You have a lot of really good information in your videos. But, in my opinion the music in the background is distracting. Would you consider removing the background music in your future videos so that it is easier to listen to what you are saying ? Thank you again for sharing your information. I look forward to watching your next upload
Tim Huffman Agreed. Lower the level of the "music" drastically or remove it completely would add to a much better experience for us subscribers.
Tim Huffman Sorry.I used a new version of my editing software. I can't seem to find a way to lower the volume on the background music track. I'll try to lower it next time. Thank you for watching.
Madodel I completely understand. Editing software can be confusing, but the option should be available somewhere. Again, you really have good information and I love hearing and seeing your beehives as well as your gardening. Thanks again for spending your time making these videos. Hope you have a good day :)
Tim Huffman check out my Top Bar Hive V.S. Langstroth Hive, Beekeeping video th-cam.com/video/LMu6WxqksdA/w-d-xo.html to see my hives
I really love this music...
Music prevents my understanding you ....but your movements and pics are. Visually teaching me..what I cannot hear because of the music....you are a Wonderful Presenter...Because I can follow by sight .😃 ❤ not just anyone is able. to communicate with body language this way...Love your accent. You are sincere Thank You 😃
Including an animated and actual illustration made the explanation very clear. Good job!
Thank you so much. We live in Myrtle Beach about a mile from the ocean, so super sandy soil that is quick to erode. There's also a fine back layer that is some sort of silt that water can't penetrate.
A nice garden landscape berm with small swales to slow the water is just what we need (on a smaller scale for our yard.)
Thanks again for this quick and easy video to get my family on board. 🎉
This is the best video i've ever seen about swales or keyline 👏👏👏. Give me a huge idea for mi syntropic lines!!! 🤩🤲🌱. If you make a swale in the middle of a line you can put in both sides plants and they will take the water 🥰👌. Excelent idea of the mulch too! Protect the evaporation. Clearly a genius 👏👏👏
Lol, crazy wedding music in the background! :)
Love your content as here in Venezuela conditions are similar and adding hay to increase evaporation by capillarity is just smart!
Nice work. Very informative and easy to follow. I really liked the 3D models of the swale plans.
Good but low the music by another half please.
I like the happy music
Make your own video without music
Don't forget to check the bitcoin address in the description. Make sure it's still accessible or replace it with one that is. Very good video! Good to see permies embrace bitcoin.
Salamat po ulit sa napaka informative na video... be looking gorward to see more... sana ma envite ko po kayo sa farm ko pag nagka farm na ako🙏
Finally I like a video and it changes to the next thousand!! 4K like right here lol
So well explained and described by the video close ups. Thank you, I live in the desert and am just starting to learn about swales and rainwater conservation methods from the watershed of mountains to the west of me.
So helpful! We will transform our urban property this summer and start growing food. We have slopes in our front and backyard, so we can do this in a small way. Thank you!
This is a nice information to your swale and your farm.thanks for sharing..
Very intelligent approach to understanding swails, berms and growing cops. Thank you!
I'm from the tropics, in the Caribbean, but I live as far and as cold from the tropics as it gets, Minnesota in the United States. Really liked this video, made it really simple to figure out how to make a swale. Much of my planting area is down hill so the water runs off without watering much, so this video is really helpful.
Very nice info and a good example of small scale swales, just what I was trying to find. Thanks good buddy. Regards from South Africa
Very Good video and explanation. It's clear both theoretically and functionally. Great job.
Thank you for the video. I like the computer animation and the live demonstration of putting mulch and straw, and especially the honeybees.
Your land looks mostly level though; for level land, is digging *any* kind of canal an effective swale, if there is no contour to follow?
I agree , I have a hearing impairment, so I use ear jacks so I can hear, removing the music would be very helpful to be able to listen to the video, of what you are teaching, great video as I’m studying permaculture, thank you for teaching,
thanx for info-love this baroque,carnival,wedding music!..refreshing change,thanx!
That is Absolutely Fantastic, amazing work, Great information
Hey, Mad ! Well Done! I'm writing from Sicily south of Italy, where I'm setting and designing patterns in order to store rainwater and preserve soil.
I would love to know how you built the natural water pool-tank, that you show at the end of the video.
Thanks a lot , enjoy your job !
Good info and good examples. I have recently started to 'Swale' my land wish I could grow Papaya here but winters are little too cold here on the Bamboo Farm in southern Oklahoma. I have clay also but different water holding capacity depending on the location on the property. Slowly building Swales by hand to provide my beautiful bamboo with water. Thank you for putting forth the effort to produce a video on the subject of Swales. How about an update on your swale project three years later?
thank you for your work in regenerative landshaping.
The background is so beautiful it looks like a movie screen
Thank you, you are the one that really opened up my mind to Permie stuff!
Your videos are very informative. A little suggestion though, please try not adding music to your videos. They are very distracting. Can hardly hear you.
Thanks
thank U, I feeling the same
I stayed for the background music-reminds me of a merry go round
Thanks a lot Made for your efforts of knowledge sharing.
Salamat kabayan.. Timing ang pagpanood ko kasi problema ko ang clay sloping area na lilipatan ko.
Very useful video thanks! Would be easier to listen without the music.
How do you prevent mosquitoes in the water that collects ?
Great Simple explanation. Thank you!
Very informative video, thank you. Do you have issues with mosquitos with all that stagnant water? I fear doing something similar near my home for that reason.
Very informative video. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you
Thank you for sharing! I have my own Swales preparing now
Thanks for the video. Hope you have a good growing year.
Really nice, I will try that
Great video...Thank you! Could you please lower or turn off the music so that I can hear/understand you better. Also, do you have to worry about mosquitoes with the pond water. Thanks so much. I'm gonna try this today.
