Hey, Kevin. I greatly appreciated your video- definitely helpful for me since I may be considered older & mobility challenged(not quite elderly. Also, was going thru my Garden's Supply Company catalog again- I keep them all for reference- it happened to be the one that featured the makeover of your backyard. Had to smile to myself because after all the times I've gone through this catalog I just noticed the bowl with the dragon fruit and the cuttings in front of you! ! I've watched your videos about the dragon fruit & it just clicked as I saw it this time in the catalog. Thx for the info. Be well.

Very timely message for me! I bought a circular saw, casters, and screws recently; and already had the drill and wood from a company that puts left over wood outside for free for people to take with the goal of making a plant caddy. Learned some things from you regarding making it, so, much thanks to you! Dont have the saw horses with me right now, but will figure out a way to get it done!

I love the plant caddy Kevin! I know you're not too concerned about the details when it comes with the woodworking, but I would highly recommend using some sort of clamp for this kind of thing. They really help keep everything straight when using a drill to create pilot holes or screw things together!

I really like this video. I have wanted to get a Meyer lemon tree but couldnt figure out if I wanted to keep it in a container or put it in ground. This is great to move the little tree around. What mixture did you use for your soil? Are you going to leave it in the bag or eventually plant it in the ground?

Great tutorial I need a few for an avocado and lemon tree and was putting way too much thought into it obviously. I have all the needed equipment and will be whipping up at least one roll soon. Thanks for all your great content. I appreciate all your time and hard work you put into it.

Could also stain/varnish them if you wanna be boujee lol. Prob help with durability but I love me some stained wood lmao. Could even make a brace sorta roller for top heavy stuff maybe? Always feel bad when all the plants at the nurserys blow over and I wish they'd put a brace for em lol.

I generally move all containers to 1 place. Its a pretty large place between 3 sheds and garages. It stays warm enough to just let it prevent strong frost. It only gets colder when it snows.
But it stays warm enough to let plants like strawberries keep producing leaves a lot

I've been looking for some projects for my 14 year old son, this is perfect. I only need about a bazillion caddies for my inside-outside citrus grove. Before anyone makes a nasty comment, don't worry, my husband, a real construction guy, will oversee it.

How can I get rid of white flies? I've tried insecticide soap and garlic water but its not helpful. Its on my chili plants. Leaves are turning yellow. I don't want them take over all my other plants. What should I do?

If you have a Harbor Freight near by, you can buy a hardwood furniture dolley for $12-$16 and just add a couple of slats to it. You just won't have the locking casters, but I don't think you really need them anyway.

I think I would go with a more rugged pneumatic tire instead of those smooth shopping trolley style ones so it would move a bit better over rougher surfaces like dirt or anything that isn't just smooth concrete.

Yesss Kevin, I even added rope so I can pull it and the and not the grow bag because I was afraid that I would pull the plant off of the caddy. I clamp the rope to the grow bag handles. Great job on your caddy.

Hey! Whats the name of that program you use to plan your garden spaces with the square foot method? It looked almost like an excel sheet but you could drag and drop plants to their respective squares.
