Watching this in 2023, more relevant than ever....love your work, and as for the energy and passion from the boogymeister.....Words fail me....BIG Love
I just love these guys, especially how genuine they are when they argue, agree, disagree, I just like them and trust them and learning a lot from their videos, and I AGREE WITH THEM ABOUT EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THUMS UP!!!!!!!!!!!
I love the John and Josh combo! Josh! I enjoy hearing what you have to say no matter what I personally believe! Personally, I am confident enough in my political opinion to not feel so offended when someone says something that I do or don't agree with. Thank you for sharing your position and for challenging my thoughts on some things. Keep on growin'!
Hell yeah LaReina! Well said......That's what I'm talking about, differences make the world go 'round and we can all learn from those with alternative politics, too.
I know this is a small shout out but i bought a warm bin last year and just read "worms eat my garbage"!! its helped my garden so much. so super excited to hear it plugged in the video!!!
John, please read. Everything both of you said about gardening and larger issues is on point and needs to be heard. I personally think this is one of your best episodes ever. I love it when I hear people say say "do it for free" even though they have product to sell. I always thought Josh pushed his products too much, but he redeemed himself entirely in this episode. Thanks, and keep being the change! You and Jake Mace (and OneYardRevolution and Plant Abundance) have inspired me more than I can say, and because of you guys I (and a couple neighbors) have started a neighborhood gardening collective. I really believe it is one very important part of the path to a good future. Keep it up and please never sell out because we all need you guys so much. Keep on growin!
Crazy to rewatch this episode years later during the corona pandemic. Seems josh was correct in referring to John as a light in so much darkness. Love these guys. Together the energy is great!
I have started my own small farm this year. I hope to get certified organic in the coming years. I have a few compost bins going. One just wood chips all made from dead fall or pruned trees from my property, one of leafs, one of a mix and one for the wood chips from my chickens. I have a worm bin and I have made a mineral mix of rock dusts and kelp meal ext. my practices are a mix of all the information from you and others like you on UA-cam. So thank you! 🤙🏻
These two gentleman are dishing out a lifetime of invaluable advice..If they go off topic ignore it and learn to appreciate these amazing videos that happen to be free..
I tuned in to hear gardening stuff, it's sunday. chose not to watch sunday news shows . HOWEVER !! I FEEL this RANT !! AND I fully believe the plants FEEL our love and attention. MOTHER EARTH !! Happy Mother's Day !!
You guys make a great team keep it up! Josh I 100% agree, you're spot on, thanks for speaking your mind and heart. My personal belief is that when we begin to learn to grow veggies from natural seeds, and eat the way John is suggesting, we will begin to have a return to the ability to think for ourselves...and in turn recover the ability to appreciate and care for our great mother. Thanks to you both!!
nice discussion, liked the fact that this was a live event, not snipped to remove disagreements... also the guest is intense, maybe too much so, but he feels honest, and I liked the fact that he didn't plug his own product as being the best, rather he actually said that it is A PREMIUM product which can be like a high octane addition to the basics of gardening
Wow, you two are one of a kind. I could listen to you forever. I support for Josh's Channel. As a French Canadian, let me tell you that I feel sorry for you having to bear with such a delusional President. Keep sharing the HOPE 👍
Lots of research suggesting living worms and the related burrows are a critical component of a healthy soil column. worm burrows help to distribute other microbes as well as provide roots a rich environment
Excellent video. Thank you. Ignore all those ignorant comments about 'politics.' This was a nice break, and I enjoyed watching. This is your channel and you should be able to say whatever you wish on it. Don't worry about views and subs; you have quality content. Anyways, the general message I got from what you guys said here is to have compassion and love the earth, and it will love you back. Reap what you sow. I wish there were more people who feel this way, and I want to thank you for being so respectful to the earth.
You two are so cool. Watching you made me feel like I was hanging out with sincere, good hearted & similarly dedicated and impassioned people. Good for you. Thank you for sharing. You have inspired me to become a "tea head" , by introducing me to the phrase bc I was leaning that way already. I can't wait to learn more. I am also into horticultural oils and I want to start using my plants for essential oil mixes. I can't wait to find out what you guys think/do. Thank you for existing. I learned so much. Had you not called my attention to the GMO/mulch chemical treatment ect. I would not have addressed it. I wrote down the phrase "polluting the compost food chain." Very impactful. Keep it up you two. Another thing I ABSOLUTELY loved was the amount of science casually dropped all over the place. Tip of my hat good sirs.
