      Kinda funny listening to Germano, due to us removing the european trees and puting in australian trees. He did get the fact that the aussie trees love a fire, and the mimosas pop up super quick, hand around for 15-20 years, then die out... giving cover for the bigger gums to come back and grow more brush ;)

    A trick we do in Dallas Texas are in know wherever in Texas. Take your acorns take some paper towels newspaper or something stick your acorns all through the newspapers. Then lay it all flat you know like 2 or 3 pieces of newspaper down lay a layer of 8 corners down and then lay 2 or 3 pieces of newspapers on top of that and then wet it real good to wear the newspapers all wet. Then what you do there after that is you wait until they start sprouting? Then you can plan of and whatever so will you won't and then you'll have really nice trees come up but my deal is. I plan them in a plastic tube and then when they come up and keep getting bigger once they get almost too big for the tube you cut the 2 ball problem. And some people use the tubes that you can get for trees that they automatically curl up around the tree and you just slide them on a small tree and they'll eventually grow and they'll expand around the tree without hurting the tree

    You can plant those acorns like you would grow vegetables, in a straight row. They grow straight down and are therefor really easy to replant on the desired location. I was really surprised how strong those oak seedlings are.

    • @markfish8403
      @markfish8403 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      So true, good to have acorns from as many sources as possible for genetic diversity. Fruit crops as well would readily replace all the pest species over time. Even the pests are beneficial for cover and fences as the takeover happens. Its great to see that there is a way to make the land recover with a strategy.

    It you want someone knolegabel in mushrooms to identyfy them you also need to show the root and underpart of the mushroom. Your neghbors are farmers so there is bound to be soms one there to show you. Porchini and canterel are eazy to identify when you are shown by someone knoligable.

    Superinteresting to see the offgrid process evolve! Another way to store energy might be to put a bigger watertank higher up, perhaps on the container. When there is sun, the water is stored high up and when you want to shower you dont really need the pump anymore!

    Consider a water tank installed up hill for future...that way your pump only needs to pump water to the tank during the day and at night you can rely on a gravity feed from the tank instead of battery power.

    You can grow willow by cutting sticks off and putting them straight in ground without growing the root in water first. I've seen people grow garden deviders by pushing sticks in the ground in a row and then when they start to grow you can weave them together to create a sort of growing fence or narrow hedge.

    • @ryanmcewen415
      @ryanmcewen415 3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      By taking the green shoots at the ends of a willow branch, pulping them up and making a slurry you can put that around the roots of other plants and promote those plants to grow better root systems.
      There is an enzyme in willow that promotes root growth.

      Willow is amazing. I got given some rods and whips (sticks) many years ago that had been pollarded from the side of the River Avon. I was in a hurry when I was given them (unexpectedly) so chopped a slit trench with a spade alongside our allotment garden shed and just whacked the willow into the ground (making sure they were the right way up) and roughly heeled them in. This is on *very* sandy soil, so I didn't hold out much hope for them, but they were free so nothing lost if they died. A couple of buckets of water to get them going and then I let them fend for themselves over winter.
      I now harvest 10-15ft long rods every December from these trees, which also provide shelter for the shed and keep it cooler in the summer. I get a *huge* amount of rods and whips every year, more than I need for structures on my plot. Last year my neighbour took a load of rods and wove a fence for her plot, which is itself now alive and growing, and in previous years I've given material to local craft groups and hospices for weaving. The smaller whips are are also handy for weaving into Christmas wreath formers. ;-)
      One warning though: don't plant willow close to where you plan to grow crops, as they'll extract every drop of moisture the can from the soil. Great for dealing with wet and boggy areas though.

    begin to look for tree species that will be able to cope with climate change in the next years
    my father helps in a french organisation called "Terre-de-Liens" and they have to plant 18 km of hedges 5 to 10m wide.
    they looked very closely the varieties they are planting and took a mix of more southern trees mixed with local trees able to live on dryer land (their project is near Clermont-Ferrand in the middle of France)

