Dollar Tree Garden Seeds | Budget Garden

My local library has a seed library...you take what you need for free and when what you've grown goes to seed, you give some back to the library. Wonderful program.

Best way to start is dive right in. Remember never place fertilizer directly in plants. Egg shells are great. Black banana are wonderful for Rose's, just smash it against the base. Corn needs multiple rows to fertilize and grow. Dawn with a splash of mouthwash for a safe pesticide. Pots are great because u can follow the sun. A kids hard plastic pool some holes and few rocks make a great mobile garden for tomatoes and potatoes. Never plant cucumbers by melons as they cross pollinate. Cantaloupe will be like a watermelon inside and cucumber will be orange like cantaloupe haha delicious but hilarious.

All the seed packets I bought from Dollar Tree are growing!

Lisa Dawn I have a story that you are gonna love. I have started some tomato plants in my greenhouse and one day I decided to put them outside. A few hours later I went out and a deer had come along and eaten them. A few weeks later I went to my local thrift store and sometimes they have free produce. Well that day he had tomatoes and asked me if I wanted a box of tomato so I got a 28 pound box of tomatoes free!

It's amazing what you can grow with one old seed. There's a life lesson in there somewhere. 😊

Watching you grow the food is as much fun as it will be watching you prepare meals with it.

Your garden looked wonderful. Good job Lisa. Can't wait for the next video.

I love your "from seed to harvest" video! You were even open with your mistakes and as a beginner gardener, I appreciate that, because goodness knows I'll be making mistakes myself!

What a GREAT start as a new gardener!!! :)!!!! Please learn to save seeds from the things you grow. Start a seed bank. So proud for you. By the way, you can never have too many tomato plants. Can all the excess. Thank you so much for sharing your experience with the garden this year.

In my Sunday school class, we start planting seeds early so that They are ready to give to the mothers for Mother’s Day! And the children love putting the seeds in the pot and watching them grow. And I can’t remember for sure if I bought some of them at dollar tree but I know several I got from Dollar General, and they are the same brand 4/$1

I run a small nursery, so I understand the joy that each new leaf brings:) Growing/gardening can bring such happiness and wonder that cannot be replicated. Keep it up! I would love to send you a plant to bring your garden indoors. I mainly focus on aroids, like philodendrons and anthuriums, although I do grow edibles year round for personal use.

WOW somebody has a green thumb 💜 Great job and information!!

Love your vlogs and the simple concise way you present everything. Love your down to earth personality as well. I see your channel continuing to grow!! 🙂 PS - I've heard if you rinse your bagged rice that the rice water is very good for plants!

Thank you for the time it took to film & edit this video over the past 7 months!!!👍 Your garden did far better than mine this year. I'm in Jacksonville, FL and I learned through error that planting tomatoes in spring won't work for me. It gets HOT fast & maters drop blossoms over 90 degrees. I have to plant most veggies in the fall to get a harvest. But, there is less pest pressure in the fall.💚

You could use the seeds that are in the tomato to grow next year. Just save some of the seeds.

Thank you for posting this! I often see seeds at the Dollar Tree but never knew if they would grow or not. You have a green thumb!

Lisa, I'm an agricultural scientist and I personally think you did great with your garden. I loved watching this video and appreciate the time and effort you put into your growing. You'll get better and learn more every year, but honestly, you seem like a natural! 🙂

Thanks Lisa Dawn for sharing your gardening adventure! The harvest is beautiful. It takes time and just getting in there and doing it. From one novice gardener to another. Happy day to you! :)

Lisa--this is my favorite video of yours so far! Congrats to you--I'd say your garden was a smashing success!!

Lisa, I think you did very well, in spite of a few mistakes that you learned from....I love the way you repurpose everything.....and using sticks in such a creative manner......and the old Easter basket with the handle cut off for gathering your harvest....you are a very resourceful girl and I know your Mom and your boyfriend appreciate your efforts and the delicious veggies......
