@joompah7 4 года назад

I think I figured out what I appreciate about your channel and you. It's rough, raw, a little ADD (look there's the moon!) Your beds are not perfect your garden is effective and productive. And I love it! It looks more like my little farm.... And I feel it's attainable in my part time fashion. Thanks for just being you and throwing out useful content and not fluff

My modus operandi is like yours... out with the old and straight in with the new. It works fantastic :)

Very happy you are pulling away from plastic. I know it's more work but that's what's best in the end. Hope the other market gardeners will follow.

@PsychoChickenEcoFarmAsheville 4 года назад

Dude, what a fantastically helpful video! It's so great to hear you talk about finding ways to eliminate plastic from the process!!! AND to hear you say, ' just go through and pull the weeds by hand'. It really doesn't take that much time. Your beds look great after and the beds stay clean. PS love your bluebird boxes in the corn time lapse. We have too many turtles to use the flail mower between March and December here in WNC, so I'm struggling to some degree on that front but for us right now, a scythe and occultation does the trick...thanks again! pb

I enjoy watching the different styles of No-Till between you and Josh Sattin. I "L-O-V-E" my silage tarp. It's a tool that's going to stay in my garden shed for the foreseeable future. I just bought it this past year. I am already loving the results. Please keep pushing the boundaries. I am watching and learning. Thank you, Farmer Jesse.

@notillgrowers 4 года назад

It's a very effective tool! Don't get me wrong. A great tool to learn on too. But it's just a lot of plastic and no photosynthesis. Good to work away from tarps where we can

@shawnueda8909 4 года назад

good luck with Sudan grass. Benefits of Sudan grass is that they do have nematicidal (kills nematode) but not all species of nematode. But it needs to be knock down during vegetative state. Downside of Sudan grass is that they do have allelopathic property. So recommendation is to allow the residue to decay over winter prior to next spring planting. Mowing alone isn't going to kill Sudan grass. Solarize will kill and so does freeze.

@notillgrowers 4 года назад

Good notes. I should say if I didn't that it's not all Sudan (which is why I thought I could skirt the allelopathy). Maybe 65 percent with the rest being mung, sunn hemp, buckwheat, cow pea. But the solarization after 3 sunny days above 90 was definitely not effective on the sudan. May have needed more time.

@cchurch5037 4 года назад

Loving all the testing and experimentation with relay cropping 👍- have a wacky oregano that’s growing prostrate for some reason and now covering half a bed like a blanket - you’ve inspired me to let it ride and test it out as a living mulch for the coming Southern Hemisphere summer furnace - should be easy to transplant into - worst case I’ll have sh#tloads of pasta sauce flavouring ... 🤷‍♂️

@notillgrowers 4 года назад

Haha. That's an interesting crop. Not a deep rooter really so could work with nightshades. If it goes together it grows together, right!?

@lindahipple4817 4 года назад

C Church I use oregano(greek) for a cover crop last year. It was great! I couldn't kill it, lol walking on it.. the ants and moles hated it! I gave away so many plants to any one that wanted it...it has deep roots btw. Blessings.

@miketholis1049 4 года назад

Super awesome video!

@TheFarmacySeedsNetwork 4 года назад

Cricket says "Like share subscribe.... clicket!clicket!" Weed and replant is definitely the best option.. Buckwheat is a good cover if you just want to get a cover established fast.. in 3-4 weeks you can have an active nectar crop for bees. I am cover cropping sweet corn underneath with buckwheat.. excellent combo! Yeah, I weed and then set those weeds up to become mulch.. make sure they die in the sun.. then either mow in o just leave on surface and add more mulch. I've never seen the rolled paper mulch roll.. Where do you get that? Love everything you're doing!

@Rooted789 4 года назад

Great video. We have been flipping some beds. Also found just pulling out what's left by hand to be simple and effective. Not many weeds when the crop grew well. What do you use to cut the tops of the plants? We use a machete for crops and get away with hand pulling for weeds.

@notillgrowers 4 года назад

I actually just use one of our harvest knives. The flat edge on the top is perfect for separating from roots!

Great videos! I agree, i love the paper/cardboard and mulch. This is way late, but. Do you think tearing up some of the cardboard or mulch paper then covering those with compost would help suppress those grasses that were clearly well established? Would love to hear how you dealt with that. Keep on, I’m learning so much from these great videos!

@kirkjohnson9353 4 года назад

Another great video. Thanks. Looking at your 'must have' book list I'm thinking of another book that could be there. Gardening When It Counts- Steve Solomon. The book was transformational for me as to how I looked at things. Really love the work you are doing and it is so great that you are able to document what you are doing here with videos.

@parkerbender9189 4 года назад

Great content as always! Clear plastics might work better if you only have a few days to solarize. However I think it also fries the microbes along with the weeds unfortunately 😔

@notillgrowers 4 года назад

Hiuh, I did solarize the Sudan for 3, sunny 90 degree days (I feel like this must not have been clear in the video because you’re not the first person to say it), but it was not effective here. As for the microbes I do think it’s as much about intensity as duration? I think that’s what I saw last time I looked at the studies.

