There are no failures,only learning experiences.
Came here to say this. If your failure helps someone succeed then it is not a failure.
👍
Spot on, no one on earth ever learned anything from never making a mistake.
With happy little trees, even.
I love how you decided to share this even if it was not a complete success!
Love it, Ben
Your channel is the best kept secret on TH-cam! You are worth a million views! I'm sharing!
When you're loading the wood into the drum, make sure you have pieces that are more consistent with each other. You had varying widths of the wood which means that the skinnier sticks turned into charcoal while the wider sticks didn't all turn. If you keep the widths all the same in each batch, I think you'll have more success.
Agreed & same type of wood I would think. I'm definitely gonna try this. Has to enrich my poor soil
Consider making a trench in your gardens and bury the logs that didn’t burn up. Easy hugulkultur. ❤️
Also, check out the current prices for biochar! You could sell it in gallon bags for more profit than expected.
That is what the Hollar Homies (TH-cam community) are all about!! 100k strong!!
👍
......and growing !
A couple of California families now living near us in S E Tennessee have been watching your channel and Jason from Sow The Land and are getting ready to search for land here. Fellowship is their life line and everyone wants to live and work with like minds. So yes you guys are helping people make the BIGGEST most exciting plans of their life. Blessings. ❤️🇺🇸🌱
Indeed. They reach me in northern Ireland too🥰😍🥰🤩
Would love an update on the orchard and berries planted.
Hi Hollars. Been watching you guys since you moved and really enjoy what you put out there. Congrats on the 100k mark. Keep doing what you're doing. Love the idea of making my own bio-char/charcoal. Please do a follow-up on your next attempt!
👏👏CONGRATULATIONS 👋👋
🌟100,000 Subscribers 🌟
💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫
Your son already has a Western North Carolina accent!!!
“Ders charcoal don der.”
🤣😂🙌🏼❤️👊🏻🙏🏼🔥
Ben the ones that don't work may get more views. Congratulations on 100K.
Congratulations on 100 thousand!!!
Thanks for the video! You don't have to wait to do something "special" we like just watching you walk around with the animals. If you don't want to talk, the music is nice but we'd like an update on all the animals. To you, it may seem mundane but for us; we love it.
That is cool at 66 years old I just learned how to make charcoal👍👏👏 stay safe stay strong stay healthy god bless and enjoy life✌❤💪👨🍳🎅🚌👍
You're on the right track.....been using the pit method for 30 some years. It helped our clay soil to become the richest and crumbling soil ever!!!!! It didn't take long, just kept composting the kitchen scraps with fallen leaves, adding the biochar, in between layers of the clay soil mix of the scraps and leaves. It worked the first spring season and the fall season was even better. We have added it around the drip line of our fruit trees. What a difference that made in fruit production! The black and blue berry bushes love the biochar the most. Have fun and keep sharing your videos. Blessings upon you and all your family!
Would love to see the animals munching on the charcoal tree limbs ! 😊👍💕💕💕
Congratulations Holler family on reaching 100k on TH-cam!! Bravo! You are an inspiration to us. You keep it real!
Love fun projects like that, spending time with kids is the best. Great way to show your kids how to start a project and know its a work in progress. Over time they get to see how to over come problems by working at it. Like a science project. Congrats on 100K, Bless your Homestead
I plan to use biochar for my rainwater catchment systems filter. It can be used for 3 years before it needs to be back flushed to clean the system. But never needs to be changed according to the professor who created the system I want to use.
Yes, all the farm animals can use the biochar in one form or another or the ashes.
And as you have stated it can be added to the compost or put directly on the garden. Just be very mindful to use a tiny bit at a time.
Congrats on the 100K subscribers! I knew you would get there very soon. It would have happened sooner if you hadn't needed to take a break from TH-cam or this time slow way down on publishing more vlogs. Hope you will soon be back to normal and getting a few vlogs a week. We all miss you.
Good afternoon Hollars, from Waikato, New Zealand. It's always a good day when you upload a video. I get great enjoyment out of watching your experiments, no matter how they turn out! The combination of a curious mind + vision + plus using what you can find = genius.
