Wonderful thankyou~ takes Guild to the next level ~:-)
Thanks for the tour. Have you tried panning the sediment for heavy metals like Gold? I know you said it is topsoil but I see gravel so that means alluvial gold especially in the waterfall and the inside corners of the S-Bend. Must be nice to have a natural sluice. Otherwise it is amazing what you have done.
Ecuadors rivers have lots of gold. The math is as follows. A neighbour spent a week clearing a section of our river. Moving all the boulders out of the way and used a shovel to pan the sand. End result two guys a full week 10 Gramms of gold. With primitive equipment. Tough work. With better equipment the results might double!
Looks really Nice.
Thank you so much. Waiting for the food forest part to fill in completely!
boo audio
@@AaronKeatingLanc3 100 % I really screwed up. I moved the audio volume from 100% to 500 % and it killed parts of the video ! It sounded good in the editing app but once up Loaded it went bad. Going to try to figure out how to do the issue in TH-cam .
Good job! Didnt you put some reinforcement, it can be break . Very nice looking rock
Thank you! The cement is loaded with polypropylene fibres. It also doesn’t freeze here in Ecuador.
Hollow cardboard forms are better to use than sand.
@@Nova-m8d try it out the sand is very effective. I like using cardboard when I use a mortar type mix as the first coat. The bought mortar mix in a bag sticks better to the cardboard. After the mortar coat dries a bit you have a shell to apply your cement mix. I have also sprayed a mortar mix against cardboard shells works well. Wet sand is incredibly easy to sculpt I used dry sand in this video. I have adding latex to wet sand and it stays in place even better !
Also the sand fill method is a lot easier for beginners!

Will you please make a follow-up video on how to stain these? I live somewhere very dry and it would take a long time for it to grow lichen. Is the texture of the concrete potentially better for establishing epiphytes?
Yea I will stain this planter and show the process ! Has to be nice and dry for the stain job. Here in the Andes everything grows on top of each other! We’re in orchid country being right next to a national park ! So many people walk away with bags full of orchids. The secret is to making the planters with the least amount of chemicals . Cement sand Fiber and nothing else. Also rub a really good compost into all the gaps in the rough planter skin. Also please remember to water the cement planter no just the plants. The cement absorbs so much moisture and releases it after time. It is a water reserve making thick cement planters great for keeping plants moist and for growing moss. Succulents absolute love cement planters because they remove excess moisture and then release it back when the plants dry out !

thank you for the very important INFO!!! i am American i wanting to buy some property in Ecuador for commercial use and personal use commercial use on the coast what's your thoughts on coastal commercial property?
Would look into the government incentives. If you bring manufacturing jobs to a province the government helps in many ways. The cost is so incredibly hot. It depends totally on the type of business you want the building for and where you’re going to sell the finished product.

Your channel questions whether we (humans) are animals? Ah, okay, guess I'll stop commenting now because don't think you'd understand much anyway.
Again this statement attacks me nothing else. Rendering this comment useless ! The question if we are inclusive with everything that surrounds us or not is incredibly relevant at the moment . These cane fires are a perfect example of selfish human behaviour! Totally not necessary.
Assuming YOU came to Ecuador to be a 'Paradise Builder' and then you judge the culture and people around you?
This statement makes absolutely no sense! Judging people? Human behaviour has to be accountable anywhere in the world! Ecuador isn’t special !
Why make assumptions if you cannot verify the truth. Why attack?
So, YOU 'suffer' because of the smoke? What about people who need to put food on the table by growing sugar cane? How insensitive can you be?
Seriously ? Not asking them to stop growing sugar cane ! It is such a waste to burn the cane. More valuable left whole !
This video is very sensitive to the farmer's. It is inviting solutions to decrease the destruction and improve profitability for the farmers. Not sure why your are in attack mode, when you haven't listened carefully. Be part of the solution.
So, YOU, a gringo, decides to judge the Ecuadorian people and government? Fool!!!
@@darrellandsondraholden9457 Not a Gringo ! Not judging anyone. Burning sugar cane is a big issue !
The video is very diverse and to the point ?

Ευχαριστώ γιά την ενημέρωση! Θα καλλιεργώ στον κήπο μου!
Your garden allows you complete control . You know everything that is going into growing your food !
@@Buildingenjoyment thank you!
Looks like you and the soil are one. 🎉🎉🎉
I'm of the opinion that the more we mimic nature, the closer we come to being successful with gardening and healing. Buy food that will rot and eat it before it rots.
Thanks for the example, and it sounds like you may have run into some extremist “no-till” people haha. Your method here is gaining popularity in the no-till community as the “one-till” version of no-till - till once to get air, water, and organic matter into lifeless soil and then start a “no-till” garden on top of that with the goal to minimize soil disturbance, keep it covered and planted etc
Year three the no till gardener has place 3 x4 inches of compost on top of their beds. If I placed 12 inches of great compost on top of my original soil I could grow anything ! Like you stated in year one I give my soil a complete (aggressive) makeover also I dig in the compost . Year two there isn’t a lot to do anyways just place the four inches of new compost and grow. Year three my soil is so fluffy workable when I add the next 4 inches. My vegetables have 4 feet+ to send their roots into. Year three I would do an Alfalfa cover crop cut the heads off and plant vegetables in between. This process would leave any no till gardener in the dust. They would be at maybe 10 inches of soil depth.
Another life lesson learned...thank you 🙂🌱🍃
Logic and common sense are very powerful tools especially when your garden has the ability to show results. Why don’t the no till gardeners grow asparagus instead of lettuce?
I attempted to purchase the neighboring property, a small house that would have required demolition. I offered the owner $40,000, which was above its market value, to expand my lot. However, they countered with $70,000. When I inquired about the reason for the higher price, the owner mentioned wanting to allocate $10,000 each to her seven children. Consequently, I decided not to proceed with the purchase.
Oh yes! The real value of the property is almost irrelevant when a foreigner buys the property. The owner presumes you can look after the kids. It is so strange to experience their bizarre logic. They will come back just be patient.

