Mow and blow? Sounds a lot like what a good scything would do. Seen Black Creek Farm and Nursery up in NY utilize a good rough scything for exactly this.
I am still not sure about this. I got fascinated by heavy mulching methods for growing vegetables - Ruth Stout (hay/straw mulch), Back to Eden (wood chips), and Charles Dowding (pure compost as a mulch). And I am now not sure - am I missing something by not growing cover crops around my veggies? By only growing veggies of one kind in a row and having thick mulch around them? Is the soil life still working very well on the mulched ground in comparison to cover cropped ground?
@@Atimatimukti I am an amateur, in case you got the knowledge about cover crops: lets say i heavily seed cover crops. And they grow. WHEN is the BEST time (in terms of benefits for the soil) to chop them or roll them over and let them rot? Is it right BEFORE they set seed?
I plant about 600 acres of food plot every year but that's for the holsteins that make the milk and the meat for human game but I always plant extra for the game.
Hi, I was wondering if there are any good cover crops that I could plant with my potted citrus? Worried that they might compete with the tree too much..
I would plant a wildflower that blooms at a different time than your tree to support your pollinators. They don't use a lot of fertility and they're ornamental. You can thin the seedlings easily if you're seeding in and too many germinate.

Turkeys are highly vulnerable to something called blackhead disease, it's caused by a protozoa- Histomonas meleagridis. Other poultry can also have the disease too, it's just that turkeys are far more vulnerable than other poultry species.
Actually I completely agree with you! Paving planet is most certainly a major contributor to climate change. That reality however was not the subject of this discussion. If we hope to maintain an environment that nurtures the web of life humans depend on to thrive we need to start finding ways to have plants growing on roofs. We need far fewer parking lots if we are to avoid the worst of catastrophic climate change. Moreover new parking lots ( would that there were not any!) can be made so that up to fifty percent of that pavement is not there and very tiny tough plants can be growing in parking lots with this type of grid "pavement". Thing is that is not my realm I am just repeating ideas of others in this reply. We need everyone's expertise and passion if we are going to turn this around. I happen to know a lot more about plants than concrete and pavement. Hence the subject matter of this video. Meanwhile I promise you I act every way I can to resist more concrete and pavement.
Vetch is awful in the SE. I've never planted it, but find clumps of it year after year in my woods. That is the only non-native in my woods. No one near me grows it. Wind, water, or animals likely brought it originally. I remove it every year & thought I'd gotten it all 2 years ago, but I keep find it in mostly new areas. If I don't pull every year, I suspect it could cover most of the ground. 😢
Forgive me, being total amateur, seems like an early on question but i have to ask: In a field lets say i heavily seed cover crops. And they grow. WHEN is the BEST time (in terms of benefits for the soil) to chop them or roll them over and let them rot? Is it right BEFORE they set seed?
Depends on the cover crop. Many of the “no till mulch system” cover crop cocktails they are using here are planted in the fall, overwintered, grow till the start to produce seed heads, and then killed in the spring right before planting through it as mulch! But basically there is an infinite number of different plants and strategies! Some cover crops are permanent, some are summer cc’s and they are killed in the fall. There are fall cover cropping strategies where you plant things that winter kill. There is the idea of understory cropping, like sweet alyssum under tomatoes, or purslane under the corn, or Fukuokue’s white clover everywhere approach. The entire concept in this talk imho with “dynamic cover cropping strategies” is to get creative! So.. to answer your question: yes!
Hi, Is there a cover crop that kills rhizome plants? such as Blackberry or Rosehip. Thank you very much for all the videos that you upload, there is a lot of very useful information. Greetings from El Bolson, Argentina.
How do you start out on a neglected, mostly bare ground in a hot climate with a short, wet winter with low rainfall. Does Sorghum or Millets have the same seedling restrictive capacity as the hybrid sudex.
Wood chips is a good start. But, I’m still trying to decide what I’m going to do in terms of actual cover crops. I’m in Phoenix az. I’ve been using wood chips which must include leaves and they are working well.
@@OfftoShambala Be careful with wood chips for some are indiscriminately made all kinds of recycld wood biomass that are NOT ALLOWED for they are treated with cancer causing chemicals that causes cancers in pets and even in humans but especially in pets for pets wants to roll over wood chips in the same way they want to roll over playfully over grasses. Cover crops are only good if they are a mixture of 50% perennial cover crops and 50% mixture of annuals and biennials that will self-sow and self-bolt by themselves. For the aim is to produce fermenting plant biomass to produce humus after they went through their annual and biennial life cycles.
I’m not an expert but in my experience composted wood chips made during the growing season (ie with lots of leaves mixed in) is good, but for veggies straw is a good bit faster.
