    Nate from Garden like a viking says that pine needles don’t change the ph of the soil, it’s plants themselves who change the ph around their roots to their prefered level. That does tie in with what Paul Gauchi said about different types of plants and trees being planted next to each other in his garden and all doing great, just add organic matter to feed the soil.. Great talk 🙏

    The hardest part is simply FINDING the varieties to buy. There are almost no nurseries anywhere in Tampa Bay selling any of these varieties.

    Kia Ora, I’m keen. I live in Whangārei NZ and have been gathering nursery stock for sub-tropicals. I’d love to start a syntropic agroforesty business on existing dairy farms. To bring NZ farmers alongside. I LOVE the possibility of reclaiming monoculture pine land.

    The peach is probably a florida prince, we have them in hawaii and they dont need any chill hours. You can air layer them easily, even small branches. Also btw a super underrated subtropical fruit is garcinia xanthochymus, should fruit well in florida and NZ. Its a sour warhead fruit, kinda similar to tamarind but with a creamy mangosteen texture.

    You can also activate the endocannabinoid system through exercise and certain natural things like cacao. Echinacea binds to the cannabinoid receptor site and tonifies it. Combined, assists anxiolytic properties. Its nice learning about new sources of shared phytochemicals!

    Wow, I finally got my dream to buy 5 acres on a very tight budget, scraping nickels together almost literally. I started with growing trees and my first garden this year with an intention to grow as much food as I can. I just learned about permaculture. This video convinces me, you need to be a millionaire to buy a LOT of seeds and plants you will never use. You need to become a botanist to spend endless time to learn about plants you will never use and you need to spend all of your waking hours planning and planting. No thanks. The beauty of forests is they grow on their own and don't require a life commitment to become enslaved to the land. You have made me feel like battling weeds is a blessing.

I live in the low desert of Arizona and it's hard to find information for that type of area but this showed the fundamentals in a way that I could apply them in my area.
