a whole Tomatoe in the soil the next year oh my goodness thé Tomatoes but I did read somewhere To take of the flesh
I cut a tomato in slices, put it on a piece of paper in my car in the sun. They dry very quickly, less than a day and then i plant them. Works very well.
YOU are right and this video is full of BS. I've grown Tomatoes from Cherry, Grape, Romano to Beefeaters from seeds from each of those tomato species for the last 50 years, and my parents and grandparents and my great-grandparents before just as you also described. Wash them, let them dry in the air or even in the refrig, and you can store them for years, then plant when you need. Out of 50 seeds I get 90% seedling just by planting them in a mix of compost and garden soil with powdered eggshells. You can do the same with nearly any fruit, vegetable, melon, and squash species. Edible Apples, Cherry's, avocados, melons CANNOT be grown from the fruits you eat! This is a lie in this video! You must grow a tree of each variety, and when young you ADD CUTTINGS FROM ANOTHER edible fruit tree! Apple trees from a fruit you bought in the store will only produce "crab apples" (sour apples!) as one example! (I grew up on a 5 square mile "family" farm in Illinois).
I loved the cilantro in the plastic basket hack 😍

Do they produce fruit ?
