    To improve your ground, place a milk jug or bucket of water near the ground rod with a pin hole in it to keep the ground moist. It will conduct electricity better in dry weather

    • @theburnhams2925
      @theburnhams2925 11 месяцев назад

      An excellent suggestion. Another might be to GET A REAL GROUND ROD! Placed along the drip line of a roof edge keeps more moist. But honestly, my heart went out to Evan pounding those short stakes into what seemed, for all practical purposes, like cured concrete! Water is the most versatile lubricant and solvent. (And works wonders in clay soils---providing you can get it to penetrate...)

    • @CountryViewAcres
      @CountryViewAcres  11 месяцев назад +4

      I did pour water on the ground rod/stake. To try to improve voltage on the fence. But I didn't include that part in the video. I didn't have much luck making it better.

    When we cleaned the chicken house in preparation for new birds we cleaned the floor and then sprayed down the walls/cages to clean them. After drying we spayed the area with nicotine sulfate to eliminate insects and allowed the area to rest for about 10 days to break any pest cycles.

    You guys are lucky. Our state of Louisiana has been in a drought. Extremely dry. Hasn't rained in 42 days straight. Our highs during that time has been above 105 on up. Yesterday was 110. I kid you not. I was smart when I purchased land all the way up to 1 of the lakes and bayous that pass through our area. You could always put bucket with several small holes and let gravity do its job to keep ground moist near the rods.

    I do think it is nice to find out that Rebecca can make goof ups too. I do it a lot it seems.
    You are getting a great deal of experience with the different farm animals, and slowly, but surely, setting up the necessary infrastructure. So hang in there. This could be a dumb question, but I have no experience with ducks, and am not sure about the reason you have them.
    I do have an idea for putting those small posts into the ground. I have seen people use an electric drill to make a hole probably a little smaller than the posts. It saves the work of hammering.
    I do hope your weather has improved. We were Very Humid and Hot last week until a storm system came through, and with-it severe weather. I believe there were 7 tornadoes with the storm. One was about 14 miles from us and it rolled 17 semi-trucks and some cars over on I-96, in mid-Michigan. One EF-2 massively damaged a centennial farm about 3 miles from where my family lives and only 13 or so miles from us. And there are trees and branches down all over the place. It happened just as the schools were having the year’s first football games. We didn’t lose power, but it seems like most everyone else in the area did. That is certainly one occasion (as long as there was no damage) that your solar energy would be very useful.