@microledonfarm6782 4 года назад

Great info! Gotta love experiencing these situations. It really is truly the best way to learn. Thanks for sharing. When you mow down everything the way you like, do you amend the beds before transplanting and how? Thanks for your contribution hermano. Keep on keeping on 👊🏼 ✌🏼 !

@notillgrowers 4 года назад

Generally if I'm going to fertilize I will do so before I mow. I didn't really talk about that here, but I should've!

@microledonfarm6782 4 года назад

No-Till Growers cool, I was wondering. So, the mowing is enough to incorporate it into the soil? I like it the idea. We got our first flail mower this year. Still learning the best way to make it as effective on the farm. For instance, I’m getting ready to terminate the summer cover crop to prepare for the fall cover crop. I don’t have a way of drilling the cover crop seed and I wasn’t sure if the jang would be able to do it without the soil being tilled, (which we are trying to avoid). We’ve only ever broadcasted the seed. It’s oook, but it could be better. Would you recommend that I broadcast the seed after the first mow? Sorry for the long comment 😝. Thanks again Farmer J!!

@rosea830 4 года назад

A ground hog has moved in under my front porch and I have a dinosaur kale plant that's about 18 months old that bolted back in spring and I just let it go. Now that's making bunches of leaves and spreading. So, I'm trying to appease the ground hog with kale so I can get radishes going. This is not a problem that really bothers me, just something funny to share. I did it to myself when I put a rodent repeller in the chicken coop and made their home, which was near by, annoying to live in.

@Cherryparfait41 4 года назад

Tell me what you think about this happy accident that I ended up with this season? I didn’t have enough ground prepared at the time, but had a few butternut squashes that were perfectly ready to be planted. I did have my pepper row ready. So I planted a couple of them together in the middle of the row. Out side of the main spot they were planted in, I led the vines along the row as they grew. It turned out that they have both been super productive, AND formed a living mulch for the yummy peppers without any adverse occurrences. Getting a super harvest from both! Very pleasantly surprised.

@notillgrowers 4 года назад

whoa interesting. and you didn't have to step on the butternut vines too much?

@Cherryparfait41 4 года назад

No-Till Growers only at the end of the rows...I should have clipped them back, but they are still putting setting big fruits. Along the rows, I just kept tucking them inside. I still enough room. I had about two of gras paths between the rows of tomatoes and trellised mountaineer half runners. I’m getting rid of the grass paths though. It’s pretty at times, but I have to keep the rows heavily edged. Like three foot wide flower beds. May not work as well for commercial plots.

@yokokers 3 года назад

Hey Jesse! Love seeing the experiments in your field 😊 Not sure if you still look at comments of this video but I'm going to try a diverse cover crop mix like yours and are you saying that the twice mow effectively kills (except the sudangrass) the cover crop at any stage or do you need to wait for them to mature to a certain extent? I don't want things like buckwheat to go to seed but it'll likely mature quicker than the rest so I have a slight hesitation....

@notillgrowers 3 года назад

Hi Yoko! So, most of the crops should be pretty mature to kill with this method, though for many beans and peas (mung, soy, cowpea, etc) the mow-kill is pretty easy at almost any stage. Buckwheat you can mow-kill it at any stage, but if you're going to add buckwheat, I'd sow it a full week later than the other cover crops. It will outrun basically everything (cowpeas are a decent competitor). For mow-kill, I would just stay away from grasses.

@EarlybirdFarmSC 4 года назад

How are you planting your seeds in those beds? By hand or using a seeder?

@greenthumbgardens8650 4 года назад

I like your radish spacing. Are you using the F24 roller and what's your gear set up?

@notillgrowers 4 года назад

Yes, f24, but these are watermelon radishes so I actually went with 14 in the back and 9 in front on the Jang to get about ~2"-2.5" between each.

@Nic-mj3ep 4 года назад

Of course I saw this after I just took the tarp off a weedy, weed seedy plot in my garden! I figured the black tarp would sterilize the weed seeds, or cause them to germinate and then kill them off. Why do you say that all seeds need to be removed before tarping?

@notillgrowers 4 года назад

No no, tarps will do that. I was saying all seeds need to he removed from the garden before those other methods of faster bed flips. Tarping is fine but it's just slower. You can tarp most seeds.

@debcrisp6335 4 года назад

I am struggling with perennial weeds in my home no till garden. I plan on mowing the weeds low and cover with clear thick plastic for a few weeks while its so hot out. It concerns me that tarping didn't kill your sudan weed. Do you recommend a different method for me? I am in east tn. Thank you

@notillgrowers 4 года назад

The Sudan grass would die under a long tarping.. It won’t die under a quick solarization (like I did). Or at least that’s my experience.

@bryanunbound 4 года назад

If you flip a (weed) seedy bed and rake it, what do you do with what you raked out? Can you compost it?

@notillgrowers 4 года назад

Good question. We have a pile that is intended to be fully composted where we take that material. So we will add the weedy matter to a thermophilic pile later on. If it's just a few weeds we'll often just toss them out of the garden. Definitely don't want to add it to compost that is not going to get the heat treatment
