"Better to be a warrior in a garden, than to be a gardener in a war." Musashi
You can pretty well throw that out the window when it comes to Mac
Super under rated warrior-philosopher
Any source of self sufficiency is something to be proud of, no matter how advanced.
Thank you for sharing your hard work with us PMac🙏👍
I seldom comment on RUclips, of all your videos I've watched, nothing says you're gnarly and fearless than planting mint in the ground. It's the Russian of the herb garden and spreads and overwhelms like a STI. Pots are fine, ground, not so much... Lemon balm is the same family. For all you've taught me, pots, please.
I love that you registered your chickens as service animals and your yard as a sanctuary. Great ways to stick it to the Karen types that run HOA's and write up town ordnances.
Very impressive! +1 for chickens! If you have a quarter acre… get a half dozen. Bribe the neighbors with fresh eggs, and they hopefully won’t rat you out if the town forbids them
Wholesome af
Back yard is looking good! Pro tip from corn country, hit that corn with some high nitrogen fertilizer a couple times through the growth cycle until it hits about hip high. The light green leaves indicate nitrogen deficiency. It will give a HUGE boost. Thanks for the great content.
the nitrogen fertilizer will destroy the soil food web and end up being a bad move in the long run. that may be a better call for your situation in a larger operation no doubt, but in a garden that compost he's making is better
@@kylechristensen9108 I didn't say it had to be chemical fertilizer. There are plenty of organic options for nitrogen. Composting thrives on equal parts nitrogen and carbon. Corn depletes the soil of the nitrogen needed to stay healthy and composting. Side dressing with some blood meal will not hurt the soil.
Or plant the sisters in the same bed. Or rotate the corn into the beans bed next planting?
@@CheddarActual For sure. planting nitrogen fixing plants such as beans or clover will help replenish the nitrogen along with adding bio mass to the soil. But corn is such a heavy feeder, that alone is not enough and will lead to low yields.
@@rustyschackelford9645 you're right. sorry for the hasty correction. glad you're in the know, clearly
The Best Fertilizer Lies Beneath Those Beds...6' Get Ya Some Mac...💚
Let the cucumbers go vertical. You rock!
I love it brother, I need to set something like this up. Save on grocery shopping and know what your eating.
Man, that is a serious garden.
For more info on food production I recommend Joel Salatin.
Geez Mac! That corn is unbelievable. We don't plant outside here by Lake Superior til late May/early June. We shoot for "knee high by 4th of July". Rock on.
Damn, that’s a cool garden.
You have the teacher’s gift, Mac. You can get people jazzed for things they wouldn’t normally interested in, with just your enthusiasm alone. Rock on, man!
More interesting than Batman
Fruit trees are a nice long term investment. Lemon and apple takes a few years, but it's pretty nice. Furthermore you can graft 7 diffrent types of apple tree limbs to one tree. So you can really get quite the variety out of an apple tree.
yup yup yup! keep it up. I've been gardening for several years. there's real enjoyment to growing your own food
I’m down in south Florida and everything I grow is a fight! I’ve given up growing things that can’t take the Florida sun and have been focusing on growing things that can take the heat. Cherry tomato’s, sweet potato, cassava, Seminole pumpkin, mulberries, anything that can take the Florida sun!
Florida has 3 growing seasons fall ,winter and spring. Knowing when to start planting is the secret. For tomatoes use a black light at night for tomato horn worms.
Nice!
I'm a little late getting the yard-gard started in Florida but will do so soon. Thanks for some bits of info.
Tip to introduce a new chicken to the group; spray them all with a cheap perfume so they all smell the same. The older chicken will not be able to detect the new one.
They can still identify each other based on sight and will attack accordingly. Best practice is to not keep chickens of different maturity levels together.
Its amazing what you can grow with a little space and a little know how. Thanks for sharing Pat!
Nice garden!
The many sides of Pat - gun slinger to green thumber. 🤘

Damn man you are soo right about about stuff growing here in N.C. Next best thing to the jungle !! Cheers 😁 And just got done building my own set of raised beds myself , trying to learn "new" things ! Guy Speight
Looking good!
THANKS MAC!
Even though I live on a roof in an entirely built-up country (the stupid Netherlands) I should totally try this out with the plant holding things you can hang from the railing of said balcony...
Who knew food came from the garden and eggs came from yard birds. I thought this all came from the store.... I better fact check this on Twitter 🙂 - Rock on Pat Mac.
Pat, if you are around the Fayetteville area and want a bigger spot to garden in, I got you covered man. Got mine going a couple of weeks ago and another round is going in the ground in another week or so
Just wanted to say that you are a huge inspiration. Especially your "Baisc Dude Stuff" - series changed me.
Great setup!
You’re the man Pat Mac! Thanks for your insights into your school of man. God bless and Rock and roll!
