Does anyone know if Growing Power gives grants/stipens to their interns? I remember reading about limited stipens to well qualified applicants.
I can never watch enough Growing Power-related videos – thank you:) In appreciation of the choice of coconut coir instead of peat moss. Keep seeing this emphasized which is most helpful. Wondering if Will, with his amazing foresight, is already thinking ahead to when such products from other parts of the country/world will be less readily available due to energy descent reasons (liquid fuel production/transportation) – thus, what might be used in the stead of coir – en masse?
…i really appreciate your work…is there any written plans, explanations of what you do?
@Teddybearcop48 You can find Heirloom Tomatoes as well as other heirloom seeds at Baker Creek in Missouri. rareseeds-dot-com is their web address. good luck!
I wish I knew where to purchase heirloom tomato seeds… Thank You !
how do you keep flies out of worm bins?
@best333WillC If you are still having trouble finding “coyer” [sic] then try searching “coir” which is how it is spelled! Good luck, best =)
@best333WillC shockingly, even Amazon.com sells it. Online retailers is your best bet.
@MindMovin aww. you’re nice. keep fighting the good fight!
I have a small vericompost system. Where would one find this “coconut coyer” or ground up coconut shells?
I just wanna say thanks for posting this series of the 3 videos. I have been watching videos about S510 and how much harder its gonna be on small farmers, and these viedos kind of made my afternoon. I had no idea about peat moss. I should have looked it up myself more in depth. The coconut is a really good idea, the whole system is genius..so thank you. that is all
@heshtech Sorry, I’m not sure what Australia fly wire looks like, but what you need is screen material that is fine enough for the worm castings to pass through, but too small for the red wiggler worms and cocoons. I hope that’s helpful.
@outpostnaturalfoods What type of window screen is it? (what size holes?). Is it what we call in Australia fly wire?
@impalapez Yeah and also useful for their chickens (dunno if the Tilapia are exclusively vegetarian)
What an awesome video!! Thanks for sharing with you tube and allowing us to take a peak at what an awesome thing you have going on there!
thanks for doing what you do and i hope (the original) food producers (the farmers and people like you) people get the food industry back on his toes because its in a mess with a bunch of dirty,rotten,thieving scoundrels (who only care about harvesting money) trying to take over and its people like you looking out for the health and benefit of the people in general of this world and i want to thank you!
Do you ever feed any excess worms to the fish for a lil extra protien??
sick, like awesome, right?
i think this is soooo sick. i hella want to do this.
Good work
