BIOCHAR made from WOOD CHIPS! The secret to SOIL HEALTH

BIOCHAR made from WOOD CHIPS! The secret to SOIL HEALTH
How long do you leave greens out in the compost for chicken to feed on? Would it go bad after sometime and what would you do in that case?
Any green material eventually decomposes into compost. I continually add material and my compost may stay in the yard for up to a year but typically compost cycles out in 6 to 8 months.
Maybe mix you woodchip with your regular wood
In your opinion is there a prefered inoculating material that would give better biochar?
Better or best is subjective and could depend on alot of different considerations but I prefer a passive method of inoculation by adding biochar directly to compost under development or livestock bedding areas. This will be a slower but effective way of inoculation and easier imo.
What do you do with your ash?
Any ash I generate goes into my burn pile area which eventually gets transferred to another fill area on my property.
That was going to be a question I would have asked I am blown away with this idea, I too have an unlimted supply of timber off cuts. I could go into production of bio char as I also have acess to cow and chicken dung
Here is a question How many burns do you get out of a drum before you have to replace it?
I went back to the old school cheese grater, after loving being able to buy it grated. Go back to most natural ingredients. If you look at labels, you will see genetic modified ingredients in most all of processed foods.
You have the right idea! 😉
When he said doing that kind of work is a dieing trade he is right. Myself I been in the business for about 30 years off and on can't find any good help nowadays
Styxhexenhammer grows with BioChar. He explains that unlike most fertilizer methods which are removed each year and re-planted, incorporating BioChar in to your soil will make it farmable for an entire lifetime. 30+ years if someone else lives on your property and grows, they'll swear you were a prior garden wizard or something. Furthermore: Even if you machine farm (big farm industry), an equivilant BioChar would last you 10 years, which is crazy considering all you need to do is buy wood, charcoal it, grind it up, then literally toss in to soil, compost, a little water (to hold on to ash), then mix it up and forget about it. The best part is it removes the need for you to turn to inorganic fertilizer Monsanto or spend on expensive "Nature's Harvest Fish Oil" fertilizer (which does a great job with huge yields, but the cost and use is ridiculous).
To get your root cuttings, do you have a separate place that you let go wild? And not dig up roots from your ornamental gardens? Great video thanks for sharing there eh!
Yes I do! I have areas where I harvest and actually don't mind if it migrates from where originally planted. 👌
Is this pretty drought tolerant?
Once established yes. It is deeply rooted however it does best with occasional watering. Without water in dry climates it's growth will slow and there will be less leaf production although it will most often survive.
How long did it taje to get monotized aftet the initial declined application? Did they ever give any useful info? Did you have ti change anything?
It took 2 denials and after the 3rd review I was monetized which was a 3 month process. They never gave me any useful information nor did I change anything. 🤷♂️
Great video! Thank you for posting.
Right on London. It was a pretty good inaugural event. 👌
My cuttings from you have all flourished. Even in the super hard clay soil. Keep up the great teaching content.
Excellent London so glad to hear and I thank you for your support of the channel. 😉
Thanks
You are welcome!
Great video!
Thanks brotha. 👊
The cuttings and root stock I got from you a couple of months ago have taken off (wish I could post a picture here). I too planted them right next to an artichoke along with some bee balm, borage and dock. I did have to put up a short fence because the local groundhog was eating both the comfrey and the artichoke, but all have recovered. They are the anchors of my pollinator garden. Many thanks!
So great to hear this. Thanks again Margo for the update and the kind review. 😀
Just saw this. Question: would taking a wild white mulberry cutting now in June produce a root? Thanks.
It can be done but it must be from softwood cuttings rather than hardwood. You will have better success using a rooting hormone ( I use clonex) and stripping all leaves but the top 2 and I would avoid doing this when temperatures are extreme. I have found success in summer Propagation but I find it so much easier in the winter when trees are dormant.
Thank you for the extensive advice! Because temps have been so extreme lately, I’m going to wait until winter to take a few cuttings. I just discovered this tree this summer and found it’s mild fruit delicious.
Watching from Poland. Will try this back in Uganda. Thanks so much gentlemen
You're welcome!
I am having a tough time with ants this year!!
DE should help with reducing ant infestations especially if you can target the nest directly. Good luck it is a bad year for a number of different pests.
Thank you, this is going to be so helpful!!
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching:)
Thank you for sharing your video, but I still have so many questions! How far apart do you recommend spacing hybrid poplar or willow? I noticed a black water line? Do you need to continue to water even after they are established? [I am in Missouri we get hot dry summers, but fairly wet springs--] At what age do you pollard your trees? And I imagine you pollard when they are dormant? The one tree you pollarded at waist height- Do you have issue with deer pressure where you live or do they leave the poplar be? I am trying to find some information on the net or in a book-- to answer some of these questions [If there is a good book or resource please let me know!]. Ten years ago, I read about how in Europe they use pollarding and coppicing for livestock-- and I thought y e s! We have goats again and I have been gathering tree limbs and shrubs from what we have here on the property- and they LOVE it! But I would like to also get some hybrid willow, poplar and some mulberry set up on our farm as well. Thank you for your video[s] you came up in the search for tree hay-- but I also enjoyed your video on the mobile sheep tractor! Thinking about options for my goats! Blessings to you and yours! Michelle from the Missouri Ozarks
Hey Michelle! Spacing for poplar can vary it depends on how you intend to use it. Mature trees need about 8' between but you can go more or less depending. Most all trees in a dry climate like mine need supplementary water for 3-5 years before established. If you have alot of deer pressure pollarding should be above their browse height and yes it should only be done during dormancy. We will be selling cuttings again in the winter sometime around January. Thanks for the question and I will be addressing this question in the Q and A portion of our next livestream. Thanks for watching and your comment. 🙂
Those corn stolks can also be used as Hay for livestock green or dried like trees hay . So really there three sources of hay right there for livestock. Hay Leaf hay and cornstalks
For sure! 👌
I'm digging this concept of augmenting our chicken's protein, and we have more than enough of fed well pigeons, yeeting a couple a week would "keep the wheels on the bus..." But I am not keen on attracting more flies to back yard. I'm going to try making one that traps the flies that come in. I am thinking of using a heat gun, to soften the lid, use a dowel to press, funnel like depressions, cool the plastic in that shape, then snip off end to allow entry and deter exits..... Thoughts? I will also add a wire mesh under the yeeted, to allow the squirmiest out, but the fliers get stuck. Just ideas. Hopefully by end of week I'll be able to give it a shot. Also might try adding a layer of charcoal under the yeeted- might cut down on smell- but the charcoal may "store" microbes, like biochar.
