Today saw one of your 6 yr old video. Searched your farm and subscribed. So glad that you are still doing what u love
Also then you were farming 1/2 acre, how much now? Ty
Now I have 16 acres! But I'm only using about 8 currently for all my animals and gardens/trees.
Sooo cool watching nature break things down. Truly appreciate you walking thru your whole process. It might not be pretty, but it is pretty good way to get things done well.
I cant wait for the in person course this is so needed
I always learn something interesting when watching your videos.
Good timing! I just put a deer in my compost yesterday.
Sooooo cool man!!!
Finally a solution for the mother-in-law problem!
great stuff
The dog is very interested 😂
Wow, that's crazy!
This is the only channel that is the most informative, no matter how many yrs have flown past, your content is always valuable, Cheers from Australia ❤️
Thank you for sharing ✌️✨️🧚♂️🤟🌻🐝
How did you train Millie to not mess with your garden and also the chickens?? Have a small flock and an expanding garden and just got a puppy last week. Trying to figure out the best way to train her
Composted full grown ewe with hay, manure, kitchen scraps etc. after first 2 weeks we turned the 1.5m x 1.5m compost. We didn’t see her but turned the compost every 3 days after that for about a month. We did find a few of her bones but nothing else. It never smelled but was very hot 170’ that whole time. She’ll always be a part of our gardens now, our beloved Naomi❤
Always making the best videos - Thanks Steven
Thanks Jacob!
Woah!
Had a dream about this last night that’s crazy
Great work bro!
So cool. Great info ,thank you
This is great, thanks for sharing. It would be very interesting to have a control pile, where you don't put any microbes or KNF additions on, just wood chips, leaves, hay/straw, and maybe some soil, and other biomass from the property.
Great video Steven
I saw another video where they put bones in a slow cooker for I think 6hrs then blender to make bone meal dry amendment. What do you think of this method? I find dry amendments are great but I've heard it takes at least two weeks of being on the soil breaking down to become plant available. The liquid seems more like immediately plant available - which would be helpful if your plants need something immediately because of a deficiency. Thoughts??
Sounds like a great way to make bone meal. Just a lot of work and effort for not a lot of result vs just buying bone meal. That's why I'd prefer just making the water soluble version.
Great video! I have 4 compost piles going and each has animal byproducts. Primarily chicken guts and feathers from meat bird harvest. We catch the blood in a bucket with some water then use a paint stirrer on a drill to break up the coagulation. Some of the blood went on the compost piles but most went on the garlic. I also have a bone collection from previous compost piles that I’ll burn and crush. Powder will go on the ground and larger stuff in vinegar.
The nutrients in the bones, primarily phosphorus, are absorbed into the vinegar which is then made more readily available to the plant. It’s a quicker way to feed plants. Bone meal alone as a fertilizer isn’t readily available to plants. The bone has to be broken down by microbes to then be available to the plants. This takes a few months.
Lol the title of this video! 😂Love your plaid jacket Steven! Those are great colors for you!
Millie and your viewers wants to know if your going to compost her when she expires?
Throwing rats that got in trouble in my hot compost even in a short time even those bones were broken down without a sign of them. Not often I share that experience with those that receive produce from my garden,,,lol
Give thanks! 🙏 oh it’s this man I love this man
I composted a full grown goat and there wasn’t much smell at all. It didn’t take long
Why not just add the bones to the next compost pile?
You absolutely can and that's a good way to deal with them but they will take a decade to fully break up. Just giving more options on what to do by talking about WCP.
Awesome video Steven. Are you still working on your natural chicken raising course?
Yes I am and I'm almost finished. Sorry it's taken so long!
Be careful Goggling this folks you might get a knock on the door. 🤣
I always just crushed the bones and soaked them in vinegar previously.
Does burning them first still give you the calcium and improve the decomposition?
Classic title. Sure to get you some new subscribers. But they might not be into gardening as much as us. Hehe 😂
I actually had a net loss of subscribers on this video so far haha. Vegans hate me.
