I’m on a smaller scale but I take all the chicken manure and hay and ferment it in a 55 gal barrel for 3 months, stirring every few days. Then I dip a 5 gal bucket in and mix with another 5 gal bucket of water. I water my garden, trees, compost pile, flowers with it! What a difference!
I have an interesting situation, I live in a trailer park and have decided to homestead anyways. I mulch all the oak leaves and keep them in a corner . the one I have now is shrunk after 2 years. I will put the "results" on my garden beds this fall. My question is.... is this considered compost? and if I add store bought chicken poo, will that add or detract from this experiment?
Although you disappoint with the shirt you come thru with the nutrients. I guess that will have to do. Don’t forget the OnlyPimps everyone. The most legit homesteader on TH-cam. I wish I could get you to come to my place in Tellico Plains, TN and tell me what to do with my 4 acres. Keep rocking king.
If they worried about a shirt.. they worried about the wrong thing.. 🤦🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️ that’s so disrespectful to your wife.. tell her I got her back 💯💯 thank you for teaching the ones that truly care to learn ❤
Fabulous idea! I have an over abundance of rain water that I can use to apply this method. It's rainy season here, plus hurricane down pours that over fill my water barrels. I hate wasting water. Who knows what is coming this fall! I still need to keep my water barrels full, but the excess has been a wasted resource until now. Thanks!
I appreciate this video. It was truly a blessing to me. Please continue videos like this. I need to learn how to build pasture from wooded land. Thanks for sharing.
Look, I'm an urban gardener living in mid NC... a subdivision! I started growing things two years ago--- mostly in tubs!! I have learned so much from watching you guys. I'm around the state a bit; my husband is an engineer who installs wastewater systems-- making pieces of land perk-- a lot around the NC mountains. Someday, we might drop by to take a look! Thank you for your knowledge and sharing it!!!
I just found out you will be at scrubfest, I look forward to meeting you there. I work there and Sam has been a great help in giving me gardening advice for my food forest.
YeGods, i love everything about this set up! One trick for doing bioremediation like this i learned in my PDC, was to go to your most local most healthy place that has the same characteristics as where you want your land to get to, and to take several soil samples from that area, and add them to your compost extract, sort of as the Permie version of a person eating wild fermented foods to inoculate their GI with the right critters to adjust their microbiome
This is great. Thanks for sharing. It makes the conceptual more tangible. Just finished reading JADAM. Would have been nice to of had this knowledge in the 80's when I worked with prairie restoration.
QUESTION: What do you all think about ELECTROCULTURE ? Have you ever experimented with it and if not, would you please do so in the future? If it's as effective as I've been led to believe, then I think combining it with your Perma culture techniques could be monumental. Thank you.
I’m a skeptic, but people really do swear by it. Do an experiment yourself and see if there’s anything to it. I honestly wouldn’t believe that kind of thing second hand, no matter who’s saying it, without seeing the results myself.
@@jackjohnson291 Thats why I asked Billy and the family if they would genuinely look into it and document an experiment, due to the channel being able to reach so many people. Personally I have not seen it in person, but everything I have seen on video suggests that the copper does energize or charge the soil for faster & bigger growth as well as more yields, than normal.
There has been drought here for the last few months with 100+ temps. I've had to switch over to deep mulch. Just to try to retain moisture. I've been using leaves that I saved up for my second batch in the Johnson Su reactor. It seems to be working well. I just need to learn to tune my watering schedule to it. Now I think it's ready for compost extraction. Once the microscope is working properly I'll be able to get make sure I'm getting what I hope I am.
😊if i have lots earthworms is my clay and rocks is it ok? Been doing lots of research on food foresting. I know much more than i did, but still an infantisamal amount. So far I'm happy with how its comming out. It does seem to be getting bigger and bigger
God had the perfect design from day 1, humans just have the tendency to get in the way and fuss things up. Had the land never been abused by the previous owners, this wouldn’t be necessary, though it would still be greatly beneficial. The more we work with the design (which this does) instead of against it, the easier and the better the results.
I am glad to see the P.I.M.P wearing pimp clothes, I had to have my eyes check after the last video. It would have been a distraction from all the great information you put in this video, if you would have not worn a shirt. hill-billy, hill-billy, hill-billy, that's all I would have been thinking. Thanks for your modesty. Blessing..
Hahah. People are requesting you to do all your videos with your shirt off? Be happy and proud you've improved your physical health! Not an easy feat I think most people would be doing it.
That's looking pretty awesome. Legitimately curious for your thoughts on this, would you consider adding compost tea to your ruminants water? My thoughts are these are all beneficial bacteria that should be in a healthy thriving pasture so they should be present in a ruminants microbiome. Additionally I would think that seeding their rumen this way would help with spreading good microbiology though I would expect a lot of it would die since it's mostly aerobic.
His dog drinks it all the time, though I don’t believe they intentionally set it out for him. He mentioned in a recent video that the dog intentionally seeks it out, knowing it’s good for him. If it’s good for the dog, I imagine it’s good for other animals just as well.
Awsome informative video as always! My question is if you want to avoid breaking down the microbes is the pump as well as the small wholes in your sprinkler not doing exactly that?
How did humanity survive all of these years without this? I’m thinking this damage to nature has become a problem in only the last century or two. Do we/you know why?

