Our goal is to share our experience of moving from the city to a country homestead. The ups and downs, the good and bad. From quitting our jobs, finding land, finding alternative employment, products that we love, essential homestead tools, getting out of debt, off-grid building and much much more DIY. We hope that you will join us for this journey. Please drop us a message if you have any questions.
I thought a hybrid inverter combines two components: a solar inverter and a battery inverter into a single piece of equipment. This means that an off-grid inverter can also be a hybrid inverter.
Thanks! Just getting ready to "move" a black walnut tree, which entails cutting down the old one and planting a new one. That's the advice I got off the internet. Before I could transplant it, it took off and grew like a maniac. It's just to close to the house, but it's a really nice shade tree. I'm going to save a few nuts and get one started further away from the house.
When you're drilling metal you could also use a magnet to catch shavings I use a similar tractor for rabbits but when I used the wheels some of them would escape so I used old ski's
Hey I have been following your channel and Pete’s and I have a bunch of questions to ask you if possible, is there a way I can contact you privately, thanks and have a blessed evening
It is obvious that the government is taking down the food supply. They are not hiding what their plan for us is. I can't give any detail or they will, like they have every time I have attempted to do so, delete this comment.
Ok so I know you said it’s so easy and that you shouldn’t buy more than one but I’ve killed four plants so far and I’m actually really trying to keep them alive
The reason the Epsom salt technique works is because magnesium and sulfur are extremely important to bacteria and fungi. These live elements in the soil or the tree will go crazy eating the tree because of the nutrients that are so available. I still prefer the larger hole drilling technique because the rain will not wash out the magnesium sulfate as rapidly and the time element usually is 2 or 3 months
Yea, is was a bummer when all our chicks drown last year. I didn’t even make a video about it because I was bummed and perplexed. Not until I talked to the local guy did I find out what happened.
We haven't had much luck with incubator hatching. I have a couple hens that'll go broody a couple times a year. They have a much better hatch rate than us! Haha.
I got a question people that live in the northern half of the United States where they have snow is it important to try to put the panels tight together on the top and bottom so that the snow doesn't build up along the rails?
@@CountryLivingExperience thank you but actually I was talking about the function of helping to keep snow from piling up along the rails that hold the solar panels on if you put the solar panels within say an inch of each other on the top and bottom would that help keep the snow from piling up and causing a leak in the roof
The Idaho water issue is on hold for now. It is not as simple as the big guy and the little guy, it is junior vs senior water rights holders. It is Idaho law unfortunately. They reached an agreement but if water levels drop junior water rights holders will be back to square one. I live in East Central Idaho and we juat crossed over into severe drought a couple of days ago. This causes a real problem for those of us who grow food. We are already on permanent water restrictions and our irrigation master told me irrigation will suck this summer. Todays job is putting up shade cloth and checking moisture content in my ground to see if other measures I have done are working or not. I had another job to do today but that job will have to wait until the irrigation issue is tended to. I am still getting crops but anything can happen at this point and as they say, "Water is life", without it we are screwed. We can't use what we don't have. I understood this going into planting season as did everyone else. We didn't have sufficient snow pack where I live and that's the problem. It was 70+% and that's horrible. We all watched the snow pack with dread. It will afrect those of us who grow food as well as our ranchers who will once again be scrambling for hay to feed their cows after their irrigation is shut off when the rivers drop too low. I am watching the Salmon Main drop evert day as well as the Lemhi. So we know what's coming and it is more complicated that you report. It is the same for H5N1, Salmonila, and PFOS, PFOA, and C8. I let my ground lay fallow last season and did remeadiation. I then installed reverse osmosis to help with this. The later comes to us from plastics we use and it is in all of us and is cancer causing. So big plastics companies are at fault and us for using those products. The others kill people. So this isn't as simple either when you understand the science. We are also having problems wit chronic wasting disease in deer and elk and this can also jump to cows. If that jumps to humans it is fatal. The Bible also tells us about pestulence and famine and we may be getting there don't firget that.
I appreciate you chiming in and commenting. I know all these topics are much more complicated than I can talk about in just a few minutes. Please let me know why all the other farmers making videos are stating that you are not in a drought condition? They are saying you have had record snowfall and that surface water levels are elevated. Are they in a different area? Yes, absolutely there will be famines and pestilence in the end times according to God's Word. It is good fr us to prepare our hearts and minds to see that happen.

I got bit about 2 months ago and the marks are STILL there. It was so bad I thought I had Shingles. Each bite (I had 26 with 11 around one ankle) turned into a blister. I've never felt any bite like this in my entire life. The marks around my ankle looks like I got some sort of weird tattoo bracelet around my ankle. It's awful. I live in the suburbs (very city-like) and these things got me from a walk in a local part. (I've been walking in this park for 2 decades and never had this happen before. I will be getting sulfur soap and will be ready next time. (Thanks for the tips!)
This seems like a huge waste of time and energy. Sure, your rack will survive a tornado. But the rack isn't what the wind is trying to pick up; the panels are what the wind is trying to pick up. And on those Brightmounts, the panels are attached to the rack by a couple of clamps with a quarter-inch bolt on each side. So it's those four little bolts that will decide whether your panels sail away, not the giant concrete piers.
@@CountryLivingExperience No, I'm not a structural engineer, but I understand that if you chain your bike to a sequoia tree and then lock the chain with a cheap padlock, a thief only has to cut the lock, not the sequoia tree. If the wind is strong enough to tear a panel off the rack, you will lose the panel, even if your rack is attached to the center of the earth.
@@CountryLivingExperience Thanks for the info. I thought there might be when I saw all those network ports on the unit. If you can hardwire into your network, it just seems like a more reliable and faster connection than WiFi.
