AMEN!!! Do what u know that works, teach those who want to learn and keep going

Don’t worry about this people. I use comfrey, alfalfa, nettle and others for 2 years now. I love them it’s free and natural. No synthetic chemicals. Keep up the good work.

its nice to see someone going step by step solving issues others have had, and work through each issue. you will have many calling you out as you are going back to how things were done years ago. oh but wait because you are not running out and buying to support big ag chemical companies. keep up the amazing work you are doing. we live on a quarter section that no store chemicals have ever been used on. we are at the head of a creek and in the swamp and we know our part in keeping it clean . I will be making the garden juice this summer in plastic drums in hopes of getting rid of burrs in our pasture. please keep doing what you are doing

Imagine that learning from someone else, I think we have been doing that very thing since humans appeared on this planet. As a long time organic gardener I have learned many technics and organic practices over the years. Some excellent advice and some are not worth the time it takes to implement. You learn by doing and observing your results, that tells you the value of the teacher or presenter. Many gardening tips and practices may not always work. The method and or advice may not be the cause, instead it could be that it does not work for your area, zone. soil type and weather. I am new to your channel and have been impressed with your straight forward knowledge based on your actual experience as such I am a new subscriber. I am 74 and have been gardening for over 50 years, you can teach an old dog new tricks. Thank you for all your efforts, I look forward to your next video.

Thank you for the information. I love watching your videos and learning, especially how to utilize as much resources from your own property without spending money! I find you to be well organized, sincere in your teaching and desire to help people. I can tell that you have done thorough research from many different sources and you explain the techniques so that everyone can easily understand and employ. I will be using your soil building techniques on my homestead! Thank you, and God bless!

Hey brother, just found your channel by searching soil improvement etc, I enjoyed and learnt from you about using potatoes as a starch, unfortunately you didn't write a book about it 🤪, here in Australia we have big buildings called libraries that all seem to be filled with books, weird eh? Anyway buddy, ignore the fuzzywits and keep up the good work, subbed from Au 👍

Hi ,First let me say .Not everybody is educated that has videos on KZfaq . Now let me say thank you brother for your reading and learning a task that is above a normal help to the average retail small garden farmer . You are a great guy . Not because he says what he learns but what he shares of what he learns from reading and doing . As far as other ideas . No dought about other ideas out there on KZfaq . I am a subscriber and proud to be . Thank you again brother .

I would not have given fuzzy wuzzy a voice. Let people talk, and if they write stupid things in the comments just delete them. Just keep doing your thing because you makes some great interesting videos people love to watch. A lot of great people were driven to Greatness by negative people trying to get them to fail!

This is only the first video I’ve seen, but SUBBED! I’ve heard all I needed, in this video, about who you are, and what you THINK! The fact that you DO THINK! And READ! Sign me up!

Sir I am a widow on Social Security Planning on growing veg,fruit,honey ,eggs and chicken I have watch all kinds of videos on KZfaq I want to thank u for taking your time. U explain things very well. The best part is it does not cost me a lot of money I now just watch u. I have a question I started compose in a trash can. It seems like it is strong dark color.. On KZfaq they advised to add water. Everything is breaking down very good. With no chemicals on the plant matter. That is all I have added. There is still a lot of liquid. I was going to try this for my fertilizer. Because I have no comfrey But will next growing season. I am a beginner Thank u so much learning more from u than anyone else on KZfaq And I have a lot of natural resources Tn on top of mountain some of my land has never been touch. God Bless u and your fly U r doing an awesome job. And explain it to where even being a beginner understand Pamela Fox In your corner

well said Thom. Good luck. Tham from Viet Nam

Keep on going 3 Basket Living. You are awesome and so real. I appreciate you

As an organic gardener I’m always looking to learn. Started going down the JADAM rabbit hole until I watched a fellow YT actually in Korea at the farm where the master and son went through their operation. At the very end of the video the YT asks the master about all his concoctions and liquids and the master basically admits they grow with high quality compost and only use anything else if absolutely necessary. This is coming from the guy who wrote the JADAM book!!! I’ve had reservations about what specific microbes you are brewing for and the big issue is the dilution rates . At the recommended dilution rates you can basically use radioactive waste water and be ok. I’m tired of humping water around as well and at the master’s farm they use an intricate irrigation system and plants are grown through landscape fabric. There was absolutely no mention or use of sea water. In the case of comfrey IMO rather than deal with the elixir you are making u like the permaculture method of simply burying semi composted stuff like this between my veggie rows. I do tomato stems, beet tops etc.Over the last 5 years I’m seen better quality produce and it sure beats lugging smelly ass liquid around that god knows what’s in it

Good video Thom as usual. Keep up the good work.

