João Gilberto Milanez from Agroforestry International came out to Dustups Ranch to oversee the implementation of the planting plan. The first planting area covers 3,500 square feet (325 m^2) and will receive all of the love that we can give it: soil amendements, mulch, drip irrigation, etc. But first, we need to mark our syntropic lines and get everything ready.

@schizogardener 22 дня назад

The russian olive is honestly a terrible idea considering you are doing an experiment with a noxious invasive right on the border of a national park/ wilderness area. Instead of mildly improving desert agricultural potential you'll have massively threatened your local ecosystem with an unkillable, nitrogen fixing, heavily fruiting and bird dispersed invasive. Please don;t buy seeds mixes and instead spread plants within your property.

@russell7489 12 дней назад

Yeah, avoid INVASIVE non native species, even native not in the area. Also, getting ahead of yourself? How about establishing some grasses that grow in Texas, anywhere in Texas. Native 'wild flowers' / other plants that grow in area. Get them into wetter areas you are making and let them thrive, build up bio mass. When that's going you can add non native grasses that work in Texas, or small shrubs that produce a lot of bio mass, not a few leaves, but something you can cut a lot off with mechanical cutters and leave to stabilize, add bio mass. If it was a wet place, like willow, in my area, forsythia produces 6 feet of shoots a year to cut and chip for mulch, and if you don't cut them they take over by tip rooting. Oh, if you can find a plant that tip roots, try it, if it works it's amazing how it can spread over time. When you need that part of property, that's what bulldozers are for. Make a trench a few feet deep, fill with cutings, bulldoze a covering, leave a dip to catch water...

@briang4914 22 дня назад

Using aggressive or even non natives has been proven to work in systems with this goal in the past. Most often you see them act as 'pioneer' plants and nature later takes over with what should be there. But of course caution is needed because of those horror stories you hear about.

@@briang4914 It's just daft when there are also proven ways to do it with native species.

That's just shown me everything I need to know about him, unsubscribed. I've literally done this type of project with my uncle. Over 20 years ago he bought some wrecked farm land and we restored it using only native species. It's now a lush forest supporting a huge variety of native species of fauna. Good things take time.

@@buddhamack1491 I definitely think you took the high road on that strategy for sure. But also there's been a lot of successful cases using the best plant for the job. For every bad story you hear there's been hundreds of positive cases, we just tend to focus on the negative more. Plus, when it comes down to it this is more a matter of philosophy then what's the "right" way. Everyone will argue back and forth about what land improvement means, to some that means just let it sit without any human intervention, others have different goals for their land, his is to green a desert, that goal is to change the land to a more vibrant and productive environment, and doesn't necessarily mean "all native". Plus native doesn't necessarily always mean better.

@Eyes0penNoFear 23 дня назад

Behind my house is a small stream on city owned land. The Russian Olives that grew along its banks were very effective at erosion control, and the stream always stayed within its banks. It also dried up every summer because those trees are thirsty. About a decade ago the city spent a pretty penny to remove all the Russian Olive and replace it with native rushes. It was a wonderful success, and now the entire river bottom is a healthy wetland. Before, the stream was so small I could jump across it in narrow spots. Now, the wetland is at least 100 yards wide. And the best part is the stream no longer fully dries up each summer. I don't know enough about ecology to have an opinion either way about what you're doing. All I can say is keep up the good work! I can't wait to see what happens after it rains.

Some of the concern with Russian Olives is that the tree is considered invasive and competes for water disproportionately. However, they're very good at helping retain the soil and were used to prevent desertification during the dust bowl. So - I think whether or not you use those are fine. Love the series so far. Also reach out to Mossy Earth.

@moneyandtimefreedom3352 23 дня назад

Russian olives are an absolute wreck on their environment. Out competing everything. We have a ranch I. Utah that’s lost close to a hundred acres that no longer is useful. The state and us rip out dozens and dozens of trees each year. Each tree sucks up hundreds of gallons each. They were brought in to help with erosion back in the early 1900’s , today you cannot get rid of them nor use the ground for anything. There is absolutely zero native plants around them. They spread and ruin the ecosystem 100% of the time. If he wants to ruin his plans and the property and the property and water ways around him for mikes plant Russian olive trees. I would hope he understands the short term and long term repercussions of non native plants. 75-100 years ago they were doing it to improve the environment and it always turns out bad.

Sometime people will read a comment and thinks its negative but its not meant that way, simply reading something often seems worse then it was meant. Because of the lack of body language involved in a conversation. He just needs to plant some mother trees so he can get this thing really rolling. Trees are the key to all the under story growing and sustaining themselves. Some mother trees some mulch for that area, then U can begin a nursery of smaller plants under those mother trees, which will help create a better micro climate for them. As i mentioned in ur 'fermenting soil" video this will begin a cascading effect which will drastically change things and begin to produce fruits for ur labor.

You commented that you have a lot of rocks in the property, that should be your first items moved. Make rock dams in the washes to slow down the movement of water. If you can get the water to leave the washes, you can promote grass growth, once you have grass you can move up to small bushes and trees. Your goal could be to set up an environment for beavers to eventually start building dams. Plant fruit trees so that birds and bats can help spread seeds. You have lots of deer in the area… make sure you can use them for spreading seeds. First protect trees from them.

I did this on a small scale unintentionally. I've always wanted to expand my idea from that little camp, but could not afford a backhoe. A Ford Backhoe would be of great help and they can be picked up fairly reasonable and they can be worked on fairly easy. I like what you're doing Shaun!!