In other words I and my fellow like-minded population will surrender to your higher intellect owned way of life if you will just free us to become like an earth nurturing human ant colony generating wealth for our wealthy overlords and keep your freaking Mass money spending tourists on the outside of our peaceful Earth nurturing borders
Voted on and agreed upon lists - is the way a non-hierarchical & sustainable village population should go forward - at nurturing the Earth for their provision. And and the village-population-maintained way-of-life must maintain a non-expandable border victory planted with various varieties of bamboo as the main building material which incidentally is also edible. But please note we will still have to sell the surplus of what our way of life produces outside our village borders because people with excessively higher intellect and money empowered mouths. Still do and always will require tax revenue. And we can give them Earth grown organic and healthy food as well. But only outside our village Way of Life and they can come and visit or simply watch via CCTV cameras of our village propagation areas and surveilled borders. So that anyone can see that without personalities talking to the camera this will be a very simple way of making provision for a earth nurturing way of life
Excellent advice since we've been divided into individuals the only hope is to find time in between the money making which funds are money empowered overlords. And try to nurture just one little piece at a time as (one individual without enough time) serving the higher intellect can unless he has plenty of under'ing servants type to accomplish the toil for for one's diabolically book learned wizard with words. But I still say it would be better to disconnect to the highest degree possible from the money empowered overlords and have a village population helping each other accomplished nurturing the Earth properly and equally with no intelligence-hierarchy for their provision. So if you would like to inquire about this concept non-hierarchical, Earth nurturing for provision, way of life: the conversation awaits. Although please be advised we will still have to generate wealth for our wealthy overlords. It's just that we would no longer need personal wealth other than the food and building materials we produce on site. Also note that such a pre-designed way of life requires the use of the internet and computer equipment to assemble and pre-vett our spiritually (or in your case (scientifically-compatible village population
It would be a far more sustainable building material to use bamboo framing locally sourced thickly planted bamboo border of the retirement from capitalism village Way of Life. You keep promoting zinc plated Earth-over toxify'ing for the money - over consuming nature- crap like that & the future generations of the world will have no where left on the face of the Earth to plant predominantly free of charge provisions while sustainably nurturing the Earth instead of the over-wealthiest over-stocked banks funded activities Shirley snuffing out what's left of a sustainable nature of provision😢. All for the excessive governments only way offered (money funded Way of Life) promotions of Comerial'istc+Capitalism: with all due respect.
sooo...what is YOUR home framed in, plz? I've been Design/Self-Building ECOhomes in FL since '79. A certified Permaculturist since '85. I would NEVER suggest "bamboo", for a zillion good reasons. Seriously, don't combine your political-hysteria with sensible construction techniques! My latest ECOhome in SW FL, USA is an elevated wood frame, and after 3 direct Hurricanes (Ian,....) my only loss was 3 cap shingles. 8/2024's electric bill was $48. My raised beds are ready for Fall Planting, and Fruit Orchard is full of Guava & Papaya. Plz...let us all know of how YOU have created your ECOhome. Plz, without the political-babble. Hurricanes, Earthquakes, & Floods do NOT...read, anyway 🙂
@@antoniiocaluso1071 I'd be happy to have a conversation with you but I know that's not the way your money made world of educated in high intellect was designed at this point of a world full of money making gimmicks such as permaculture
Oh sorry I forgot to mention I live in a 1970 double wide mobile which I purchased from My five sisters from my mother's estate. But I would be grateful if you would hear me out about my home / and way of life design idea
Do me a favour and visit a bamboo processing facility that isn’t ultra modern! They drill holes from the thickest part to the thinnest then dip it in copper azole and tebuconazole for three days. The off gassing is basically forever. I love straight walls with beautiful finishes. Bamboo is too unstable and unpredictable. The bamboo burns like kindling.
A combination of 2 x4 interior portion walls… 2x 6 (double between units ) and 2 x8 for roof members. (Thick gauge steel studs) we have 5 units and a kitchen and office above the kitchen. Insulation batts everywhere. We never wanted to pay for heat again nor listen to any external noise . 5 x 60 square meters per unit. Kitchen 40 and office 40 square meters total steel stud bill was 12.000 US. Very reasonable since we bought the thicker gauge. I think it was .22 The 2 x 8 are even thicker for the span calculation!
Amazing! I might try growing jicama next year.
Jícama tastes amazing too. The texture is grainy and loaded with moisture. Very different taste from other root veggies. Great for snacking on. Eating it raw is delicious.
Wow amazing!! 💚🌱
your VERY-right!!! say it LOUD, say it proud! :-) ...from this old North Italiano who immigrated to the Bronx, NYC looong-ago. Trust me, there was NO "gold in the streets"!! buona fortuna, kids!
Everyone says 'man and nature...' as though man is separate from nature. Man over here...superior of course, and nature...wild, naked, and still largely untapped, over there! The greater likelyhood is that we are all...plants, humans, insects, animals, water...multiple different lifeforms that are the constituents of a larger lifeform we call planet earth.

Do you have a balcony? I live in an urban area, although I have a gardenI I throw flower seed around the bases of street trees. You can scatter seed in spring when it rains more often on any dirt you see. They will grow into beautiful plants.