Intellectual individual will follow you regardless, I still appreciate a lot your videos. Keep up the good work 👌🙏😍

Watched a couple of your videos.. loved how you handled fuzzy.. and I believe you are a brother after asking for forgiveness upon calling another father. Peace my brother.. you are indeed a great teacher from videos I watched. Let’s continue on trek to fulfilling Gods desire for us. Gen 215 . God bless you.

Keep doing you Jeff. I'm trying your potato/moldy greens/hymalain sea salt mixture and see how that goes. Thanks for your time making these videos.

Hello sunshine! Me here with my tin foil hat and coat hanger…haters gonna hate! They troll every account. Giving them attention probably is the only attention they’ve ever received. I’m really learning a lot from your videos. I’ve recently purchased several books on herbs. Lots of videos on homesteading and loving it! Keep shining!

thank u for your service

We need more people like you putting these egg heads in there place.

Thank You! I wasn't aware of the comfrey bocking 14 before watching your videos Ordered 10 cutting

Buddy I'm in Australia, love ya stuff you will always have them people. You are doing good for people.

Brilliant fertiliser. Been making it for years

Fertility and chemistry. When I discovered it was possible to extract macros AND micros from plant material and manure, as well as adding some simple rock dust, etc, I realized that this was a BigAg killer technique. Most of the cost of farming is inputs and equipment. If you tailor your system to minimize those, you win. It's called innovation. We're supposed to like that...right? :-) You're feeding the troll mate. Ban and no comment is the best response IMO!

These are great, informative videos and you should ignore the distructors. God bless.

love this direct and useful information. I dont have much money,and appreciate the help to sustain a healthy soil to grow my food. END OF STORY. fuzzy wuz a bear?

Hi! New subscriber here.I love that you're doing this and that JADAM/Korean Natural Farming is finally catching on in the states. It's how we're supposed to be farming. Nevermind Big Ag trolls.

Nice one,keep up the good work and looking out to you next video.

Brilliant my gardening bro. Well presented by the way I hope fuzzy wuzzy has learnt something from you. Probably not his/her loss. Keep up the great work. I’m Steve from Cairns Qld Aussie not fuzzy wuzzy.

Love it!

Well said Thom!

"Experts" and fake experts have the same characteristics. Aside from being ridiculously loud and absurdly proud, they fabricate content - whether it's in a video, jiggered statistics for a paper or a comment - to distinguish themselves from others. They're always in competition, sociopolitical mode. They're basically lobbying for themselves and against whatever they fear. No corporations necessary.. This is why I prefer videos like yours, Robbie and Gary's, Praxus and so on. Reports and records of hands on experience WITHOUT the fear of disclosing failures. We''re explorers. Expertise - and fake expertise - can go do its sociopolitical thang and live its drama however it wants but it contributes nothing whatsoever. The unknown and discovery is exploration territory. Some discoveries are made accidentally by people I call "one-trick-ponies" and such individuals usually go into an obsessive, patent/credit/mine-mine-mine mode - like the gulls in Finding Nemo - but they're irrelevant to explorers because explorers reap what THEY sow, not what the sociopolitical, control freak, drama queens sow. I don't think FuzzyWuzzy is a corporate shill or another blogger. I suspect he's just average, to be honest. I once had a conversation in the comments of another video about which, I don't remember, but I commented and a guy came back with something like, "I'm not an idiot. - (implying I was) - Who wants to fly in airplanes that aren't made my experts?" And I was flabbergasted. My response, obviously, was, "ME! Are you kidding me?!?! One of my buds gets an idea, builds an airplane? Maiden flight! I'm THERE! I'll be the one climbing around the framework, in midair, with the JB Weld, bailing wire and rescue tape!". I'd say that Fuzzy Wuzzy is your average, indoctrinated person. Exploration happens in real time. Awesome discoveries, whopping miscalculations and plenty of failures but THAT'S where DISCOVERY lives! Every failure is a discovery! IF one doesn't give up or waste a month whining or trying to cover one's ass and whatnot. Explorers don't do that.They "suppose", try it, fail, discover, suppose something else, try THAT, fail, discover and they keep doing that. An explorer can do ANYthing because he isn't afraid to fail. He can create a hundred failures in a day but at the END of that day, he's going to have a whole pile of awesomeness! Wonder, explore, fail, discover, wonder, explore, fail, discover, over and over - wonder, explore, fail, discover - boom, boom, boom - EUREKA! Whereas the average person has learned to follow instructions, "try", fail, blame whoever's handy, mourn for months and/or quit. Pfft! The most boring life EVER!! TO and explorer. Not to the liver of it as they're too busy criticizing others, honing their personal, sociopolitical, ass-covering skills and "playing it "safe". Explorers share their stories. Yes, they're informative, with regard to the experience of the explorer, but that's not the best part. The BEST part is that they're inspirATIONal to other EXPLORERS. Which is why explorers don't care much about things like patents or "credit". They have FAR better things to do than worry about all of that sociopolitical drama. Exploration is a living breathing thing. Exploration is EVOLUTION. Granted, it's true, that corporate interests want VERY MUCH to stop it - or at least slow it down - so it can patent individual ideas and make as much money as possible from them but they don't have any say in the matter. Explorers EXPLORE. Explorers DISCOVER. Every "man-made" thing is the RESULT of it. And there are great gobs of man-made things society will never see because they're gathering dust in the corner of some explorer's basement where they were pushed aside when their explorations took them in some OTHER direction or somewhere ELSE. Exploration is a sub-culture in itself that doesn't even know it exists. A non-communal community of "wonderers". The wild, "renegade", black sheep branch of human evolution. You're fine. As you know. You're an explorer - living THE life - and Fuzzy Wuzzy's fine - NOT living the life. It's just two profoundly different worlds. Two branches of evolution growing further and further apart. Everything is copacetic. And perhaps Fuzzy Wuzzy will wonder about taking a chance on himself and find the courage to explore and discover awesomeness in the future...or not...who knows? Forget about the critics AND the experts. The sociopolitical world they occupy is tiny. OUR world is the whole of the UNKNOWN! They have their tiny little corner of reality and WE have everything ELSE! Yet, explorers get caught up in trying to explain themselves to people who just can't grasp the point of view of an explorer. NOW - I have an annoyingly slow drain I've been wondering about and experimenting on PLUS an idea for a use for the microbes and gotta go get some rice, milk and brown sugar at the 24hr market! I suspect it will exfoliate the callouses off my rough, old feet and hands!! Dead skin?!?! I think the little buggers will LOVE it!! And I've been wondering about the foliage burning and your reported weed promoting properties of your probiotic spray (weeds coming through the floor in a greenhouse, from a different video?)...and want to check out an idea that's snowballing around in my head...and I started an "oat wash water" ferment today so I want to see if that works. I suspect any "wild" ferment juice will work...so we'll see! And I want to see what one, five and ten drops in a fermenting brine will do with some potatoes and onions.

