    I've read that the Rice needs to be cooked (sticky rice works the best) and cooled before putting into the stocking. When you bury it leave it for at least a month for best population.

    It’s a mutualistic relationship. Without fungus, plants could never had colonized the bare rock. Without the plants, the fungus would have a hard time obtaining moisture and it gets food from the plants. Taught high school science for over 30 years. Loved it

    your right it is a dream out there. If I were going to go back to a farm, I would model it after what you've done with your homestead. It's organized and balanced. Clean looking as well. Fencing is great and well thought out. Great job.

    Also when putting out your cover crop seeds, it is a good idea to lay down straw. Not real thick but enought to keep soil from drying out from wind and the sun. Leave no soil uncovered.

    An idea for the sandpit, put it inside a 3 person dome tent (or bigger), it then provides shade for the kiddies, and you can zip it up when not in use so no animals pee/poop in the sand :)

      I AM ORGANIC GARDENING Hello, friend. Your series on how soil works was so good! I want to watch it again and get a better grasp on it, but I'm struggling to find it. The one where you used props; a piece of garden hose, a block of wood etc., and said to plant sunflowers as a stand-in for a tree (I could have that part wrong; like I said, I need to watch it again!). Can you tell me the title of the series so I can review it, please?

    Hi Art ,
    I don't walk well and I certainly do not chase chickens to catch them. It's not good for me and possibly not good for the chickens. Excitement , stress , Adrenalin and all that. So , I use a fisherman's net . They come in various sizes so there is a size for everyone. I use a fairly large one with about a six foot handle on it. Just the thing to reach out and catch a chicken. I doubt if it is actually easier on the chicken in terms of pumping Adrenalin and stress . But it is certainly easier on me . And effective also. So it saves time.

  • @eddeetz493
    @eddeetz493 6 лет назад +2

    A hanger bent into a v mounted on the end of a can pole makes catching chickens much easier. Hook a leg and or let the pole chase in a boxed area. Fish net idea also sounds good.

    I did a survey with Teespring about the tee shirts. I told them that it would have been a good idea to let others know that the tees are from Hanes and Hanes runs small. They need to offer bigger sizes. But, that being said, I love my tee and the color and the feel of the imprint feels like velvet. Great pond, the boys love it. Have a blessed day.

    @dananelson3534 6 лет назад +1

    I enjoy all your videos and haven't watched even half. A pond is a neat idea I've toyed with the idea of aquapondics. You use stock tanks to raise tilapia and then pump the water from the tanks to raised beds to water and fertilize the plants. The plants filter the fish waste and the water returns by gravity to the tanks. It's a good system for a greenhouse, but the cost is why I've only thought about it, besides the landlord. Roadrunner's still alive. Another you tuber traps coyotes, raccoons, and other predators. He makes some money and the neighbors appreciate the service. Thanks for sharing.

    I'm going to try this. I have 4 pairs of hose. I guess I will pick that many different locations to bury it in. Every gardener I know I will offer to share the end results if I can bury some rice somewhere in their garden until a month before planting time. Then I will let it all sit together and see what happens.

    I sincerely want to congratulate you about this nice agroecological farm!!!! Kids are so happy!! And cattle too!!!
    I know this method using half-cooked rice for trapping SEMO (Soil Efficient Microorganisms). The trap must be buried for about a week... And then, those useful inoculum can be increased using some special mixtures (a lot of recipes are available). My best regards from Argentina!!!

    We had a tree chopped down and kept all the wood chips. Not that long after sitting they had all these beautiful white mycorrhizal fungi strings throughout. I think they just naturally show up in woodchips.

    • @CraigOverend
      @CraigOverend 6 лет назад

      Communities of saprotrophic ("rotten material" + "plant") fungal hyphae (web) that break down wood chips and above ground plant litter tend to fruit mushrooms to spread their spores by air, mold uses explosive sacs to spread their spores into the air, whereas root-associated endo (internal to the root) or ecto (external) mycorrhizae ("fungus" + "root") form symbiotic relationships with living plants and reproduce from spores in sacs on the hyphae (web) at the roots. Without plants to host them, mycorrhizae tend to die off. The different types are also often vertically separated in soils. So you want both, and collecting above ground litter and below ground feeder roots can help spread the latter. Succession in forests has been shown to correlate with the interconnectedness of plants and so collecting fungal species that can interconnect plants at their roots or decompose material aboveground to feed them will aid succession. When a tree falls and is left to decompose it creates a food pathway for fungal hyphae to create super highways connecting plants. We can replicate this by leaving intact trunks or branches in contact with soil between plants.
      The white strings aka hyphae (webs) can also be formed by bacteria such as Actinomycetes.

    Hi Art and Bri ,
    Actually you can make a real pond. You have some sloped land which makes it even easier. For your source of water you can make a modest ram pump and pump water from your creek to the pond and then direct the overflow back to the creek. No net loss of water to the creek. Except for the initial filling of the pond.. Or you can direct rain water from the roof of your barn to the pond. In essence you are capturing and storing rain water.
    Once the pond is created , do not do anything to it. Wait and see what Nature does . You will be simply amazed ! Think you can figure out how you got fish in your pond without putting fish in yourself ?
    I am not certain about this . You will have to inquire yourself but I think that the government will assist in making a pond if it will be large enough. The pond is also a source of water for the fire department water pump trucks. Suppose there is a fire at a nearby farm and the pump truck has run out of water ? They can refill the pump truck from your pond. But the most amazing thing is to see what Nature does with your pond.

Not to mention seeing little children running around on the ground thorougnly enjoying it, climbing trees, playing in the dirt, petting and loving the animals, helping in the gardens. It remimds me of my childhood at that exact age range at my Grandads heels. They used to call me Grandaddys shadow. He didmt make a move that i wasnt right behind him or on his shoulders. My Grandaddy passed away when i was 11 yrs old. It was my 2nd experiemce w death but the 1st i was old enough to understand what it meant. He was the only REAL FATHER figure i hv ever had. Even tho it was 37 yrs ago this yr, I still miss him terrible. My life would hv been so much different had he been with me thru my teens and young adult life. RIP GRANDADDY, I LOVE YOU!
