    Hello. Thanks so much for sharing this. I tried growing with mesh bags last year and it did not work out. I just picked 2 and noticed one was slightly different and slightly mushy. Anyways I soaked in vinegar, water and baking soda. So far one worm came out! I can even see the exit hole. 😮

    THANK YOU for bringing this concern up. I had a pine tree cut down in my yard, and have been considering turning the logs into a Hugelkultur bed, but I definitely have carpenter ants and don't want to give them a free palace. I'll definitely need to think more about this. I wonder if there's a way to deter the ants from the wood.

    About How many seeds are in a segment or a spoonful. So I’m hoping you see my comment as a suggestion and not a criticism I love the idea of showing fruits and maybe vegetables that most people don’t get to see or experience. Thank you. Problem is when you hold up a spoonful of for instance, seeds, or fruit tilted toward the camera. It gets blurry when you hold it up straight and you can’t see what’s on the spoon. Thanks again.

  • @jackson32

    You should look into mulching. Especially in a hot area, mulch will stop water loss from the soil, stop the soil from getting too hot, and can double as compost.

  • @TF-xc5hp
    @TF-xc5hp Před 3 měsíci

    When you build a Hugelkkltur bed it needs to be controlled its humidity. We need to cover them with a plastic sheet for at least a year so it can't be too wet or too dry. (Don’t forget to make little holes in the plastic) We don't water them for the first three months, you just water them just enough to cover the soil on the day you build one. Three months after you build a bed, punch holes in a plastic to sow anything you want. Also, degrading logs require a little bit of the air, so it's important to dig each side of the bed to let them easier to breath.(but don't expose them)

  • @metallion0738
    @metallion0738 Před 3 měsíci

  • @sirrichard87
    @sirrichard87 Před 3 měsíci

    We experienced the exact same problem on multiple fruit trees in our backyard orchard. Ants create symbiotic relationships with bugs that feed off fruit trees, slowing and stunting growth and production. We put tape around the base trunk of each affected tree. This stopped the ants climbing up the trees and all the sucking pest problems went away.

    My vanilla orchard was small and stitching itself to a mini pony tail Palm. I decided to remove it from the mini palm and attach it to a bottle palm but the roots are coming out dry and not attaching. Leaves are growing. Some of the bottom leaves got brown and dry and shriveled. How can I get the roots to grow healthy and attach to the tree?

    Any good tips for preventing this? Maybe like those mesh fruit bags to keep the flies off trhe fruit? or fruit fly traps?

    • @at37akis
      @at37akis Před 4 měsíci

      I tried bagging them with mesh bags this year, it helps a little but really not too great. I think it's because the mesh isn't thick enough and when it rains, or on windy days the mesh will eventually touch the fruit and the fruit flies can still get to them. I have just removed a lot of fruits that are still attached to tree and still in mesh bags, but can see many fruit fly pupae at the bottom of mesh bags so those fruits were definitely infested. I'm going to try double bag next time, or find a way to keep enough distance between fruit and mesh bag at all times so fruit flies can't reach.