Hey guy's, keep up the good work's, I'm new to the realization of actually how bad the war on food has become . My Health has finely come to a point it's letting me down . Then to learn through you & many other educational sources of what's really been going on , with our required nutrition's . I grew up living with a great family garden , & raising our own beef cattle & live stock . I've enjoyed creating my own raised bed garden's & the result's from them . Unfortunately I fell into the working in other fields for a living for many year's, only to realize now just how bad this plastic banana stuff is causing so many health Issue's . So thanks again , I'm waking up to it , all in & getting back to real food , with awareness, as to how & what we need to use , to get our food chain back on track ! Looking forward to creating a great 2017 garden & become involved with market gardening & to assist anyone I can to also live life healthier with there own garden's ! Shame on our FDA for miss leading us , as to believing in them for we the people's own best food's, for health & prosperity & letting the greed of Corps. ruin our health ! Hang in there my Friend & HAPPY GARDEN"S for all ! - Ron
Yesh! Another Josh and John video! Thank you for sharing so much vital information. That was a cute, yet terrifying little rhyme... 'Without soil, how you gunna survive post oil' So very true. You two work so well together. It's easier to learn when you've a smile, and every video you produce together is so joyful, no matter the subject. You're a winning team. Team Green!
John I love the videos you do with Josh. You two work off each other. Together you are more than the some of the two parts. And I love how Josh used the salt and cayenne pepper analogy. Excellent video once again. Very Inspiring and always full of great info. thanks
I need access to fresh cannabis leaves. I have no space to grow my own now. Where can I locate/source some for, mainly, juicing? That Orange coconut creme recipe video John did awhile back is like what I have in mind. Rich blessing to you, deliverer.
If you are in Humboldt or Mendo counties then it shouldn't be a problem. Otherwise you will need to ask your local dispensary to, (in turn), ask their cultivators for fresh leaves. (They will need to keep the leaf bags in their fridge -should keep just like salad mix for a week or so). Otherwise, check your local craigslist for "215" offers, (clones, buds, etc). Contact the provider(s) and ask if they have any extra leaf available.
I think it is good to talk about balance in NPK. It is important to remember that the big 3 are good to keep in mind, but soil becomes so powerful due to the blend from multiple avenues in compost.
Hi John. Loved Josh's rant myself! Very informative perspective. Right on, Josh! John, I have a question for you, maybe the subject for a whole separate video,.. QUESTION What should I mix together to create the soil for the best indoor herbs and vegetables. Right now I'm growing lettuce mixes, tomatoes and turmeric.
I thought we were hear to learn about GROWING not politics, WHY does it have to go to politics, my god, I love the videos, you can really learn a ton here let's just keep it about that, PLEASE
I am with Ron, I use his products, and he has some really good information. In his rants, he needs to supply a link for his info, because so much of what he says, politically, is just not accurate. To sing the praises of Cuba, he definately needs to supply a timeline because Cuba hasn't exuded love since before Castro. Gardening, I think he is spot on!!! I love your videos. But these blanket political statements need to be supported with unbiased reports. That said, if we all do as if doing it for Jesus Christ, we would all have love in all that we do.
I LOVED the chemistry you have. Great show, but please let everyone know that non-organic oats are now sprayed with Round-Up as a drying agent(!) at HARVEST! Do not use oats unless you know they are organic.
Wasn't surprised he said BEER. Just got through watching a guy showing how fast he can make compost by mowing his huge lawn for the greens and adding a huge pile of hardwood chips for the browns, and then dumps a can of coke, a can of beer, and a cup of ammonia onto the pile. Covers it in dirt, puts a tarp over that 5-foot pile, and in 2 weeks the whole thing has composted into a beautiful crumbly dirt. I didn't understand it all, but then he explains how the beer hops etc do their job. I don't drink beer, but will get some to try out on that HUGH pile of hardwood chips I have. It would be wonderful if I didn't have to wait 4 years for it to break down enough for me to use. (could have done without the political drivel though)
Jon are you doing live streams for quick question's.. good message for the people. . grow you're own ..back to the basics were man once thrived on survivability.. all organically..
