Key insights about video Gardening with Woodchips: What, Why, How and Who? Back To Eden Truth

👀 The back to Eden gardening method doesn't work for Wanda and Danny due to ants, termites, and weeds.

🌿 Termites and carpenter ants are prevalent in their area, making it difficult for the back to Eden method to be effective.

🔍 The termites and ants live in the soil, and even with a layer of mulch, they still manage to infest the garden.

🍂 Certain types of wood chips, such as Cypress heartwood and some cedar, are termite-resistant, but caution should still be exercised when using them.

🌱 Weeds can still grow through six inches of mulch, even with the back to Eden method.

🌾 Wanda and Danny practice conventional gardening, using a hoe to pull weeds and planting directly into the soil without mulch.

👨‍🌾 They have a large garden spanning about three acres, which makes the back to Eden method impractical.

🧑‍🌾 The old-fashioned methods of pulling weeds and tilling the soil have been effective for Wanda and Danny, proving that there are alternative approaches to gardening success.

🥦 They have successfully grown and canned a significant amount of food from their garden and have reduced their reliance on store-bought vegetables.

❗️ The key takeaway is that people should find the method that works best for their specific environment and circumstances, and not be discouraged if the popular back to Eden method doesn't yield the desired results.
