I’ve had a garden and orchard for eight years and each year I’m getting more lizards. I welcome them. There are a lot of wasps and spiders, too. And now, more dragonflies and mantis are showing up, too. All insects eat each other and lizards eat all of the others. They’re working to keep things more in balance. The lizards are surprising when you grab one accidently while harvesting. It keeps you on your toes.
I have used most of the techniques suggested but an important missing component was comfrey and borage. These have deep tap roots and bring up minerals that other plants can't. They also attract bees in great numbers.
To keep aphids and squash bugs away from brassicas and squash plants interplant them with cilantro and radishes. Don't pull them out until after a hard frost. The cilantro and radish plants will look messy and half dead before it gets that late in the season, but that's a happy trade off for me. If you pull out the cilantro and radishes too early the bugs will come back overnight--which I learned the hard way.
I don't think I would truzt that half vinegar and water mix. There is a weed killer recipe that's vinegar and salt w some dishsoap. It's croaks off everything..
I will not trust information from a video about Amish farming when all you do is show farmers in China working in the fields! Why don't you go and interview a real Amish person, it would make a huge difference! You're just using stock images to create weak content.

I love to learn from History. People forget chemicals are modern short cuts that often kill. Thanks for sharing
This was a great video! I love the way the Amish do everything and we can learn a lot from them.

repeating same information over and over and over..... The content is good. Just make it short.
I will use mulching and composting first
Did you realised that you repeat yourself over and over again .

The dish soap and salt are what kills weeds
Don't use too much salt in the garden as it van kill your soil!
