Yeah I was a bit nervous but I wanted to share that the journey is sometimes hard and you get tested. In th end we just need to keep walking the walk and doing better every time.

Yes it does and?

@P3 Permaculture most people plan backwards not knowing what top soil and plants will be damaged because of how wind moves

Yeah I’m a bit late to the game for this year but I needed fresh good footage. Either way get a fan in their for this year and it will ward off any mould or dampening off.

I am also going to do a review of the Amazon soil locker when I get it to see if it’s worthy! Mine was from John eta seed but I got hit with a big duties charge and won’t recommend that to anyone. The other option is leevaley but it was more then 50$ last I checked

I’m glad you like this one! It’s part of our Fundamentals of permaculture online course. www.p3permaculture.ca/slides/permaculture-design-fundamentals-2. The middle one was done on a graphic software, I believe it was adobe illustrator, and the left was is hand drawn.

I now have upgraded to using Real-time Landscape architect! It’s quite intuitive and has some great features. For a reasonable price.

We’re all in this together! I am grateful not to be alone in these times of climate chaos!

I thought I had put the image of the companion mix. It’s onions lettuce parsnip and potato, but I also have peach and tatsoi, and pakchoi. Bush beans, celery, corn, garlic, marigolds, onions, and peas all do well planted near potatoes. Avoid planting potatoes near asparagus, Brassicas, carrots, cucumber, kohlrabi, melons, parsnips, rutabaga, squash, sunflower, and turnips

But remember you need to check if those are all compatible, like beans go with potatoes and so do onions but beans and onions or any allium don’t mix

Also avoid all brassicas with potatoes

Will see about brassicas. Only thing i read about them and potatoes are possible nitrogen competition. Some web site list them as good companions. Seeing how much foliage i had last year on my tuber, it seem a rich area. Will probably try some kale anyway, i do not eat a mouthful of it, so it would not be a desaster if it is a failure.

@@raphaelblais8191 LOL yeah it is confusing, I seem to remember once doing kale and potatoes and leeks, In reality you don't want to much nitrogen for potatoes as they will only produce greens and not many potatoes. One old trick a very old farmer told me is to put each potato in a comfrey leaf when you plant, I think the idea is the comfrey leaf has accumulated potash.

Thanks I asked chat gpt ;)

I never understand why people make such big changes, and put all their eggs in one basket, alternate rows of prune and grape would so the tric

@@P3Permaculture Anyone not from BigAg (which is always monocultured!) agrees, but except for the ever-drier & ever-hotter Californian Climate Changes, this simplest switch from a tree to a vine seems to harden your clear-eyed observations. My parents managed/worked a tiny but intensively broad Market Garden that I am going to try and move towards permaculture. I am starting with willow trees to shade my newbie chicken flock.

@@eliseville Excelent choice, they dont like competiton in the beginning so i use a thick 6-8" of wood chips ( max 30% evergreen) choose a shrub willow as they can grow really fast and max out at 15 feet also you can cut them and make really high quality wood chips with them

@@P3Permaculture Got a huge pile of 100% evergreen chips, but no woodchipper. Is there any easier way to cut my chips with maybe shredded cardboard? Straw?

@@eliseville you can cut them with as much other mulch material as possible and I would say let them compost in a pile for a year. But if you have no other mulch, you can still use it and when you get some more hardwood mulch start mixing it in. I highly recommend against cedar mulch especially dark coloured , it was credited for catching fire in a drought in NS and burning down a condo.

I know tons of farmers market people who still use tillage and plastic mulch and pest moss. We don’t use any of those and strongly recommend against it! I ask have a big vermicompost in the basement I can’t wait to get a black soldier fly setup in a greenhouse once we find land. It’s hard to scratch the surface of these subjects in a short video like this. You never can do it justice. No dig all the way!

It is always a risk on comments the vultures are always circling!! We still have snow on the ground because we had a berry snowy winter and well climate change has done away with the norm which would be no more snow by Easter for us. We are in hardiness zone 4 where are you? Secondly microclimates are simply using the different material types and reflectivity or solar gain to change the local climate conditions. So 2 hours more sun makes more snow melt, add a black metal wheelbarrow which black absorbs more light then white snow so it gets warmer and radiates it to the surrounding area. Meaning that those small changes makes it melt faster there and then let’s the crocus’s bloom. Hope that was clear

@@P3Permaculture yeah, that's pretty clear. Did you do something to reflect light into that area or is it just the reflectiveness of the snow hitting the heatsink in general? I'm somewhere between some 8 and 7b, so I don't foresee having snow to wrestle with, but if I can get an extra month of growth with this idea I wouldn't be mad. The other thing is that I'm vastly ignorant about gardening all around. I spent a lot of my life in the tropics so food just grows everywhere without me having to do anything about it. So, it's early in my learning process... Just in case I sound dumb. It's because I don't know.

