Thanks for all your posts! Enjoy them a lot. Because of your experience, I have hauled in 400,000 lbs of mulch and am learning a lot. Farmer in Georgia. John
Love your videos and so glad you are documenting Mr Paul. I hope to meet him in person in 2017 and see his garden for myself. I have never been to the North West. I only went to the west when my husband was in the military and we went to San Diego. It was a dry place and I grew up in the North East and now live in the South East and love the GREEN. Keep up the great work and bug Mr Paul to document his life. He is special and so are you...
I have offered to buy Paul a camera so that he can talk to the people when I am not there but, he doesn't want to anything to happen to it. He would feel bad. Eventually I just gave up trying.
What is great about you is that you love your work enormously. As much as you never loved anything before or anything else. How have I it with horticulure and with nature.
If I start a garden like this with contractors paper and 6 inches of wood chips on top of that, how many inches of wood chips do I need to add each year going forward? Btw I live in zone 9a, with a lot of rain.
Great video. I love the fact that permaculture is just an amazing movement to be a part of. I pray that God sends me some families that want to grow together in a community to swap out our products and produce and provide for each other. Keep up the great work.
I am new to chickens and a garden. My yard has grass but I want to start a garden. DO I till up the grass. Like what is the first thing I need to do to prepare for a garden of eden next year?
Do not till. 1 cover your ground with paper from rolls at home Depot and cardboard. It will kill the grass 2 cover the paper and cardboard with compost or topsoil, 6 inches. You may need to add organic fertilizer to new soil 3 after the garden is producing well then put down 4 inches of woodchips. Let me know if you have any other questions
Thank you for all of your info. god is working thru you. Does the wood chips ever mold? I live in upstate NY would love to come to visit you farm. God bless you and your family.
May be you can ask Paul a question I have been useing woodchips for over 25 years ok I have a diferent Klimat as I am in Germany but when I put fresh wood chips on my garden in the fall they are all gon in spring thats 6/7 inches schould I put 1ft of woodchips on that the grown stays covered also may be you schould have a look ar anonther youtube channel that goes very deep into BTE gardening its Iamorganic he thinks it is down to the Mycrorihze fungus ? what would Paul say about this ?
As you can see, your garden chips decompose faster with the quantity you put in, since your garden is established, it's not a problem to cover it thicker with chips. It will serve as covering, compost tea and insulator therefore it will enable you to plant cold weather veggies at colder times. Now, not sure what you want from Paul regarding the reference of Iamorganic channel but what Paul use is common sence, with God - it's not rocket science although science can explain it. Paul's garden is a living breathing environment full of microorganisms and fungi. It is an ecosystem in itself, same as nature and how nature intend it to be. Nothing new really except that it has been studies and tested and proven as is with science and technology. But forget science, it complicates things. Comm ok n sense is better IMO and having a great time gardening with less work and more bounty is all that matters. You reap what you sow 10 folds! Enjoy!!
The gentleman IAmOrganic on RUclips is excellent & takes a very scientfic approach to woodchip/fall leaves use and soil building with his leave a live root in the ground approach. He is also very much correct in eatablishing mycorrhizea fungi wich in not a function of woodchip fungi, but leaving a live root in the groud.
The creator told me on the front of my next shirt. Nature showed us on the back! Instant connenction to bretheren when you abide in the vine. Lord heal us like wood chips heals and feed the earth!
so what does paul do with his home made compost does he rake back wood chip and apply it then cover back with wood chip or does he not use his compost ? if there is enough nutrients from just wood chip
The septic tank is right in front of the house. The leech field runs down toward the herb garden and chicken coop area. There is a video posting in a couple of hours. The one after that should be the one where Paul mentions the septic and leech field.
does anyone have any advice on slugs and snails? they have been eating my spinach plants more than I can. also have these little midges I believe that's eating my leaves...sucking out all the sap! they have a short life span...but create havoc in my garden
The chips is the covering that protects the roots of the fig trees, leaves do fall and some branches die of but as long as the roots are protected, winter is not an issue because the chips serves as insulators.
I live in Canada and our winters get minus 40 at times. So you are saying if my fig tree is in the ground and I place at least 18 inches of wood chips up to the fig trunk, I do not need to bend the branches or even dig a trench to bend the whole tree in order to winterize it. I think I am saying that correctly. ManuScribe, have you done this? Does not the branches need to be protected as well?
Sorry, I didn't know it gets that cold from where you are. Anyways, May I assume your fig is Potted then? If it is, then it needs to be hardened which I'm sure you are aware. Now for my experience. I do have desert king fig, pomegranate and moringa planted outside. Some branches do die when it gets really cold but as long as the roots are fully covered, my plants come back every spring. Paul has another technique in keeping his grapes go to fruit and it's by placing wood by it. If you have chopped wood then that helps in warming up the plants around it. You can still cover your plants as usual but in my experience, I didn't have to. Try to do an experiment as well, figs are very easy to root from cuttings if your fig tree is mature enough. Just like Paul said "nothing in nature dies in winter "
Paul has that same fig and one is growing just beside his shed. His reason is it is because the shed serves as a heating element as well as a windbreaker and protection. He normally mention it in most of his tours.
Back to Eden gardening uses tree mulch to cover the ground. This soaks up water when it comes, blocks the sun from drying out the soil and fertilizes when it rains. Those things are true everywhere on earth. I live in the desert of Eastern WA and I am doing it here though, I do have to water but, not as much as I would have to without the woodchips. I do not fertilize either. If you live in the desert and are going to run your watering system, do it at night. In fact, anyone in the world, if you water do it at night.
He nailed it when he said, "we are trained not to think for ourselves".
Great Video. Paul is a good guy and The Lord is with him for sure.
"It's a lot of work to be stupid"...😂😂😂
I have to use that one!
Thank you so much for sharing. It's astounding, each time I watch, I learn something new

