Don't forget to comment below about adding the farm content back to this channel. Yes for "Go for it Rob!"
Or
No for "We're only into you for your fish!"
Many thanks to you all for your patience.
Rob, B & Jack 🐾🐾
good day .i feel there is no need for two channels.
just remove backyard from this channels title and add an 'ing' to farm and all ya problems are solved easy peasy
Go for it 🎉
No. There is too much homestead stuff and not enough aquaponics stuff. It will be too much to dredge through to find content
No, While I subbed to watch fish (Aquaponics) I am no longer into that for years now. I stayed subbed because I really liked when you came out with other content like the self watering IBC's and other parts to your channel. I was so happy you started the gardening and farming channel. It seems folks that are into Aquaponics only want to see that. Like nothing else exists. lol In my experience with watching various aquaponic channels, it's pretty hard to come up with new fresh content. It's pretty much the same thing over and over in different ways and camera angles. Gardening in tubs and in ground, raised beds etc (traditional gardening) can also have aquaponics. Case in point. Mark from self sufficient me. :D I don't aquaponic but I have a 500 gallon Koi pond that I use the water from with my raised beds. It rains a lot in Tennessee so I always have enough water to use and keep it from overflowing. Stress free, no tubs and aquaponics set up and expense. No pumps to worry about, All I have to control is bugs in my garden. :D We rarely eat fish and if we wanted any we have several rivers and natural ponds to go fishing at in beautiful areas close to home. With my "pond" which is an enormous plastic multi-cattle watering tub that is dug into the ground if the power goes out in my very rural area we can bucket water into our 55 gallon filter and the fish will be fine for a long time. We are working on setting up a solar pump but don't really need to. It's easy for us to tend and being in our 60's a lot less hassle. Now if you did that with your various ponds I would be all into that. Mother nature pretty much takes care of the fish and just pump it to your gardens, Also the rain collection systems.
Its all self sufficiency type content. Just call it Robs out the back! Save yourselves the time/work of two channels and just put it all on one. Don't worry about the whiners. People are free to click away if they aren't interested in a specific video! 👍
Yes , enjoy watching your content. Bob, so put it wherever you want. Just let us all know where it's going and we'll watch it for sure
Yes "Go for it Rob!" 🤠👍 Y'all have playlists to group aquaponics vids for folks just here for that. We like all the bits! 😁👍 Cheers.
I love both the aquaponic stuff and the growing stuff, so Yes for me, however: which ever action improves your algorithmic reach is what I 100% support you doing - whether that's yes or no. More success to you, thanks for the update.
I agree 👍
Yes. Learning about aquaponics has led me to learn more about farming, homesteading and gardening as well.
YES!!!. It's easier for me to get everything from 1 channel.
Yes, definitely merge! I've been following for years, things and people change and I enjoy the way you portray a possible sustainable life. Plus, I'd rather choose to skip than miss your content. Keep up the great work!
Rob I have been watching you for years I say yes. I look forward to watching your farm grow.
Yes.
I am interested in both and it will be probably better for the channel. Having separate channels is really time consuming, deciding where to put which video etc.
Yes, it’s best for algorithms to be on one channel. After all I started watching for the backyard farm videos first
YES. Makes it easier to handle because you WILL be busy.
Hello Rob, I have enjoyed both channels but I like your idea of merging back with your main. Everything is looking great! Looking forward to watching your progress. Cheers!
I enjoy both channels but you do what you need for your best.
Yes Rob, will watch and like and even comment to help. I enjoy your content and we have to support our local youtubers🙂
Yes go for it !! I am perfectly fine with other content besides aquaponics on this channel. Your projects are always interesting and informative. I like to watch how you change the place and how it evolves.
Nice farm! Go for it Rob! It will be so satisfying to watch your new place evolve!
YES YES Yes, what make you tube work is videos.... just post farms stuff wensdays etc... sunday for aquaponics .....
I lost 2 tomatoes plants dam bush birds up on the beds, crushing them... but amazing growth.... ill do you a video next week, that will be 3 weeks from transplant, just running on 1lt Charlie carp per month..
you can use video if you want...
Oh yes, put it all o one page. Best all in one place. Love content
Combine everything into one channel. Simplify your life in that regard. I'll always watch both!
