I Need to Share this Here as Well
YouTube has changed a lot in the last few years, and my traffic has dropped significantly. Below 50% actually and falling. There are so many creators now, all competing for views, and with the rise of AI, they say we will have countless more coming to compete. There are a zillion choices to watch already, and I am not sure if I can compete in the coming age to keep it all viable. I had been holding off on creating this video, but I have always promised to be 100% real and honest. I am a little sad about it all, but we will just have to wait and see where it goes from here.

Sorry to here this Marty as you are my favorite and in australia, why do we not have many in australia? I look at a lot of avacado videos and most are in California, none in australia we need some in australia because our conditions are different. The other thing I don't like is their talking winter we're going into summer.
Growing avacados
Hi all, I'm in Perth getting conflicting information on growing avacados. Planting In the ground: Some say Dig a big hole add good quality potting mix then plant it in the ground. Others say don't plant them in groung with organic matter use sand well draining soil. Other say use decomposed granite (DG) this is not here in australia one man said in australia we call this cracker dust but that's not true either? Planting In Pots Some say leave it in a pot for a year or 2 for the tree to mature. Sounds like good advice. Then some say use good quality potting mix with sand and perlite. But then i hear the perlite floats to the top when watering. Others say use only sand then fertilizer from the top. Some say use wood chips for potting mix. So I'm really confused here as I've just bought 3 avacado trees a sharwel, a Lamb Gass, and a fuerte and I want the to have the best start. Any advise appreciated Thanks Joe

@Marty Ware thanks I tried to dig deep 2 meters but so many roots and rock it nearly killed me, I went as deep as I could, my soil here is sandy Perth soil, so it should be well drained. I'm going to apply a good potting mix with the ground sand and perlite. Ta Joe

CONNECTING WORM FARMING INTO YOUR GROW SYSTEMS
Did you know that by adding worm farms into your edible gardening systems you can take your whole garden to the next level? With today's growing costs at the supermarket, I feel it's time to bring back the Worm farming gardening systems and cross them over into the courses and my content. It's such an awesome way to grow food at home in a sustainable cost cost-effective manner. Any gardener can do it, whether you have a large or small space, and it's not too time-consuming. You can make fertiliser for delicate seedlings and give them an amazing head start. You can feed pots/ containers and provide a solid nutrient boost to mature plants to help with overall plant health and production. In the seed-raising course, I go over different ways to use worm casts and worm liquids and I plan to cover this in more depth over time. You will notice in the course materials that I will mention ways to implement and use your worm farms to get even better results. I feel that more and more edible gardeners are considering taking this path. Are you one of them? Maybe you're all already worm farming and having success, but what if you could master it even more? I would love to hear your thoughts below in the comments. Happy Worm farming Marty

Hi Marty, one thing I've noticed when im now giving my worms a little flour they seem to be bigger?
What Edible are You Excited to Grow this Season?
For me it’s Ampalaya this is the Philippines name for it! We call it Bitter melon. I will try and eat it again. I am growing it as my wife and her friends love it. I also want to challenge myself to see how many fruits I can grow on one vine. Our vine is pumping. Would you like to see an update video? Let me and others know in the comments which edible you are excited about and why. Happy Gardening Marty

Avacados, I love. I break my fast with it every day and it's a real enjoyment for my day.
Slaters & strawberries
Hi guys, I have a slater problem in my strawberry patch, I've heard you can sprinkle coffee grounds around which I've done, but they are still getting eaten. Is diatomaceous earth a good oprion? I know it works, but is there any set backs?
