    Yarrow is a great herb for stopping bleeding, historically it was used on battlefields. It’s not good during pregnancy though because it does something with hormones that isn’t good for pregnancy.

      I wetted my roots in gardening/agriculture living in a townhouse, using primarily container gardening. It makes things tricky and simpler at the same time. The good part is the ability to manufacture the specific soil needs and sunlight requirements for each plant as it’s required. It can be a lot of work moving things around and coming up with a system that works, but the quality can be phenomenal. Much of everything overlaps, and the expense is actually pretty similar, when you consider that when people buy a farm, they too are buying dirt (just a bunch at once).

    Good food for thought there Billy. I have struggled here in our semi desert arid region in South Africa. Been a serious drought for approx 8 years but have now been getting more rain than usual so am looking at getting ground covers in. I have Moringa trees that died away because of drought that decimated the plants. Struggled to find Comfrey but have some coming now that i will plant the roots in buckets to overwinter (we in Southern hemisphere but summer around 48°c high and winter -5° c frost low) so have the 2 extremes. The nitrogen fixers are a great idea and maybe the Moringa (tap root) next to the other trees will help fix nitrogen. Then to get the Comfrey in.
    You given me a whole bunch of ideas
    Thanks a stack.
    Blessings
    Keep on keeping on

    I've neglected my mini food zone for the last couple weeks, have to focus on digging a hole to get our irrigation situation fixed (digging by hand). But I started planting some onion bulbs (hopefully cat's & chicken's have left it alone), a potato, tomato plant's, going to plant some more blueberry, 1 died I think. They're interplanted with some juniper (red cedar) tree's. I'm hoping to plant some flower's in there. Nothing had grown in this area, but the tree's a bit of grass. I've got some Russian Sage growing in the area. We have honey locust tree's (why would anyone voluntarily grow them) that I can't stand. They spread via long rope like roots & their bean shaped seed pods. I do love their sweet fragrance when they're in bloom. Which isn't long. And my goat's & cow's love eating them.
    I'm hoping to transplant some lilac suckered starts in the air as the wind rips thru in the winter. So I'm hoping to make this into an edible productive windbreak area soon. 🤷‍♂️
    Keep up all the great thing's you guy's are doing. 🙏🙏😊

    @reginafefifofina Год назад

    3:16 the flaw in that plan is how the root system of the trees will intertwine and then as they grow they won’t have enough space to grow into mature trees… also the branch structure of the trees, so it matters how you trim them. Maybe we should chat with an arborist? Andrew Millison does ponds and trees I think.

    I planted the comfrey I got from Renewed Homestead, weeds aside from tomato plant leaves I stuff them in a bucket, fill with water then let it soak for two weeks and water my garden with it. Stinks like manure pits. My theory is this, cows eat green, utilize all the minerals and protein etc and people use the manure. So all the nutrients cows would use are still in the ferment and goes straight into the ground around my plants. The growth is amazing. I do have a question, cal-max is pretty pricey, what could I use as a replacement. Learned something today as I always do watching your videos.

      @kelly yes, the bocking 4 is also non-invasive in that, it won’t spread by seed or root sprouts. However, once you plant it, it’s there to stay because even tiny pieces of root left in the soil will sprout new plants. That’s how you can multiply it; dig it & cut up roots and plant each piece.

      Bunnies, horses and other herbivores like "weeds" as much as vegetables. Think of dandelions, chicory, clover, grasses etc. As free pet food. You can also toss weeds in the worm bins and convert them to worm castings.
      I also let some weeds stick around so that they will accumulate nutrients instead of letting them to wash downhill.
