I was fishing in Angeles Crest Forest (Los Angeles County) at about 2000ft back around 1995 on May 2. It was snowing. I caught a 16-inch trout and it's my grandmother's B-Day. That is how I remember the exact date. Don't let the OFFICIAL FIRST DAY of SPRING in California fool you!
100% agree. I'm in Northern Illinois and my backyard garden is facing the southeast. In the hot summer months it is nice to get a break from the sun in the late afternoon. Vegetables are still getting 8 hours of full sun a day. The only vegetables that are affected by shorter sun hours are onions. They are smaller but that's fine with me.
Yes i agree SE is great especially for structure orientation. But... One has to be careful of of tree placement fruit and the like that they dont come out of dormicey to early then hit freeze period. Gardens not a big deal but food forests and orchards may want a orientation that keep ths trees dormant until the risk of heavy frost and freezing has past.
Keep in mind that heat is always temporary, it escapes everynight as the world turns, Its only hot on the Sunny side of the Universe, Wind direction changes every 48 hours in general and its called the Coriolis affect when cold and hot air mixes to create weather patterns.
yes Curtis that's the aspect my homestead will have, I'm getting a homestead on some land and I'm going to grow food 😊oh and with all due respect, I think the word is "reprieve " my brother, peace ✌️
I think that might be part of the problem where I live in Oregon ... Winter's are not great... Thanks for sharing this information... much to think about!
your weather also matters where im at if its going to be cloudy and then break its always cloudy in the morning sunny in the evening during the shoulder seasons so southwest benefits me better
I'm curious. How do you facilitate your relationship with nature in your immediate context now that you've created a border within which you heavily manage the resources. It becomes an atrtacctive space to the species that were not necessarily interested in extending their stay beyond passing through throughout previous seasons. For instance, I have a groundhog that wasn't committed to my space until I made it appealing,. I love him now, but not so much several years ago, and the 'get along' ride was great.
My family and I spend countless hours in the forest on our property, and the most cleared areas are within the fence, so we maintain a great relationship with nature. The fence only helps by keeping the bears waking up, out.
A better word than "aspect' which means nothing other than something about an item has something to do with that word in some way. Using the word "orientation" when talking about a property makes it much more descriptive of what you are talking about. "A property has a southeastern orientation." says more than "A property has a southeastern aspect"
Strange, but I still get notifications about your videos. Strange, because so many high value youtube channel are struggling. The _morning_ one has only 4.4k views on it. It's shame. Shame on youtube. Few of your _philosophycal_ videos on *current things* are saved on my playlist. Valuable lessons, but many people has no patience or interest to think... I mean *listen*
@@offgridcurtisstone awesome- looked like there were some also on one of the buildings you have there but I suppose that’s a greenhouse. Best to you on the planting season!
@@offgridcurtisstone I was told to (and regret not doing it) film before and after. My neighbors can't believe I put that much effort into making it look like a park
@@offgridcurtisstone oh and yeah, a ton of work, but the end result is night and day. You can see the property line of my land and I don't even have a fence. Most people are just to lazy up here to put in the work.

Wow, look at that beautiful local sun!! So amazing it’s less than 200 miles away.
When I saw the moon out during the day yesterday and how the light on it made no sense with where the sun was, I certainly felt that.
@@offgridcurtisstone Will you be able to see some the eclipse from your homestead? Btw, thank you for being such an inspiration!
I won't be from here, but I will from Texas when I'm there.
are you flying into San Antonio? I'm about to book my ticket lol @@offgridcurtisstone
@@AlexLandry Yes sir.

Curious. please compare the energy (not power) of each solar panel orientation?

Do you ever have to worry about or have issues with EMF from your solar panels?
No, because they are hundreds of feet from our home and the inverters are outside of the home in the garage as well.
@@offgridcurtisstone awesome- looked like there were some also on one of the buildings you have there but I suppose that’s a greenhouse. Best to you on the planting season!
I cleared 7 acres or every branch and dead tree.
Best decision to do on your land
So much work hey?

Trudope is sending people to measure Nitrogen on farms to prevent food production?
Not in reality, that's just the news.
