Ep. 93 - How to Avoid Permaculture Type 1 errors with Will Horvath from Permaculture Apprentice
About this episode
Will Horvath from PermacultureApprentice.com joins to discuss Permaculture Type 1 Errors - in your design and implementation that you regret. Type 1 errors cost you money, time, and decreased return or increased effort.
Some of the Type 1 errors that we discuss:
- Install a pond in the wrong location.
- Using the STUN method on grafted apple trees and most of them fail.
- Put a garden in poor sun exposure or a frost pocket in a valley.
- Locating your home, buildings, or access road in a potential flood zone,
- Dispersed or spread out home or infrastructure - buildings too far apart, too etc. far way from water, etc.