I see you already answered my questions re: music and mosquitoes. Thank you! :)
Very good video. Very informative
Thank you for sharing! I rather like a more natural approach to terracing and water catchment. Two questions: do you have a video that shows how you used an A frame to find the contours? Also, how do you prevent from breeding mosquitoes in the open ponds? I’m assuming the swales might not be an issue as they are covered with mulch?
This is a well done video and I'm excited to learn more. I just subscribed and will watch your other videos, which I hope include the pond-making one. Blessings!♡
Thank you for subscribing! I have shot the pond making video but I haven't edited it yet.
Great great job Matt....nice work brother. This will be mankind's future.
Thanks for your video!
i love your sytem . many good videosin your chanel. for sure i will subsribe. thank you for sharing the knowlage
This is a great video and explains it well. I wish you would remove the music, though. It is very distracting.
U are correct. I agree
This is a very informative video, thank you. The music makes it hard to hear you though.
Wonder how this can be adapted to our uk where river banks burst flood, to colect water and slow down having some kind of "sponge" to slow water flow and collection down yet harvest it and also stop flast flowing river from flushing top soil away and filling with silt.
Thanks for sharing.
Hi from Australia and a very good video.
Thank you for watching.
I love the music on here lol
Thank you for watching!
Where in thee tropics are you. Good video
informative video. just to confirm, the land doesn't look like it's sloping? it looks flat.
+Anna Vi there is a slight slope. You can still do swales in flat lands.
What is the purpose of the nitrogen fixing plants? To assist the growth of the trees? Or are they better at holding the berm together and keeping it from erosion/collapse?
Thanks for your video.
I would love some advice on building a swale on my farm?
Does the ditch have to be in a straight line or is it naturally going to move according to the path of least resistance?
I have a hill on the backside of my property that is kind of steep and I think it would be a great place for fruit and nut trees because it gets a lot of sunshine.
I just wanna make sure that this hillside isn’t too steep and that I am building the swale correctly.
"On contour" means "perfectly level." If the swale is perfectly level, the water will sit in the swale and be gradually absorbed into the land. If the swale is 'off contour', which means 'not level', it's basically a drain. The water will flow to the low end instead of being absorbed.
Nice results
Great video
Excellent presentation and the music was just fine.
Is there any general rule or rule of thumb about the most efficient and best density to build swales at. For example say "x" number of feet from swale to swale either looking straight down or "x" number of swales for a given difference in contour. I think one extreme form of swale might be seen as terraced gardening, and that seems to be build from level to level knowing that each bed needs to be a certain depth.
The length, width and height or volume of water containment will depend on the amount of rainfall or water you get in a season and the amount of water you want to retain in your property.
very cool thanks for the info.
Thanks for the video. Have you made the video on how to make a natural pond without pond liner or concrete? If not, will you be making it sometime soon? I'm really looking forward to it. Thanks again!
Yes we are digging the pond now and making the video. Subscribe to madodel to get updates. Thank you for watching.
Thanks kabayan!
nice tips
Hi ya Madodel! Thank u for sharing this information, I’ve seen swales n one other video, but little was said about it, u gave more details, u said u used clay n ur pond to keep it from seeping n to soil, I’m thinking u smeared wet clay thickly on bottom and sides, I’m not really sure and would like to see how u constructed it, do u have a video on it, liked, subscribed and tapped the bell! Thank u
Thank you!
How do you stop mosquitos in your water?
+KarasCyborg water should drain into the soil fairly quickly. shouldnt have sitting water all the time unless it rains all the time but... chickens :D free food
You can also add small fish if it is a pond that remains full enough year-round
great work sir
you should also make this great videos in your native language
Yeah...like hawaiian music wud be awesum...
hi kababayan. happy to find out this channel. san yan pre?
Thank you for watching! Antipolo.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge and time, but I agree - the background music is too loud and really unnecessary - it’s nice to where the sounds of nature and your voice.
The most basic aphorism of Yeomans is that the farmers first task is to change the flow of water across the landscape by 90 degrees.
Sir it looks from the greenary you have a lot of rain in your country.
thank you, great advice
Thank you for watching!
good job, my friend
Thanks!
Thanks 4 sharing your clear sense knowledge backed up by experience and examples friend but lose the music.
It clutters up your clear words by adding mental static and it also introduces a stress component into your effort which REDUCES its effectiveness.To me to listen to the end of your presentaion was quite a harrowing override x
Very informative. Just please change the background music into something soothing to the ear. 😂
The outlaw, Josie Swales
Good work in explaining. However, the background music is very annoying. you can remove it to make your video more effective.
Hello. Do you know how to express this using contour lines? Would love to learn more about this :)))
hi! i just subscribed! good info. thanks!
Thank you for watching!
Half way through I blew my brains out thanks to the music
Lol that music.
Swales, the video game.
That music is basically just trolling.
Regarding 4:20 i was searching your channel if you have created the video about making the pond, I'm interested to learn how you keep the water in the pond
We will make the video soon.
Sir - hindi po ba binabahayan ng lamok ang swales?
What do you do about mosquitos that lay eggs in still waters.
Thankyou.
i just subscribed kabayan! where is ur farm located?
+beverly roquesalva Antipolo
Is this the Philippines?
Yes
Can you use kangkong instead of mulch to prevent evaporation?
We use kangkong in the pond to provide shade.
How do you address the mosquito issue with water in the swale? Thanks, I appreciate your sharing us with your knowledge. Blessings from California!
How about the possibility of swales as breeding grounds for dengue carrying mosquitoes??
beautiful idea but music was interfering.
back ground makes hard to listen
does the stale water attract unwanted pests ?
Nice...👍🏻🇺🇸
I like the old school rpg music
excelente video
