  • gardening was invented by gathering plants and then pooping outside the camp any swallowed seeds grew in the compost soon people stopped gathering plants they thought they were gods giving birth to all plants from their butts they had poop dances celebrating their miraculous powers.

  • @bryncomeaux

    ok. i could go with that..nit sure it was excatly what invented it , but some where along those lines

  • Curious how the cucumbers turned out, never heard of adding mineral rock like you mentioned and other than compost your method kind of contradicts what others have to say.

    Also, I live in central Austin, TX but my biggest problem is squirrels, opossum, raccoons, mice and rats; not only do they destroy the fruit (one bite and done) but kill the plants, any suggestions? I've built large chicken wire containers this year hoping that will solve the issue.

    Love your vides.

  • @TexasHomeInspector

    the mineral put nutrition back on your plants that years of abusing out earth has stripped out...and your food will taste better and grow bigger. we have squirrels but i dont see them eating the garden, more the nuts in the big trees....we had a few bites out of some of our persimmons but we just shave that area off and eat them anyways, we tend to go with the philosophy that we just grow enough for us and the animal friends too!!!!

see all