Who cares what people think about you I'm going to use that solution I am a small girl with you so I'm going to make me up a batch of it and try it out myself I believe it works keep up the good work

LOL ;-) I still got a couple of those with me! To damn late, and to damn big for the burlap sack and pond solution! ;-) Big brother really screwed up their heads!

horsetail has deep tap roots and lots of silica

You da real deal cuz. Much love from yo Alabama cuz.

What setting do you use on you Ortho lawn sprayer to get a `10 to 1 ratio?

5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🌹for you today great grate video. Gracias guapo 👏👏👏

Hey Tom, I use comfrey for circulation issues, to heal leg ulcers, many other medical uses. Makes a really good tea, and the young leaves, boiled and rinsed, make awesome greens. ;-) However, do to issues not in my control, my boys and I can no longer afford to buy it on line, or anything really. I live in a mid-high valley of the Mohave desert. Zone 9a. I'm pretty sure in a semi protected area of the yard, out of the desert wind and some of the late afternoon sun, it should grow. Out here in the sticks, 70 miles south of Vegas, I have no idea how to get comfrey starts. Any ideas or suggestions??? Thanks, Bryon.

Just curious how the liquid comfrey did as a fertilizer? I'm using a 5 gallon bucket and will have to upgrade to 32 gallon like you did.I like what I would classify as new age gardener as opposed to the let's till it one more time guy. One has to work to improve the soil or the garden becomes less productive every year.

Keep going Tom, I think your on to something. Crude oil coming up!! LoL!😅🤗🤔👍💫

Hey Tom, on your JLF, do you just keep adding greens to it to keep it going??? And if so, what can be used??? I believe we're on the same basic level, Tom. I was raised to pay it forward, to help when I'm able. To remember, I was dirt poor coming in, and I'll be dirt poor going out. No problem with that. I'm just a visitor here anyways! ;-)

Asi es , siempre habrá quienes tratan de confundir y desestabilizar la naturaleza y la creación perfecta , por eso la humanidad se está muriendo de contaminación y una pobre alimentación . Cada dia aprendo más de personas como usted . Siga adelante mostrando sus enseñanzas 👍

Very nice video ,

TRUE ALL GOOD

I don't always agree with everything you're about, but I can see you're a smart guy. You don't put something out unless you've researched it, tried it and believe in it. I don't doubt for a minute that your negative commenter has an ulterior motive, BUT I would respectfully suggest that "haters gonna hate" and the more haters you have the more you can rest assured you are on the right track. Don't respond to their venom and it will eat them alive!

Most soils are anaerobic once you get past the first six inches. Knf..jadam grower for a few years. Keep up the good work.

