Disher Does It
United States
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 17 ม.ค. 2012
Sharing our experiences in Southwest Florida working to convert a sugar-sand hill into something that will make things grow and thrive to feed the family without feeding the bugs...too much. We utilize the organic approach whenever possible, especially when the final product gets fed to the family.
We are working with citrus, avocados, fig, peaches, dragon fruit, neem, moringa, cranberry hibiscus, chaya, katuk, papaya, everglades tomato, blackberry, raspberry, onions, melons, assorted greens, various sweet potatoes, pineapple, purple yams, spineless cactus, radishes, carrots, as well as many varieties of edible subtropical plants and normal garden vegetable plants and herbs. We also have several native plant species and are always looking for good pollinators.
We raise chickens and ducks for eggs, meat, bug control, and fertilizer. Composting worms and black soldier flies are a vital part of the compost and fertilization system.

YM2000 Seat Modification
มุมมอง 6K9 ปีที่แล้ว
This video shows what I did to replace/modify the seat on the Yanmar YM 2000 tractor. The spring modification makes the tractor much more comfortable to run for long periods of time. The draft control lever tension bolt had to be modified so it would not hit the the new seat. These mods were cheap and easy and make a great tractor just a little better.

Chicken Processing
มุมมอง 3079 ปีที่แล้ว
Chicken processing. We sent 32 chickens to freezer camp on Saturday. The total weight was 182.5 pounds of cleaned chickens bagged in the freezer. The average weight per bird was 5.7 pounds and the cost was $1.53 per pound for organic chicken, what a great deal. It is good to know what has (has not) been put into what the family will be eating. The cost was for the day old chicks and feed. We we...
Pool Cleaning
มุมมอง 27K9 ปีที่แล้ว
This is a video of how to clean a pebble tec pool, the easy way. This saves a ton of money on chemicals. The process took half a day of pressure washing and a day/night of filling and only $50 in water costs. Well worth the money.

Three week old chicks
มุมมอง 4799 ปีที่แล้ว
The meat chickens for this year are finally out in the chicken tractor. We have 34 left to raise. They will be living a great life on fresh grass all the time, enjoying the fresh air, and chasing bugs. This is the third time we will raise our own meat chickens for the year. It is a great opportunity to teach our children that food does not magically show up in the store all wrapped in plastic. ...
The ducks are getting big....fast.
มุมมอง 799 ปีที่แล้ว
The ducks outgrew the brooder and are spending the night out in the chicken tractor without the light. We got them a week ago and they have changed so much already. They love splashing in the pool. I can not wait to make a bigger pool for them. Filmed 03/01/2015 Check out my other videos, like, subscribe, and comment. Thanks for watching.
Three day old chicks
มุมมอง 1399 ปีที่แล้ว
We ordered 50, one day old chicks...the meat chickens for this year. A friend is taking 15 of them so we will have 35 left to raise. They will have a great life then off to freezer camp. These are the best tasting chickens; all natural, after the brooder they are raised in tractors so they are on fresh grass all the time, and no water or chemicals added to the meat. This is the third time we wi...
The new crew
มุมมอง 329 ปีที่แล้ว
Here is the newest addition to the crew. The feed store had these little ducklings and we could not resist picking up a few. We have been wanting ducks for a while (more me, but it sounds better when I say we). I had not purchased them through a hatchery because the minimum order is 15 ducklings. We will see how these little ones grow up and maybe purchase some more. We do not know the breed or...
Trimming peach trees
มุมมอง 1929 ปีที่แล้ว
Peach trees all trimmed up with fruit thinned. You can grow peaches in Southwest Florida! There are several varieties that are considered "low chill". I would say to plant a few varieties and see how each one does. This video shows what a properly trimmed peach tree looks like with a description of culling fruit to maximize production. On the line between Zone 9b and 10a. Our local micro climat...
Everglades Tomato
มุมมอง 1.9K9 ปีที่แล้ว
The unstoppable Everglades Tomato. This plant came up in the yard and just keeps providing us with delicious tomatoes. This is the variety that the Indians grew so many years ago. The skin is very thin so it does not ship well. I believe that is why it is not commercially viable. The tomatoes have that "big" tomato flavor everyone loves. On the line between Zone 9b and 10a.

Moringa in the winter

Moringa in the winter!! Our moringa tree has taken off after a short cold snap. It must think that winter is over. New branches are shooting up off of the old ones. We are getting some great leaf production, but I want more seed pods so I can get more trees growing. On the line between Zone 9b and 10a. Our local micro climate seems to be a bit on the cool side.

