I am sure there are Farmers and gardeners on this site. if you have not heard about regenerative farming please pop over to Youtube and watch Gabe Brown, you will not be sorry. i have followed him for a while and his method of agriculture is by are the best i have seen. he mimics nature to a T. using his method allowed me to germinate in 4 days and growing like mad.

I will post some pics of my results following Gabe Brown. my soil in my garden is so rich and dark after only 5 weeks with the ability to absorb over two inches of rain and getting better all the time. i have layers of organic material that shields almost 100% of the sun. a good product i will be using is Holganix Bio 800+ Agriculture. this stuff has over 800 soil microbes that will take you to another level and 100% organic to boot. ps. how is every one doing with this plandemic?

Here are a few pics of my garden which is about six and a half weeks old old. the first pic is cantaloupe and the second pic is the cover crop of turnips and radishes that is three weeks to old. when i started the ground was rock hard and lifeless, one month later you can see all the organic material i have added inside as well as outside. the soil is now dark in color not red like before that is also so airy. i added a product that is 100% organic from Holganix called Bio 800 + Agriculture . what this is is a collection of over 800 soil microbes of every variety you can think of in one product. the third pic is my 16 x 8 compost bin that was made from reused supplies of wood and corrugated metal. it looks horrible yet will serve my purpose for years to come. as you can see it is less then half full yet has over 13 layers of soil and organic material with Bio 800 + sprayed between each layer. what this will do is knock 6 to 8 months off of the breakdown process. so next spring i will have the most fertile soil you can imagine with absolutely ZERO man made fertilizers or GMO products. 100 % natural with 100 % cover crops and lots of organic material as possible the way it should be done without corporate sicko's and there dangerous products. Ps. planning to build another compost bin next to it in a few weeks and some wood curing stations in back of them. gotta have lots of good compost for all our awesome plants, fruit trees and wood to heat the house. A board face will cover the exposed compost bin so nature can do her thing. Ya gotta love them little bugs. Regards, Marathonman

The United States is in a total lock down without declaring marshal law even though the second they declare it they are an ENEMY OF THE STATE as in TRAITOR punishable by death.
we the people need to pull their heads out of their asses and revolt against this acts of treason committed by our governments either that or live in a life of servitude. covid 19 is the biggest scam pulled on the world ever and the powers that be are completely lying through their teeth.
they are shutting water off to farmers so they can not grow food to push people over the brink to commit robbery of food just to survive. arm very heavily, trust me you will need it. in the event you do have to fire your weapon make sure it is pointed at a Governmental politician that caused the whole thing.
this is all about redistribution of wealth and total lock down folks.

My newest creation at the ranch. raised beds that interlock and secured with rebar. i built these 20 years ago and i figure it is time to use them again as three gardeners are close to 60 and over. the other end not shown has an extra place to attach additional section at any angle. i am coming up on 60 so it is time to make the garden easier to handle.
if anyone in interested i can give you the dimensions on how to build these raised beds.

Well it seems like the sheeple are fooled again so it looks like America will get a puppet pedophile for a new president. stupid people do stupid things and voting for sleepy Joe the Pedophile who sells out America to China, Rushia and Ukraine for a buck like Killary did is really a bad move. by the way the body count of the Clintons are over 90 dead who opposed or had dirt on the rotten's.
the owner of the ranch finally got it that a collapse is eminent and we are preparing for a total collapse. i finally get the 8 foot fence around the garden and drip irrigation. next years crop will be through the roof that will not only meet our needs yet make a profit at the farmers market. hell who would not buy a cantaloupe the size of an 8 lb bowling balls for four or five dollars. not just that but many, many other things grown organically.
i get an eerie feelling the power elite are planning something that will dwarf 911. just look up in the sky, the Chem trails hit 40 today. can you believe that 40 F-in Chem trail that are killing EVERYTHING in it's path.
all i can say is you better finish your device that includes myself as the end of the regular life will end soon. please prepare folks cuz i do not see it lasting much longer as the power so called elite has stated on a monument that the population will get reduced by 6.5 BILLION PEOPLE.