I like it! You will have to let me know how it works. Way to expand on the idea! 👌
how do you think the bones compare to the char made from lets say, wood chips?
Both make comparable char once they have been converted to char but the processing is not as easily done at least not in my retort system . Here is video experiment I ran with wood chips. ruclips.net/video/anf_jq696lg/видео.htmlsi=pnD3FbYeGqdr-iL0 Check it out if you like!
Great video. Not heard info on the charcoal. I do not know where I'd get saw dust, but I have unlimited & year round tree leaves & pine needles- so I use deep bedding which is helpful.
Using leaf drop and needle cast in combination would make a fine deep mulch bedding. Thanks for the nice feedback. 😉
Most folks say not to use sawdust in the run because the fine particles can be breathed in and irritate their lungs. I'm a woodworker, and am inclined to agree. Your thoughts?
It certainly may be an irritant but I have not experienced any widespread respiratory issues with by bitds and I use sawdust, biochar, and woodchips. I am not advocating people follow this template however I am offering as information for what has worked for me.
Dude! Great video. Also, I so rarely see black farmers. We need more :)
Thanks man! 👋
Is it possible to pass along “botulism”?
I suppose that is possible but in my experience I have not seen any incidence of illness by exposing chickens to this source of protein.
I don't know why we humans are so freaked out about decays. Decay is part of the cycle of life.
My question is, would the chickens get the same nutrition from directly eating the roadkill? This is not to be a smart mouth but is something I am wondering. I know that sometimes meat will develop a few maggots in the coup before they have eaten all the meat.
I am not certain if the nutrition from directly eating meat would be more or less. There is a good chance that the chickens would avoid eating it altogether and the consumption of the carcass would not be anywhere close to complete. I don't think feed chickens dead things that are rotting is a good idea and I would advise anyone against it. Thanks for the question.
@@therealprtrhsenteal Thank you for your thoughtful response. I have fed chickens meat scraps but never whole animals.
A couple of tips to keep the smell down. Don't put holes in the side of your bucket. When you're carcass is fully infested put some dry leaves or lawn clippings on top. Just like a composting toilet. It's not perfect but it helps a lot. I put crumpled chicken wire on the bottom to help stop the holes from blocking.
Mercy yeah I can imagine it smells a little bit. lol I rarely have any meat to put in my bugs but there's so many larva in the large bin it doesn't last long enough to get to the smelly part. Chicken poo and coffee makes up the bulk of what they eat. The circle of life brother.... :)
When you slaugther rabbits or ducks or something, could you put the intestines in the bucket?
Yeah for sure. In fact there would be nothing left in the bucket at the end. 👌
Is RUclips so hassling you saying that this is harmful content?
Lol. Most of my content is age restricted or not advertiser friendly. Wouldn't have it any other way! 🙂
great idea, I have considered but I am in the city . the city take care of our road kills but if 8 lose an animal that I usually raise for meat I just compost them or bury them close to new plants
This is definitely not neighborhood friendly but you cannot go wrong with composting. 👌
I was just thinking of this yesterday! right on time :) Thanks.
Just another tool in the toolbox! 😉
Best tip on the Internet today, you used everything:)
Right on thank you! 😊

When I get chickens I WzILL be using this method!
Very ingenious, kinda gross from a girls perspective,but, the maggots are full of protein...
Not gonna lie it is gross but the chickens are highly interested:)
Smart dude. Thanks for posting.
You betcha! 🙂
I have 25 years of technical writing and a journalism degree from a school known for communications. That, sir, was a clear, concise, and engaging delivery, the kind i always aspired to in my line of work. ✌🏽
Thanks for the kind words. I appreciate it.
I’m looking at getting some of these later in the year, thanks for sharing your thoughts and hope you both have a blessed weekend.
Thank you! They have performed well for us.
Great video as always. waiting on the next in anticipation. God Bless from TN
Thanks for watching and I appreciate the nice thoughts. 😉
I have 2 cats. There are no rodents around here.
Cats do amazing work! We used to have alot of them throughout the years. Lost them all to nocturnal predators.
Wait, how do these work?
It's a wire cage that is spring retracted and tripped by a gopher touching the trigger in the middle of the wire cage.
I just want to let you know that you have some of the best videos out here. Very informative, coming from a place of experience and authority, but not pushy or overbearing. Great job sir.
Thanks for the nice words. Thanks for watching!
Looks like a great tool. Are you making a dent in the population or damage?
I would like to think I am making a dent but they is always a plenty of them! 🤷♂️