Because of the way our landlord has the cedar hedges this area gets just a few more hours of sun naturally, The point in this clip was to observe microclimates and then we can make them better. We just left the wheel barrow there by accident and it helped. you might still have snow but not like we do, and either way microclimates are still golden to get you late pen, or those fruits that are just on the limits of your zone.

It’s so important to setup soakage pits, and waste water mana gênent and heavy mulch to maximize the water efficiency. Watering from the top is a stop gap measure that we use when in extreme drought and still we only do it at night. Get yourself some soaker hose, and a pile of wood chips and setup a timer to irrigate at night and it should be a good start. Also join us on April 12th for our free fundamentals of regenerative gardening course online! www.p3permaculture.ca/event/fundamentals-of-regenerative-gardening-with-permaculture-live-online-free-46/register

I am so happy you found us! For me when I discovered passive water management it was game changer! Thinking of a garden as an Extention of the ecosystem makes so much sense and really helps the productivity. I would be happy to send you some more resources if you need specifics. Don’t hesitate to ask any questions! It’s my pleasure to answer to my best ability.

right! And i can hear his little voice in my head, like you cannot see me i am invisible, this is not the toad you are looking for....

@@P3Permaculture lol

That is great! So many people plant a few apples and pears and put all the same cultivar, but finding the early ones and late ones really spreads out the harvesting labour and also the work of canning and baking and all that!

Yeah it’s great cuz you can set it up and forget. I have these pods I use now for air layering, I’m testing them out and so far they work great too. Need some more tests

It is my pleasure, I believe that if we all knew a little more permaculture and ecological living then the planet and its peoples would be more abundant!

@@P3Permaculture very true

This has been for me the single most impactful element is meeting other people who are enacting positive change on the ground with a permaculture design approach. I think the next video might be about the top ways we can apply permaculture at home and in the garden to adapt and fight climate change.

It was hard to keep it short, but I think more short videos are better then big long ones. Next video coming out soon.

Thanks ! I would love to . Just need more support so we can get better editing. I managed with that one but I need a professional ;)

If you like and subscribe I will be that much closer to being the JMF of permaculture :)

@@P3Permaculture don't worry about editing. It's the information that is important!

Yeah indeed! I find it is one of the benefits of attending a permaculture intensive course and living at the farm for a week or two you really connect with a whole new crew of permaculture minded people

Thank you! Cheers!

@@P3Permaculture Hey Graham - just joined your lower tier option to support ya.

Glad you think so!

Completely agree, we need to rethink our basic systems of living. Luckily it’s not that complicated

Thank you! Cheers!

@@P3Permaculture I have seen a version of it at another time, it is always a good idea to redo one's curriculum. Mine is at version 3.0 and sometimes I think of doing 4.0. I will eventually make time for it, the topic is endlessly fascinating and you know your compost.

Did you see all the other parts of the series?

I appreciate that so much, I will list it and make it available. What do you think about my latest video, o have started trying to do the edits for TH-cam myself. Not sure if it’s a hit or miss

Merci Genvieve, mon réponse et en retard pas mal mais vos commentaires sont très apprécier. On a en fait une nouveaux pdc a Wakefield été 2023. Et aussi pour tout nos étudiant du passer on a une nouveaux section en ligne. Contacter nous pour avoir access

Thank you so much Kathy, I am so grateful for your support and to know my work has such an impact for people in these times of transition.

Sorry I missed this. I used a combo of winter rye, fall oats, Austrian winter pea, clover, daikon tillage radish and alfalfa

Sorry for the late reply , you can use any seed spreader, and if they are pèlerines then the birds and ants won’t eat them. There are seed spreaders that attach to a tractor or a arc etc

Thanks

It has only grown as of late, and the videos are getting better finally

@@P3Permaculture Good to keep up

Thanks we’re working on it. Video editing was never your strong point but the latest video I’m quite proud of.

We have way better audio now