I kind of want to experiment with native plants as cover, like maybe using a native annual bunchgrass/native annual clover mix, if you could find species that didn't have dormant seed. Then I wouldn't feel bad if my cover crops reseeded and escaped. But also I feel like I would be luring native insects in only to kill them when the crop gets terminated? I dunno! His comment about toads not getting killed by crimping was encouraging.
I'm a native plant enthusiast & grower on a small scale. I'm in zone 7 & would love to find a source of native clover seeds or cuttings. I agree about flora potentially exploding or ending up somewhere else. Wind, water, birds, and animals transport seeds. But I'm pretty sure that among the choices, I can grow non-risky cover crops, which won't include vetch or non-native clovers.
@@maxmanx1294I'm just a home gardener and though I have gotten some seeds native to my area (not sure if they'd even be available in bulk) I'm still just trying to figure out how to grow them 🤷. I tried one perennial native to my area, but I learned that it is more of a stream/estuary/riverbank type species that wants to grow on a beach, so it can't be used the same way red or white clover can, it has to grow in soil that either naturally has some drainage or has been improved already w/ organic matter. And I've only gotten it to survive with transplants, bc the seedlings get devoured by slugs. Trying a different species this year, hopefully it will be lower maintenance!
only in the last few years have i been driving by farms that are planting red clover IN BETWEEN their crops without tilling .....its a start....what are we going to do with all those disks and plows? farmers are so resistant to change....
i do not disagree with you until you meander from the krebs cycle THAT iS close to trying to re write the Constitution. good luck. IS YOUR PRESENTATION GEARED TOWARD farmers? or the ignorant masses? tell us more about sequestering CO2 , the good and the bad. NEPA says " the positive as well as the negative of a given government proposed action must be considered.
Im sick of this guy acting like concerte isnt the actual problem think about how much heat it hold now ask yourself this with the lack of shade from trees and the increse of heat holding concrete on the rise would it not be likely that the concrete holding heat could be responsible for the raise of temps in the work just saying
My only complaint and immediate let down in the credibility of this speaker is the opening pseudo-factual commentary about how butterflies "evolved" to have eyes on their wings to avoid fatal predation. Macro evolution is a theory, a theory that top mathematicians tell us is so improbable that it approaches impossibility, having close to one chance in the number of atoms in the universe, a theory that has run its course, that has been shown by more intelligent mathematicians and scientists, including biologists, that it never should have been and should no longer be referred to as fact. These partly educated unwise pompous biologist types with their silly university degrees need to stop insulting our intelligence by referring to macro evolution, an impossible series of random events, as fact when it is so painfully obvious that there is intelligence behind the origin and processes of life.
Using a greenhouse doesn’t seem sustainable or regenerative. First there’s tons of pollution to make the product in China. Then more pollution to ship it. And rare earth processing and other electronic components aren’t eco friendly either. Which is why the EPA shutdown and killed the Us dominating the world in rare earth metal processing. That and greenhouses producing carbon to feed plants I get that, but that doesn’t seem eco friendly since if you cared about earth you’d want the plants to remove carbon that’s already in the air. Not make more and then have plants remove it.
The "genius of nature" is called God. Evolution does not do anything with purpose, and perhaps not at all. Doing so would require intelligence. It is a bit foolish to consider design without considering a Designer. Is there evidence of a Designer? Yes, but will you consider it? It depends upon your desire to do so. But why would anyone desire to not consider the possibility of a Designer? Well the most common answer seems to be the lack of desire to believe in accountability for one's own actions. People that do not want to believe in accountability are doing so likely because they are doing some selfish or perverse thing that they do not want to be punished for. They may go into a state of denial in desperation to feel some level of normalcy. Sometimes they may even go so far as to make their questionable actions accepted among their peers to make it seem less selfish or perverse. This of course does nothing in reality except spread immorality like a cancer. Eventually they may find themselves in a state of denial so bad that they wage war against those that practice doing good. If left to fester for long enough, they may even find themselves wanting to live a life of complete selfishness. They may decide that they are entitled to the labor of others, that their own children are parasites fit for slaughter, and live a life solely for the purpose of self gratification. Anyone that stands in their way will be subject to extreme violence and eventual annihilation.
He failed agen!

There is much more biodiversity, both above and underground , with the cover crops. And at the end of their cicle, you can used them as mulch
grow em all together

@@novak23 some say it's as soon as they go to flower but others say, as soon as the flowers fall. I do it when they fall. Then I have more biomass
@@Atimatimukti thank you very much, appreciate for the fast response. Lets see!

If you have time, I imagine mowing and smother cropping might work. I’m using a honeysuckle popper (jack) but tbh it ain’t cake. (It ain’t easy!)
Could i get a link to the sister video?
