Today is the day! I am starting my food forest with the first trees and berries. I am planting out my backyard, permaculture style! This is only the beginning, in the next few months I will be building out the guilds and supporting plants more.
Background on why I started a food forest: • Starting a food forest...
In the video:
Desert King fig
dwarf Frost peach
black and pink currants
dwarf cherries (2 - Romeo and Juliet, romance series)
Polaris and Bluecrop blueberries
Saskatoon berries
haskap berries (2)
Gravenstein apple
Salmonberry

2:40 I love your face here, such excitement! I'm excited to watch how this all plays out. I agree with all your decisions regarding compost/native soil, teasing the roots, planting depth... definitely pro moves there :) Currants are great plants to put in the shadier spots also. For the blueberries, keep an eye on them and what you are looking for is red leaves. If you start seeing red leaves, it means that one of a few different things may be happening. The most common is a pH problem preventing iron from being taken up by the plant. This will look like a full deep red leaf. This can be solved by lowering soil pH. It could also be magnesium deficiency, or just general nutrient deficiency. These will present as spotty reddening. This can be solved by adding epsom salt, or just a nice compost topdresssing. Keep in mind that some of this is likely to show up regardless, just due to transplant shock in the first year. However, if your blueberries have nice deep green leaves, then you are all set. But the key thing to watch out for is that solid deep red leaf.

The first two years of Saskatoons are really slow. The third year you will see it start to take off... So awesome to see this many varieties of things. It will pay off nicely in a few years.

RE: root bound. Seems brutal but do an X cut on the bottom (I use the shovel) + spread slightly. Important there's no air around root ball so water.

I just bought a good sized bag of cherries, and ate them, and then threw the seeds into our naturalized area in the back yard, and now I have 10 trees or so growing

Great job with the food forest. You will need a pollinator or two that is compatible with the Gravenstein. It needs to be another early blooming variety.

Hello from Colorado, Kristina! Looks like you are doing a great job. You planted a nice variety of fruits. I’ll be watching your progress. I ordered lots of berries today for planting as soon as our ground thaws. It will be a while.

Weeping willow tree has root hormone in it. Cut small branches, add 5 l. water, simmer for about 2 hours, let stand overnight. You only need enough branches to cover the bottom of a large pot with 2 layers loosely spread. Use it with a 10 - 1 ratio of hormone to water. 1 l hormone, 10 l water.

@@kristina_lynn This is very true, it's due to the indolebutyric acid (IBA) and salicylic acid (SA) contained in the plant. Interestingly enough, the salicylic acid is also an active ingredient in pain relievers, and this is why willow bark tea can actually help with headaches.

I googled and it said it’s tolerant of cold down to -20c, it likes moist spots and grows naturally in ocean spray zones/ riparian areas so if you can provide it a similar habitat, it may work!

Hey Kristina, I'm curious if there is an update to this video? I came here from Keith's Channel (Canadian Permaculture Legacy) and I live closer to you, so I'm really excited to find out what plants you are adding in, that maybe weren't mentioned in this video that you added since this.

Doesn't the fact that biogenesis is only known to have happened once here on earth "kind of, sort of" provide evidence that life is extremely rare? In this pristine biosphere that is so perfect for life, should we not have multiple unrelated species on earth if life was common elsewhere?