I have been watching your videos for some time now. Always find the content helpful. I am a yes for 1 channel
Go for it Bob, they go together.
Place looks amazing guys, looks like you have had some good rain up that way.
The place is cleaning up nicely.
I'm happy with any updates you guys make whether here or the new channel
Yes for Go for it Rob.
Just do what feels right, we will still be here. Those that don’t like it, just let it go 👍🤣
Yes, it will make it easier for you with everything you have to do on your new farm
yes. I had expected the 2 channels to be more different than they are. So just cram them together.
Go for it Rob
Yes, combine them. You have enough going on in your world to also have to manage 2 channels. Personally, I watch the content from both and it won't change my experience at all. Keep up the good work!
Both are absolutely relevant to the self sustainable life. Definitely go together seamlessly. How they fit together in your new place will be beneficial to both farm life and aquaponics. Not everyone has a pond...but soon, everyone will see the need for both aquaponics and homesteading. What a world!
Yes, you guys have run yourselves ragged. Take care of you both and I love everything that you are doing .
It's good to see a new video on the Auqaponics channel.
Maybe you should just call it "Rob Bob's Aquaponics & Farm" channel.
After all, it's no longer a backyard.
One channel is easier to follow than two.
YES.
Yes happy to follow you guys on one channel, seems like the best solution
Yes. A mix of farm and garden is good.
Yes, I watch both channels anyway. :)
Yes please also been watching since you started and both are interesting. I do miss the aquaponics but it will be nice to get back to that but the farm live is also interesting and thats were you started this channel
I have only been watching for a few years, I did not mind the farm stuff. But the Outdoor Boys started on their channel Cat fish & Carp a few years before. it took years to grow both channels for Luke. But now the Outdoor Boys is a bigger channel even though it is a few years younger. SO i guess you just have to commit to what your deciding to do. I think I don't mind both. You can not please everyone. you may lose some people either way. You guys got me hooked on this channel though. Also got me wanting a homestead. lol Sorry for the confusing answer. Yes for "Go for it Rob!"
Yes. Enjoy all of your content
I think one channel would be a great idea. Love ya work mate.
Big YES!
Love that you're hooking up with Hoocho.
Cheers.🇨🇦
Yes ....from Cyprus.
Great job Rob
Yes, yes, and yes. Happy farming. 🌻
Yes, sounds like a good plan to have one channel
Go for it! I love seeing your stuff
Please combine, I love watching growing food.
Yes
Best merge the 2 yes yes yes
Yes.
Yes I think it may be easier because I don't get as many notifications that I use to glad your finally getting time to do stuff now the sun's decided to make an appearance for more then 1 day
Hi Rob. Watch both channels but happy tip go to 1!
Been watching and learning for c. 10 years
Will follow wherever...
Suggest title - ROB BOB
Yes please. Blend it back to one channel.
Good idea. I'll watch regardless.
I love this new beginning, I can't wait to see how it progresses. I saw that with hollis and nancy when they moved to there new home. I say yes. I hope you do show tutorials on what your building, planting and new ideas with your aquaponic system.
Yes combine them. I wasn’t able to see the last live stream on RUclips.
YES. Very good idea combining them both.😁
Yes! You do a good job at separating play lists so just keep doing that.
I'm East of you guys.
The greenhouses are good for winter. We do get some cold snaps.
It's also good for keeping the sky chems off the food as well as the occasional storm.
Hot as in the warmer months. I cover mine with some shade cloth to keep it cooler in summer.
Your place is starting to look good man. Stay awesome
Thanks JH. These ones are ripped to shreds. The goannas like to climb up the walls to climb into the vents...
@@RobsAquaponics buggers
when you put up a new fence, make it electric. after those critters get zapped a few times, they won't even think about coming back :-)
We're looking at some electric netting at the moment so that might make a good stop gap measure.
Yes one channel
Yep all good. What ever works out best for you I’m cool on, Kate 😊
Yes, best to keep everything on one channel.
Looking good mate 😊😊😊
Definitely a yes if it better for your ability to earn. No money no channel. Has to sustain itself.
Whatever suits you best.
i have no issues with either option.
but merging would make it easier.
Missing the Aquaponics stuff thou.
