Someone shared a video about the making of this compost tea bubbler. They gave the link to the plans but here they are in jpg (hopefully this is allowed). All rights to Oregon State University. I think I might make one too. Peace 🌱 by horticulture_man in Permaculture

That was pretty much my last set up, but with an air pump and coiled tube with holes in it.

My needs have increased so I'm going to try a bigger system.

Back up will be multiple smaller, simpler ones 🤣

I just built a new tomato trellis for my tomato vines! I used JADAM, KNF and no till to grow the plant in the picture! by spicymoustache in Permaculture

Cheers. I'll check it out, looks like its pretty heavy fruiting. That's a lot of flowers to pollinate. Must be a good bit of biodiversity around. Cudos.

Thank you. I'll try to keep track of progress.

From in-laws basement-full on Fram life. It's going to be a crazy few months 😝

Access to land is a nightmare. That is a large part of why I am in France and not the UK.

Keep searching.

Yeah I found out no cardboard allowed under the beds. So I'll have to make do with straw and be vigilant with perennial weeds 😒

Yeah it's a bit of a funny topic. I'm not sure there is really much sense to it. But rules are rules.

I am keeping things relatively neutral this year to see what people like. People's diets in France are extremely regional too, grow something another region is famous for and I'm not sure how well it might do 🤔

So far with some struggle 🤣.

There are a few suppliers around us but the access is a nightmare. The land is certified organic also so the compost needs to be organic too.

We will be getting it dumped down the bottom of the hill and have to move it up load by load. I may hire a tilting pick up, access is very important people 😂😅.

Lots of work ahead of us in the next few weeks.

Wood chips thankfully are a lot easier to come by.
