  • Easy and inexpensive to set up. This is the easiest gardening system ever. A hybrid of my straw bale and raised bed systems. This allows you to plant and walk away until harvest with no weeding and almost no watering.
    For instructions on how to condition the hay check out my previous video: • Straw Bale Gardening -...

    Yeah, I love Paul Gautschi (the Back to Eden guy). He's a little crazy but also very kind and generous. And the mulching thing really does work, it's crazy how drought resistant your plants become. If you haven't actually seen the Back to Eden film, it's free on UA-cam, and is just a really good movie even if you don't want to adopt his ideas.

    At first I ought that this was a scambait channel (yes because the pretty lady)..oh boy i was wrong about that, she's simply a smart person, who happens to be awesome looking too, a rare combo. She's capturing the essence of the problems so it's really easy to understand even if I'm not familiar with the gardening stuff. BTW some of the work could be automated easily with low cost electronic to make the life easier, and analyzing the sensor data is fun too

    Girl, you are a plumb genius! I love this idea. I started following your channel a few years ago for doing a straw bale garden. That worked out really well, but that fall my husband took the broken down bales and rototilled them into the soil. So, the following season, I did a conventional garden but had all the major weeding problems which I hate. So, this idea is awesome. You just put the cinder blocks around the decomposing bales and then the following season you can add some fresh straw on top, condition it and plant in it... do I have that right? I am so going to do this. I am utterly exhausted from weeding all the time and it makes me not even want to grow a garden! This idea is genius!

    Great system. I've been watching alot videos for something that would work for me. I purchased hay bales. But I did that for a Ruth Stout type method. Your greenhouse hay bale garden was beautiful. I think this method might just do it. It's the best of both types .take care. Great gardening.

    Very cool I do somtin similar I plant in my own dirt mix then I brake apart square bales of hay and put them around my plants in till there is no dirt showing and it works good for me especially being in the canada. Then depending on the look of my dirt the next season I will burn or till the hay right in the dirt.

    Good video but I have to disagree with pressure over water bath. With all ingredients cooked to a boil and simmered for a while then canned and water bathed for (30 minutes for my altitude) it’s shelf stable for well over a year. That said I have a pressure cooker and use it for canning meat. I’m so glad I watched this video, I’ve worked my tail off preparing tomatoes the traditional way. Thanks!

    Not saying that you're copying anyone, cuz I've been doing this 20ish years, and I just found out there was a name for it this past spring. Basically that's the Ruth Stout method.

  • @wi54725
    @wi54725 4 роки тому

    This is in theory an incredibly easy method. There is one major liability to this method. If you are a bit klutzy, you will no doubt bang body parts against the cinder blocks and either end up with bruises or abrasions or both.
    We have done raised bed Square Foot Gardening with improved amendments like rock dust, using bricks that were left over from a home addition. The bricks are more forgiving when your legs and knee hit them; they move, and you simply replace them.

  • @keziamedina7782

    Do you condition the hay while it’s still in the bale, then spread in your beds or do you condition while it’s on your bed? And how thick do you put the straw on? I have been wanting to try the Back To Eden method but have no way to get the amount of wood chips needed for the size of garden I’m wanting to do. Thanks!

  • @0623kaboom
    @0623kaboom 5 років тому

    a nice way to do it ... just to play devils advocate ... the biggest problem with that method is you reduce the work activity and essentially a useful way to get a work out and burn off that last meal .... so to keep fit once you dont have the grass pulling part you need to find another way to get that exercise in perhaps do more foraging and walk it ... make a long garden row so you have to walk up and down the line to get the exercise .... make it multi level even .... if that was possible then it would be the perfect system .... good cheap food and free exercise with no gym subscription and all the food would taste so much better as you will know you made it happen with your own hands and the body they are attached too ....religiously worshiping the temple of the body putting it in the best shape possible to honour the one.

