      It was the practice of native americans, in the three sisters, that started it. Even in Europe people would grow grapes and other climbing plants up trees as a natural trellis. People had less back then, but it only meant they had to be more resourceful than we are.

    Right on about sunflowers attracting bees! They are a bee magnet. I recommend planting sunflowers in any garden, even if you don't eat the seeds. I don't eat the seeds. I Ieave them for the beautiful goldfinches. A sunflower's flowers aren't deep. So it'll attract the smaller native pollinators, like sweat bees and leafcutter bees. If possible, put a bee house near the sunflowers. You'll get leafcutter bees making nests.

    Hey Shawn. I don't know if you saw my previous comment on your mouse trap video about putting a disclaimer in the beginning of your trap videos, but if you do that it should really help with your censorship issues. There is tons of videos on UA-cam with violent content that don't get messed with just because of their viewer discretion disclaimer at the beginning of the videos. Look into it

    • @ShawnWoodsMousetrapMonday
      @ShawnWoodsMousetrapMonday  7 років тому +22

      It doesn't help at all. Actually all the videos where I included a disclaimer were the first to be censored.

    • @nicholaicrawson3305
      @nicholaicrawson3305 7 років тому +7

      Shawn Woods it's sad to see that you are getting hate for putting informational videos on UA-cam why don't people pick on PewDiePie he says about 30 swears every video. or GTA videos that have stripers. But no they don't need a disclaimer. I appreciate what you're doing. you've even inspired me to start a garden! it only consists of Molokai purple potatoes but it's a start.

    • @nicholaicrawson3305
      @nicholaicrawson3305 7 років тому

      heck even some kids watch them thinking it's fine. Because there's no disclaimer telling them that there is going to be that mature content

      I have chatted with some providers of hunting videos. They told me that yes, they don't get censored with a disclaimer, but they don't get to participate in the content provider finance program. Personally I think that sucks.. if the content is a legal non criminal activity it should not be discriminated against by youtube.

    Cool video. I'm growing those Russian mammoth sunflowers and their about to flower!
    I'm doing a three sisters garden this year for the first time. Do you have any info on the layout for planting a three sisters garden. I wasn't sure if I should space out the sisters in a certain way so I just planted the corn first and when that started to sprout I planted the beans between them, and after a week I planted the squash intermixed between those. I think I planted them too far apart. The beans were not climbing the corn since they were too far spaced so I just put a trellace in there and now their climbing that.
    Love your garden and that you are growing native foods. That's been my goal. I would love to see a video tour of your garden.
