It's awesome to support the kids even thru this difficult time😇
Can you put the okra leafs in with the pig's?
We show our pigs at the fair we live in Missouri and I am 11 and make $900 a year.I did not make that !much this year because of the pandemics.but I did get a summer mowing job for a nabor.
Four members of my family were in law enforcement. Thank you for you service!! None of this "Defund the Police crap!!"
Holy smoley! 🌩🌳
A little dawn and water in a spray bottle will kill aphids.
When you going to install the machine shop? Maybe Rufus is attempting to stop any conflict. I've seen dogs get between people they love to stop them fighting. Not saying Rufus is that smart, but in his own way he may just trying to break you up.
Thanks for the update on things...I. enjoy seeing how well things are. Thanks for sharing!👩🌾
For the afeds, take tomato leaves grind them up add some water to the mix and put it in a sprayer bottle give it a shake and spray it on the bugs. This is what l do and it works great!!!!!!!!!!!!! Good luck.
Just a suggestion. When you do a fish clean and cook. Why not do a Tomato fry along side. That would be great to watch. =)
The ‘pandemic’ is ELECTION DEFLECTION.... The marxist dems couldn’t find some way to knock out Trump so the phony COVID aka flu was the next step
Plant carrots or Queen Ann’s lace near the squash to attract the squash bug predators
Lady bugs eat afids
If lightning strikes that close to your home I would recommend you think about having a lightning rod installed
If Weston had a good time playing in the game then I would say it was worth everything you had to go through
Hey Daniel do you know my Buddy Jerry Cason? we work alot of 2 meter ssb together
Have you thought about a fan mister for a cooling station?
That hog smacking kills me,,so funny🐽🐖🐷
Love okra, onions, celery and tomatoes together. NICE!
Use neem oil
Roofis is a protective animal by nature I believe . I’m surprised he lets the dogs near the other animals! Have you ever seen the video from Imasurvivor? “Run Maggie run”? About their alpaca and their dog Maggie it’s pretty hilarious and the video went viral! Well they actually have two alpacas now.
I wanted to tell you what I FINALLY found that works on aphids, squash bugs & potato bugs! In a spray bottle of water I add 3 drops of Dawn dish soap, 5-8 drops each of Rosemary & Peppermint Essential oils. I sprayed once a couple months ago. I haven't gotten any back.
You are really good with animals!! You a vwry gentle demeanor
My grandfather grew watermelons top of an old flatten sawdust pile from his sawmill. He grew cannon ball type up to 48 inches round. There was a small spring under sawdust pile.
Try using a fork to scratch their back. Saw that on one of the vet shows. By the way, love the donkey poodle shirts. I love watching 👀 your videos, very educational and family oriented.
Wow you have a nice place first time to see it all. I only been on the page about 2weeks great videos.
Howdy 👋 to the Arms Family Homestead! I’m a new “watcher” to your program, and am enjoying it SO much! I’m retired now, and don’t really have a whole lot to do...some sewing, church events, pets to take care of, house chores (😏). Then when I’m ready to sit down and catch my breath, I usually have been turning on old cowboy movies because the rest of the channels...well...not worth my time. I’ve seen those movies so many times I recite the script with the movie! So...I’ve been looking for something new to watch. I happened to be browsing the Internet, and found your program, and I’ve been hooked! I think I’ve seen all your recent videos at least twice, but now I’ve found where prior videos are listed so I’m going back and watching earlier ones. I am an animal lover, and I just LOVE it when Bear and Bella come up to you and schmooze while you’re talking to the camera! You and DJ have beautiful children, and it’s fun watching them on the videos, too. God bless you and your family (and visitors). Time to walk my dogs. Later...Sheryl
Aphids dawn dish soap and water and wash plant top and underneath they'll come right off
Rufus is a riot! Lol!!
Rufus is telling you he wants a bath. Lots of water on him, might help keeping him out of the water. Cute!
Thanks for service and enjoy your retirement. Beautiful family and doing a great parenting your children. God Bless
Get lady bugs for the aphids
Just wanted to let you know how much I enjoy your channel. It has given me a lot of info to help on our homestead. Also thanks so much for introducing us to Premier One! Those little squiggly things for joining panels and making gates is a lifesaver. Keep up the good work. Bless you and your family on your new journey!
Love the farm update. We're city people and it's very interesting what you do there. Thanks again.
Ladybugs eat aphids. Maybe you could find a place to buy some. Get the ones that are red with black spots
rufus is cool.
i admire a man that takes care of his family and his home,,,
hey just saw you on tv,, controlled burn???? pretty sure it was you lol. fyi my wicking tubs working great thanks to you all, n leon
You need to add a bathroom in the shop.
I'm sorry about the aphids. They've always been a battle for me, too, here in Tulsa, until this year. Try not adding any compost or fertilizer next round and see if it helps. Stefan Sobkowiak has a video titled "Aphids are a good indicator of..." that explains why too much nitrogen can cause problems. This year all I did was put a very little bit of rabbit manure in each planting hole and a tiny sprinkle in the soil block mixture and I can't believe the difference. No spraying, no sluggish plants (they're actually the biggest plants and fruits I've ever grown). God, I hope it keeps working. What if it really is just that easy?
I posted a hydroponic video on my channel
I’m really inspired and motivated to do farming on a next level from the first time I watched your videos 💪 keep doing the great work wishes you, family and friends all the best throughout this year 2020 🙏 watching this from Jamaica 🇯🇲
It takes 12 months for a donkey to have a baby
can't keep a kiddie pool clean with ducks around either... lol
Mask do nothing . But God bless Weston in his future.