I got his tea because one of my plants had bad termites. I used the black frass on all my plants but on the plant with the termites the surface grew this strange fungal furr and I saw flies crawling out. After i watered it with the boogie brew it went down into the soil and it was not fur.. the plant has never looked as healthy as it does. I'm not lying the next morning when I looked at my plants they were exploding with growth and turned dark GREEN! Even my tomatoes look dark green healthy now after less than 24 hours
I'm what you'd call a righty though I'm not left or right. I love listening to Josh rant. He reminds me of my old hippie days back in the 60's and 70'. You left coast guys are fun. I disagree with some of the stuff you say but it doesn't matter
I enjoy listening to people's various views and beliefs on as many topics as possible, including politics and religion, so I don't have any desire for you guys to stop doing so :) I find it odd that people react with such vitriol to the opinions of those outside their groupthink circles. You're clearly here because you find value in what these people say about gardening (or you're trolling), so why not at least listen to some of their opinions about other things weaved between. No one is simply of one mind, focused on one thing, without any other thoughts; Why expect that? Do I agree 100% with either one of them on any subject I heard them discuss in this video? No. But I don't agree with myself 100% of the time, and that, my friends, is called life and the process of growth.
Thank you John for making this video! I have recently subscribed and began watching your very information-packed shows for about 2 months, since I have inherited command of a community garden in Overtown, Miami, Florida. I tend to a small lot in the care of the Overtown Youth Center, for the kids in their educational after school program, and the previous lead on the garden program was neglectful about the soil health. So, after a year the soil is thin, yet barely holding leafy greens, some herbs, and a few tomatoes in the ground. His sad attempt at boxes harbored snails and fell apart once we managed to relocate them to a more sunny area. John, I would like to reach out to you with our ongoing project, please could you lend your expertise to our space?
I am so glad you got up to speed with Paul Stamets. Please urge your subs and viewers to go check his mushrooms as medicine. growing mushrooms is easy. You can make awesome compost from the used compost media too
John, what about limited patio backyards with a container garden only. I cannot put a compost or worm bin (neighbors are close). What would be soil amendments I can use before growing my spring food?
I grabbed 30 red worms, 30 baby worms and 30 grown earthworms. I have a mix of two soils ,cardboard, old roses, coffee filters and old veggies and fruits. What am i missing? Should i add rock dust?
Great sounding blend, go for a couple of pounds of rock dust for each 10 sq ft of garden space. Also, we totally spaced BIOCHAR. (!). Up to 5% of your soil mix can benefit enormously from biochar, it is a superb "regulator" in the soil engine.
oh. hahaha. i just read one of the comments below. hahaha! anyway... you dudes are GREAT. great minds! great souls. we need to understand this so we can be KIND to our planet, Mother, earth! anyone who is just doing quirky cutie little gardens are self-centered beyond belief. this is activism. eating is activism!
Just a comment for Josh. You mention the Kracken Kelp from India. You should check out where they get it. They use Bombay as a literal toilet. People go down to the bay to crap. Sure that might be all organic, but use that as a reference point of the cleanliness of India.
I have a tumbler in which I put grass clipping and leaves but it never turns into soil. After 6 or so months I remove the stuff and put into the soil. How can I make compost in my tumbler ? It gets about 4 hours of Sun light,
I love this channel and have been watching for years. I'm so glad this wasn't the first one I watched because I would NEVER have subscribed and I would miss out on so many helpful tips. PLEASE NEVER turn this political again! I only have a limited time (during my LO nap) to watch gardening and health videos, so every minute wasted on someone's political opinion is time I could have been listening to something helpful. Now I'm using more time to write this comment to give you viewer feedback. Please keep the main thing the main thing!!
Thank you Sara for putting up with Boogie's diatribe: Apologize for politics. The whole point was meant to be that there is no left vs right. The only battle that matters is the one to save us from ourselves! Liberalism won't save us, nor will the most strident conservatives either. Our planet is DYING, 2/3 of wild species are going EXTINCT and this whole place is heating up something fierce. More plastic in the oceans than fish = nothing to do with politics, everything to do with NOT RAPING OUR PLANET. So the main thing IS the main thing = mobilizing NOW to stop things getting ever worse.Down with the OIL-IGARCHY. Up with natural gardening.
