    Great job. I noticed tons of heat coming out of our goat house bedding in the dead of the Manitoba winter. So the composts are really producing lots of heat.

    I have so many questions! Do you have a website or how do I get info on how to set this up?
    Do you get mice?
    How do you keep the temperature stable?
    What are all the water barrels for? Cooling, watering or both?
    Do you get insect problems
    Is there enough sun during Dec/January?
    Where/how do you get an acre of 5’ deep wood chips?
    Does the decomposing straw, grass and leaves stink?
    Stop laughing, I’m sure the answers are some where but I’ve gone down the rabbit hole.
    I’ll stop for now but I have more questions.

      @@georgetaylor9154 the trees seem to grow out of it and hasn’t effected the overall production. The best idea is to power wash the entire orchard. Is an aphid issue and residue left behind. Would gently wash it off the leaves with water outside scrubbing it off. Then neem oil the leaves if your citrus trees. That is awesome you are growing citrus in Maine. Amazing 🤩

      @@jerrynote2405 good question. I have been amazed we haven’t had humidity issues. I believe all the greenery of the trees sucks in the moisture. We don’t water at all from October to May and in the summer we have windows open 24/7 from April to October. No fans or heaters are needed. The trees are all lush and beautiful. Have a new video we will be releasing showing this in the middle of summer. Thanks for watching.

      @@sarahpauline4904 good question. We have 20 hobbit hole greenhouses on five farms in metro Salt Lake Wasatch Front of almost three million people. Utah has a catch and release program to encourage cat adoption of feral kitties. Works like magic and each farm has at least one kitty. They are all fixed and become tame like pets. No mice 🐭 have never seen a snake inside these devices. Before the kitties we had issues and had to use poison which they don’t even make any longer.
