    I am a couple of months short of my 76th birthday and 7 months ago I started a brand new orchard and garden from a paddock of invasive kikuyu ( bought a giant bale of old hay and heaps of cardboard and newspaper to smother it)within 4 months I was supplying us with 90% of our veg be a couple of years of all our fruit but getting plenty of strawberries and will soon be picking raspberries. I have an artificial hip and soon to have another so just get out there like the weedy gardener and start growing best way to care for your physical and mental health😊😊😊

      I’m in my 70s as well good on you for having the courage to do what you have done with your place. Just a suggestion. I have avoided having to have hip replacement by finding out the foods I am allergic to plus not eating sugar. It made all the difference you don’t have to put up with arthritis there is another way. God bless

    I love growing pumpkins vertically. I have a small space so I need to take advantage of vertical spaces as much as possible. I also created cattle panel trellises for tomatoes and non climbing squash. I have small beds so I need to make sure everything is packed as reasonably as possible to maximize the space.

    Hello.. I only discovered your channel last night, and am already enjoying your videos, thank you. I'm excited because they are so clear and informative and you're in the same area as we are so you're referring to the same plants and I can even hear some of my favourite frogs calling :) It's interesting about Wallaby's ringbarking Avos.. We don't lose many plants, but, amongst the fruit trees, avocados have been the ones to succumb.. I thought it was phytopthera or frost and didn't notice any ringbarking, but I know that the wallabies here love avos because we find fruit still hanging from the tree completely, and very neatly, skinned.. It makes me wonder what it is in avo skins that the wallabies crave. 🤔

    You are a natural storyteller 😁 I'm going to watch all your vids over and over. You're imparting not just knowledge but an understanding. I think being in a healthy relationship with our gardens is like being a good friend who listens more than talks .... gardeners should watch and observe a hundred fold more than touch. Blessings

    Weedy, as a fellow Reaper grower, some advice: wear gloves! And make sure to have milk/bread/oil near by in case it becomes a 5-alarm fire.

    Hi Mr. Weedy- have you heard of Tera Petra Soil? It was created by the tribes in the Amazon forest. It’s amazing stuff, groups of scientists have tested soils from all over the world and found that the Tera Petra soil was the most fertile soil on earth. It can be replicated too. It’s worth checking out. Happy garden!

    I love growing sweet potatoes. I laid down a large vinyl tarp (an old billboard sign) as a weed barrier. On top I have rows of 18 wheeler truck tires .. 2 tires high. I use a Sawzall and cut both sidewalls out. In the bottom one I put a large chunk of oak tree about 8 in. thick .. then I put biochar, compost, and sifted soil (no rocks) and fill 1/2 way to the top. Next I take a smaller truck tire .. both sidewalls are cut out .. put in the middle of the top 18 wheeler tire .. and fill to the top. In the smaller top tire I plant 6 slips .. 5 around the inside and one in the middle. I use shredded leaves to lay on top of the dirt as a barrier to the sun so weeds don't grow. When harvest time comes .. I cut all the vines away and take the top smaller tire out .. and in the middle it's easy to gather the sweets by hand .. with a spading fork to sift the top soil. Tires are stable .. they don't break down easy .. but make great pots to grow things in. The large chunk of oak tree trunk acts like a sponge .. slowly releasing moisture to plants. It's another way to use the Hugelkultur method.

  • @pietsnot7002
    @pietsnot7002 8 месяцев назад +1

    I see you made the same mistake l did with the hugel 🤪
    This way we leave to many air ways and tunnels in place for rats and/or voles to do damage plus many plants get root burn because of these airpockets. I struggled growing everything but some fruit trees for the past 5 years on my big hugels and some 9 raised hugel beds, where as l grew in ground (even tilled areas) l always had good results.
    The proper way to build a hugel is in layers, wood and leaves filled in with manure and/or compost and keep layering like that till the last layer is the soil you dug up, then probably it be best to do a cheap cover crop to have everything settle and start breaking down, also, hugels are a thing for high rain areas, otherwise they actualy dry out your soil. After all the work and struggle l’ve had, l’ll never waste good firewood on that again, nature doesn’t bury stuff, it mulches on top and lets the micro organisms do the ”digging” 😉
    Happy growing everyone 🌻🪴🌱🌾🌴🌳🌹
