Thank you for this site tour. I'm currently working on the restoration of 1.5 acres in SW Florida, and all the information you share is very helpful to me.
17:23 Last spring I decided to stop irrigating all together I do however use rainwater but I only make compost tea style or Korean natural farming or I am inoculating with some thing like Johnson/su compost, IMO4, Worm castings, JMS, JLF, SuperLabs, I’d like to use root wise as a test as well. Adding these microbes really kick the engines up of the soul food web when you use a micro solution to drench your mulch it really stays wet.
Hey Byron, I’m American. I’m very hooked into the agro forest potential, love what you are doing. Great move on the community. However I’m stuck in America, bitter and disenfranchised with life here in FL to build a agroforestry system for the community under a regime who culls us more every day. Forever land of white cloud
Hey Byron, you didn't stick your hand into the organic material because of snakes (and spiders, scorpions) but then picked up a piece of wood without thinking about it. Careful there! Snakes like to hide alongside logs. Big spiders and scorpions underneath wood that lays on the ground!
Its sad to see such great projects and working prople wasting time (timexworkxmoney) iwith unscientific prratices like "weekly spraying microorganisms". The microlife exists in soil at full capacity. Meanning, if conditions - food, humidity, light, temperature, etc- are there the microlife is there, at relative capacity. Spraying (nobody knows what and how much) will not ad anything. Anything but water and sugars. Might as well just irrigate sugary water. But another great project. Tanks.
There are different opinions on leaf spraying all sort of things. Leafs do have the ability to absorb certain things, but I agree that microorganisms probably aren't a part of that. On the other hand, they are washed into the ground with the next rain - if they are still alive. Gathering soil samples from nearby primary forest and inoculations the soil is probably also nothing science has looked much into, but I would assume, it's something very beneficial although I would rather include it into cooled compost to multiply them and distribute them over the agroforst system
@@matthiasbrunger1179 "spraying microrganisms" (wich ones of the 30 000 + microbes, fungus, etc, many of them are harmfull to (some) plants (in some conditions)...?!) In an open ecosystem is like spreading macroorganisms - birds, snakes, dogs...whatever : if the right conditions are there you dont need to bring them in, they come and stay by them selfs. If conditions for them to live well are not there, in a few minutes all of them will be gone. This is amateur non scientific non sense. A waste of time and work.

Love to hear it. Got some epic Florida content coming before too long
@@byrongrows Are you coming to Florida any time soon?
Byron thanks so much for you and your team for filming this content for the world to see! So amazing to see! Happy planting everyone!

Not true. You are the one who will organize with your community politically to implement agroforestry food farms all over Florida. I believe in you
Every western country is being fcked over.
We’ve got an epic group from Florida in our Food Forest Fellowship community - have you checked that out yet?
Hi I loved your work.

Another great video Byron but funny watching kiwis fear of snakes and spiders😁
Did you go to Las Catalinas while you were in Guanacaste?
The bugs are loud the guys are quiet.
Good feedback - Thanks
🌱🌱🌱
😘😍🥰🥰
Byron don't like snakes or spiders, guess you are not coming to Australia haha
