    I enjoyed the video. Thank you. I am always fascinated by the way that people want you to know that what it's called in their gardening area is what it's real name is. I see many comments where people say that "it's called" and then in an authoritarian way let you know how only they know what the "real" name is. And yet, and until now, a rose by any other name will smell as sweet as "it's real name". Again, thank you for the informative video and keep them coming.

    THANK YOU for bringing this concern up. I had a pine tree cut down in my yard, and have been considering turning the logs into a Hugelkultur bed, but I definitely have carpenter ants and don't want to give them a free palace. I'll definitely need to think more about this. I wonder if there's a way to deter the ants from the wood.

    About How many seeds are in a segment or a spoonful. So I’m hoping you see my comment as a suggestion and not a criticism I love the idea of showing fruits and maybe vegetables that most people don’t get to see or experience. Thank you. Problem is when you hold up a spoonful of for instance, seeds, or fruit tilted toward the camera. It gets blurry when you hold it up straight and you can’t see what’s on the spoon. Thanks again.

    When you build a Hugelkkltur bed it needs to be controlled its humidity. We need to cover them with a plastic sheet for at least a year so it can't be too wet or too dry. (Don’t forget to make little holes in the plastic) We don't water them for the first three months, you just water them just enough to cover the soil on the day you build one. Three months after you build a bed, punch holes in a plastic to sow anything you want. Also, degrading logs require a little bit of the air, so it's important to dig each side of the bed to let them easier to breath.(but don't expose them)
