    All your principles for plant health apply exactly to the health of man and woman. All I would add is in reference to 'good' and 'bad' bacteria - it is a fallacy to still think of bacteria as good or bad. The role of bacteria is to support - they are helpers - only when the environment they live in becomes toxic or poisoned do they proliferate to the extent that we perceive them to be 'bad'. They are just doing their job. Love your videos, so pleased I found you - thank you - absolutely spot on!

Now I feel dumb over it. So I am going to give the tree all my lovin this year, compost, fish hydrolysate, and pile the leaves around the base so the next apples have somewhere to immediately start decomposing.
      My friend said he wants to fix the tree again, and return it to a fruit maker. He knows the pruning aspect that I dont know about, but I will be its nutritionist. Peace!🇨🇦👊🏻👨🏻‍🏭✨💖🙏🌞

      ​​@@BigWesLawns don't feel too bad, i always collect and compost the fruit. The reason being fungal infections are pretty common and if you don't remove affected fruit, also on the ground, it can spread further and seriously deminish the output of the tree and the rotting fruit also attracts tons of yellow jackets where i live.
      Even when composting the fruit, it can still spread spores if in the vicinity of a tree.
      The best solution would be to bury the fruit deep and it will rot and act as a fertilizer without the risks of contamination

    We have lived in NC for two years this spring. So still have a lot to learn! We put up a greenhouse and have a bunch of huge pots all planted with Potatoes, Tomatoes, Peppers, and Sweet Potatoes ... I want to put them outside but we are going to start building our raised beds this summer and in the fall.

    FYI. For fruit trees. Take the prematurely fallen fruit and stick it in a bucket of water. Many times it falls early cuz it has worms. When the worms come out they will drown. Then the fruit water can safely be dumped back out around the tree. Found out about the worms from Stephan but found out about the drowned worms on accident 😂

    Interesting view point on nature's way. I have recently found that cucumbers are a plant saver. I grow weed and any sick plants or problems I make a cucumber leachate and the plants get better. Seaweed and cucumbers are my go to for fixing problems. I always have a container with water to make a soup of whatever is in season as I love to forage for free stuff. Comfrey, nettles, dandelions and any fruits. Keeps me in tune to the seasons. Massive ragwort problem in my area; but the leaf mould from them is amazing.

    Whole heap of work, when stinging nettles contain every nutrient and mineral that _any_ plant needs, just stored there in _one_ single plant!
    Been fermenting them every year for decades.
    Just over five decades, that's over half a century, and it's never failed me once.
    The most reviled, yet vastly underestimated plant on the entire planet.
    Food, drink, medicine, material and fertiliser under people's very noses and they don't even give it a second glance.
    Everything else I use to bulk up, as organic matter, the growing medium, but that ferment is the spark giving plants the zest for life.
    They look different, act different, smell different.
    It's garden voodoo. 😁

    Excellent advice! Thank you for putting in all the time and effort to make your videos. You may or may not recall, but I posted another comment on a different video of yours about having nutritionally lacking soil and trying to prep it for eventual topsoil and grass seed. Your recommendation to me was to use a cover crop. I tried planting buckwheat, but the hot, dry summer and my inability to keep the seeds moist prevented any hopes of germination. Instead, I let the weeds grow and serve as a cover crop of sorts. I have also put together some JADAM fertilizer using the blades of weeds that were growing heartily. I tried that fertilizer on some young trees I was trying to help endure the summer and I noticed new leaves growing very shortly after! So, it appears the fertilizer works very well based on the rapid response of the trees to the fertilizer (I read somewhere that high nitrogen fertilizer prompts new growth in trees, and that lots of water is required thereafter, which is why it’s generally better to fertilize trees in the spring and fall). I dedicated a fair amount of time and water making sure the trees did well over the summer, but otherwise I sat back in amazement at how the weeds continued to thrive despite no water other than the very rare drizzle. You’re not kidding about nature taking care of itself! While my neighbors’ lawns are dead/dying, my yard (albeit covered with weeds) is lush green. Anyway, thanks again and keep up the good work! I really appreciate it!

      depending on where you live you can plant winter wheat or winter rye and it will grow all winter then shade out the other weeds as it grows very prolific in the spring time... the thing with weeds cover crop is you have to make sure they don't germinate next year when you try to use the land!!

    Thanks, I started to see this same understanding last spring.
    So I collected all the plants around, which looked structurally similar as plants I was about to grow. I chopped them as small particles as I could and put them to water. To make bacteria proces quicker I added some compost soil and sugary rotting fruits…and started to use it straight ahead, better than plain water anyway. Plants that I’ve been giving that are thriving. If I have a break, plain watering, they start to show signs of deficienies in a week.

    I love your ideas, putting the excess back into the soil to regenerate more and better plant growth. It makes so much sense to me.
    We were brought up to choose ourselves how much we want to eat, and whatever was left was used to replenish our garden. And all seemed good and well.
    In contrast to that, it was perhaps amusing to see another lot, become very upset, accusatory and angry when e.g. an apple was found to be rotting. They were shouting that good food was being wasted, and therefore apples should not be purchased anymore! to stop food wastage. Then someone would be told they had to eat the apple even though it was not good, as they needed to be taught not to let food go off.
    I wondered why the old woman in particular didnt understand that the tree had produced more fruit than would be eaten by humans, and that some of the fruit would go through the rotting and recycle processes as plant fertilizer in an almost perfect balance, and no one needed to live feeling like a bad person just because an apple or an orange began decaying. She could have treated the left over apple as treasure for her garden!.

    The crop residue fertilizer was ready to use and I had some of the calcium fertilizer made already.
    Used a five gallon bucket of water and added 30 ml of the calcium, approx. 350 ml of the crop residue fertilizer. And 30 ml of some kelp meal liquid fertilizer I had on hand.
    Watered the base of my peas, raspberry bushes that are still young, and some of my indeterminant tomatoes I have growing still. Can’t wait to see what it does! Even if it’s pretty late in the season!