    • @runs_through_the_forest
      @runs_through_the_forest 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      climate change? as in this type of ever changing atmospheric conditions as it has always been, or the fear mongering nonsense mainstream media has on endless repeat, claiming some non-existent 97% "consensus" among climate scientists who are 100% sure it's carbon dioxide? (whenever there is talk of a consensus like that in science something is not right, it's like there would be a consensus on gravity being caused be gravitons, or light is a wave only not a particle or vice versa)
      i'll tell you, for all they know and all their best guesses put together, there are no verifiable models they have to back up that claim.
      for example, 2 huge volcanoes erupting in the wrong place, or the natural milankovitch cycles doing their thing, or the sun doing it's thing (grand solar minimum) could end this interglacial period, and you don't want to live in a glacial period, btw technically we are living in an ice age since 2.6 million years.
      if we look at the data, we can see a few things very clearly: 1. CO2 rise follows temp rise by 600-2000 years (so CO2 has not been the reason for temp rise historically) 2. the cycles of glacial and interglacial are abrupt and we are now on the verge of a big cooling, it's doubtful our CO2 emissions could stop the natural cycle which might have started already or might take another few centuries, depends on what the real reasons are for these extreme shifts.. 3. they keep saying it's getting warmer, compared to when? they compare to pre industrial times, pre 1850, which happens to be the end of a shorter cold period, the little ice age, with lots of growing glaciers in the alps, long cold winters, short growing seasons, in short a hard time with frozen rivers in w europe..
      things change, climate has always been changing and extreme weather, droughts, cold periods, wet periods is just the normal on this planet, psychological manipulation among humans sadly also seems to be normal, fear is a strong motivator, but knowledge and our ability to find out the truth regardless is unstoppable..

    Great work on planting trees. However I think you'll get less success just throwing acorn seeds around. If you save milk cartons or other bio degradable containers (old socks will work too) and cut them down to cup size then fill them with soil and over winter the acorns in your shed you'll get a much higher yield of seedlings. Then just plat the whole container in the ground per seedling. Re you water cylinder, that is the right way to think of water, as a battery. Hooking a cylinder up to your inverter is not a difficult matter, just read the documentation carefully, it should be explained there. Eventually you'll want to upgrade your cylinder to a Solar capable one like a MixEnergy one, however in the short term you can simply upgrade your current Cylinder's heating element to a AC/DC capable version. You should be able to find a direct replacement current element that fits into your tank. Then the AC side goes into your timed switch and later your inverter relay, so it only comes on when the tank gets below a specific temp at a specific range of time, and the DC side is directly connected to a set of solar panels (You may need to invest in 2 or 3 panels just for water heating). In this setup what happens is that direct sun heats your water when there is sun as the DC element can run straight from the panels without any other electronics involved. If the water gets below a set temp (meaning there has been no sun for some time) and its between n and m time of day, then your AC side kicks in and draws from your batteries, however as there should be some residual heat still in the water this draw will be lesser than in a standard element configuration. Setting up your cylinder like this should save you between 30 and 40% battery use, as water heating is the largest draw on the system. Here is a video of a kiwi guy doing this exact workflow so you can see what I am talking about th-cam.com/video/r7g-27AXFEg/w-d-xo.html. I hope that helps.

    Hi, if you are still getting excess energy after heating the water have you considered pumping water to your highest elevation to take advantage of gravity and rely less on the well pump during times of less solar charging?

      Basically you put it in a bucket on the floor for a couple of months and then get it back and see how many are creating roots and plant them. It's labor intensive but seems very effective

    There are some useful apps that let take a picture of mushrooms and try to guess which type it is!
    But don't take the result for granted, it could be dangerous haha

    There are fungi guides online. I think all those you showed are edible but PLEASE check. Very few 'mushrooms' are poisonous but some are lethal in small doses.

    Great video, especially the part on native trees and also hot water tank/solar. I have a question about how much roughly you paid to transport the containers as I'm thinking of doing the same and would be interested in the rough cost for a budget. Thanks

    Brambels brambels brambels! You know you can keep cutting, its going to take a month a year just to take them down like the ammount you have. Yiu can do 4 things about it. 1 burn them down. 2 spray them down. 3 get in heavy machinery and have that dig down and remove or flip the soil.
    All sucks. 4 is get shockwire, demark the arrea and put 3 or 4 goats in after cutting most down