@Homesteading NZ G'day neighbour! 🙂
I have a small piece of charcoal that my great grandfather (died in 1935) burned. It looks similar to the chunk your son held up at 17:24. Really interesting project, thank you very much for sharing it!
Congratulations on 100 thousand. I love watching your family and all the things you do. I’ll be sad if you ever stop filming
I got a “bio charlie” from amazon and use it in our wood stove. Let it go thru two firings and have about 3 gallons of biochar. If the wood you put in the device is the same diameter you will have much success. Another way to make biochar on a grand scale is dig a trench load with wood, same size, light and when the smoke goes from white to yellow you have biochar. Congratulations on 100k subscribers...
You’re so smart and willing to experiment! Way to go!
Congratulations on the 100k, well deserved ❤️❤️
Congrats on the 100k subscribers! You so deserve this milestone. People love how hard you guys work on your dream, and the extra work of sharing with us.
Congratulations! You have an amazing channel and an amazing family....much love and prayers💖🙏
Happy Thanksgiving GOD BLESS. LOVE YOU GUYS
It's a bit slower but we used 3 stacked semi tractor rims and welded together and a 55 gallon drum lid fits right on the rims edge with a pretty good seal.
Outside rim was a big tractor rim that left about a foot bigger around the semi rims like you had.
Cut sections of arcs with radius of semi rims of flat-scrap metal and after feeding it and it cooked couple hours give it a good shot of water and put the arcs around the outside rim overlapping each and the semi rims and smother the outside tractor rim fire. Then just let it cool down as steam smothers it.
The thickness of the tractor rims will hold a LOT of heat and cook the wood down with no flame once it gets to temperature. Leave the bung open so any steam moisture and smoke can get out. Steam in a closed inside container will slow down coaling. Steam and smoke coming out bung hole will prevent oxygen from coming in the hole as it heats up.
We got a lot more charcoal than ash with rim method vs drum method. Also wood stacked horizontal in reversed layers with little space between logs inside tractor rims helped the heat fully circulate inside the tractor rims around all the sticks, all the way to the center of the stack. Worked best with 4'-5" sticks. Smaller pieces will charcoal and fall to the bottom and sit there.
Rims make a great fire pit too and radiate heat from the rims walls out. You'll never burn them out.
Check around with local scrappers and they always have damaged rims that can't be used on the road any longer and pick them up for scrap weight.
Yall have came a long way. You look happy. Congratulations on everything.
What a great project for you and the boys :0) congratulations on reaching 103K
Dear one's so glad you are now moving beyond 1k - don't forget to flash some of your beautiful property- some of us city people just long to see the picture!!!
Congratulations on making 100k! You were one of the 2 main inspirations for my wife and I to make our own channel. Keep up the good work!
Nice! Good info! I've always wanted to make my own charcoal.
It looks like a success to me. We learned about an important process for lots of people and applications. I follow many channels and have learned so much. If I use-good. If I share-even better. So whatever experiments you are drawn to-someone else had thought about and wanted to try. Most of us don't have the land or the natural materials to use. So thanks in advance for your curiosity and work. Have a good weekend. Blessings
AWESOME on the 100k Mark, please don't change, we love The Hollars, wee-one too!!!!!
I am always learning from you guys. Thank you.
CONGRATULATIONS ON REACHING 100,000 YOU DESERVE SO MANY MORE.

Charcoal is often given orally to people that overdose to detoxify them.
It's also great for upset stomachs.
Charcoal withput the oily bits, that is. Basically biochar
I recall getting charcoal tablets in the eastern europe in the 80s for upset stomach. It always worked.
@Alina McPherson gets the bad crap out that caused the upset stomach in the first place. It also absorbs toxins & acids.
What a cool idea I didn’t know about bio char for the garden, nor did I know where or how charcoal was made.
I just found this channel last week. LOVE the content!! Thanks so much for sharing with us!
Really enjoy watching your videos
Awesome, definitely interested in seeing what happens next time and anything you do differently, thanks so much for sharing 👍👊
