10 DESIGN MISTAKES I've made in the Permaculture Orchard. Please don't make THESE same mistakes, errors, fails (Part 1 of 4 MISTAKES Series)
YOU WILL MAKE MISTAKES. Learn from mine, make some of your own. Make adjustments Principle # 12 in Permaculture : ‘Creatively use and respond to change’ with the feedback loop. There comes a point when you just need to start, everything will not be perfect, you will never know absolutely everything you need to know. Mistakes are a part of life. Make mistakes and learn from them.

I wish I would have seen this 4 years ago. I made most of these mistakes. I planted gojis before I tasted them, turns out they aren't very good. I planted gooseberries, which I like the taste, but get decimated by sawfly every year. Currants are also a victim of sawfly, but they have too many seeds to eat, there are more seeds than pulp.The deer here demolished every tree until I fenced each one. My honeyberries did poorly in full sun, had to move those. I propagated a couple hundred black raspberries, then figured out the ones I propagated were susceptible to orange rust fungus. I lost several apricot because they really don't do well in my climate. Nanking cherries do ok, but drop leaves when it's dry, they bloom too early, and the birds eat what does get to fruit. Squirrels steal my peaches. Blueberries are gone if I don't net them, same for strawberries and cherries. Pawpaws are supposed to be deer resistant, but they sure do like mine. I planted things I would need to interact with far away from the house when they could have been closer. The zones in permaculture design are WAY more important than I thought. The sad thing is, I researched what I thought was enough to have everything figured out, and it took a couple of years before I realized I would never have it 100% figured out. Permaculture is about reacting as much as acting. Nature is always evolving, and so must we. Now I focus on what's done well in my location, what I want to eat the most, how easy it is to maintain, and how well it will fit in the future.

Goji berries do have a flavor most north americans find not to their taste buds. They are more of a medicine berry not really a desert berry. I have a few plants, one I bought and 3 grown from seeds off the original. They are amazingly easy to grow from seed. I like to nibble a few as I pass by the plant. I certainly wouldn't pick a quart to make a desert trifle with.

we're always adding to gardens and orchards especially if we made mistakes. The most awesome part of these amazing videos is the "why" portion. We all should never stop asking questions like a 5 year old. If we find we dont ask alot of questions we aren't living, we are thinking or getting smarter and we'll never be able to do anything without someone telling us exactly what to do. Well, if you know anything about humanity you know then that human beings dont like being told what to do or having to count on someone else. Thus its a huge, HUGE mistake and waste of your precious few seconds and minutes of life we get not to ask question until we understand the logic and it doesnt matter how long or how many questions we come up with to ask as that leads to all "good" knowledge and even how to stay away from "bad" or lying knowledge. He's so right on a level of understanding exactly as you said "Precious as Pure Gold". Its cool to know you found someone who cares about people, the right decisions for where we live and how we live and this amazing world. His wonderful logic is rarely even found in people. As he said If we dont think he's crazy then we're crazy...yep...its like describing parenting...One just cant ever fully explain the precious gifts we get and learn about that by parenting alone is gifted to us who try to be good parents. Same for being a good mom/dad of plants/animals/insects...As we experience all these things we peer into micro and macrocosms of priceless experience, knowledge, and hopefully much valued gained wisdom that crosses all boundaries. Anyway, blessings in life and most certainly the time spent in Nature.

Pay attention newbies - this is solid information! Hope you don't mind if I add a couple of things. 1) Regularly devote time to build good relationships with other farmers in your area. You never know when you're going to need an extra hand, borrow a piece of equipment or need supplies for an emergency. 2) Allocate a % of your resources for building infrastructure and work on that regularly. Especially for soil input, water and equipment. Understand the % is going to be high for the first few years. Probably higher than you imagine. 3) What you don't know can be extremely costly in both time and money. So get yourself a good education with a focus on soil science. I find the best source of information is papers published by university extension agriculture departments. Don't be put off if the science is over your head. Keep at it and little by little the pieces will begin falling in place.
It's better to have planted and made some mistakes than to wait until you have the 'perfect' plan to plant, which probably won't work out exactly as you plan anyway! I've been planning my forest garden for years but only started planting it last year and I'm sorry I waited so long.. Thanks for the insight

Extremely helpful for the orchard I started yesterday in Nova Scotia. Best advice, not to use Locust as my nitrogen 'fixer'.

Observation is definitely #1! This time when I bought my home and land, I made myself not plant anything until I had observed and took reams of notes on the property. I watched where the sun's path went all year, what weeds grew where to tell me about my soils, how the drainage was in different areas, etc. My big learning mistake was growing what I knew how to grow back East! Gardening in the Pacific Northwest is nothing like gardening in Ohio, Illinois or Colorado! Duh! 🙄 I had huge crop let downs then I started talking to my neighbors about what worked for them. An expensive mistake!! Thanks for sharing your wisdom and passion!!