Reduce the tomato horizontals, presrve the verticals, and let the plant focus on the fruit. Good tidings.
My life goal is to have a self sustaining garden one day.
Look'n good!
Pat, you have been coming up in my feed with short, to the point, 5 minutes training bites… love it. Great work. Thank you!
Our garden is a little bit bigger the same size and we still have left overs to can for putting back. Looks good,more people need to start growing their own gardens. Not paranoid as you would say,it's just a wise decision with even Xiden admitting there may be food shortages.
Amazing garden! I'm in SC and started all my plants from seed this year. It has a ways to go compared to the height of your plants. Good stuff.
Excellent video and garden.
This is amazing! Would love to see more garden/self sufficiency vids rock on!!!
Loved the tour. Great stuff.
I’m so jealous. Early date up here is June 1. My seeds are still in the basement
Where’s the fruit trees man? Rock N roll🤘🏽💪
Thanks for sharing. It helps build that “looking forward to it” feeling for gardening here in Maine. Frost is out of the ground but we’ll still more than likely have a few nights too cold to justify planting yet.
Im your neighbor in NH, and I usually don’t do a thing til almost Memorial Day.
@@MisterTwister88 Yessir. The first of may we’ll start prepping, nothing in the ground until at least the middle of the month.
@@MisterTwister88 that said, I tossed some beans, pease, onions and garlic in various pots and got them started in the daylight basement sunlight. Growing like weeds!
Sweet
I like nanner peppers too, Pat. Use hot nanner🌶's and can those guys up. Id eat a quart on Friday night and have what I call, "a burning at both ends, weekend " .
"HEIRBZ!!!!" 👍😎
My wife does some thing with seeds in a mason jar for micro greens. It happens pretty fast.
Pat check out Korean Natural Farming. It teaches how to garden while not using any bought nutrients and instead making your own with lactobacillus from rice and literally sprouted popcorn kernels among others . Finally it teaches soil replenishment through cover crops etc.
Just planted the potatoes but still too early to plant the rest here in Wisconsin, mother nature is still currently bi polar.
surprised to see no fruit trees at all. Great bang for your buck in terms of calories!
Garden looks great cant wait to plant mine but we have had over 28" of snow in the last 30 hours so it's gonna be awhile.
Awesome- looks great 👍
Nice tour. Looks like a great garden and well thought out. Any plans for an asparagus patch or berries in the future? \m/ \m/
Good video man
Pat where in the country that your garden is doing so well??????? I am south of Norfolk and west of Va Beach... we have had a frost the last few years in May... Prep on and Sempr Fi
Microgreens are the way to go for me living in an apartment
Watch the whole Video. Rock n Roll
Food plots are better then lawns. Abandon societal expectations of needing a lawn. That whole garden could be calorie crops and it wouldn't be enough. More potatoes, grains, sweet potatoes, and squash.
Nice set up
From one gardener to another, rocking garden Pat! Off topic, what shoes are you wearing, Merrill? Rock n' roll brother! 🤘
I had no idea chickens will eat cherry tomatoes.
I’m just getting started with gardening, what if you produce more than you eat/need?
This must be an older vid judging by the wood planters.
Do you start from seed or buy plants? And when do you usually plant? I have never been able to successfully grow corn. It either gets eaten buy pests or just is sickly. Great looking garden!! So awesome.
Bro, I can help you with them slowing down!!!! I got 30 chickens or more. We raise layin hens too. If you want some good , healthy tips on the chickens and laying, hit me up! We been doing it for some years now, moving onto pigs now! Hot damn, love what your doin. Oh, got baby chickens hatching too! Under the momma, not a incubator. My son, 8, and my bride helps with it all. We have a family Ranch in Missouri.
We have rabbits in our neighborhood. How do you keep them out?
Nice garden. I love tomatoes, green and red. I need chickens for eggs and meat but I’m in the damn city , not supposed to have livestock.
Suggestions
Yeah get out
Throw some banana peels around your tomatoes and pepper plants and watch them grow like a weed after that
How has your experience been with bugs? I can't seem to keep them out of my plants
No devils lettuce lol
Tim taylor, should do some videos with you! Like on tool time, but you are way cooler. Tim Taylor, from the show Tool Time.
How do you keep the rabbits and Squirrels from eating everything??
I’ve gotten some rolls of cheap wire, one inch squares or something like that, used T posts and surrounded the whole garden five feet high. That keeps rabbits and deer out. Believe it or not, rubber garden snakes from a dollar store, one placed in each box and moved around every few days has kept squirrels out of our boxes. The only pests we fight now are bugs. Still trying to figure that out. Using diatomaceous earth.
Where did you get that composter?
Salsa recipe?
Do you have rodent problems with all this produce/chicken buisness
