Self Sufficient Me is based on our small 3-acre property/homestead in SE Queensland, Australia, about 45kms north of Brisbane – the climate is subtropical (similar to Florida). I started Self Sufficient Me in 2011 as a blog website project where I document and write about backyard food growing, self-sufficiency, and urban farming in general. I love sharing my foodie and DIY adventures online, so come along with me and let’s get into it! Cheers, Mark 🙂

Keep it simple and straightforward…Always my goal with gardening.
You should grow some giant timber bamboo.
dont kill them with love
Burns the roots. Found out when I added too much growmore to a house plant. Killed it within a week
Great tips! Thank!
And just like that, you have become my spirit animal
Why do this to your fans,red S leads them to all kinds of crap…frown…
Hi sir, are you aware of the work of Dr. Vandana Shiva in biodiverse farming. If so could you make a short or a video on it.
We learn so much in our gardens, nice getting great advice and ideas from those with a great deal of experience. All part of the fun, problem’s this year I didn’t have last year, learning how to fix them, selecting plants for my particular space and sunlight.
You cannot over-fertilize if you do not use fertilizer that is formulated to literally force feed your plants. Feed the bottom of the soil web and let the soil nourish your plants. Gardening can be a hands off experience, all you need to do is put the plants need first. Just like serving a community.
i learned from Dr. Elaine Ingham that that soil, in almost all cases, has everything plants need to grow, and we just need to promote the microbial and macro soil life to convert it to the bio-available forms the plants can uptake. Compost tea !!
"Too much exercise has never killed anyone….but why take the chance?"
Hell yeah. Grows the plant too fast for it's roots to keep up with and more importantly ammonia/nitrogen runoff is just terrible for the environment.
Love this dude…
Curious does that apply to slow release organic fertilizer?
YESSSSSS! Another wonderful and funny short! You're my favorite green thumb and I hope someday I'll be half as knowledgeable about growing food while trying to live my best life like you do.
I'm currently unemployed living in a tiny apartment supported by my loving fiance, so each video you post gives me something to look forward to when we finally have space to call our own..
Youre my fav…
Struth bru
Thanks Mark