    Paul has saved me. I have garden. But it's a crippled garden & now I have full time garden job. Zuchinni for example almost not do able.
    Paul's garden isn't easy yoke light burden. Paul is an arborist he has all the peices... but can't quite connect the dots somehow. Good God he has 16 inches of chips originally placed under fruit trees. Seriously? That represents preposterous amountsof absolutely gargantuan fuel soaked huffing machinery tonnage of ruthless mega ear splitting horsepower. Ever split wood? Ever make your own wood chips with an axe?
    I don't subscribe2 splitting wood. Bcuz I believe in easy yoke light burden. I prefer branches4 fire. I get Paul's attitude.
    Paul has exploited a niche. That is possible but very difficult without anywhere near the ease as he enjoys in OREGON. As an arborist
    Oregon is cool. With ocean breezes, short days, which incidentaly houses VERY FEW INSECT PESTS.
    Soil here in Oklahoma is SILT CLAY. Which after worms aerate it, becomes WATERPROOF. Bible say seedmust land on GOOD SOIL. Which doesn't exist everywhere. Fortunately, Paul's method softens those boundaries.
    I live just above Mexico in latitude. There is no way in this ferocious heat &no marine layer moisture that my soil can be kept wet. There are no woodchippers south Oklahoma. I tried gathering decayed wood chips. Now I only collect leaves. It's do able full time, if u are retired. Or there are 2 or more of u. Teamwork = VERY do able.
    Worms eat leaves fast as I can replace. My water bill is now struggling. I can't keep pace. Had I lived in north Missouri, I bet my soil might stay wetter. But here, I get much more rain then Missouri, but our PARTICULAR soil dries extremely fast. Plants almost buried, still too dry.
    I do not think my leaves work as good as woodchipper mulch too much air. BY THE WAY. I live in a RAIN FOREST technically. Thus I enjoy rain, max natural mulch but STILL can't keep up with my Eden garden. But I am sold on it cuz its my only hope.
    I did Back to Eden garden looong b4 Paul did. When I lived near him in LA. He spent his whole life arriving at his nitch where I nailed it off the 1st bat my 1st complete garden.
    LA enjoyed COOL WET MARINE LAYER. which kept soil moist, like Oregon. (cool nights)
    TEMPERATURE by itself dries the devil out of soil. My ground temp days averages 140 f 3 months. Little rain summer. If I get torrential rain, my plants still begin wilting in days.
    "you must work in the sweat of your face. "
    Life now is a punishment. The sun itself is blasting earth angrily now 4 a reason, burning 1/3 my plants& even scorching my oak trees. God is angry.
    God is not here to climax with garden movement, but Armageddon.
    The promised land was OVER THERE. Where the good, even PREMIUM CONDITIONS were.
    Paul has a much lower IQ then & I &suffers with exaggeration but has been gardening far longer& has made a garden possible where b4 I would never had made it near as quickly.
    With his endless tear soaked emotion &God's miracles on the brain he also fails 2ever acknowledge simplest of wood chip reality. Of say, fulvic &humic acids which hydrate cells& are used on oil outrigger drill bits 2loosen soil. Ok. I get it. ...creation is a miracle but get your head on straight.
    In the garden, the woman was thoroughly deceived. By shape of the eyeball. Eve mated with Satan literally. People meanwhile, especially TODAY, are thoroughly deceived on You Tube they aren't interested in subbing2 reality they subscribing to emotion. Which is easily manipulated if only u have just the right costume& ofcourse carry a cane.
    Paul has extremely poor Bible diction. I work with elite angelic forces and have spoken with persons who were THERE in the garden Eden including Lucifer. Adams wife was cloned memory intact. We have interviewed her. 2 years ago. Plus Bible teaches Satan was a cherub. No. Satan wrote that in Bible. He was the lords elder brother of 2 million years Satan was Yahuahs 1st original direct son.
    Paul constantly elaborates on ASPECTS OF bible which was half written by Satan. He has apostle Paul on the brain. Apostle Paul was Satan's. There was no 13th disciple lol. Like Bible Paul, garden Paul is both world-leading and vastly erroneous all at once. I've learned from him, but just keep scratching my head.
