Gardeners React To Gardening Hacks That...Work?

11:00 This was my project. The original aim was to mount the laser on a drone instead of wheels. It would automatically detect and map the locations of weeds in pastures/farms, and then zap them (and then check back on them in a couple of days to see if they need a re-zap). This is back in 2018. As a research student my project originally was to identify the most effective laser source for this application. But given how much I learnt about the spectral signatures of plants, I also ended up helping them to use hyperspectral imaging to delineate weeds from crops. Unfortunately my contract expired during covid lockdown and haven't been able to find a job either in physics or agriculture. Anyway this selective approach avoids injuring the crops, and may provide a real alternative to herbicides...

I found a slow water dripping pipe from next to our A/C unit and I can't afford to fix it so I put some melon seeds in the ground where it drips and left it alone. That was in mid July. So far it has a 3 foot vine and 7 flowers and I haven't done a thing. I can't wait for the melons to come. I'm gonna put pumpkin seeds there next.

I know someone who put a brand-new, clean septic tank in the side of a hill to make a bunker/root cellar. The tank was cheap because it was unusable due to a crack but that was easily patched.

when I was an archaeologist I dug up egg shells that were well over a hundred years old. so there.

I want an entire video of Kevin and Jacques reviewing million-dollar farm machines.

I’m from the Faroe Islands and I can confirm that I know some people who plant potatoes in wool. We have so many sheep here, that farmers have too much wool (point being that the sheep aren’t sheared to provide for the potatoes). It works just as well as burying them in the soil.

The part of the wool is probably the skirting, which is the “junk” wool that may be stained, or contain too much vegetable matter and/or animal waste.
