I have a question about your video on canning beef stew. This will be my first time canning. What cut of beef were you using?
Thank you for the information. Now, how do you tell if you have watered an inch? No one ever seems to explain that.
Thank you we have so much rain this
Year
You are very correct..im a plant expert..
I think most of us who grow plants have been asked this question many times there is so many variables I think most people underwater I do tell people if their plants have good soil been fertilized and they're growing slow you're probably underwatering
I liked the shorter video.
great advice! thanks for sharing
What exactly is a no till system? Do you till at the beginning of the season or not ever?
1 inch per week would be…how many gallons per square foot? Thanks!!!
Can y'all provide a link to where to buy a micro system like the one you have?
i feeel watering at night is not the best cause most plants kinda go dormant then awake in themorning sun so watering in the morning would be best in my opinion. love your show im learning alot
You mention in many videos how much you like your current overhead micro-watering system; what system do you use?
A permaculture expert and I never heard the S word
Great topic.. so relevant . Can you provide a link to your watering system?
My foraging brain seeing all the lovely things in his weeding spot LOL
This was very helpful to me- thank you!
Thanks for the video, keep them coming!
If you are using a hose pipe, how do you know how much is an inch?
Where do you get your wood shavings from? Are you concerned about pine wood shavings in the garden space?
Thanks,
Great video, where’s your homestead located? What state?
Is Josh the dad of all the kids? Or multiple dads