Get those donkypoodles a pool! 😍
Who is westin i heard you talking about,your child or relative or friend?
Lol no thanks no beard for me😆
I know you are no longer a state trooper but I feel after watching your show and seeing how you are. That you should run for you local sheriff's department as sheriff. Not real soon but I feel you have a lot to offer as a leader and you would be able to control your dept to best serve the county leading the way on your fairness. Think about it but for now enjoy what your doing now
Your okra and tomatoes look great...
I like the beard! I think it looks great on you. That lightning struck tree is really something. I have had a lot of lightning strikes too, but usually I just see a ribbon of bark stripped off. It has never split one of them in half. That's pretty amazing. I just subscribed a couple weeks ago. I think you have a beautiful family. It's really good to see a family that puts God first and offers no apology for it. That is exactly what we need to see more of in a world that seems crazier every day. We need to see more REAL life, and less anger and hatred. Thank you for providing us with an oasis away from all of that. I truly enjoy your videos. And that Rufus sure is a character, lol. I know alpacas are guardian animals, and it's obvious he takes his job very seriously!
I follow another rescue group that have Alpacas too. They are in Texas and they mud up their water troughs and buckets all the time too. And they love being hosed down as well. Guess their thick fur, even tho its short, is still pretty hot. Their mountain heritage they probably like cooler weather. I know the alpacas here in Canada do just fine all winter outdoors here even. A tough animal I'd say.
Had some high winds that took down a serious pecan tree on my fence.
our area got hit pretty hard. Glad you guys are all ok.
Should have got Kuni Kunis😀👍
Pink saran wrap draped over watermelons make them grow monstrous
Daniel put the tomatoes in a brown paper bag and they ripen.
so wheres your farm storage going to be?? build another barn??
Order lady bugs they devour aphids.
Daniel, are you doing open cell or closed cell? I just had my shop sprayed with closed cell. Closed is very pricey! It’s looking good!
I love y’all’s channel so much and the donkey poodles!! ❤️
Hi Daniel on freedom is her tits waxing over if so she's going to have it maybe three or four week's and love your videos keep up with the great work. I've been around animals my intire life manly horses and cow's.
an inch of vasoline around the base stems will prevent the ants from carrying the aphids up the plant. Pick up some lady bugs to attack the ones already on the leaves, and aphid problem solved. Works quite well since without the ants, they are defenseless.
Enjoyed seeing the farm! My dad owned a dairy south of Ada, and I loved the animals. We didn’t have the variety you have - mainly just Holsteins. You have quite an interesting group! I love the donkey-poodles! 😍
Put some of this sealer on the exterior where the metal and concrete meet before spray foaming. Just extra insurance in case the spray foam doesn’t completely air seal the base of the barn. uzworld.info/player/video/qaLKnd2HoMSmpZo
Great reason to remove all trees that are within 30 feet of a house. Damage from storms are nearly always.... trees!
Putting end cards up over the last part of the video is really irritating when you're trying to watch the video and have these idiot end cards covering up everything. I was trying to watch Weston play basketball and couldn't do it. You're not the only channel that does it. Most of them do. But I don't know what it accomplishes other than to aggravate your viewers.
Your uncle leaves you can give to your pig or your animals
Someone send rufus a kiddie pool
Oh miss having a garden. My backyard is a cemetary the wildlife way out numbers me. But the bright side my farmers market gets alot of my business.
I love your channel. We are looking to start raising goats and you have one of the best sources of info on UZworld.
What type of tomatoes are those?
What is The AFH Snapchat
what will you do with the Alpacas and donkeys ? Seems likes worthless animals for the farm
Thanks for the animal update everyone's looking really good, that Rufus! Silly thing, I'd separate Steve till he's used to you and doesn't act skidding any longer, those piggies wanted your fingers for a snack! What did you have on them? Oh yeah you picked the garden before visiting them they thought you were a scooby snack, lol! Much love from So.Cal.💟
If some one you love dies was it worth it to play a bit of basketball? Just saying.
great update, shop looking good, animals are doing good. we had a buck that I Feld back this year for breeding, I think he will be a big boy. thanks for sharing.
We had lightning hit one of our trees in our backyard about month ago we live in the city it literally was just a few feet from our back porch
Where are the goats daniel ?
another spray for garden. (Monterey LG6240 Take Down Garden Spray) spray at til light to prevent killing bees. get at amazon and others. permethrin and canola oil
Omg huge wind
Hi Armes Family homestead could'n you make some mugs like your other merchandise Love from Maja
Make up soda gallon water table spoon soda,little oil,& soap,spray your plants kills some kinds of bugs 👍👍👍
Maybe get some ducks for your garden. They will eat the bugs for u and leave the plants alone. Congratulations on your retirement. And thank you for your service.
Loving the beard!
Great update! 👍👍
You should try fermenting your feed for the pigs they enjoy it more and you get better conversion
We feed the pig kitchen scraps. We hardly have to use any feed.
You could make the big old shop dog have screen above the 4 ft mark and have a huge screen door
Cut the vine off with it.. and you will have the taste of vine ripe tomatoes.
You should get turkeys.
That is a wonderful garden!
I just had a thought. You and family need to come to the Alabama deep sea fishing rodeo next year
The twisted chards up top is the telling tale. We had one just like it.
Spray insecticide that’s what we spray on our pumpkins
Loved see the farm glad nothing but the tree got hit God Bless y’all
that shop is phenomenal..love all your animals..this is only the second video I've viewed; but you have a wonderful story to tell.
I think I’ll take your advice and grow out the beard.
I think I’ll take your advice and grow out the beard.
Get a bunch of Ladybugs. They have them at Home Depot!