Boogie Brew yea butt you insult us to say Trump supporters and republicans want to hurt the environment...If we are here we are gardening ..there ya go John at the end talks about love ...butt Josh talks love butt sounds hateful towards republicans
@@eieio-mn9pm I don't think it was hate, I think it was information overload. Passion. Hope. Preaching. Stating the truth for the most part. But not hate. Maybe worry. Which is not good either. The Bible states not to worry about anything but instead pray about everything. For good reason.
People should complain to their senators about companies like Monsanto and tell them your want more organic foods grown in this country and make it more available to all people. The more people complain the better chance it will may come to fruition.
Boogie Brew guy sounds like Woody Allen going off on one of his rants! There's nothing wrong with it, but phrases like "failed suburbia" are straight up chicken compost, and can burn if over used.
Josh's ideas are fantastic. The political system is ruining the planet as the try to make everyone believe that they are trying to make a better world for everyone when in fact politicians' only goal is to make themselves rich at the expense of everyone else. Go Josh! John, your enthusiasm is infectious. Keep it going. Go John!
Boogie brew, I would like to get some Organic Solution Premium Worm Castings, which you advertise on your site, but when I go to order it, a different plain Organic Solutions Amendments package comes up, with nothing in the description saying it is the Premium Worm Castings. How can I buy the Real Organic Solution Premium Worm Castings? And if that is it, then why doesn't it say that?
I bought your juicer slow start. What recepie u recommend for anxiety and depression? Mild. By the way what should I include in my compost bin because they say compose in 2 weeks but the smell it’s crazy and it’s been 2 weeks . I don’t add paper of any kind. Just veg and some top soil to speed up and add to the process. What do you recommend for the smell because of my gated community. HELP I LOVE MY KELP AND COMPOST
All you guys crying about the politics here, are soft, and need to get a thicker skin.....like this should be so offensive. If you are tired with Josh, then don't watch the vids with him in it....simple. Josh brings far more knowledge than politics.
yeah I agree that was way off base, I really shoulda', coulda'....woulda' said they chose to love hard work of gardening, (rather than hating to starve instead).....
@@BoogieBrew There is a great documentary called "the Power of Community", which is based on the same event mentioned. It's about how Cuba survived their abrupt withdrawal from Soviet aid, when the USSR collapsed, and could send no more oil, or petrol. I never idealize Cuba, but in this case, they did prioritize assurance of everyone's survival during that time...it was through government coordination, and resource allocation, along with citizen action. They were left with almost no petrol, so they cleverly rationed what they had left, then had to learn "old timey" organic ways of growing food, everybody was issued a bicycle, and (barely) survival amount of food. Every square inch of arable land was transformed into vegetable gardens. They invited old folks that remembered how to drive oxen to teach the modernized young, thus ignorant. The soil had been ruined from decades of chemical fertilizers, and needed to be restored. It sure contrasted with the other Soviet dependent state, North Korea, where millions were left to starve. The term "love" is over generously applied, I'm sure, but their success was a result of an unprecedented spirit of cooperation, along with their government that did take correct action. On a national level, that is as close to "love" as anyone will ever want to get... heh heh. I am writing here in the midst of this pandemic, and I ponder what the US has become...and is turning into. When the stream of foreign goods gets turned off like a tap (including oil), will we choose "love"?
I'd have a lot of people in the comments here contemplate the degree to which the stuff John and Josh are talking about here is not about political positioning. Issues of sustainability and health have much more to do with morality and planetary well being. These are issues that everyone should care about. Question who would have you believe that the issues being discussed here are 'lefty' issues. They're not. They're human issues and environmental issues. Politicians who would convince you that caring about these issues is 'lefty' are not interested in any true political ideology. They're just greedy.
The left as a political ideology doesn't know which way is up. - If the left truly cared about global warming, they'd aggressively push people to eat less animals. They don't, and I don't know one democrat politician who is vegan. - If they truly cared about global warming, they'd aggressively reduce the global population. They don't. Instead they encourage high breeding developing world nations to come to the USA and put more pressure on the environment here. - If the left truly cared about sustainabil;ity, they'd give tax breaks to local communities trying to be self sustainable. But they don't. They want higher taxes collected by an ever more powerful centralist government that redistributes local initiative and wealth creation to those exercising less initiative. I am a libertarian. I can do permaculture and regenerative agriculture. I can do farmer's markets. I can sell to locals. I can trade produce in a cashless economy, and barter other goods and services. I can do all that and not be a socialist. The difference is I decide what I produce and how I sell it. I don't need elitists telling me how to do it.
