Jobes Organics – Plant Challenge Follow Up

Earlier this spring, participants of P. Allen Smith’s Garden2Blog event were asked to participate in containter gardening throwdown challenge. The rules were simple, plant out a container using Jobes products (potting soil & organic fertilizer) with $10 worth of plant material. Then, make a short video about your experience. Here’s the original video

 

 

It’s been weeks now since I made that first video planting out a container using Jobes Organics fertilizer. If you’ll take a peek at the videos, you’ll see that I expanded my experiment to using Jobes on our container gardening beds and some of our rose beds. I have now made a follow up video showing the results of some of the gardening beds growth as well as that awesome container that we planted which has just exploded with growth. Check out this video.

Needless to say, I am sold. Thanks Jobes for this opportunity.

I have a new respect for those who stand in front of the camera on a regular basis. Below is a very short Outtake video. Everytime we started, I just laughed….

Dick Grandy & I at Moss Mountain Farm

I had the great pleasure to meet the CEO of Easy Gardener, Mr. Dick Grandy during my visit to Moss Mountain Farm. He and I spent some time together walking the gardens and chatting about his company and the products they produce. In an age of “corporate spin”, it was refreshing to find that Dick Grandy is the real deal. He’s a gentlemen who is committed to finding and producing products that make gardening a joy to all. Find out more by visiting the Easy Gardener website.

  1. Oh Chris, that would totally be me: laughing uncontrollably and unable to go on with the show. I loved that. And wow, the Jobes product seems to work beautifully. I’ll give it a try as soon as I run out of the Plant Tone I’m using right now. Thanks for the tip.
