    Amazing results guys and weeds can be a pain and you want to enjoy and harvest your goods without a fight with the pesky weeds, when I started my allotment for my luck I stumbled into Charles you tube and never looked back and my fellow friends have a lot of it and it takes over their life and all I do it’s mulch my beds once a year and enjoy the harvest 😊

    I make bokashi with spent brewery grain. :) Free. Remember to use it fresh and also cool it down - both. Airtight for 2 weeks, then spread thin and air dry on a tarp. Use as you do bokashi bran. Stores great too. Keep airtight.

    Always a good idea to keep goats entertained or they get into mischief. Squash leaves are edible by people and livestock, composting is good but feeding the leaves to livestock(goats and sheep) as a green food full of nutrients they can use.

    Hi Tap n'Noth farm! First time commenting here. I'd like to recommend you to try growing butternut squash Barbara F1 in your conditions. It completely surprised us in the cold 2021 season (south of England), giving us 10 squash of 2-4 kilos each, in a rather shaded garden. I have never experienced anything like this from any other squash, growing them for 6 years! Barbara had a bit of a slow start and I nearly pulled it out, but from about mid-July, it was setting its striped fruits all over the garden and climbing fences!
    It has a small cavity, so easy to clean out and more flesh to eat. More orange and tastier than a normal butternut. And I think also a bit drier and more creamy, which I like. Not promoting, but I thought it might do well for you :-)

    I have a question about Bokashi vs. compost as it relates to sustainability and climate change. Composting is an aerobic process and Bokashi is anaerobic. My understanding is that this anaerobic process releases a significant amount of methane that is absent in composting. Is my understanding correct and did you factor this into your decisions?

  • @CelticRootsFarm
    @CelticRootsFarm 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I can’t help but think about how long it is taking you to finish a project AND film all of your cool angles at the same time. Just know that all of that effort is worth it because at this point 14K people seem to think you are doing something right. LOL Keep up the amazing work my friends! 👍

    • @TapoNothFarm
      @TapoNothFarm  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hehe! I think I'm getting used to getting those angle shots pretty quickly these days. I remember watching Justin Rhodes back when he started up vlogging and thought...'with all those camera angle changes, how does he have any time left to farm?!' but I can understand it now as I feel it's important to tell a story through the camera angles and to keep it interesting for viewers. Also it helps farming as a couple as the work often gets done quickly. Saying all that...yep, it takes a while sometimes. I don't know how some folks make a vlog EVERY day?! Cheers guys, all the best from the Tap.

    • @CelticRootsFarm
      @CelticRootsFarm 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@TapoNothFarm Well, keep it up because everything looks amazing… your property and your videos. I always thought that people like Justin Rhodes had hundreds of cameras set up around their property. But now after doing it myself, I now know that you are just stopping every few minutes to change your angle. LOL I do my best to change the camera angle every 10 seconds unless someone is talking. I find that it moves the video along nicely…especially where people’s attention span these days tend to be very short. It does make for a lot of extra work though.
      My next step is to get more familiar with the settings and interworking of the camera. Hope you are doing well! Cheers!

    Hi Scotland !
    I’ ve got a question for you if you don’t mind : in you enormous bokachi pile, you put water ; anyhow even in my kitchen as I don’t water my bokachi bucket, I have juice after a first week and then every three days ; you probably had a lot of juice in your pile too, also how did it get out ? Did you make little wholes in the plastic cover ? This juice stings if not removed from the pile normally and has to be used as a fertiliser by 10% with water, as they say.

    Ahh soil, goats, compost and muck - my types of people - hello! If you can do it in Scotland, I can jolly well give it a go in Yorkshire.. I am a very skint allotment owner needing more soil and faster ways to break down organic matter. I'm thinking of making a KNF IMO instead of buying in innocuated borkashi-type microbes- but for the same process. I started no dig and made a few IMO brews earlier this year (the way time seems to have gone over the past two years.. was it this year?? :) ) and was very happy in improved soil fertility and had mushrooms sprouting all over the place. I am sorry I've not looked in depth to your material (I've happily just found you and will be looking around more - major goat keeping envy over here!) but have you played with the KNF IMO making and usage in a similar soil making scenario? As a Yorkshire woman I am ALWAYS after ways to do things without splashing the (non existent) cash. Keep up the good work lovely people and Rosa - awesome pig tails x

    Do you have trouble with the squash rotting due to cutting the stem so close to the fruit instead of leaving a T shaped piece of the vine either side? You can see the hole down the stem into the fruit in the vid where fungus etc can get in? Would be interesting to know if you do that every year and haven’t had any issue? Thanks

    Any news on the weed free situation? I'm trying to figure out if I could produce weed free compost/bokashi using horse manure, mixed with bedding as i have access to tons of it from neighbours, any thoughts. I'm sure you've heard of Juanfran Lopez in your research on producing your own native microbes, but if you hav'nt I just did a weekend course at Ragmans Lane Farm with him on Biofertilsers which was brilliant, although it turns out that purchasing the molasses and bran to make your own NM's is still not cheap!!! Brilliant video as always, love you guys.

    • @TapoNothFarm
      @TapoNothFarm  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi there , thanks so much!
      We're new to the whole world of bokashi - just jumping right in with this large experiment - but the style we have been making (large volume, using diluted EM) is quite different it seems to the bokashi bran method which is more discussed. I also think we are using the finished material quite differently than is recommended. We are wanting to experiment in seeing if this is a fast, seed free, no turning way to make a large volume of nutritious material to act as a grow through mulch on our vegetable beds, so will most likely always just be adding it to the top of our veg beds. We're no dig/till so won't be digging it in. Often bokashi is thought of as a fertliser and so is often mixed with the soil. I'm not at all knowledgeable on the bokashi bran methods but I'm presuming it's recommended to incorporate it into the soil to finish the process?

  • @Mrpneumat
    @Mrpneumat ปีที่แล้ว

    Hi guys, bokashi is just the start, on your next pile try covering with local worms when you have the temperature right. Make a worm trap by mixing the bokashi liquid and paper. Mush the paper at the bottom of a tub, put some compost material in and cover with wet paper. Probably good if you cut holes in the tub first, about 5p size. Put the tub near your compost and you'll have some worms for composting in a few days. Breed enough worms and they could assist you in your 8 week window into making a soil so rich it may burn roots.

    When you add so much water, it stops the microorganisms activity and that is why the heat went down.
    Smell it,it probably have no smell,that is because it is practically dead. Anaerobic "compost "is not good for your soil.
    But then again hopefully my experience will be different from yours and you will get good productivity with it.

    • @TapoNothFarm
      @TapoNothFarm  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks for your comment! This isn't compost, which is why the word compost has quotation marks (large scale bokashi is still relatively unheard of and misunderstood so is often still referred to as 'compost' )...it's bokashi which is fermented organic material. It is an anaerobic situation that we are aiming for and the EM that we have inoculated the material with thrive in anaerobic conditions. Check out the work by Agriton UK for understanding the benefits of bokashi as we're just beginners, it's fascinating stuff and throws everything we've ever learned about compost on it's head!