@@helicart whoa. high breeding nations and population control. hmmm. why dont u hang out bill gates and work on his medicine and vaccines programs in dev world. cant support u on any even slightly eugenist notions. racism. high breeding. oh man.
@@truthseekertree . Fertility rate stats by ethnicity by nation, and US ethnic group, are in the public domain, . The democrats know breeding rates are higher among third world migrants. Encouraging migration from these nations is a primary tool for them to win elections. As an example, take Rashida Tlaib. Her father and mother came to the USA childless. After 2 years working in auto manufacturing, the parents proceeded to pump out 14 children, and never had to go to work again due to welfare benefits. Rashida is the eldest. That's one version of the American Dream. People create environmental pressure. Less people reduce the pressure. You either want to save the planet, or you are happy for people to keep being paid by leftist governments to breed. You cannot support both, which is quite the moral dilemma for leftists.
I love how the OP simply said “environment and health are human issues” and the replies are basic eugenics arguments. This shows you how brainwashed people are. Numb to the violence.
It's your channel, John. Talk about what you want to talk about!! You taught me how to garden, and I trust you.
Jessica Blackwell Yeah! ✊
Watching this in 2023, more relevant than ever....love your work, and as for the energy and passion from the boogymeister.....Words fail me....BIG Love

WOW- this had me in tears today. 4 yrs later needed more than ever,
I have started my own small farm this year. I hope to get certified organic in the coming years. I have a few compost bins going. One just wood chips all made from dead fall or pruned trees from my property, one of leafs, one of a mix and one for the wood chips from my chickens.

good to see Josh back for 2017
Passion for living. proud to recommend boogie brew and plant based living. your the shit!
john and josh the organic monk preaching the good soil
Lots of research suggesting living worms and the related burrows are a critical component of a healthy soil column. worm burrows help to distribute other microbes as well as provide roots a rich environment
Good to see Josh's face again, I'd forgotten what he looks like since the days of masking...
it's his channel he should be able to said whatever he wants. love your channel keep up the good work
He can just as people are allowed to respond..
WOW, amazing show and I love this guest's insights and enthusiasm. So very inspirational.

I watch your videos a lot and I always come back to this one
Josh i love your passion. John thanks for all you do. Peace.
If you live near the sea, kelp in your compost is a good source of trace minerals.
You two are so cool. Watching you made me feel like I was hanging out with sincere, good hearted & similarly dedicated and impassioned people. Good for you. Thank you for sharing. You have inspired me to become a "tea head" , by introducing me to the phrase bc I was leaning that way already. I can't wait to learn more.

Pay no attention to the naysayers. You have a right to voice your opinion, and you've always been an honest guy. Thanks for another great vid. ;)
it's a blessing to have both of you guys giving and helping with your advice........Wow......thank you.....
JOSH NEEDS HIS OWN CHANNEL! LETS ALL GET HEALTHY AND PROTECT THE EARTH TOGETHER! WHOOO!
I need access to fresh cannabis leaves. I have no space to grow my own now. Where can I locate/source some for, mainly, juicing? That Orange coconut creme recipe video John did awhile back is like what I have in mind. Rich blessing to you, deliverer.

Thanks for the knowledge John & Josh! Boogie Brew has done great things in our garden.
Hi John. Loved Josh's rant myself! Very informative perspective. Right on, Josh!
John, I have a question for you, maybe the subject for a whole separate video,..
QUESTION
What should I mix together to create the soil for the best indoor herbs and vegetables. Right now I'm growing lettuce mixes, tomatoes and turmeric.
I thought we were hear to learn about GROWING not politics, WHY does it have to go to politics, my god, I love the videos, you can really learn a ton here let's just keep it about that, PLEASE
Josh is awesome...he's another facet of you!! Thank you Josh and John.
John and Josh keep it up!!!!!! Love you!!!!!!!!!
I am with Ron, I use his products, and he has some really good information. In his rants, he needs to supply a link for his info, because so much of what he says, politically, is just not accurate.

