And houses make up about 60% of CO2, so the move from 50s-60s houses of 800 to new houses that are now being built to 5000 square feet is a real issue. I live up north, and they are building these silos that are 3 and 4 stories high, really poor for heat conservation.

Oh, and on the subject of saving seed from Arcadia/hybrids/whatever, I highly recommend Carol Deppe's Breed Your Own Vegetable Varieties. She's a traditional plant breeder that was trained as a geneticist, and her book covers just about everything you'd want to know about breeding and saving seeds, including how to dehybridize hybrid varieties.

Tarred bankline lasts me for years, I hand tie nets with 6" holes to use for trellises. I am harvesting peas, favas, and everything else I planted in fall. I need to get some moringa going, to go in the medicinal herb garden. I have hydroponic peppers producing that I just moved out a week ago. Unripe ground cherries can have more toxicities then ripe it exists in some small percentage in all Solanaceae family plants. That is why green bell peppers are more bitter then red. We do raised beds a lot here in mid TN where we have clay and breed rocks very well. It's funny, I started watching Jim with his European sythe video.

I planted French Dwarf Marigolds along with my tomatoes and my bad nematode issues were resolved. It's been two years now and so far I'm doing good.

Hi Jim and Pete. You talked about all the food to be thrown on the compost, my question is why do not you call a food bank and hear if they want to send someone and harvest a little at a time, (maybe next year) the idea that so much food goes to waste when many in the US have nothing, almost hurts ... (just have to tell that I am not from the US but Denmark, so do not quite know what is legal in the US) but could this not be an option, if not other things that are ready and that Jim can not take to Main? Jim your way of growing has been a great inspiration .. when I started as a home gardener, I just grew, the thing got into the ground etc, and the first year went super, but then there were a lot of well-meaning people who told that it was not how you did it, so I changed it, bought fertilizer pills like them, etc., and it just did not go very well, so I decided to look a little at what nature itself does, and what it really was I wanted , because when you as a new gardener "fail" many give up, but in reality they have not failed with just got some advice that might work for the big farmer, but not in the small kitchen garden .. now I have seen your videos ( I do not do quite like you, "other climate" but much of the same, and I LOVE it .. the garden and nature have become my sanctuary, my "quiet space" the place with joys and fun, and that is the meaning .. last year I got a lot of chips on my raspberry bed, the years before it was a boring harvest, last year I raised probably 10 kg a f .. huge beautiful delicious raspberries, even the neighbors were surprised, they gave and gave, and even with minus 15 degrees this winter, they now shoot last year shoots, and it spills up with new .. just because the moisture stays in the ground and the earth gets what they need .. and with something as simple as wood chips ❤️ Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge ❤️🇩🇰🇩🇰🇩🇰🇩🇰🇩🇰

Great timing! I was literally just having a conversation about how most plants can survive on rainfall alone, all other things being ideal (mulch, etc.), but available soil moisture has a huge impact on production. Steve Solomon reports winter squash yields of 20 pounds without any irrigation at all (and we get 3-4 months without rain during our main growing season), but adding just 5 gallons of fertigation per plant per month increases the yield to 50 pounds per plant. So what I'm trying to do is incorporate as many water holding strategies as possible so that I can maximize production without added irrigation.

Mulch, roots and organic matter in the soil. Get the water to infiltrate not run off. Youve probably heard of Gabe Brown, a rancher in North Dakota where they only get 15 inches of rain and use no irrigation. Just cover crops and grazing from his cattle

@@deathlesszero There are way more options and there is way more nuance than that. As evidenced by Jim's experience. He's doing exactly what you call for and he still can't maximize his tumeric yields without added irrigation. I don't irrigate at all, but I've got a chinampa/hugelkultur/terra preta hybrid design that I'm working on, plus experimenting a lot with the works of Bill Zeedyk, Craig Sponholtz, Elaine Ingham, Paul Gautschi, and so many others. Plus using Steve Solomon's recommendations to reduce transpiration. You can hold way more water in the soil by combining these different techniques than by using them in isolation. And the goal, for me, is to maximize production without adding irrigation, not simply to just get things to produce at all.

You can take cuttings of the fig and get a clone quite easily. Just stick about 3 nodes of woody growth and bury them up to the third node in about late August (UK) in some soil or potting compost in a pot, over winter, and in the spring you should get a few plants, if you have done about 10 cuttings in a 10” pot. I get my cuttings from trimming a nice fig tree at a customer’s house and have had great success and have given them as gifts for friends, to try and get them interested in producing something edible from the garden. I guess you could sell them if you wanted.

Here in Oregon they like raised beds because we get so much rain and they help so you can plant earlier.
