      andy how can you assign a value to your time spent ... the value you assign is for skilled labor and you havent squired the skill just proof of concept by creating one or two examples. reality is you cant charge going rate for sub standard product so make 1000 or 10000 pots then find your average time per pot and assign you value . butter your not going to only do it once salt the same and corn even you grew more than one plant... there is this term economy of scale it may be appropriate but for all your videos my major concerns have been lack of craftsmanship and the valuing of sub apprentice labor as a masters work . thanks for the videos

      Try hating the sand or salt up first then pouring the popcorn in and shaking it up! If you heat it up enough to start with then you might not need to continue roasting it maybe making it safer. You can also weave a loose basket to strain some of the sand out of the popcorn. And lastly, are there particular sands that are better for this than others? Is there some kind of sand that has very little quartz in it and is made mostly of softer stones.

    The domestication of Maize/corn is one of the craziest feats of domestication and selective breeding in human history. Teosinte is barely even the same sort of plant, i've heard botanical geneticists half-jokingly say it's less like domesticating Wolves into Dogs and more like domesticating Wolves into Elephants. Also, bonatanical science was also something that Mexican civilizations like the Aztec were really skilled at and appreciated. Gardens were widespread in palaces, noble homes, royal retreats, and in communal settings in cities for both recreational viewing, to ward off smells (with men and women often carrying sweet smelling flowers with them for this purpose as well) and for medicine and scientific research: Larger Botanical Gardens would often house plants of medicinal properties and were occasionally used to test and experiment with them, and the Aztec had formal taxonomy (binomial taxonomy, at that, like the modern day system we use that Linnaeus came up with!) to categorize plant life with.
    We have some surviving compendiums of Aztec herbal knowledge, such as the Badianus manuscript; as Spanish naturalists and Physicians often sought out Aztec sources on zoology and especially botany & Medicine, with a number of Spanish sources, including Cortes as well as Francisco Hernández de Toledo; the court physician and naturalist for the King of Spain, who traveled to Mexico to document things there) claiming that Aztec medicine was superior to their own. According to modern research, up to 85% of Aztec herbalogical treatments are medically effective, and the Aztec were quite capable for non-herbalogic treatments as well, having recorded treatments for stuff like preventative dentistry, skin grafts, etc
    To loop back to gardens, here's some descriptions of Aztec gardens, the first on the ones located at Huaxtepec, which was a personal retreat for the kings of Tenochtitlan, the Aztec captial; and were the largest gardens, covering a span of around 10 square kilometers and had over 2000 kinds of plants (many of them intentionally brought in from far off climates to see if they would thrive and to stock them locally). Cortes described it as such:
    """[The] Finest, pleasantest, and largest [garden] that ever was seen....For the distance of two shots from a crossbow there were arbors and refreshing gardens and an infinite number of different kinds of fruit trees; many herbs and sweet-scented flowers."""
    Possibly more impressive were the royal gardens used by the rulers of Texcoco, the second most powerful Aztec city: This contained a series of different displays, emulating the flora and biomes of different parts of Mexico, and was watered via a system which sourced water from mountain springs 5 miles away with a giant aqueduct (in some places being 200 feet above ground), brought it to a hill where the water flowed into a network of basins and channels to control the flow speed, at which it traveled across another channel over a large gorge to a second hill, Texcotzingo, where this channel formed a circle around the hill's summit, filling a series of pools fountains, shrines, and then dropping below in artificial waterfalls to water the gardens below. These are described by a descendant of the Texoca royal family, Fernando de Alva Cortés Ixtlilxóchitl (who lived in the early colonial period, when Mesoamerican society and civilization was still somewhat intact) with the following:
    """These parks and gardens were adorned with rich and sumptuously ornamented alcazars (summerhouses) with their fountains, their irrigation channels, their canals, their lakes and their bathing-places and wonderful mazes, where he had had a great variety of flowers planted and trees of all kinds, foreign and brought from distant parts... and the water intended for the fountains, pools and channels for watering the flowers and trees in this park came from its spring: to bring it, it had been necessary to build strong, high, cemented walls of unbelievable size, going from one mountain to the other with an aqueduct on top which came out at the highest part of the park.
    The water gathered first in a reservoir beautified with historical bas-reliefs, and from there it flowed via two main canals (to north and south), running through the gardens and filling basins, where sculptured stelae were reflected in the surface. Coming out of one of these basins, the water ‘leapt and dashed itself to pieces on the rocks, falling into a garden planted with all the scented flowers of the Hot Lands, and in this garden it seemed to rain, so very violently was the water shattered upon these rocks. Beyond this garden there were the bathing-places, cut in the living rock... The whole of the rest of this park was planted, as I have said, with all kinds of trees and scented flowers, and there were all kinds of birds apart from those that the king had brought from various parts in cages: all these birds sang harmoniously and to such degree that one could not hear oneself speak..."""
    If you are interested in more (particularly since I sort of skimmed over medicine here, and didn't mention their absolutely insane sanitation and public health practices either (Tenochtitlan had every street and building washed daily and a fleet of civil servents to manage trash and waste!)), there's a collection of sources here:

    There is a trick they used, to keep raccoons from eating your corn in colonial times (and possibly before), and it still works today. Plant pumpkins around the parameter and use the vines to make a fence. Raccoons have very sensitive feet and the vines are prickly enough to deter then from eating your corn.

    Protip from a couple years working for a movie theater. Obtain butter salt seasoning and palm oil, and corn. Heat oil, add corn and butter salt at the same time. The butter salt gives the flavor, the palm oil gives it the crunchy texture because it's solid at room temperature. Using more of both than needed is better until it's too salty. The stuff in the pumps is not butter, it's partially hydrogenated soybean oil, if you really want the best buttery movie theater popcorn, if it's slow ask them to pop you a batch with extra salt and oil, they'll know what you want because they probably make it for themselves when no one is looking.
