Looking to grow your first vegetable garden? Or maybe you’ve given it a try in the past and didn’t enjoy the success you thought you would? Well, I designed a self-paced online gardening course just for you! 12 core chapters of a video-based program that will take you from complete beginner to garden master without having to sift through hours and hours of CZcams content. Videos that barely contain the relevant information you need to get started focusing on garden tours and channel updates rather than useful insight.
With Vegetable Gardening Basics, we’ve changed all that and synthesized all the information I’ve learned over my 30 plus years of growing food down to all the key pieces of the puzzle to unlock your growing potential. Every basic skill, technique, tip, trick, you name it, its all here. A 150+ page high resolution PDF guidebook is also included to help reinforce and guide you along the way, making the learning and absorbing of the material even easier. Lifetime access is included, including any updates or extra content. The first batch of enrollment is now live, secure your spot today! courses.theripetomatofarms.ca/courses/vegetable-gardening-basics
I am a first year gardener this year...I've been teaching myself gardening, canning, freeze-drying, dehydrating...basically, overall self-reliance this past 5 years. I follow a lot of canning/gardening/homestead channels and I enjoy them all...but for real, when it comes to teaching...you are second to none! Thank you so much for sharing your skills with us. Your approach to teaching, breaking down the how's and why's is just wonderful. I never leave your videos with questions because you thoroughly cover everything. And for those of us without a lot of extra time to spend in front of a screen, you are as straight to the point as possible. Seriously, second to none. ~Kelly
That's so amazing of you to say, thank you! I love that you recognize the "straight to the point" approach because its something I'm really striving for Kelly. I get the entertainment value of a lot of other channels, and more power to them. I just want to pass on what knowledge I've accrued without all that other stuff. I won't get as many views because of it, but if I can create a library full of everything I've learned and will learn, that means a lot more in my opinion. Cheers! 🙂
Good for you, teaching yourself these skills! I have done the same thing for quite awhile now. Another awesome gardening channel in Roots and Refuge - Jess is amazing, encouraging, and her smile is infectious. 😀
Freeze Drying u say ... hope its with a real freeze dryer not some wack backyard whodo
This video was SO well made. One of the most informative videos on growing strawberries out there.
Hey thanks, appreciate that!
I second that!!’
Being super green in strawberry growing (just bought 2 varieties) I have learned the most out of this video and NEED more :D
Being an experienced grower hydroponically, i have cleaned rinced and sterilized my two pheno here! Hehe
I have two controlled environments currently set for vegetative growth and flowering.
I understand that im at different stage and may have multiple issues from this video.
Do you have any deeper dives videos about day-nutral and ever-bearing?
given my two grow environment I would like to be able to juste eat strawberries all the time when spending time in the gardens 😍
Can you give me any pointers?
Great job on the editing and scripts.
Thank you
I totally agree! We have not had rain here in Florida, since December 2022, and 3 days ago, the skies opened up and we got 2.5 inches in 1 hour. Believe it or not, that much rain on sand, is not good. Dry sand is quite oily? Weird right? I think about 5-7 of my Strawbabies drowned. Maybe not, but they sure look dead to me. Anything I can do?
Thank you! I think I was underwatering/feeding and burying the crowns.. no wonder. better luck this year :)
You are better than my biology teacher😂😂😂
Seriously i really like your videos keep it up
Thanks!!
Another good way to propagate strawberry get a kiddie pool around 36 -48"inch make some 1/4" drain holes then locate a sunny spot fill with soil and make a mound in the middle plant 3-4 plants and watch tons of runners and will root on their own you can separate and plant as needed ✌️😁
Just helping not trying to be anything else! This is a good informative video!👍
Love the kiddy pools.
Yeah Ive heard those kiddie pools make great above ground garden beds.
Im actually going to attempt to grow strawberries in my closet in my big octopot self watering system under a strong full specrum grow light. I cant find anyone who has attempted strawberries this way even those who suggest not to grow inside haven’t even attempted it, so I’m gonna go for it being that it gets so much hotter each year then the last that all my outdoor plants tend to burn up before they can really do anything , and also because at this house and the house I lived in before I had started off the growing season, growing my own veggies, tomatoes , melons and such, only for them to get destroyed after all my work by insects like aphids or other crop my homework, killing insects. I figured the best way to avoid those pesty insects ruining all my hard work anymore is by growing my plants inside where they’re safe!
No matter what you do. The bluejays will find them. 😊
@@robyntaurusbeatz703update?
You can always give away or sell runners to friends & neighbors. They make a great gift. Children love picking strawberries.
Most definitely!! Saves your friends and family money too!
I’ve recently discovered this channel and just love it! Jeff, you are a gem, thank you for sharing your knowledge. I’ve already started using your catchphrases when I’m out in the garden lol!!
Jeff, watching your video is better than reading a hardback book for planting. And much quicker! I’m taking this book back to the library
Thanks so much buddy! I try to pack it all in...although as soon as I hit the "finish" button, there's always new stuff I wish I had put in, LOL!
this made a hard day a little better, thank you.
Cheers Sean, thanks for watching man, hope things get better!
🙏 that you stay strong and keep "chin up".
You provide the best information. I purchased 80 bare root starters. A combination of ever bearing and June bearing. After watching a previous video on strawberries you provided…I took the plunge. Guess what I’ve had fresh strawberries every day this week. I’m so excited. Now if I could be successful with my tomato starts… not giving up. Thank you so much.
OMG Penny....80 starts?? EPIC! You'll be swimming in berries soon enough! :-)
Where did you get the plants? I had a really hard time finding any in Iowa
Best strawberry video ever. Thanks!
Thanks so much for the kind words!
Thank you.My grandfather was a strawberry farmer I think I will start now too.
That's what I like to hear sharon! 🙂
This has to be the most informative video on strawberries I’ve watched.
Thanks so much for this! I started gardening this year for the very first time and my coworker was kind enough to give me a strawberry plant, but it wilted before I got home because of the heat and I hadn't been able to figure out how to fix it. Found this video and immediately made my own potting soil, separated the crowns, pruned the runners, and literally the next morning it perked back up. You're a lifesaver!
Phenomenal video! Thank you for being succinct yet thorough.

