in determining probable production costs for growing microgreens, i have a question….do you use your soil only once, or is this reusable? …i imagine that there is a point where unharvested seed might "contaminate" the soil by inviting bacteria/fungus/mold…
can you screen out the seed base?
do you recompost the used soil, and start fresh each time?
thanks
Taxation is not theft if you want to live in a society where police,fire,military etc are the responsibility of someone else and not yourself
I just picked the ones you suggested, no way you can fail with cherry tomatoes, spinach and lettuce.
Hi Curtis, thank you for sharing this, very important! I have a suggestion, or more like I am curious: if you rate these characteristics 1-5, you give them different scores, but you still treat each of them with equal importance right? Or do you additionally allocate a "weight" (say 1-3) to each characteristic according to its importance in an additional column, and then multiply it with with the rating before adding them all up? Just asking this because you mentioned the high importance of "Popularity" for example..which you say should even be treated as "crucial" – thus having higher importance than others.
dollar bills is what makes a crop profitable
Aye Strawberries fit the criteria
I have watched several of your video and love them. I got into this because we just started a raised bed for home use but now you have sparked an interest in the potentials for expansion. However first things first. What is the best configuration for yard. Trees or shade verse open space? Want o figure out the best placement of the beds to maximize growth. Thanks
Just wondering, wouldn't it make more sense to calculate the dollar value per foot for each crop, rather than the weight yield?
Worried on out government taking you money, go and live where you don't pay tax , then tells us how good are the schools ,roads hospitals.
First rule of business is to provide goods or services to the customer that they want or need at a price they're willing to pay. It's the customer doesn't buy it, you can't sell it.
Have you ever grown eggplant? And if so what do you thank about it.
love the videos but why 1/2 pound per foot?? does price per pound not matter???
Planate Earth
Awesome information. Thank you. These prices are to restaurants and wholesale, not to the Public in Farmers Mkts, or is the pricing the same for both?
11:30 Good summary.
I am thankful to you for this great video and great book I still didn't finish it yet but believe it or not I already started to gather data in a spreadsheet I am happy because you are teaching us & you are a great great example of success in this life style commitment. So thank you
very nice and helpful,would like to know spacing of lettuce in raise bed.kindly advise.
I'm from BRAAAAZIL BRO, keep punch and congra!
The link took me to this package and it said not the book
Where can i buy the book?
so veggies follow the preto distribution ?
Really glad to see there are so many videos on farming here on YouTube. Really is the Information age when I can sit in a Van in the Highlands watching a video about crop profitability on my phone.
Cherry and Juliet tomatoes follow the first rule mostly
I would suggest another item for your checklist: Competition.
If something meets all 5 of your parameters for a "good crop", but there are 15 other farmers selling it that you will have to compete against at every turn, it's probably not your best option.
Thank you
Great material, stop freakin walking back and forth! Christ, I was carsick from watching you.
Excellent! I am working my way through your videos. I am digging potatoes in my backyard garden while listening to you. I recently purchased your book. Have a great day!
dude I so needed this inspo, good luck with your farm!
This info is really good, it shortens the learning curve
Interesting, thanks.
I can't make a list because I have no idea how fast everything growing and what my price per pound is. I don't know even how much does it cost to grow(
