GROW YOUR OWN GARDEN STAKES + TRELLIS POLES // upcycle, repurpose sunchoke stalks : permaculture
While there is nothing wrong with using bamboo for trellises and stakes in the garden, I’m a big believer in using what you have. Today I am harvesting the stalks from my sunchoke plants to use as a support for next year‘s crops. Sunchokes reach somewhere between 10 to 12 feet tall, so I will be cutting off the top half of the stalk where the blossom, foliage, and skinnier/weaker stem portion reside. I am cutting the base of the stalk at the soil line above the tuber. Discarded plant material like the tops or stalks that are deemed too slender/weak to use can be composted.
To store my sunchoke stalks, I will be keeping them inside of my barn throughout the winter. Though as an experiment I...

Creating a Sustainable Garden w/ Rotting Logs + Woodchips on the Permaculture Homestead
Просмотров 1,4 тыс.Месяц назад
In nature we see rotting logs on every forest floor. These fallen trees provide shelter and food to insects, small critters, and mushrooms. They contribute to the greater mycorrhizal network, add nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium to soil, and provide a place to grow a mushroom crop. Rotting logs and large wood chunks can be a great addition to growing spaces and fruit tree guilds. There needs ...

    Landscaping fabric is terrible stuff. For all the reasons you give, and also, it breaks down after a while and the pieces become either permanently rooted into the ground, or, start flying off and creating a real rag tag looking section/yard. I will never touch it again!!!

    Another plant that works well for this purpose is giant miscanthus. They are sterile and only spread slowly, but grow 12 feet tall every year while producing a very sturdy cane.

    Believe I will stick with harvesting my bamboo. After all I have almost an acre of that! Wish it was gone! Can't cut enough to get rid of it. There are Asian people who come harvest young shoots every spring. They refuse to cut all the new ones. They say they must leave some to help next year's crop. They want it to keep coming back. 🤷

    To anyone from Europe wondering: These are Topinambur (name may be slightly different in your european language) or jerusalem artichoke. 😄 It seems "sunchoke" is a term mainly used in North America, epsecially the USA and Canada and it was a marketing term from the 20th century used to make it more appealing to customers and to make clear it's not related to globe artichokes.

    @jenniferclarke3622 20 дней назад

    Just give it another season or two. Landscape fabric doesn't work long term but I guarantee you will be grovelling around on your knees weeding regardless. Weeds will always find a way. I used a thick layer of cardboard and topped it with a good layer of shredded bark mulch. I still get weeds but they come out easily with a screwdriver.

    Great Information. Reallly appreciate your naturalist approach and emphasis on soil health. Personally have moved countless loads of wood mulch for use around fruit trees, garden paths or to fill low spots. Like to have a pile tucked away for use at the ready. Good stuff.

    I'm gradually starting to grow food for my livestock. I've got an area where I might get 2 or 3 regular fruit trees, but can get multiple Cordon style trees 2 to 3 feet apart. Would you still put a guild right around the trees or spread them out throughout the trees? I will be planting dwarf trees near the back and doing exactly what your doing, but with plants native to tge Kootenays in S.E. British Columbia

    @bcworth444 Месяц назад

    I've seen these and wondered. Maybe you could expound on an upcoming video. The results don't look like compost - does it use heat? What kind of scraps can you use? Will the resulting compost attract animals if you sprinkle it on plants? etc If you like them, I'm intrigued!

    • @AxeAndRootHomestead
      @AxeAndRootHomestead Месяц назад

      Hi! These are good questions! I’ve been using mine for almost a month. It does require a small learning curve to get compost texture results. For example, all food scraps in the karfo yields a moist paste-like result. Just like composting outdoors, we want a balance of carbon and nitrogen ingredients. So when I add in newspaper or leaves, I get a more earthy, compost-like result. The high level of heat this reaches produces the finished product in just 5 hours (2.5 on the express cycle) so I’m not sure about the integrity of any my mychorrizae or microbes. But still, I’m excited to have another way to keep food waste out of landfills. I hope that helps!!

    • @bcworth444
      @bcworth444 Месяц назад

      Interesting. Didn't know you could add carbon components and get closer to a hot compost. And as you say, so fast is very useful. Great info - thank you!

    Thank you! I think is what I'm going to go for with about the same size in my front yard. I might be able to pull off a small solar pump, but that's not guaranteed to work all the time/etc., so this makes sense. What I've dug out so far (with no lineer) is cracked clay now in draught-stricken SE Oklahoma, but it's a "wet" area in the yard (I've found crawdads while digging!) so it might work. One rather large concern I have is that the PVC water pipe to my home goes directly through this someday pond. Is that bad? It would be exposed under the water.

    I compost everything pretty much. I even had a chicken that died of heat stroke get composted and it slow cooked, when I turned the pile the chicken actually smelt like cooked chicken. My compost gets pretty hot though cause of all the chicken poo I add to it and I have to turn it daily to keep the heat down.