ive just planted a whole rasied bed of strawberries 🍓 i love them so much i wan t have have loads and loads!
That was really a well produced and informative video.
Cheers!
Your beloved strawberry plant looked so gorgeous! I hope I will grow mine like yours soon learning from you! ThankYou!
I Started growing my own container strawberries ever since I watched your video a couple years ago🍓🍓. Thank you for your videos as always.
Awesome!! How are they going for you?
@@TheRipeTomatoFarms great. I even lay straws on top of the soil so the strawberries are not laying on the dirt. Brilliant idea👌
@@houseplants1684 Straw really does make a difference! :-)
Loved the detailed video and just when I was going to back and review - I LOVED the summary - Perfect!
Awesome video with great instructions!! Thank you!
Cheers, thanks for watching!
Thanks so much for this information, looking forward to my first crop this summer
Very clear and comprehensive video. Thank you.
Thanks Keith, kind of you to say! :-)
Another tip is to cover strawberries in the winter with pine needles. It protects them in cold temperatures and keeps the ph where it should be.
Cheers, I have heaps of them.
And pine needles deter ants in your planters.
Thank you so much for all the details you put into this video. So helpful!
Hey Amber, thanks for the kind words and for watching! :-)
Strawberries remind me of late winter since I live in fl, they are best in febuary
Yeah, they definitely struggle with that southern heat!
my brother I like the quickie videos, but these are my favorite!...thank you
Cheers John, thanks for the support as always man! :-)
I absolutely love the info in this! So wonderful!
Thanks for sharing all the tips and preparing for strawberry 🍓 I have learned alot let us keep planting my friend 😊
I ABSOLUTELY love this video. So informative. Thank you so much!🪴🍓
Nice
czcams.com/video/NWP0wSB5dS4/video.html
Excellent and thorough video, thank you!
the camera angle makes you look like a cute happy plant yourself everytime!
I AM a happy plant! Lol.
VERY well put together topic. Thank you for the detailed information on how to grow 🍓 and the different types of 🍓.
Wow! Loved this. I have been watching strawberry videos for weeks and still learned so much from this video! Thankyou for the education Now I have to watch it again and take notes this time.
Thanks so much KA, appreciate the kind words!
Awesome presentation Thank you 😊
Excellent presentation! I'm going to grow some strawberries now🍓🍓🍓
Best video I've seen on strawberries and planting..thanks .I'm from Spanish ontario ..near Sudbury..
I grow alpine and musk strawberries from seed quite often. They are an exception to your hybrid rule. They also can bear fruit the first year of you start them mid January the plants will be healthy enough by spring to produce before. My hawaii white strawberries were actually producing fruit in the pots I started them in. I will however note, unless you just want to claim you grow strange strawberries, just buy your plants. It's far less painful.
Right on Ronald! 🙂
Wow, where do you get you seeds for alpine & Musk varieties? Thanks, definitely something to try
@@kathleenmccarthy4510 The Strawberry Store sells oddity seeds. Rain tree Nursery sells established plants.
Thanks
I buy organic strawberries from the market. Any strawberries that become soft before eating, I throw in a pot. That is how I started my strawberry crop and have shared with others. I do not know what variety they are but have been successful with this method for years.
I love all of your "Definitive Guide " Videos Plus the ones for beginners "Which I am" Thank U they've really helped me.
Thanks Margo! Appreciate the support!
This was a great detailed informative video. Thanks!
I love the abundant information you’re giving out great teaching. 🙏
Thanks, appreciate the kind words!
This was amazing…I just planted last week. This was right on time. Thank you
Perfect timing!! 🙂
Very solid walkthrough.I'm going for Strawberries for the first time. Thanks for all you do!
I hope you got lots!
Great. thank you again for your detailed video .
Thank you Jeff. I’ve had no luck with strawberries in Queensland Australia, but I’m gonna follow your guidelines Thank you for your video.
Excellent job. Thank you for the info.
Best video on strawberries!
Perfect information and your hands on experience makes a difference thx for taking the time to share .