Great information, thank you sir
Does anyone know what the recommended PSI is for pebbletech?
Watching this, I realized that my shift is 180 out. Now I can fix it. Thank you.
Thank man!!
Thank goodness I'll see if this is the problem tomorrow.
My roll pin broke off and went missing, I had no idea what part was supposed to go there, thank you!
meh just drain it down and do a light pressure washing. Water is expensive dude AND you can't do this everytime to you need to clean the pool. Its cost prohibitive
In winter only leaves no pods
Why high windy
Okay, I've had my Pebble Tec pool for 17 years and every year I have to drain it, power wash it, and restart. So what I have is several stains and recurring algae. Green is easy to get rid of, black/brown....not so much! Advise??
ensure your chemicals are balanced to maintain a healthy level of chlorine--and natural UV does the job along with bi-weekly brushing. Eventually the stains will bleach or fade out.
Did you drain it completely and pressure wash? Or only a little bit?
It would be better if you told us what state you live in, because latitude is key with Moringa.
Please How old the Moringa tree start giving the fruit ? need more tips on growing the Moringa . I will be appreciated and thanks for your information .
Just purchased a YM2000. Any suggestions on where to obtain a hard or pdf copy of the owners manual?
Save a bundle on chemicals and drain the pool every three years
Pebble surfaces are. Great places for algae to hide and grow quartz plaster finishes for the win
Can you please tell me how you did it from start to finish
Did you drain the pool. All the way.
Thank you very much... I've been looking for this information. Best Regards, Ted
great idea
They can be easily propagated from cuttings.
Great Part 2 / Part II for YM2000 Thanks
Thank you for the YM2000 video. We need more of these. Thanks again.
Thank you for the video. Please share more if you still have the YM. Best Regards.
Question, where did you buy your seat?
Peach trees are a lot of fun and such Delicious Fruit
Nice setup! I just bought one of these tractors YM2000 I’m going to have to work on the lift lever it has no bracket so it won’t stay up unless I hold it so the brush cutter just drops.
My tropic beauty is doing better than my Florida Prince and they were planted at the same time
that's great, i will give them a try this weekend.....thank you
I'm a new sub I liked your video. It looks like that tomato is doing quite well. :) Thanks for sharing :)
How did you get the new selector back in? Did you cut the new one?
When do you pick the leaves to eat
how is it going ,had a question bought a small 7 inch plant I was told to grow this plant indoors/does this plant need light or can it survive with out light ?
It needs light and warmth
Thank you for sharing your video. Just subscribed to your channel.
where (City and State?) is the above plant grown? Will you send me four seeds? I live in San Jose CA
Moringa seeds might be.in.kitizawa seed company in Oakland.
Moringa contains a lot of medicinal value , thank :)

FYI, you can use the pressure washer underwater, so it isn't always necessary to drain the pool. We blast ours once a year.
Cool, I wondered that. Thanks
Thank you for the information, uou have no idea, I truly appreciate it
Thanks for the video! I've used this technique for years on my dogs and family members. Even my kids can do it! I'm squeamish, so I cover my spinning finger with a tissue or rubber glove. When I try to explain this method to people, they look at me like I have two heads. The ticks are out in force now; the kids are coming in from recess with ticks on them! The school issued a warning and attached the CDC method of using tweezers to remove it :( I shared your video on the parent Facebook page :)
Using an allen is a great idea. Almost everyone has them as opposed to a punch set. For reference, if people only have access to metric it's an M5x40. or a 3/16 by 1 9/16 standard.
Thank you.
Can you let me on the break down I need to replace the high and low gear. I may have to do 8th gear too and the detents
What part fl u are iñ
Hello sir I just picked up a ym2000 I'm fixing. It won't stay in high or 8th gear. Do you have manuals I might get copy of? I order a DVD on eBay of the ym 195 and ym240 was all I can find I was told it was close but they aren't shop manuals. Plus can you let me know what parts. Ill have to take apart to see what is what. I just got brakes working and new filters and belt. New tires and paint back rims and transmission to axle. I need to fix hood and some thing forward then paint. Trying to get it read to take out of state on some acreage when we sell our house now. My email is knbdezign@hotmail.com

Would it be okay to keep pruning to 7’ high for easy pickings? Thanks
#Lofendialof- search the lady from. " moringa for life ". She has a Moringa Farm in California for 20+ yrs. In the Fall, after her Last Harvest, she Cuts her Trees Down...Really Down.... like "inches high" .. Then she plants the thicker limbs and Makes More Moringa trees... Those limbs, when they Root will Now have all the Nutritional/growth benefits that comes with the Age of The Mother Tree it was Cut from... look at her list and start with the oldest to newest...
Was it very difficult to replace the gear? I have a YM 2000 also and it needs the high range gear replaces.
NICE!!!! Can't wait to plant mine and watch it grow like your's.😳
Where do you live? I live in Texas, and the freezes here kill the Moringa.
Take them inside in the winter.