I didn't understand it all, but then he explains how the beer hops etc do their job. I don't drink beer, but will get some to try out on that HUGH pile of hardwood chips I have. It would be wonderful if I didn't have to wait 4 years for it to break down enough for me to use. (could have done without the political drivel though)
I think I might have seen that video a long time ago but could you link to the video please? Thank you
I just love watching the two of you. Education with flair!!!
Your videos have been very inspiring, I'm finally growing food. We are thriving and having fun, thanks for sharing your experiences and tips!
Jon are you doing live streams for quick question's.. good message for the people. . grow you're own ..back to the basics were man once thrived on survivability.. all organically..
So how would you go about adding fungal components to your compost? Add a lot of wood chips? Yeasts?
I got his tea because one of my plants had bad termites. I used the black frass on all my plants but on the plant with the termites the surface grew this strange fungal furr and I saw flies crawling out. After i watered it with the boogie brew it went down into the soil and it was not fur.. the plant has never looked as healthy as it does. I'm not lying the next morning when I looked at my plants they were exploding with growth and turned dark GREEN! Even my tomatoes look dark green healthy now after less than 24 hours
I'm what you'd call a righty though I'm not left or right. I love listening to Josh rant. He reminds me of my old hippie days back in the 60's and 70'. You left coast guys are fun. I disagree with some of the stuff you say but it doesn't matter
So what's the best soil amendments ?
70 percent compost 30 percent fungal components
Hillary?
Watch it again.
I requested 4/20 off. :)
John can you grow Pot? Just wondering cause we can't here in Texas yet.
the 2 #1 things to stop eating is bread/flours an dairy
Love Joshes rants, very enlightening.
I enjoy listening to people's various views and beliefs on as many topics as possible, including politics and religion, so I don't have any desire for you guys to stop doing so :)
I find it odd that people react with such vitriol to the opinions of those outside their groupthink circles. You're clearly here because you find value in what these people say about gardening (or you're trolling), so why not at least listen to some of their opinions about other things weaved between. No one is simply of one mind, focused on one thing, without any other thoughts; Why expect that?
Do I agree 100% with either one of them on any subject I heard them discuss in this video? No. But I don't agree with myself 100% of the time, and that, my friends, is called life and the process of growth.
Wow, love it, that is some GOOD AJ wisdom! Thank you for your mature and eloquent comment!
Well said brother
I enjoyed these vids very much. Love hearing different opinions and views too. Thanks.
Yay, Josh! This guy is rad.
That isn't Politics, it is Passion. This man Cares. Awesome.
Thank you John for making this video! I have recently subscribed and began watching your very information-packed shows for about 2 months, since I have inherited command of a community garden in Overtown, Miami, Florida. I tend to a small lot in the care of the Overtown Youth Center, for the kids in their educational after school program, and the previous lead on the garden program was neglectful about the soil health. So, after a year the soil is thin, yet barely holding leafy greens, some herbs, and a few tomatoes in the ground. His sad attempt at boxes harbored snails and fell apart once we managed to relocate them to a more sunny area. John, I would like to reach out to you with our ongoing project, please could you lend your expertise to our space?
I am so glad you got up to speed with Paul Stamets. Please urge your subs and viewers to go check his mushrooms as medicine. growing mushrooms is easy. You can make awesome compost from the used compost media too
Loved your videos for years
I'm living in nyc . I just started making compost smoothies but I need to do more compost
John, what about limited patio backyards with a container garden only. I cannot put a compost or worm bin (neighbors are close). What would be soil amendments I can use before growing my spring food?
A little strange but VERY good information. Thanks
Why are people saying stay away from politics...this is his channel.
I grabbed 30 red worms, 30 baby worms and 30 grown earthworms. I have a mix of two soils ,cardboard, old roses, coffee filters and old veggies and fruits. What am i missing? Should i add rock dust?
Great sounding blend, go for a couple of pounds of rock dust for each 10 sq ft of garden space. Also, we totally spaced BIOCHAR. (!). Up to 5% of your soil mix can benefit enormously from biochar, it is a superb "regulator" in the soil engine.
I have a 40x30 inground garden 3 4x12 raised beds,drive a prius and use led bulbs
YOU are the example that folks should be following everywhere, instead of madmen living in gilded gold towers!
