Tips for Kevin: Some of the additional fruit trees etc. you should plant: Pakistan Mulberry Apple Acerola Grapes Peach Pineapple Pomegranate Persimons Avocados Star fruit /Carombola Bananas Plantains Ground provisions: Edoes Dasheen Yams Cassava Don't forget.... Bay laurel Just watched your survival for a month video. And get some chickens too...might be a great idea... maybe two goats lol.. fresh goat's milk very nutritious. Note: There is a new grafted blackberry that grows without thorns and like a small tree, I can't remember the name but maybe you can research it.

The random tomato in your grow bag validates me now. I have a bunch of grow bags and I did plant some tomatoes but I have more tomatoes growing in the grow bags that I didn't plant than those that I do and have no idea where they came from.

The lemon tree that came with the house was probably a multi fruit tree where they spliced in different branches with lemons, limes, grapefruit, oranges, etc. They were very popular in the 1980’s. You could grow many different varieties of citrus, all on one tree.

As much as I want you to always succeed, I have to admit that my favorite part of this video was seeing a few things that didn't work! I try and try and try and try and keep failing in the garden. It's been very discouraging. It was so nice to see that even an absolute pro has things that don't work all the time. It was just the thing I needed to hear to feel re-invigorated to keep trying. It's not just that I suck at this; everyone has things that don't work out. Thank you!!!!!

This is very inspiring to me. 😁 I have a similar yard (huge and empty), and I've had a hard time figuring out what to do with all the space. I did plant an in-ground garden, but it wasn't worth the work (looking back now). Our soil is terrible - super hard and full of rocks and boulders. I'm going to follow a little of what you've done and work with containers from now on. 😁

[@1Lightdancer]

You can do a lot in containers, and so many options! Peter Chan wrote one of the early books on raised bed gardening, Better Vegetables the Chinese Way - love that book! He and his wife lived in the West hills of Portland Oregon, with lots of rocks - which they used for paths! They did dig as preparing the beds - I like Charles Downing no dig method - start bed at a time - perhaps take our visible rocks, then lay down cardboard and cover with compost!

[@captainreadingabook]

@@1Lightdancer I will check out that book, thanks for the suggestion! 😁

[@SunnySensei]

Perennial plants, shrubs and trees are nice because they seem to do well even if the soil isn't perfect. Some trees/bushes are also okay to put in large pots too. 😀

[@ng8899]

Omg Kevin don’t remove the fruit trees! That’s be so sad! 😭

[@jessicamiller7539]

It's all looking fantastic, Kevin. Regarding the in-ground worm bins, we have been experimenting with putting smaller ones in all of our raised beds. They are made out of leftover pvc piping with some holes drilled in the sides, and some old plastic plant pots buried so the lip sits just below the soil level. Place a terracotta saucer upside down over the top and a full terracotta pot on top with some pretty succulents or a drought tolerant pollinator. This keeps the system sealed and stops rodents getting in. Then we've bought in compost worms to add. I'm keen to try one of these larger in-ground systems like you have also. We've got into the habit of composting most of our cardboard and paper waste. A friend even feeds old clothes to her in-ground worm bin. I'm keen to get to the same level of worm farming as she is! Landfill waste generates so many environmental impacts, the more we can process our own organic wastes at home, the better.

[@D.A.Hanks14]

Two things for your moth/worm problem if I may. Plant basil next to or under, anything that is attacked by moths and or worms. I used to think it was through the air, but this year, I had some tomatoes in pots as well, and the one I didn't have a basil plant in got tobacco hornworms, although luckily, a couple birds eradicated them in a few hours. So apparently, whatever is in basil is absorbed through the roots. I'd give that a try next year, and also, put some birdhouses and feeders out there to attract the enemy of all worms and caterpillars directly among your plants. Oh, and your new place is looking good, BTW.

[@ezekieladamas9402]

Wow. This is a lot of work done in a year. Thank you Kevin for the update. I am truly inspired. I've got lots to learn but i hope to achieve what you're doing at the epic homestead. All the best and looking forward to your next video!

[@cathycrowder2226]

I have found that a mesh covering works well for keeping the cabbage worms off. One year I found a mosquito tent used for camping and I set that up over all my brassicas and no worms! I also use mesh cloth laundry sacks(available at WalMart) to cover individual plants. I use a tomato wire cage( the cheap ones that we don't use for tomatoes) as a frame and then put the mesh bag over the frame and secure with the drawstring to keep bugs out. Works pretty good, certainly cuts down on the worms, but you still have to check.

I found dwarf corn at Baker Creek, Botanical Interests and at my local hardware store. Blue Jade is bred for containers, it’s a fresh and dried variety (not very sweet as it’s an older style but delicious if eaten a few minutes after picking or dried as flour), Strawberry popcorn does great in containers as does Early Sunglow sweet corn. Since corn needs to be planted in groups or blocks I would use either a very large grow bag (one of the 50 gallon or so that looks like a giant raised bed) or a kids plastic paddling pool with holes drilled in the bottom for drainage.

I really hooe he uses biodegradable soaps/detergent! This wouldn't even be legal where I live unless you have a small water cleaning facility. It might not affect the plants right away but in the long run it will kill all the microbes in the soil. Even biodegradable soaps and detergents aren't really made to be used for watering the same spot of soil over and over :/ They are made to protect microbes in the water bodies in which cleaning facilities lead their cleaned water (because many compounds in soap and other cleaning products can't be filtered out)

Kevin my fig tree is growing very large but not producing any fruit, how can I help the tree to produce

[@ariel9776]

I'm obviously not Kevin but i wanna help! How old is your fig tree? If it is mature enough to produce fruit, it sounds like it could be getting too much nitrogen(plenty of leaf/branch growth and no fruit) if you think it's too much nitrogen you could start using a fertilizer lower in nitrogen or add some phosphorous to the soil to even out the nitrogen levels. Hope this helps!

[@anonemouse4308]

Figs tend to have a growing phase followed by a fruiting phase, with minimal or no fruit in the growing phase. This is usually determined by root space. A constrained root system due to being in a pot or hard soil will lead to early fruiting. Deep, fertile soil will lead to several years of growth with no fruit, until the plant is mature.

[@anonemouse4308]

If your fig plant is growing rapidly, don't expect to see fruit until it reaches maturity. Limiting the root system by creating an underground barrier of rocks or bricks can speed up fruiting. As can transplanting to a container.

[@taniac1860]

Just a wee tip with your citrus hedge, as a general rule of thumb try to keep as much distance between your lemon trees and other citrus tree. Lemons planted next to other citrus will cross pollinate and cause other citrus to set more pips in the fruit. If you don’t mind the extra pips, it’s not a problem.

[@djmcgranary714]

In any space small or large plant them intermixed so all will benefit. So the pollinators come for one plant, and feed on All.
