Over the past couple months I been there prob 6 times bc I always find good stuff. I’m On my way rn actually hence why I’m watching these. I found the biggest garnets I’ve ever found period there last time
Ohhhh man! This is the first video I've watched on your channel, so before I say anything else, I thank you from the bottom of my heart 🤗! It's the precise content I've been looking for. Fr! You have no idea (or maybe you do🤷♀️, 😜lol) just how many freakin rockhounding videos I've watched over the last few months (def could be worse), naively expecting, then just hoping, til I was near madness🤯 cuz RU-vid's wonky algorithm wasn't suggesting the right videos for me🤦♀️! Lmao, it's so ridiculous, I have to laugh😂. Anyway, sorry for my rant😬. I've been fascinated with rocks, particularly gemstones, for as long as I can think of, but I never really knew exactly what I admired and/ or collected. I've recently gotten a strong nudge to get serious (amateur level), starting with my property. I just need to know what I'm looking at AND the right places to focus on. Idk why, but I have a hard time assessing some stones just using pics in my books or online. I have a feeling that you're videos will be more helpful. *Also, I did notice quite a few stones you missed while making the video, so I'd for sure go back soon if it were me. **Btw, I live in the Piedmont of NC and am specifically hoping to find rubies and such, but all stones make me happy 😊.
@@aprilwills6777 Thank you. You can look at a USGS data map to get a clear idea of what exist on exactly your property. Rockhounding is a deep passion of mine. I hope to be enabled to continue producing videos for people while using my unique perspective. I have never visited most locations in the USA. So my eager mindset should yield the perspective people crave to observe. I believe these experiences are what many people desire in time and because we get to experience the thrill of discovery and thrill of the hunt at the same time. Wishing you great finds along your rockhounding adventures.
My family and I camped here many years ago. The closest town to our campground was a few miles down the road. We laughed because the town name was on opposite sides of the same wooden post. You blinked, you missed it.☺
You missed ALOT.. Hope you found some of them after you turned the camera off.. North Carolina has some of about everything.. The way things grew together though, it's hard to spot things alot of times.. Espesially creek hounding..
Shouldn't plant much of anything under or close to a mature oak. They secrete a substance from the canopy that acts as a growth inhibitor to many plants. It's their natural way of keeping grass and alot of other things from competing with them for water and nutrients.
How long from when the pineapple forms the flower to time to pick does it normally take? I noticed the flower in the middle in about December of 2023 and the fruit is still not ripe. No hint of yellow, but the crown looks great so it seems healthy. Just afraid I’m going to wait too long to pick but don’t want to pick too early.
@@yourworldexplorer1 Thank you so much for the reply. Its been awesome watching it grow (I live in suburbs of Chicago, so its interesting trying to make sure it doesn't get too much water when outside during the summer). Just seemed like 7 months of fruit growth was a lot, so I appreciate the direction.
I watched all of your videos on pineapples. I also live in Florida and grow pineapples. This year I'm getting about 30 fruits. I would suggest putting your plants a little further apart from each other. I also have taken the time to improve my soil. I've never had a problem with to much water. I have mine under the drip line of my house. I also have some under the edge so some get very little water as they get closer to the walls away from the drip line to being directly under it. They are not picky they will grow just about anywhere and under just about any conditions other then cold. I don't know why more people don't grow them. I have so many at this point I'm growing them in as little soil as possible so I can sell them off. I put them in tiny bags of earthworm castings. They are growing like crazy in those little bags tucked into full shade. Good luck my friend.
They germinate easily in the thick leaf litter under the tree from nut fall so if you fill a pot with rotting leaf litter from the macadamia tree and emulate whats under the tree it'll work They will be fried by the sun if the ground around them heats up You need a good thick cover of their own leaf litter
Australia has a very broad range of climates it extends from the tropical to the temperate and most of it is desert in the interior So its not going to be 'like florida' As such ...maybe in tropical Queensland here and there
WHAT ARE THOSE CROWS GROWING AROUND THE RIPENING PINEAPPLE? WILL THEY GROW MORE PINEAPPLES STOCK TOGETHER? HOW DO YOU SAFELY SEPARATE THEM? CAN THEY BE REPLANTED IN THE SOIL FOR MORE PINEAPPLES? THANK YOU GOD BLESS YOU MARANATHA
To get the largest and sweetest pineapples you should remove the pups and replant them. The root system can ideally support just one fruit. Any additional fruits will be stunted. When you twist off the ripe pineapple you also remove the attached shoots just below it. The main plant will usually have a second stalk growing to replace the picked one
My golden Dorsett looks about the same. I pruned it and fertilized it last week and I have a few new buds growing so far. My Anna variety is waking up much faster.
@@yourworldexplorer1 My biggest problem has been aphids and ants attacking the leaves, so this year I planted herbs around the base of the trees because insects can't stand the smell. I'm in zone 11
I've given them a break for now as they require a bit more care than I was able to provide. However I will recontinue with a better "all natural" soil medium and retry.
