I noticed you checked your ph in soil at 8.5 is that normal or is your meter off. I do the same and PH in soil is at 8 but then the run off is at 6.1 I think our meters are off lol. Optimal pH in soil is 5.8 to 6.5 Currently finishing off a master kush in California 2 more weeks. Been growing her organically with Down TO Earth.

[@Lovingbeingbackinthailand]

You must be one hell of a happy chap, I left my son in Thailand many years ago and this year I plan to make Thailand my new home. Watching your vlogs just shows me what I have been missing out on all this time and I have to say I cry almost every time. Leaving Maxwell with his mum broke my heart and I have never been the same since. I wish I was more like you and never left him, I could not afford to stay and not long after I got back to the UK I had a stroke and wasnt able to work and send money back. Seeing your life fills my thoughts of what could have been but I didnt have it in me back then to do anything for him. I am coming back this June and hope to build some bridges and make up for lost time.

[@oywatters9415]

Firstly, hope the grazing on Otis's face heeling well, boys will be boys 🥰 Ryan looks content and so does Damo. Love seeing animals in the beautiful garden.😊🙏

Nothing like sitting in your yard clipping your buds. Your harvest is fruitful. I don’t smoke it but the pungent smell of the fresh bud is lovely. Brings back memories of my youth on Maui, Hawai’i. Aloha from Nebraska.🌺🤙🏼💕

I really enjoyed this one! It's incredible to see how quickly things seem to grow; those strawberries looked fantastic! Otis is quite the good ranger, catching 3 mice/rats in two days! Also, I love your choice of dinnertime music Ryan! Thanks for sharing this with us 🥰

[@jeanavo3865]

If I can just snap my fingers and physically be in a place where you are, I would be even happier. I live in a city in US, this is why I enjoy watching you guys and exactly where you are at; this is beautiful and wonderful place.

Lots of rats and snakes in England too, maybe their not rodents or reptiles but the got the other kind! I prefer the Thai varieties, and that kale… aroy jing jing …..cheers and good luck out there, Aloha from Yosothon/Hawaii

Hi Ryan and family. Really enjoy all your content and information. I have just moved from Bangkok after 9 years there and have moved to my wife's house in the country near chumpuang. I would like to ask you if you can remember your video you did on growing mushrooms as I would like to try and do . Many thanks

[@vannachusuei8313]

I like this kind of family I live in NY.but around my house I have 4 apples tree , pume and cherry and the lest of small one summer plants we can grow only one season only . And we can keep for winter time also. Right now spring come along quick tulips, daffodils and all kinds in the grass start have a colours. The birds dancing seem to me they have a good time and enjoy the new day.

[@margiemasih1073]

I never did use any chemicals on a garden either..if we planted cabbage I used wood ashes to sprinkle on the plants..

[@PeeJay3714]

Loved the kale , we've been gardeners here in northeast US . We had issues with pests too as do all vegetable growers. I found food grade diatomaceous earth is great for around the plants base for crawling insects and dusting leaves for flying insects. Its washed off when harvested with some water and us completely safe for humans and pets. Its actually great for ridding parasites from the body. Good luck with the harvesting of veggies.

[@janetneo4272]

Otis is adorable n cute too.

[@prubroughton1864]

I hope you use pond water on garden excellent fertiliser

You might be surprised how much wild honey combs are about.My wifey regularly comes home with them,They seem to nest in those eucalyptus trees that they all have growing between the rice fields.Your missus might know

I stumbled across you Vlogs. I am pretty sure I have met you a couple of times at Coffee Club Legian?

[@graemeaylward8313]

Hello Damo, Ryan and Otis. Although I only caught a glimpse of your green snake, it looked like a golden tree snake to me. They are great for keeping the small rodent population down. I once caught a mouse in the same sort of trap as yours, decided to release it after breakfast but when I went back there was a golden tree snake trapped in the cage and no mouse! It was clear to see that the snake hade devoured the mouse and then was too fat to get out of the small holes! I released it and it went about it's merry way quickly. Things all looking good on the small holding, great idea with the ladybirds. What has Otis done to his face? Looks like it is healing well. God bless you all as always 😀❤🙏

[@TheLungNuad]

In this season is going to Summer season all animals all around you came to visitting your house any time.if you trap the mise in the house the snake came up for their food.So be ware.anw.the little piggy so adorable n your canabis tree so nice.

[@WushuTaz]

Looks like you've got everything dialed in with your grow. Great job guys! If you don't mind me asking, how many gallons are the fabric pots for the cannabis plants? I'll be doing my first outdoor grow here soon and that seems about the size of plant I'm looking to grow. I typically did only 5 gallon pots indoor due to space restrictions.

[@ShoelessNomadThailand]

Love the Cana bush. Good luck to you.

[@JohnnyinAsia]

Great video, thanks Ryan. Have you not thought about getting you're own Bee's to make Bee juice :)

Was just thinking this the other day! But damo isn’t keen 🤣

We live on a 10 Rai organic farm in Chanthaburi. Open kitchen area like yours. Getting 2 Mekong bobtail cats has eliminated the birds and rodents. These guys were made for this.

I know you're trying to keep it all organic..I couldn't make out where the ladybird/bugs came from.I heard Lazada...You said the Thai ones are vegetarian ...I'm just wondering is it a good idea to introduce foreign species to the environment... Thinking cane toads in Australia.. here....

[@herrzegers]

naam seed oil is a good organic hebicide or rosemarry oil

[@theadventuresofbrockinthai4325]

Oh I do envy you living off the land, I can hardly wait to go North and start working the soil. It will all be ORGANIC too and I like the idea of using good bugs to keep the bad bugs away. From what I am hearing from my friends in America we may be in for some very bad times so growing your own food is probably a good idea. I have one friend that took out all the grass in his back yard and growing nothing but vegetables. He goes out in the morning and waters everything before he goes to work and when he gets home he will go out and pick vegetables for dinner and the next day. I liked the shot of you setting on a bucket snipping the leaves off the pot plant. I got mine growing in the back patio. I am thinking about buying some pot seeds out of California. I know you don't go for the THC but I do. The higher the percentage the better. I don't think those things are rat's I think they look more like mice. I like the simplicity of your trap, you don't kill them but let them out where there is plenty of food for them. I like that. Sakon Nakhon is the area I'm moving to so I'll be somewhere up your way. I would like to come visit you and your lovely family once I get my first bungalow built so I have a place to live.

If you soak that weed in some high test drinking alcohol, then strain it , you wind up with a tincture full of cannibanoids , you can use it like that in your smoothies, if you evaporate the alcohol you wind up with Rick Simpsons oil , but I find it messy and hard to handle , so I use it in tincture form , a couple of teaspoons of alcohol in your smoothies ain’t gonna kill ya , LOL

There is a reason that big pharma has demonized THC , and I think that reason is because it can replace chemotherapy, and they would lose a lot of money, and THC is safer then Cemo drugs

Have you tried Pyrethrins from Chysanthemum flowers as a pesticide? I am concerned about the safety issues as far as toxicity. I know it is natural but also toxic. Maybe there is a short half life that makes it a reasonable solution?

At last. I knew you 'd catch the rodent. Catching 2 at one time is a first for me. Rats are bigger than mice. When/where there's one, then there's more. They live in groups. I catch them once in a while here, using the same type trap. Very efficient. 🐭🐁🐀
