About Vegetable Farming

A DIY guide to making the best organic fertilizer for FREE, using Urine and Worm Tea! Don't store your urine to long, or it will start to smell. Put any excess urine on your compost pile. ( Although apparent longer term storage with tanks is possible ) NPK of typical urine is 11-1-2 but can vary depending on what you have consumed to perhaps 15-1-2. Some composting toilets actually have urine diverting systems built in enabling urine collection for fertilization purposes. Once you have mixed your worm-tea and urine simply apply with a waterer or sprayer. Worm tea acts as a natural innoculant for your plants.

One of my goals when I started this channel earlier this year was to show that you can grow a lot of food without spending much money. Our biological approach to improving soil fertility - which relies primarily on compost, vermicompost, mulch, and compost tea - costs almost nothing. Saving seeds also helps us keep our costs down. Despite these savings, we do have gardening expenses, and this video gives a quick overview of what we purchased for the garden in 2013. One Yard Revolution is all about growing a lot of food on a little land using sustainable organic methods, while keeping costs and labor at a minimum. Emphasis is placed on improving soil quality with compost, mulch, and compost tea. No store-bought fertilizers, soil amendments, pesticides, compost activators, etc. are used.

Build a ( DIY ) cheap greenhouse with mostly left over materials. I'm Hoping to grow all organic food and become self sufficient eventually. Only took me about a day to construct once I gathered all materials. Here is the link for my follow up video to show updates to this greenhouse! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HmJMe85_pfM To do this even cheaper, you could skip the wood on the ends, and just cover it in plastic or use pallets that you can many times get for free. You could also forgo the metal frames, and use 1" PVC that would make it lighter and more mobile. "Rather well," was my catch phrase of the day...lol All I have left to install is an internal heat source, which will be a wood fired rocket stove that uses 1/3 the amount of fuel as a typical stove. To preserve the wood I used propylene glycol ( Pink RV Antifreeze that you can drink ) In the video you can also see my worm bins & temporary chicken coop. I hope to grow majority of my own food. It is healthier and cheaper. The food will have no pesticides or preservatives; organic. I can also eat it fresh, meaning the day its picked vs weeks or months old (supermarket). Fresh food has more life energy. This is just another piece in the puzzle on the road to self sufficiency. Thanks for watching and please comment!