@@michellelaclair not sure on store bought? Could have bad things in it. But you can try it
oh.good point . thx@@Flachickenman

He does do consultations. 👍
JADAM goes way deep in these method only with SIMPLE EQUIPMENT, buckets, potatos, indigenous microbes from leaf mold
You are such a great teacher-and so is the Homestead Honey!❤
Your pasture looks so healthy and happy 😊
Appreciate it my friend!
A blessing, as always! Thank you for consistently great content, shirt or no shirt.

Can you share the microscope & program you guy's are using to test your soil & what-not with?😊

Excellent information Billy.I’m really enjoying learning natural ways to heal the soil and grow food. Thank you 💩🌱🍎
You’re welcome my friend. Thanks for watching!
Same!
Much blessings 🤗🥰
"As hard as woodpecker lips" that's a good one Billy. Damn good.

Good stuff there Billy! Thanks!
Thanks a lot my friend!

Have you considered a drip system? A soaker style (under the mulch) or hybrid system should help keep it from evaporating as quickly/much.
Same here in central Texas. What do you look for in the microscope? What magnification power?
@@jackjohnson291 I do have a drip system and a few beds with micro sprinlers.
Love the information and thanks for sharing. God bless y'all!
Of course my friend. Thanks for watching!
Love the video You are right on the button ,Nice presentation thanks so much for the information 👍
Yup. Turn the juice loose. 👍

Worms are great! They make fantastic compost.
Absolutely genius. Fertilize the pasture which then in turn feeds your animals and gives you manure/grass clippings for more and more compost!!!!!!

Had the land never been abused by the previous owners, this wouldn’t be necessary, though it would still be greatly beneficial.

Chic poop and weeds fill with water and let it set a few weeks works great

Great video Pimp! Can’t wait to try it. Gonna have to use a pump sprayer though.
Good luck for the Wim Hof cold plunge in that tub after this😅

I'm interested in doing something similar. I'd like to know the best areas I should consider?

My back drop is desert in West Texas.
Any suggestions??
🤯brilliant!!!
Thank you!

My thoughts as well. I feel like just a gravity flow would be the way to go.
Yes, Shirt off Please. But also be sweaty and glistening as well.
How did humanity survive all of these years without this? I’m thinking this damage to nature has become a problem in only the last century or two. Do we/you know why?
That's easy. Chemicals are used constantly everywhere, our yard's, our gardens, our Agricultural farm's, the Chemicals trails, etc.
Pesticides/herbicides instead of animals.
First.
