  • so those leaves will turn to something you cans put plants in?

  • @brianwurst1234 yep, they take a while to break down fully but are fantastic!

  • Are you a Secret millionaire? Just do these videos to help us common folk?

  • @funnyjoey1986 i was overdrawn at the bank again this week and i have a mortgage so definitely no, any donations will be accepted :-)

  • the edges are so blunt, you'd have to rub your hand up and down it for a while to get a cut.

  • hi karstarla, you can plant straight away. some people wait for a few months and turn it over but i go straight in and it works well!

  • I'm just gonna throw out an idea here, has anyone tried using bamboo to build raised gardens, chicken coops, etc? You can grow as many as you want and alot of species grow really fast. So that could save a fair bit of cash that way. And it will look heaps better than corrugated iron and stuff. What do you think?

  • We like sitting around for ages watching you fluff around! 

  • I find the whole layer of pipes and wires confusing. Why is there a need to raise the planting medium off the ground? Is it for drainage? When the weed cloth eventually fails you'll be digging through rusty wire to salvage the compost. Is that a concern? Am I nuts?

  • instead of weed cloth or weed mat, use any porous material eg newspapers, hessian, shrub clippings with soft branches etc

  • The manure has to be aged--or already composted.

  • where do you get your weed cloth? That cloth is expensive at the store

  • i like it :)

  • Sounds like you're saying "ash tray"

  • this is awesome :)

  • this reminds me of old gutters on old houses. If you look at them closely a lot of the time when leaves and dirt have filled in the gutter plants grow REALLY well in them. It's a whole new play on a "roof garden" lol :D
