@@lukeswain1752 this is the second time that I've grown mustard greens and it always amazes me how much better they taste compared to the varieties in the grocery store. Are you able to grow them in the fall too?

@@farmermarshall I've never eaten them from the store. Or at all 🤣 no idea if they'll grow in the fall. I'm sure they'll last til at least first frost. This is my first time growing them

Thank you! Stay connected!

Glad you like them! You might not realize how much that means to me!

Reading comments like this make my days so much better! Glad you like them!

Glad to be helpful!

Yes, I was completely shocked by how many I had! They grew so easily!

@@farmermarshall try to over winter them, they do wonders after a couple

I don't recall...

Yes, I have plenty of browns so I only use a little cardboard.

It's funny that you mentioned that because I have a short coming out today based on that thanks for commenting!

Thanks for watching.

There isn’t consensus on what is the ideal ratio of browns to greens because there is a wide variation in the Carbon and Nitrogen content of different ingredients. It is known through decades of scientific research that the ideal range for the Carbon/Nitrogen (C/N) ratio for composting is between 25-30/1. Greens are defined as materials with a C/N ratio below 25/1 and browns are defined as those above 30/1, while those items which fall in the ideal range are already balanced. If you use sawdust, which can have a C/N ratio as high as 500/1 you will need a higher proportion of greens to balance that Carbon content then if you used old dry hay which can have a C/N ratio that is already much closer to balanced. Also, eggshells are not a green as they contain little to no Nitrogen, whole eggs, however, are highly Nitrogenous owing to their high protein content. Smells can come from an imbalance of C/N, but they can have other causes as well. A well balanced pile can still go anaerobic if it is not actively, or passively aerated, which will result in smells, or adding greens in large pieces that have a low surface area to volume ratio can restrict aeration within the material resulting in localized anaerobic conditions. In such cases the addition of more browns can help to mask or absorb the smell, but will lead to an imbalance later, and Increasing the surface area of the materials being composted will be the better fix.

Glad you like it!

Thanks for your support dude!😎

Thanks, Always try to grow & save money with good, safe food.

Thanks for watching!

Fortunately, this type of bee is pretty common here. Hopefully, that won't change. Thanks for watching

Thanks. I don't know how I missed this comment. Growing as much as I can!

Me too but that heat...96 today!

@@farmermarshall i have a new short video on how i deal with the heat

Yes, a gardener's best friend!

They make it tough on everyone!

The video explains the entire process. Just cut a decent size piece off. I used 8 - 12 inches. Put it in some water & wait for the roots to grow. You can also remove the lower branches/leaves. It works. Hope this helps!

Thanks so much!

Thanks. The best food is always home grown!

Glad that it works for you! Eventually I want to grow everything from seeds
