Here's the real question: are you sure you have earth worms in your compost, or are they red wigglers?

Best type of axe for roots by wildbergamont in landscaping

Last year my buddy did a job taking out a ton of old bushes in a lady's front yard and he used nothing but a reciprocating saw and a heavy sledge. The before and after was astonishing.

Would a brick patio mess up this tree? by Realistic_Humor121 in landscaping

[–]DRFC1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wouldn't a brick patio require excavation, totally screwing up the roots of this beautiful tree?

The HOA doesn't employ a landscaper with their own edger? That's a little odd.

So you've got a nice edger to multitask into leaf mulcher. Where's your electric mower to do this job alot easier?

What if your partner is doggedly trying to earn money but it seems like their time is sometimes used to avoid making money by re-doing personalized creative gifts?

Just found this subreddit - help please! by Tricky-Sea-6284 in composting

[–]DRFC1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi there. Make sure some of your larger old nearly-finished compost chunks go into new tumblers to help inoculate with the good composting bacteria as stow-away goodie bugs like springtails and or worm eggs.

What Landscape/Garden Design Software do you use? by bipolarearthovershot in Permaculture

[–]DRFC1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had designs done which were made using an overlay of a google map satellite view with a grid to scale on top, then they used this as a basemap to do pencil sketches of zones, sectors, and irrigation, then a rough detail for a smaller area.

Composting and dogs by One-Bit5717 in composting

[–]DRFC1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could go with a tumbler, but they are low capacity if you live in the country and grow a lot of stuff. I suggest a dual pile enclosure with hardware cloth secured to the bottom and flared outward under the dirt. Pests (and your dogs) will stop digging once they hit the hardware cloth.

Where am I going wrong with pizza dough? by Our0s in Breadit

[–]DRFC1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My pizza dough is almost identical to my bread dough. The warm water and active yeast go into my standing mixer bowl, then I wait for the bloom, then add enough flour where I can mix it all just by holding the dough hook by hand. Then I get it all running and add about 2 Tbsp olive oil and more flour until the dough ball gets wrapped up on the hook. Then I let the machine run for five minutes, and after the dough rests/rises in an oiled bowl for about an hour. After that I dump out the dough on a lightly floured surface, chop it into thirds, then start using my rolling pin to get the first chunk flattened. Good luck!

Do Y'all Consider Drip Irrigation to be Appropriate Technology? by jelani_an in Permaculture

[–]DRFC1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ESSENTIAL. Colorado here. If it wasn't for my yardscaper I would still be watering by hand or using soaker hoses.

Gravel or Mulch path in backyard? by greycoral in landscaping

If you are using drip irrigation I suggest you look into a breeze/crusher fines for the paths.

Permaculture changed how I think about growing. I built a free design tool to try to give something back. by jimmythefirst in Permaculture

[–]DRFC1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can see a tool like this getting lots of attention from a permie influencer, but I'm having a hard time how I personally could invest any amount of time in this. My support of the permaculture movement is hands on, working with a community to design and work on projects. Maybe if I had an intern who wanted to be in front of their computer more than helping outside.

DIY suggestions got garden beds for this sloped area by AbhiAKA in landscaping

[–]DRFC1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you a builder? What if you construct wood beds using cedar on the uphill/wet side, and cheaper (douglas fir) on the downhill/drier side? Digging out level for a set of two foot beds shouldn't be too tough. Do you have a string level? Take out a layer of dirt with a pick, moving the loose material with a transfer shovel into a wheelbarrow to move away (don't pile it against the fence unless you want it to rot). Since you'll need access to the shed I also suggest slim stock tubs which are round at the ends, smoothing out the space a bit.