Been busy with an 8 foot fence around he garden to stop the local animals. since no one returned a bid on the fence we are doing it are selves. got most of the post cemented in with just a few remaining and the remainder of the fence will be in Friday. i will post pics tomorrow along with the earth bag house we are finishing and the one i am living in. Harvested cabbage, broccoli and cauliflower and i have to say it is the most sweetest i have ever had. i do not like eating raw stuff like that but with this batch it is very sweet and easy to eat raw. talk about taking my health back in my own hands the way nature intended it to be. i use Bio 800 plus Agriculture that is 100 % organic with no such fertilizers or pesticides what so ever just plan ole soil microbes. i even have the opportunity to supply a very famous restaurant next year with fresh vegetables, fruits and spices.
life is good when Corporations are left out of your life and return to nature the way SHE INTENDED it to be. Please take control of your lives people and kick Corporations out of your lives, it does make it more simple and healthier.

Regenerative Farming is the only way our world will survive without ruining our environment through killing the microbes in the soil and killing us with TOXIC CHENICALS. all pesticides and man made fertilizers are killing everything so the only choice is to turn our attention to mother nature. by following her very diversified crop count with no pesticides or fertilizers using regenerative farming can we all come out of this mind virus multinational corporations placed on us through flat out lying and deceitful practices. loads of organic material replaced into the soil, decomposed crushed granite, sand and anything else you can think of to aerate the soil is very helpful. there are many people to gather much information from and one of them is GABE BROWN. this person has smoked the farmers around him in production even in drought like a menthol Cig on a Friday night bar party. by adding all these needed conditioners to aide in the microbe biome you can regenerate the DIRT to magnificent soil. also the addition of Holganix, bio 800 plus Agriculture which is over 800 soil microbes in a single bottle which feed off of the above item put into the soil which then feed the plants raising them to very, very healthy and disease, bug resistant naturally. you can NOT side step nature and expect the F-in plants to be healthy which opens the door to all kinds of diseases, viruses and god knows what. plan your garden using the above items and you will be on your way to the most healthy garden you have ever grown. pics below are the fencing in of our garden which is my home and job on this ranch. these are the building of the fence which was using repurposed drill pipe at a really reduced price for which i fitted and welded everything. then as you see i had help attaching the 8 foot fence. the garden is going to be magnificent next year with the opportunity to supply a very famous restaurant with fresh vegetables, spices and herbs.

Have been working on Germination area at the ranch since we have the fence and gate finished. on the ranch we have a gun range that has been converted over to my lab but also in the front part we are converting to a seeding, germination area for the garden. we will also be installing a 5000 gal rain catch tank off of the roof to water our pre season plants. i will also have plant clowning area for the plants that will not produce seedlings.
the gun range will still be there as we are adding two shooting windows for that very purpose. we also replaced the roof with clear panels for more sunlight taking the old panels for the second compost bin roof. another thing we are doing is taking the raised bed and converting to 4x4 posts to save on wood making them cheaper to install with wood left over for other raised beds.
all in all things are looking up on the ranch inching closer to self sustainability. i will post pics as the projects are completed.

Ran into a few snags today like who forgot the hammer drill kind of thing. lag bolting to the cement you must have a hammer drill. pics of the germination/cloning/seeding area outside wall being built. this is the gun range that was converted to my lab and the patio soon to be support for the garden. remember in order to mimic nature in regenerative gardening you must have an abundance of organic material and LOTS OF MICROBES. in order to get there faster add decomposed crushed granite, sand, lots of organic material and Bio 800 plus Agriculture from Holganix company. link after the initial tilling you should not have to do that any more just adding organic material on top. be sure to cover will Armor ie... organic material on top to stop the sun from drying out and killing the microbes. moving forward to self sustainability. When society collapses we will be ready. Regards, Marathonman

This is the earth bag house i live in and the second one we are building. even though i will be moving down to the lab/seeding area this is where i am at now. houses are built with bags of earth and layered. i feel like the Hobbit in 2020. sustainable and regenerative living and gardening instead of raping the environment, working WITH mother nature, not against.
