@TrompettedesMorts Hey, we have thought about that (well mostly I have), I am more marketing and agritourism events at our market and winery and my father in law does the growing for the most part and I help him out when needed. For now this is the way he prefers to do it, I have suggested that to him, maybe down the road?
One straw revolution. Give it a look. Weeds hold moister in the ground and help provide beneficial critters. Of coarse this is a mass commercial operation with the intent on profits.
@keithallenlaw Thanks 4 the input, if U had taken the time you would have seen our video on how we mulch the garlic beds we plant. In years past we also did our strawberries this way, straw has its problems as well.
We are small family farm, that tries to make a profit, that is our moral obligation. U don't even know who we R. Profits pay taxes, employee people, make donations 2 charities possible. Do you take pictures for free? Or do you try and make a "profit" for you time and effort?
@keithallenlaw Great comments, thank for your perspective. Yea Gene had a point! Gov't kills me, to much waste, and disconnect with what I call the "physics of life" that I deal with everyday as a ag. producer/entreprenuer. I try very hard to balance Greed w/progress. I really don't want 4 anything, I enjoy my life/business/family. I do enjoy solving problems and new challenges, keeps my brain engaged! U take care Sir and best wishes as well w/ur quest!
@whitebredcharlie Why are you talking to retards then? Retard know it all. You probably think I'm growing weeds right next to my plants aren't you, you retard.
Why not plant a cover crop in between rows of plastic?

Why not use white plastic?
White refelcts light up again and gives your plants more light.

@koertje U use the black to help heat up the soil and keep light away from surface so weeds cannot germinate.

@MaizeValleyWinery
Yeap, I take my pictures for free. Matter of fact, I loath money
and the monetary system. I support an ecologically based
society where everyone trades without money. A moral obligation
to profit? Not sure about that statement. Maybe you can trade your onions to a farmer who has some beef or tomatoes that way
we can keep the government out of our lives. Gene Rodenbarry
had a vision, sadly global greed destroyed it. Be careful with
wanting more than you need. Best wishes.

@whitebredcharlie You should search beneficial weeds. And no I don't do crack you moron.

@keithallenlaw try farming in dirt instead of on the internet, and you will find they are called "weeds", because they aren't "beneficial"
why am I talking to retards on Youtube?
you and gene go save the world...