I actually halve spacing but im growing my orchard in a different concept. Mine is more a actual food forest. I want trees to overlap and create canopies. Im not completely worried about high production but I have made some of those mistakes mentioned above like not planting enough of what we eat, planting in small sections first and focusing a lot of my time on too many different species before getting the basics down pat. In the last 6 years I've learnt a lot and changed the way I grow and plant dramatically. Still need more apples though 🤣🤣🤣

Use ground cover in the isles, manufacture it from your orchard as you prune it. Chip it and use wet stirred grass clippings, spread it, start in a spot and build it thick so the grass and weeds are dead. Spread out from there. Smother everything that isn't what you want and turn all the "free" space into a large flat composting mulch. Whole thing retains water, keeps the the roots cool in the day, warm in the night and when the bottom starts composting you get fertilised garden. Now, go the extra mile. Go buy edible fungus spores and seed you mulch in the shade of the trees. Seed it good, make your edible fungus the dominant ones in your micro-ecosystem, and get a harvest everytime it rains. Your perrenials will love it if you choose the right fungi to put beside the right plants because the fungi will simbioticise the perrenial by tapping directly into the nucles of their cells with their micilia. They'll farm your perrenial for sugar by giving it nutrients and both organisms do better for it. They'll even medically tree for infections and find them substances to get rid of parasites if it's available from another plant close by. It's wild.
13:30 -that pear needs to ripen, fall off (or be picked up) and left to "rot", ferment. Then it's so sweet wasps love it.
Thank you Sir! I've learned. I dream of my permaculture garden. I don't loose hope.
This applies to flowers too...and other plants/shrubs too even ornamentals! So need this!
A cousin developed a walnut orchard. He choose a 40' spacing; allowing a square planting. The benefit for us, we hayed the floor one direction one year, the other the next. Thus we could maintain the ground, leaving a small space he needed to maintain around each tree.
I bought an orchard 15 years ago. I can relate 100%!
Funny you should mention black currant. I’ve had one in a 5 gallon pot for years but couldn’t come up with a good spot for it & wasn’t using the berries either. It took 3 years to find someone among my local friends that wanted it. Gave it to her last week.
The pears probably need storage ripening. I have a variety like that as well. They sweeten up while they get softer.
My biggest mistake was to almost forget about flowers for my insects and for food (and my own soul). Letting some wild flowers just come as they liked (or inviting some locally:) was fine to start with, but in Europe we lack lots of species due to mountains locking/extincting them during Iceage, there isn't so much here going on in July or from September on, so I think it is absolutely great to introduce some beautiful strangers in my garden. Especially dahlias are not only vain but many make a delicious crop, eating tubers or big flowers as salad, commercially you could sell them for decorative purpose and they are very easy to grow, even I manage within my snail paradise...

Table grapes should grow well then. Why fight the site? Grow what grows like weeds.
For fruit trees, grafting is an awesome option if you like multiple varieties of 1 fruit but don't want 1000 trees. I can get 3 apple varieties from 1 tree and I don't need to worry about having buddy trees for cross pollination. Or I can have a plum/ apricot tree. Getting sire branches may be annoying, but if you reach out to the community there are bound to be people willing to let you take cuttings.

I wouldn't get to hung up on the N-S or E-W orientation, that mainly applies to mono-cultures with all the plants of the same height. I use the Frankentree grafting approach for testing fruit cultivars, 5, 6, 10 per tree. Nuts are more difficult to graft and can be longer lived so they still get tested as singles. Over the years I've slowly learned to treat certain species as temporary garden items rather being too attached as permanent trees, at some point attempting to keep the old wood manageable is more trouble than replacement. Most fruit trees that are grown for fruit (not as large landscape or specimen trees) should be viewed as transient and replaceable. Not quite like annuals, but they still eventually get over grown or a better cultivar or root stock choice comes along. Just don't be afraid to replace. (On the flip side don't replace so often that you never get a full crop. I know folks that never seem to let trees get more than 5 years old before changing their minds.)

I was surprised that you didn't mention anything about choice of site ..How many times does one hear about sun facing slopes, water harvesting features, gravity water flow, adequate rain fall, distance to markets... My desert block is very flat ( 10 -20 cm fall in 100 m). This means using electricity to pump water from the well to holding tanks and pools and to water. Not very resilient. We have a housing estate near by and often people jump the fence and collect our pecan nuts when they see us leave the block. The heat around the summer solstice is above 39 degrees Celsius and it can be -3 to -10 degrees Celsius during the winter dawns. It's hard to keep life stock alive when the temperatures are extreme. It's also hard to grow greens during the summer. Like all aspects there are always two sides of the same coin... some thing beneficial and some disadvantages...