I already gave a yes on the other channel. I encourage you to look into eating pumpkin leaves. Our previous neighbour's from Nepal introduced us to stir fried pumpkin leaves with garlic and cumin. Delicious!!
Yes I love to watch both
Yes I watch both :)
Yes merge, you have a lot of long days to get all your systems and zones set up. Please make it easier on yourself.
I don't mind combination channel so a yes from me I follow on both.... Looking good all that rain done well for your property it's so nice and green 💚
Nice to hear from you. I might have a couple solutions for you guys. First the under ground power line. In the US there is normally a local phone number to call. They will come out and scan and locate the underground utilities.
As for your critter problem. Long Pallets. Stood up like a privacy fence.
That's basically what I'm doing here in the US. I'm in the process of setting up an IBC as a fish tank, and 55 gallon plastic barrels cut length wise for wicking beds. I decided to stand up 2 Pallets and sandwich the barrel half between the top of them. But since the Pallets were wider (taller) than I expected they will be a good fence as well.
There is a "dial before you dig" service here as well but it only covers services coming into the property.
I'm thinking I might use some ridged wire fence panels to knock something together. Will post the results once it happens. 😉👍
Yes, make one channel
wow it is amazing i love it.😍😍😍😍😍😍❤❤
Concrete blocks that hold 4x4's, sit on top of the ground, then you won't have to push anything into the ground. And if, later on you change your mind, the entire fenced in area can be disassembled and moved, no digging!
We have some sleepers that may just fit but they're down at the old house. Thanks for that. Might nip into Bundy & grab some if I can't find anything suitable here.
I watch both anyway, so it doesn't bother me either way 😂
Rob ya up our way by the sound of it. Good luck with it all.
Tip..keep the chooks away from ya veg arwa. You'd know that.
Yes Thanks
One channel with a video once a week would probably work better than two channels with videos more sporadically.
Yes. Way back I had found you due to some chicken hacks. And then all the “Bits out the Back”. You just now have a bigger “Back”. In my opinion it is an easy decision to combine and include the farmstead.
Cheers Mr Dave. B wants to name the farm so we may include that in the channel name as well.
First things first though, time to make content!! 🤣👍😁
Yes 😊
Roll the 2 channels, it will be easier for everyone.
Yes!
Yes. Merge it all
I bought an underground cable locator MY6818 Cable Tracker off eBay was able to find the power lines on my property, can also do water lines but you have to push the probe down it - just disable the power and put the transmitter unit on the line and the receiver will find it pretty accurately and was able to find them pretty deep (600-750mm from memory).
Thanks for that. I saw your comment yesterday & had a bit of a google. Looks to be a fairly cheap unit too.
yes
With the pumpkin you can freeze it. I have just ran out and have planted more. It was 2yrs since i have had a vine.
We have a load in the freezer gifted to us from friends. This lot is cut up into roasting size bits but would like some frozen puree for soups as well. 😁👍
Cheers Amanda.
You could use metal detector to detect where the power line is underground
We have been thinking about getting one...🤔 Thanks mate, I now have a reason. 😉
Beautiful ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Yes 👍
Yes 👋
joint should be fine we just switch between the channels
Bigger backyard farm with aquaponics and hydroponics...
With Robert and Bianca.
🤔 Backyard on steroids with R & B?
Don’t forget to hit like 👍
i watch both channels so it doesn't bother me, maybe use the other channel for short form farm updates etc.
Or call it bits out back with aquaponics ;)
Yes, consolidate that content. No reason to split it between two channels, especially with how the other one is at like 1% of the viewership of the other. Instead, just setup a regular schedule and bombard people with twice the content. Rob Bob's Aquaponics & Bits out the Backyard Homestead, here we come!
Yes move it over : Bob’s your uncle
Yes, but where the hell are you if Hervey Bay is south of you?
Childers area. 😁👍
I'm not allowed to give any input, I've only been following for about 9 years, 1 year short of a decade :(
For me it's convenient to merge, I won't need to keep an eye on 2 channels for new videos, as well as when I wanted to refer back to a video I won't need to search through 2 channels. However it's not an inconvenience as it is. Whatever you think is best for your success as a content created, go ahead and do that.
😂 I'll allow it this once. 😉