Wow not what I was expecting. That said. I want nothing to do with any group or person that would have anything to do with me. ( Humor) never herd of that plant. You keep on going. That's one less Christmas card you have to USE. What do you think would happen to that Pond Mud ( humor) if it was airated ? Thank you

I wanted to keep hitting the like button throughout, but well, it only lets you put one like up there, so here it goes: Like Like Like Like Like.....

Why can't we see how many likes? I liked it though, toward the end especially. I like Bernie analogy too. lol

I just started watching you and learning from you and i think your doing a great job! Who cares about the dumb asses out there. Keep on sharing your knowledge and helping the rest of us. 😁

I raise vegetables in containers, is it ok to use this microbes fertilizer to rejuvenate my commercially made potting mix soil? how often? thank you.

Who the hell do these people think they are reading books and using other peoples' ideas? You'd think that everybody can just learn new stuff their entire life and never find the end of learning and improving oneself and one's industries! What will they think of next, an open platform where just anybody can post videos on nearly anything you could think of and share information and ideas across the entire globe??

I found somewhere that comfrey should be used before blossoming. In fact, it was emphasized.

wow, very good. GOD of the angel armies bless you.

WE DON'T CARE ABOUT THAT PERSON WE HAVE A BRAIN AND ALL YOU SAY MAKES SINCE TO ME,, AND DON'T WORRY YOURSELF ABOUT THESE NASTY PEOPLE FUZZY WUZZY IS JUST A TROUBLE MAKER LOOZER AND YOU WILL SEE THAT THEY WILL COME AT YOU OVER AND OVER ,, WE ARE NOT GOING TO GIVE THEM THE TIME OF DAY !!! THANK YOU SIR,, WE LOVE YOU !!!

If you get some of those bins, and fill with comfrey, I mean really stuff the comfrey down, and put a couple of bricks to hold it down, DON'T ADD WATER, Just close and clip down the lid, and leave in the hot sun to stew. the water in the leaves breaks down, I generally do 3 bins and after 3 months of summer heat, empty one bin divided in the two other bins, then a few more months, empty everything into one bin. always putting a couple of bricks to hold the leaves down. The super doper concentrate you end up with with is the blackest soup you will ever see, and has very little smell, I think it smells like the sweetness of a cow pooping on a misty spring morning... anyway it is very strong, you could probably use about 1 tablespoon of it in a 5 gallon bucket filled with water. There are a few stringy main veins of comfrey stork in the bottom of the bin, I always put them and a bit of the concentrate in the top of the new bin of fresh heaves.

Ride on tom...do what u do best

Funny, egghead is usually used as an insult towards an educated person, so take it as a compliment, lol!

Hell if it grows fast there's your nitro if it has lots of flowers there's your potasium,or is it posferus anyways

Man I have to say your growing on me

I learn some books to yo

I just subscribed fuzzy...lol

Pls make a video of your home 🏠.

maybe he should buy the book " the lost ways"

LOL, I know you speak the truth !!!!!

Well, the comfrey did give you lots of nutrition for your garden.

Mr or Ms fuzzywuzzy has some fuzzy logic and plenty of assumptions. Must also be confusing the COMPOST anaerobic no-no which has nothing to do with comfrey tea. I guess he/she never opened any of those reviled books, LOL. Your "Smoops" slip of the tongue would be a good name for a smoothy soup :-D

Don't feed the trolls it just trains them to troll more.

Just because someone can open their mouth and spill a bunch of shit on the floor doesn't mean you have to help them clean it up.!!!!

Has anybody tried a simple test of these kinds of teas ... something simple like applying it to similar plants and not on other similar plants?

as a herbalist and agriculturalist, comfrey tea has been used for hundreds of years. time tested before america was america. so learn your history, facts, and knowledge before dismising or downplaying some one. like 3 basket living iving that knowledge for free.

If someone is paying fuzzywassy for his trolling, they are not getting their moneys worth. PS> for the JDAM IS it like EMO and need to breath IE. cover lightly.?

Reading out of a book. Isn't that the mo for education?? Guess he either doesn't think education needs books or that it is a book that he can't control so by inference it's bad!!!

Bro....don't waste your times answering those coment.what u do is pro.i do the same as u do.

crude oil happens to be organic. just sayin.

Every human being on this planet is ignorant to a certain degree. I think the degree to which we strive to enlighten ourselves is one decent indicator of actual intelligence. What exactly is Comfry anyway?

you have been shadow banned. I can already tell.

I dont see how many subscribers and likes that you have

Books are not for mooks

I believe Dr. Elaine Ingham has never advocated for any amount of anaerobic application, going so far as to start completely from scratch if a compost pile or tea batch has lost its oxygen dominated bacteria. I am thankful most of your videos do not follow this ranting style.
