We’re gardening in the Philippines and are experiencing tiny white flies on our eggplant. The flies are 1 millimetre or less and very difficult to control. It seems they feed on the underside of the leaves until the leaf turns yellow then move onto another leaf. We’ve tried commercial and homemade pesticides with very little success. We would surely appreciate some suggestions here if someone knows a gentle solution. Thank you for the videos Jon, you are a very kind and special variety of human, a very fine specimen. Thank you for being you!🥰👍
Very good information. I like the Wood Vinegar idea! (smell of smoke). Last year I grew a lot of pole beans on a bamboo tepee .. and underneath in the middle .. I grew large cherry tomatoes .. it seems that the pole beans helped to keep the tomato horn worm away from the tomato plants. I will continue this idea to see how it will be useful. We have fire ants .. not too much .. but you sure want to be careful around them.
Is it assumed that permaculture is inclusive of practices around regeneration and restoration or are these additional practices much like wholistic management or what Yeoman developed in the early part of the 20th century?
Thank you. I am not sure I understood the snail part at 5:42 Do I have to take out the snails and put them together with sugar in a bucket ? then they will die and make a liquid to water the vegies? this is for what, repel other snail or feed the plants ?
My best way to prefent pest is to grow my plants in plastic bag or any plant place. I place my plants in good area that doesnt have pest problem. I farm for self sufficiant so i dont need to plant a lot. Its help a lot. Until now i doesnt have pest problem
For a few years now, I have acquired a 4000 m2 plot, which belonged to a maternal uncle of my wife. I wanted to leave it fallow, while waiting for my retirement, before taking care of it, like a good romantic city dweller dreaming of a return to nature. My wife's aunt, who lives in the village and takes care of her family's land, did not hear it that way. She asked the manager of her land to take care of my plot as well. We have to choose between two options to deal with the manager: either to join in half (and therefore to invest money) by bearing the benefits or the risks, or to let him exploit the plot for part of his production. Not yet being ready for an investment in the land, I chose the second solution. For years he has practiced monoculture on the land he manages. In general, wheat is grown and, occasionally, broad beans or beans. I have always had other projects for the field (organic farming projects), but I did not have specific ideas on how to proceed. With the videos that we can see over the last few years on the Internet regarding what is now called permaculture, I am starting to get a better idea of what to do next. But I don't want to rush the manager, especially since he risks wondering what this arrogant city dweller can teach him, he, a farmer from father to son. By testing him with indirect questions, I understood his way of seeing things. First, the issue of closure. My other townsmen neighbors to whom my wife's uncle sold plots hurriedly put up wire fences. I want a living hedge like most native villagers. They mainly use the jujube tree and the prickly pear (for which, moreover, the edible aspect seems secondary to them). The manager thinks this attracts snakes and reduces land space. But I am looking for this biodiversity and the edible side of these plants interests me. The virtues of jujubes and prickly pears are recognized. In addition, these plants do not need special maintenance. It also spontaneously grows an interesting endemic plant, the caper tree. I also want to build a mud house. He thinks that before that, I have to dig a well. But there are administrative complications that do not encourage me. Not to mention the cost and risk of having to drill several places before finding water. I think I am entitled to the village well since I contributed to its drilling. There is also the river which is a few hundred meters from the village. There is still the possibility of collecting rainwater. Retired for a year, I intended to start with the fencing matter and to ask the manager to reserve me a plot of 100 m2 so that I can start my soil regeneration experiments, for instance. But Covid19 delayed the project, in addition to the stress it caused by sowing doubt in our minds on the very possibility of surviving it. Sir Jon's videos have been a big consolation for me, thank you very much, Sir Jon. Greetings from Morocco.
Nice video Jon. Was that a slow worm at 11:14 ? You didn't mention spiders. In Thailand I think near Buriram, I remember seeing a huge spider's web between two trees and in it was a large butterfly.
I am dealing with pest n fungus on my flowers and veggies... I'm using organic pesticides as I believe in organic growing.... Problem is anything organic is very expensive even the wood vinegar... Only the snail killers are cheap
@@MerwinARTist Urban housing not conducive to make wood vinegar... I shudder to think how my neighbours will take it lol lol Not only it's expensive here but it looks like very light in color God only knows if it's the end product 🙄🙄
Thanks for sharing your wisdom. I hope this chanel can get to more people in the world. Love from Vietnam.
*Also free-range chickens can eat a lot of pests.*
They can also eat the plants
Ducks 🦆 are better

Short answer for best food growing is #permaculture 🌿
Is it assumed that permaculture is inclusive of practices around regeneration and restoration or are these additional practices much like wholistic management or what Yeoman developed in the early part of the 20th century?

Mix 5 mL neem oil, 2 mL of liquid soap and 1 L of water.
1:15 so what's your opinion on Aquaponics ? :)
Can we use urine to control insects in garden
Plz make video on individual crop farming
My garden soil is infected with termites. They quickly built it nest in the wet broken branches. How to solve this problem in the soil in my garden?

very true
👍👍👍
Method to destroy ant, I can’t clear it well. Can you please explain it again? Really thanks for your videos a lot
Awesome tips...churr!
Will the snails die after eating sugar?
They die and become good compost .
@@JonJandaiLifeisEasy tks so much.
Am always scared of snakes but not anymore 😊
Healthy soil also captures carbon in the atmosphere w is why people are turning to no til farming and organic
I am dealing with pest n fungus on my flowers and veggies... I'm using organic pesticides as I believe in organic growing.... Problem is anything organic is very expensive even the wood vinegar... Only the snail killers are cheap
Maybe you can learn to make "wood vinegar" .. and maybe Jon Jondai has an easy way to make it. www.woodvinegar.org/14-steps-to-make-wood-vinegar.html

Urban housing not conducive to make wood vinegar... I shudder to think how my neighbours will take it lol lol
Not only it's expensive here but it looks like very light in color