DO WHAT YOU'RE ABLE. very very cool!
oh. hahaha. i just read one of the comments below. hahaha! anyway... you dudes are GREAT. great minds! great souls. we need to understand this so we can be KIND to our planet, Mother, earth! anyone who is just doing quirky cutie little gardens are self-centered beyond belief. this is activism. eating is activism!
Awesome conversation gentlemen. Thanks for the passion 💚🤙🏼
Just a comment for Josh. You mention the Kracken Kelp from India. You should check out where they get it. They use Bombay as a literal toilet. People go down to the bay to crap. Sure that might be all organic, but use that as a reference point of the cleanliness of India.
Taking care of the earth is so important
please make a youtube channel! love the wisdom and reminders
I am inspired by you, Josh! Will grow ...
I have a tumbler in which I put grass clipping and leaves but it never turns into soil. After 6 or so months I remove the stuff and put into the soil. How can I make compost in my tumbler ? It gets about 4 hours of Sun light,
Add 5% to 10% alfalfa for some "heat", (helps in thermo-breakdown). Add wood chips, newspaper shreds, etc. Turn the tumbler as often as possible.
I love this channel and have been watching for years. I'm so glad this wasn't the first one I watched because I would NEVER have subscribed and I would miss out on so many helpful tips. PLEASE NEVER turn this political again! I only have a limited time (during my LO nap) to watch gardening and health videos, so every minute wasted on someone's political opinion is time I could have been listening to something helpful. Now I'm using more time to write this comment to give you viewer feedback. Please keep the main thing the main thing!!
Thank you Sara for putting up with Boogie's diatribe: Apologize for politics. The whole point was meant to be that there is no left vs right. The only battle that matters is the one to save us from ourselves! Liberalism won't save us, nor will the most strident conservatives either. Our planet is DYING, 2/3 of wild species are going EXTINCT and this whole place is heating up something fierce. More plastic in the oceans than fish = nothing to do with politics, everything to do with NOT RAPING OUR PLANET. So the main thing IS the main thing = mobilizing NOW to stop things getting ever worse.Down with the OIL-IGARCHY. Up with natural gardening.
Boogie Brew yea butt you insult us to say Trump supporters and republicans want to hurt the environment...If we are here we are gardening ..there ya go John at the end talks about love ...butt Josh talks love butt sounds hateful towards republicans
@@eieio-mn9pm I don't think it was hate, I think it was information overload. Passion. Hope. Preaching. Stating the truth for the most part. But not hate. Maybe worry. Which is not good either. The Bible states not to worry about anything but instead pray about everything. For good reason.
People should complain to their senators about companies like Monsanto and tell them your want more organic foods grown in this country and make it more available to all people. The more people complain the better chance it will may come to fruition.
You guys are great together. When did josh become a monk ?
Boogie Brew guy sounds like Woody Allen going off on one of his rants! There's nothing wrong with it, but phrases like "failed suburbia" are straight up chicken compost, and can burn if over used.
Josh's ideas are fantastic. The political system is ruining the planet as the try to make everyone believe that they are trying to make a better world for everyone when in fact politicians' only goal is to make themselves rich at the expense of everyone else. Go Josh! John, your enthusiasm is infectious. Keep it going. Go John!
Josh what is your educational background? How did you get so knowledgeable about botany.
Boogie brew, I would like to get some Organic Solution Premium Worm Castings, which you advertise on your site, but when I go to order it, a different plain Organic Solutions Amendments package comes up, with nothing in the description saying it is the Premium Worm Castings. How can I buy the Real Organic Solution Premium Worm Castings? And if that is it, then why doesn't it say that?
Yes I'm gratefull for living at this time in my journey
I bought your juicer slow start. What recepie u recommend for anxiety and depression? Mild. By the way what should I include in my compost bin because they say compose in 2 weeks but the smell it’s crazy and it’s been 2 weeks . I don’t add paper of any kind. Just veg and some top soil to speed up and add to the process. What do you recommend for the smell because of my gated community. HELP I LOVE MY KELP AND COMPOST
All you guys crying about the politics here, are soft, and need to get a thicker skin.....like this should be so offensive. If you are tired with Josh, then don't watch the vids with him in it....simple. Josh brings far more knowledge than politics.