Thank you!
Thanks so much! :-)
Thank you! That could be the best educational garden video I have ever seen. You nailed it all, and with such a nice demeaner or style. A+ !!!!! The videography was excellent also. I love the close ups for my old eyes. I bought bare root strawberries the othe day and will plant them soon, so now I know what to do. I have never even been able to get fruit from strawberry plants, but then I didn't feed them either. Thanks again!
Thanks Catherine, that means a lot to hear. Appreciate it!
Excellent video. Enjoy the humble way you explain your methods with a mellow demeanor. Some inform with a ego attached; The Tube got to their heads... Appreciate you sharing your expertise.

Thanks so much for all the great information. I’ve been gardening for many years but never strawberries. My wife has been asking me for a couple years for strawberries, so I built a couple 4X8 raised beds. Wish us luck. That’s again.
Right on John! 4x8 beds are HUGE! I expect to hear about all the epic bounties this year! 🙂

I grew some from seed to get the double pink bloosom kind. I started them in December in my cool winter greenhouse and they actually fruited that summer. So if you have a cool winter greenhouse this can be a great way to grow strawberries.

Hi New Viewer here Such a Wonderful Vid. One of the best i have seen.
Thanks, appreciate that! :-)
Nice video. Beautiful looking strawbs. I'm strictly a container grower for everything due to a small backyard and woods behind the house. Too many animals that would (and some do) raid my bounty. Deer, raccoons, #!@$ groundhog, chipmunks, squirrels, possum, turkeys, fox, coyotes and fishers. I pack my planters with strawberry plants. I use everbearing plants, use composted manure every spring and lots of fert during the growing season. If the plants slow down they get replaced and a chance at a 2nd life in an open spot not too far into the woods.
Very smart Morrocco, that's exactly what I would do! Best of bounty this year! 🙂
How do you protect the plants from all of the animals?
@@babs3483 I have a wooden staircase in the back that goes to a door on the 2nd level. It has a platform at the top and shelves along the stairs. My biggest headache are chipmunks and an occasional possum that can climb up the frame of the stairs (stairs are blocked). All the containers sit on the shelves or on the platform.
Very educational! Thank you!
Feed Me Seymour! Little shop of Horrors was a very cool movie!👍
