Your previous videos really inspired me, I have been trialing my own Organic home production using soil as well. The premise is I have a mushroom farm and chickens, plus my soil based farm that I am trying to swap over to cover crop like alfalfa as a fodder/worm food. So when the mushroom substrate is spent, I throw it in with a chicken coop, they manure on it, then it rests until it goes into the worm bin, then into a pasteurization pile, then mixed with 33.3% with coco coir, and 33.3% mushroom sawdust substrate. The mushroom substrate being a living organism will bind the other substrate together into a plug, so I dont need a net cup, and it reduces the amount of debris. I then place these into NFT gutters. The reason I have obsessed about this is I do not own my own farm, so I've spent thousands on soil ammendments and had to walk away from my development. This way I have a recycling system and if I ever have to move, i can hire a dump truck and remove all the compost piles and worm bins to the next location. Also soil, while it requires filter, the nice thing about it is if there is a water issue, the plants have a little moisture time stored in the soil block, as well as having fertilizers that don't need to be water soluble, which often cost less.

Thank you for the update video, I enjoyed watching it. A new technology that could accelerate progress is a UK company called 'Infinite Power'. They go commercial in 2022. They advertise the ability to generate green electricity 24/7 for decades with little or no maintenance and it will be the cheapest way of generating power ever. Very simply they have modified a solar panel and put it in a metal box with a radioactive stick. The 'solar' panel generates power from the radiation. A 1m cubed box will generate around 10kw and is modular so stack them together and you've got yourself a power station that can be built anywhere in the world. They've done all the R&D and prototypes made. The first factory is currently being built. It has the potential to make wind and solar obsolete and remove the need for grid storage batteries.

There are plenty of opportunities for staple crops to go big in this technology. With what I'm more skeptic is with trees like avocado, apple, cocoa and so on.

Phase 3 plants are not grown because they are delicious or especially nutritious, but because they are relatively easy to grow, provide merely adequate nutrition, and provide foods with long storage times. Rice, wheat, millet, etc. They are not necessary. And it's hard to believe indoor growing will ever replace outdoor growing for grains. A seed per pod for ... rice? No. A seed per pod for tomatoes?

We should consider vertical farming because current methods are at the point of diminishing returns given that China has pig farms that have multi floors of pigs like pig sky scrapers, and even with those Chinese businessmen are buying up farmland in America. We are hitting the wall essentially. I really recommend the people who want to pursuit this technology for environmental reasons to not talk about it for environmental reasons because boomers will try to turn this much needed technology into culture war nonsense. As a conservative who was born in 1991 I don't want to carry 30 year old baggage. I know how my elders work in their minds. They treat everything like a football game. Regarding nuclear power, right now the millennials & Gen Z who're environmentalist are trying to pivot away from the Boomers & Gen X anti-nuke environmentalist who're using the sins of 1st generation nuclear power plants built in the 1960s to argue against building gen 3 power plants & likely actual commercial fusion power plants in the future. Basically people are using technical problems of nuclear power to argue against solving & eliminating those technical problems. I like the concept of vertical farming & lab culture grown meat products but I don't want to risk instigating the furthering of this culture war nonsense which has paralyzed the country, If people are smart with their wording in their arguments then there are no limitations besides technical that can be solved with time & effort. Just watch what you say around strangers with your promotion of this technology.

Im most interested in the crisper gene editing of the plants more so than the vertical farming itself.
