I recently made a video on the importance of Supporting species ( Nitrogen fixers) for the food forest Happy you made this video ..Thank you cool to see the bamboos I know stinking Toe ... Thank you
I love your sense of humor. I don’t watch many people who don’t live in zone 7 or lower out of hatred and jealousy. (I bought your pushing the zone book btw and I try but still) zone 6 … no mangos for me. But you, you stick around my feed because I love you.
I’ve opted for ice cream bean and pigeon pea as my backyard nitrogen fixers. In my limited space I’m always searching for edible or multiple use fixers. Might fit a poinsettia for a splash of color, as the seeds are free and available.
Here in Hawaii we have Leucaena leucocephala growing in the more arid regions of the islands. It's commonly called "Haole Koa" which I presume refers less to white people and more so to it being a foreigner in general. But good stuff all around DtG! Loving the fever dream cuts in-between the wealth of knowledge you give!
Leucaena leucocephala grows here in the Arizona Mojave desert 10B and withstands 120+ degree temperature and down past 32 for those interested in this tree.l
Recommending one of the most invasive trees in the world to plant in your garden Haole Koa probably not a good idea. Here in Hawaii it's a major problem it is taking over many native landscapes I would really rethink recommending this especially planting the seeds in your garden the seeds are viable for like 60 years and grow extremely fast.
The main lesson I have taken from this is new method of burn scar art production. I'm thinking of opening up a shop between the tattoo and piercing parlors. I figure one stop shopping's gotta be a big selling point, right? 💉🔥🧯🧷
Whenever I need to identify a specific plant which is one too many times , I will take a photo of the vegetation then email it to the Charlotte County University of Florida chapter and they have been doing a fantastic job in identifying it , they have a 100% score in identifying just about everything I send them , I'm sure that any and all universities in your state or locality will have some sort of program or a local chapter that could help identify plants , at the most they want to know where is it at .
Do elderberries in Florida have any value as a chop and drop? I have a small section that grows like crazy and use it for that. Or should I pull it out completely and replace with something else?
@@davidthegood Understood. I know you're just building an infrastructure and getting as much food going as you can. It's looking great! Btw- Their manure is doing wonders in my food forest!
Got notified late, will pray for Natasha and her husband. Enjoy these walking teaching tours, thank you : )

Very educational 👍🏼 Thanks for providing the Latin names verbally and as captions! 😁

Thanks David! That was super interesting. I'm glad you made it out of there alive!
I do a lot of foraging for compost materials but I don't have a forest. I did find wild goji berries, yucca seeds n desert willow

You should try the Moringa tree. I have that one
@@msdramamusic Unfortunetly Moringa does not fix nitrogen., if only! :)
Very informative. Thanks David! Now I just need to find the zone 3 equivalents....

Inga Laurina would be a great name in your next novel. The femme fatale of course
That is a really good idea
Excellent tips thanks. Recognised a few from here in Thailand 👍
Awesome video man, wish I lived there !
This was great! I recognized quite a few species I have on my own property. Yay for more chop and drop!!
That was very helpful. Thank you DTG.

Great video
I use the earpod tree for chop n drop. Plus golden rain tree, deep roots, and mexican sunflower and inkberry. Central Florida.
Earpod is excellent!
What is the biggest bean pod in the world? Can you eat the wild ginger? I want some stinken toe fruit. I wish my dad was like David the Good.

What are your thoughts on carob as nitrogen fixers ?

David the good how do you find these rental awesome places to rent?
But are these edible? Or only use for nitrogen fixers?just in case someone comes along and tries to cook them
Thanks David! Is Mimosa púdica a nitrogen fixer? It looks similar to the albizia.
Yes
Awesome! I’ll let it go crazy then.
@@davidthegood4 years ago you had the answer I now need :)
love thag space . .
Where can i buy those big bean plants?
Thanks for the info! :)
Unboxing xD very cool
can i say that Nitrogen fixers are those trees which can grow very fast and be used in Chop & Drop?
Not quite
I Did not know LEUCAENA LEUCOCEPHELA is a nitrogen fixer!
Do elderberries in Florida have any value as a chop and drop? I have a small section that grows like crazy and use it for that. Or should I pull it out completely and replace with something else?
Yes they can be used for biomass chop and drop.
@@msdramamusicand medicine!!
The Jackaranda tree has a large bean pod. Why is it not a nitrogen fixer?
Because God made it just to mess with us.
Is the mimosa and its seeds a nitrogen fixer?
Mimosa fixes nitrogen, yes.
Speaking of goats.. When are you going to get some?
Not in the plans right now

It is great stuff.
... why is there a creepy doll head stuck on a pole?!
What? Where?
Have you been affected by the storms and floods?
I'm new and he says tropics but can anyone tell me where he is?
I have not shared my precise location
Dang I was gonna come steal some nitrogen fixers...lol not. Understandable though
If I remember correctly that bean pod stinks .
It taste powdery and slightly sweet though so it's all good.