Thank you for another great informative video John and Josh!
Josh is a great guest.
"in Cuba they chose love" LMFAOOOOOOOOO
yeah I agree that was way off base, I really shoulda', coulda'....woulda' said they chose to love hard work of gardening, (rather than hating to starve instead).....
That's where I checked out.
@@BoogieBrew There is a great documentary called "the Power of Community", which is based on the same event mentioned. It's about how Cuba survived their abrupt withdrawal from Soviet aid, when the USSR collapsed, and could send no more oil, or petrol.
I never idealize Cuba, but in this case, they did prioritize assurance of everyone's survival during that time...it was through government coordination, and resource allocation, along with citizen action. They were left with almost no petrol, so they cleverly rationed what they had left, then had to learn "old timey" organic ways of growing food, everybody was issued a bicycle, and (barely) survival amount of food. Every square inch of arable land was transformed into vegetable gardens. They invited old folks that remembered how to drive oxen to teach the modernized young, thus ignorant. The soil had been ruined from decades of chemical fertilizers, and needed to be restored.
It sure contrasted with the other Soviet dependent state, North Korea, where millions were left to starve.
The term "love" is over generously applied, I'm sure, but their success was a result of an unprecedented spirit of cooperation, along with their government that did take correct action. On a national level, that is as close to "love" as anyone will ever want to get... heh heh.
I am writing here in the midst of this pandemic, and I ponder what the US has become...and is turning into. When the stream of foreign goods gets turned off like a tap (including oil), will we choose "love"?
can you tell me the benefits and limitations of clinoptilolite? how does it compare to basalt rock dust? or vermiculite?
I'd have a lot of people in the comments here contemplate the degree to which the stuff John and Josh are talking about here is not about political positioning. Issues of sustainability and health have much more to do with morality and planetary well being. These are issues that everyone should care about. Question who would have you believe that the issues being discussed here are 'lefty' issues. They're not. They're human issues and environmental issues. Politicians who would convince you that caring about these issues is 'lefty' are not interested in any true political ideology. They're just greedy.
The left as a political ideology doesn't know which way is up.
- If the left truly cared about global warming, they'd aggressively push people to eat less animals. They don't, and I don't know one democrat politician who is vegan.
- If they truly cared about global warming, they'd aggressively reduce the global population. They don't. Instead they encourage high breeding developing world nations to come to the USA and put more pressure on the environment here.
- If the left truly cared about sustainabil;ity, they'd give tax breaks to local communities trying to be self sustainable. But they don't. They want higher taxes collected by an ever more powerful centralist government that redistributes local initiative and wealth creation to those exercising less initiative.
I am a libertarian. I can do permaculture and regenerative agriculture. I can do farmer's markets. I can sell to locals.
I can trade produce in a cashless economy, and barter other goods and services.
I can do all that and not be a socialist. The difference is I decide what I produce and how I sell it. I don't need elitists telling me how to do it.
@@helicart whoa. high breeding nations and population control. hmmm. why dont u hang out bill gates and work on his medicine and vaccines programs in dev world. cant support u on any even slightly eugenist notions. racism. high breeding. oh man.
@@truthseekertree .
Fertility rate stats by ethnicity by nation, and US ethnic group, are in the public domain, .
The democrats know breeding rates are higher among third world migrants.
Encouraging migration from these nations is a primary tool for them to win elections.
As an example, take Rashida Tlaib. Her father and mother came to the USA childless.
After 2 years working in auto manufacturing, the parents proceeded to pump out 14 children, and never had to go to work again due to welfare benefits. Rashida is the eldest.
That's one version of the American Dream.
People create environmental pressure. Less people reduce the pressure. You either want to save the planet, or you are happy for people to keep being paid by leftist governments to breed.
You cannot support both, which is quite the moral dilemma for leftists.
I love how the OP simply said “environment and health are human issues” and the replies are basic eugenics arguments. This shows you how brainwashed people are. Numb to the violence.
I wish I could give this more thumbs up I love the boogie brew guy
The "good" times are over. You are so damn right josh
Holy crap i love this guy! So down to earth. 420 bro
2017 was a good year comparatively lol 😬 thx for all the valuable knowledge!❤✌
Love the passion
Can you use old organic tapioca flour for compost? Old wheat flour?