Keep us up to date on how it is going.

cindy leistenreed mold is good in this context
May be you can ask Paul a question
I have been useing woodchips for over 25 years ok I have a diferent Klimat as I am in Germany but when I put fresh wood chips on my garden in the fall they are all gon in spring thats 6/7 inches schould I put 1ft of woodchips on that the grown stays covered
also may be you schould have a look ar anonther youtube channel that goes very deep into BTE gardening
its Iamorganic he thinks it is down to the Mycrorihze fungus ? what would Paul say about this ?
Richard Sydenham it's the fungus. If you need more chips use more chips
As you can see, your garden chips decompose faster with the quantity you put in, since your garden is established, it's not a problem to cover it thicker with chips.

Hey did Mr Paul do Ok with all the storm Surge?
The creator told me on the front of my next shirt. Nature showed us on the back! Instant connenction to bretheren when you abide in the vine. Lord heal us like wood chips heals and feed the earth!
so what does paul do with his home made compost does he rake back wood chip and apply it then cover back with wood chip or does he not use his compost ? if there is enough nutrients from just wood chip
dav flav he puts it on top thin and let's the rain wash it in
How close is Paul's septic tank to his garden area --soaps and detergents, etc. interfering?
The septic tank is right in front of the house. The leech field runs down toward the herb garden and chicken coop area. There is a video posting in a couple of hours. The one after that should be the one where Paul mentions the septic and leech field.
does anyone have any advice on slugs and snails? they have been eating my spinach plants more than I can.
also have these little midges I believe that's eating my leaves...sucking out all the sap! they have a short life span...but create havoc in my garden
Enrich your soil naturally, the richer your soil, the less slugs and other pests you get.
What does Paul do to protect his fig trees during the winter?
The chips is the covering that protects the roots of the fig trees, leaves do fall and some branches die of but as long as the roots are protected, winter is not an issue because the chips serves as insulators.
I live in Canada and our winters get minus 40 at times. So you are saying if my fig tree is in the ground and I place at least 18 inches of wood chips up to the fig trunk, I do not need to bend the branches or even dig a trench to bend the whole tree in order to winterize it.

Just like Paul said "nothing in nature dies in winter "
My figs are in pots and I put it in my shed all wrapped up. One of them happens to be the very one you have called Desert King.
Paul has that same fig and one is growing just beside his shed. His reason is it is because the shed serves as a heating element as well as a windbreaker and protection. He normally mention it in most of his tours.
Will the eden method work in the desert?
Back to Eden gardening uses tree mulch to cover the ground. This soaks up water when it comes, blocks the sun from drying out the soil and fertilizes when it rains. Those things are true everywhere on earth. I live in the desert of Eastern WA and I am doing it here though, I do have to water but, not as much as I would have to without the woodchips.
