@@ryanstewart1010 thanks ryan i will upload more soon
Suggestion; Use your land clearing machine to pullup all weeds overgrowth etc Then use it all to make a walled planter at one side of the properties that could also aid privacy & enable home owners to plant fruit veggies roses herbs etc
👍👍🌿🌿🌹🌹💞💞🙏🙏😄😄
Good idea!
This was a green energy mill and should be restored to it's former glory and should fall under a historical operator act that exempts the mill from having to meet modern safety regulations, just as vehicles manufactured pre seat belt regulations should be exempt from being updated with modern safety restraints.
Im going to restore it. And this mill is not under the protection of the listings which was good for me
Please don't use any chemical pesticides Weed killers 🙏🙏🙏
Im with you on that, a bit of a botanist myself, but i know the weeds are outta control and is not safe for working environments
Just subbed
You need to get a camera gimbal thing as it’s very jiggly. Fascinating stuff though 👌
lol yes we bought one ;_) watch out for later episodes
Wish I could own one & add my own magic 👍👍🌿🌿💞💞🌹🌹
Hi, @jacqueline359 where is you live? And why is it you cant own and add your own magic? I am happy to teach you how to own this type of enterprise?
Would it not be possible to get the water running and utilise it for hydro power?
Did you watch the video? There is no water supply.
Sadly no the water supply was removed by the farmer in the field years ago and removed the water rush
BigAl restore restore restore. Lot more people will follow your vlog. The audience is fond of restoration. I love your knowledge of the materials and property.

@@billyinwaves i will add more up soon
Get some CCTV !
@@christianwithers7335 thanks christian thats a good point and reminding me to resolve that
interesting
@@amiecastle-d7u thanks
That's a really interesting property, might be good to search Google for blueprints of these old Mills, show viewers what they used to look like. To kill off that vegetation/weeds you need Roundup Provantage, just use protection when spraying as its dangerous stuff.
@@Cyeber thanks cyeber will get that sorted
Roundup becomes soil resident and is a scourge on our society. Why support the giant chemical companies? Remove the weeds and dirt manually and / or with machinery. Please. Interesting project!
Might be an idea to get the pest ivy and knotweed (??) sprayed before winter.
@@si_vis_amari_ama is there a recommendation on the chemical?
Usually glyphosate ("Roundup") is safest and effective, but in your climate there may be specific times or techniques used of which I am unaware in our milder climate (AUS). There are different glyphosate mix strengths to be used for different weeds. Im not even sure if it is knotweed, I have never seen it in real life. I know Ivy can be a bugger to kill though. Perhaps your local Council could help with advice, it might save you a lot of bother and wasted chemical.. Always use PPE and especially a mask when spraying.
