      Lord bless this family in their time of loss, and time of suffering. Asking that you put your arms around them and pull them close to you and bring comfort to their heavy hearts. Touch their son that is dealing with this horrible sickness and asking you bring healing to his body in Jesus name.

    I’ve been watching your videos for years and learned so much about permaculture from you. We built rabbit tractors and have those moved around. The rabbits eat down the grass and invasive weeds, then their manure is left behind. I pull weeds from the garden and feed it to them. It’s miraculous to see what 2 years of this had done to the soil, grass, and animals.

    FYI, plants cannot access the calcium in slightly crushed up eggshells, although they may benefit from other nutrients in the egg. If you want to actually use eggshells in the garden, they need to be dried and then crushed into a powder which can then be processed by microbes in the soil into a form that can be used by the plant. You can compost them to break them down, but that will also go faster if you crush them up well before putting them in.

    We have a greenhouse like that. It’s twice the length though and it does get hot also. Couple of things we did was add a screen door,a shade cloth (inside) and used a small shop fan that we tilted upwards to help move the air around and it helped a lot. We had baseball size hail and to fix the holes we made patches with the leftover plastic siding with some silicone glue. Blends in great and you can’t really tell there’s damage.

    A study from Alabama Cooperative Extension compared coarsely ground eggshells (crushed by hand) to finely ground eggshells (resembling a fine powder), along with a comparison to pure calcium Ca(OH)2 and agriculture lime. The Alabama study revealed the coarsely ground eggshells "were not much better than nothing at all." However, the finely ground eggshells performed just as well as the pure calcium, both also outperformed the agriculture lime. (Mitchell, 2005)
    So, if you are going to use eggshells make sure is finely ground. Also, if you put the entire egg and broken you are at risk of rats, raccoons, and other critters digging up your tomatoes to get to the egg yolk. The big chunks of eggshells will not break the calcium until next season, so, put the eggshell in a coffee grinder to grind into a fine powder to get the calcium to the tomato plant.

    Coco Loco (sifted) is all i will ever use for starting seeds. Highest and fastest germination and EVERYTHING grew so fast and strong that i could've waited another month to start tomatoes and peppers. All of the pepper and tomato seeds germinated between 2-7 days! I did use heat mat, like ghts, and the bootstrap farmer airprune tray inside the short sided trays with dome. Covered the top of the soil with vermiculite too. The Coco Loco is sooooo good! Worth the investment to keep the plants in this potting mix until being planted out. I didn't have to fertilize at all!

    On building the wall in the high tunnel for chickens, unless u have very flighty chickens or are doing this against predators, I'm guessing u don't need a solid wall all the way to the peak.. ? Obviously you guys r super experienced AND creative, & have a lot of idea-generating minds there ;), but here's my idea (based on my having a bunch of cheap, flexible window screen material I got once) : Using tape or little clips of some sort, attached in some way, drape screen from peak down to the more solid wall w the door in it. Love your fam. & place and all u do for everyone ! May God bless and keep you all, and be merciful and gracious to you !

    You should use something on the raised beds and the chicken cop fence to make them last longer and look prettier next to the new house..
    there are so many good nontoxic products on the marked now. At least use linseed oil with some pigment .
    It will look so much better and keep the wood longer and stop it from drying out and crack.

    By watching I've learned that the challenges of excessive moisture and end rot which is prevalent in the est is seldom a problem in the west like my state of Idaho. I use t-tape to water so I do not get the leaves wet. The top layer of the garden looks very dry because it is. The water from the t-tape soaks directly below the plants. The rest of the garden does not get any water which reduces the growth of weeds. I love your channel! There is lots to learn!

    Hi, guys/Rhodes Fam ! On watering soil blocks, just wanna let folks know that you can also bottom water them. Or, any gentler sprinkling can, for more established plants in blocks anyway - the soil is held together by roots pretty well. I use a spray bottle for little ones sometimes, esp. if the top is what's drying out badly in strong sunshine even thru a window and you have small seeds in or on em. Generally I bottom water. I have em on mesh trays, sitting in a solid tray. I got the cheaper ones from Johnny's ( actually had the best price at the time, incl. shipping), I just couldn't afford the more durable solid trays and I'd hoped to have gotten to where I'm doing it like the Rhodes by the time I needed something else. However , I have sensitivities to molds & I'm not sure about wood trays now, how to keep em from molds & also having bulkier, heavier stuff to move, as we are still in a rental but hope to change that asap. I also use boot trays to set pots or mesh trays of blocks on, to bottom water &/or catch water/protect surfaces etc. .

      I don’t know if they do this, but we have to be gluten free and low carb, eating similarly to them. We dehydrate zucchini and then grind it into flour and replace up to half of keto and gluten free flours with zucchini flour to save grocery money. It works pretty well in most recipes with minimal changes at times to moisture and finished texture.

    I really enjoy watching the Rhodes family, and I encourage watching them, but my one thought, and I’m not trying to be mean or critical, but I’d go other places to find accurate factual gardening advice. The egg in the tomato hole doesn’t add any calcium because the shells have to be completely pulverized to be taken up by the plant. The electrpculture has been proven to have zero effect on plants.
    The woo woo stuff is to be taken with a grain of salt.
    Again, I’m just trying to keep things real and not being a detractor. I watch every vlog!
    If they’d do more serious research they’d double their views . Credibility is important!
