    While sweetcorn if fun, get a bit of flour/flint corn to grow and grind for cornbread/tortillas/etc (Reids Yellow Dent, Bloody Butcher, and Blue Hopi are the top three I recommend, I think you've worked with Hoss Tools seed and they should have all three of those; high protein and high vitamins). Flour/flint corn stores dry and you can replant your seed. Also great feed for the chickens if you grow more than enough for the family.

    You are teaching others and are so honest and sincere. The common sense some of us learned as children doesn't seem to have been taught to some of the big shots in DC. Being legal American citizens, voters, taxpayers, self sufficient people should count for something. Worrying about our country means our votes count. I get your drift...feel the same way. I wouldn't allow my children to invite 400000 folks to dinner. I know that can't be done. We need a country with borders.

    That area is so big that isnt enough raw manure to hurt anything in that garden if you planted right away. It's going to be a great new garden area. Leaves, sticks & twigs will be really great in there. So happy to see you expanding your operation. I hope you do at least 1 sale day, selling, at the farmers market this year too.

    Oh my! That is a large area to till with a walk behind tiller. After I bought the 3pt tiller for my tractor, I wondered why in the world hadn't I done it years before. What used to take hours to do with a walk behind, I can do with the 3pt in 10-15 minutes. What a time and back saver! I keep my walk behind for doing small areas where one vegetable is done early and I want to plant something for a later crop. I used to think it was good exercise and was young enough that it didn't hurt me. But when I got to that age (it's different for different people), I made the switch and, as I said, wished I had done it years before. Good video! Chicken barn compost is so good after it has aged.

    Bless your son for doing a wonderful job and working so hard. Lots of space for future groceries. Thank you Mr. H for suggesting to do a video on your chicken composting method, I'm really looking forward to watching that. My husband and I have 4 compost piles done at different times, but like Mrs. H mentioned it sure is tough for my husband to find time or even remembering to turn it. Easier is better, work smarter not harder I always say 😊. Over the winter I've done the deep liter method (kinda) by using wood chips and hay but the smell was pretty strong and so I cleared out most and put it in the chicken run. Chickens went to work tilling through it, honestly didn't know where to put it all 😊. We have 25 birds and 4 rabbits which provides so much fertilizer, which I'm grateful for. I'm happy to give this composting over to the Chickens and have them do the work for us. Husband and I just put together another garden bed made of cinder blocks with hardware cloth at the bottom to keep out moles and snakes. I'm 52 with some aliment but try my best and enjoy above ground gardens but have thought about expanding some of the property into ground gardens for growing corn and potatoes. Was hoping you'd talk about where you get your black garden fabric and how much it is and how much you use, this information would be very helpful. Like God's word says, " you want to eat, you work". Much love and blessings to you both, your family and your homestead. Missouri Wrightchk

  • @kaythegardener
    @kaythegardener 11 місяців тому

    On the new ground, would you consider planting your most delicate crops in the chicken salad soil, some rows of potatoes (they can do well in sandy soil), then some strips of nitrogen fixing bacteria legumes (beans, peas, etc), then some small strips of onion family crops (their roots are excellent for breaking down the soil) & then more strips of above ground crops -- melons & squashes. This mix of different types of crops would get a 4 year rotation plan off to a good start!!

    I do semi deep litter in the coop. I have six raised beds outside of the chicken coop in the run. When I pull it out every month I just dump it in a bed through the winter and then I stop about the middle of February and till it in. Love my chickens. We’re getting ready to open up a piece of field for a new garden spot, I wish I had done this and saved it up for that plot.

    Now you all could benefit at this point, from that fertilizer injector, Hoss Tools has. Hooks straight to your main water source. With that big field of corn, heavy feeders, would make your fertilizing so fast so you won’t skip any fertilizing. Would help with all the crops, but those watermelons too😁. I don’t have one yet but my spaces aren’t this large.

    Deep bedding systems are the best I use it with my cows pigs sheep and chickens. I rotate them all cows then pigs to air rate and then the sheep have their own pile in the end I bring to one big pile and the chickens scratch through and give it its final turn and nutrients. Always works out extremely well never a waste never have to use a machine besides to load and unload !!!
