Nature's Golden Ratio: Sunflowers and the Fibonacci Sequence

Learn what the Fibonacci sequence is and the golden ratio, and how spiral seeds in the head of a sunflower relates to that. Natures mathematics is simply amazing!

Grafting and Budding: A Practical Guide for Fruit and Nut Plants and Ornamentals

Hi, I'm Kalem, and this channel features all sorts of unusual and exotic fruiting plants with tips of how to successfully grow them. I'm interested in all things gardening and love growing my own food and all types of edible plants.
I live on a 2 acre piece of land in New Zealand where we are turning a grass paddock into and abundant, edible paradise and food forest! So come along on this journey with me as I experiment with growing, and try to push the limits of what I can grow. I'll share with you my successes and failures so hopefully you'll learn from them and have a go yourself! Come learn with me and Subscribe to join this awesome community :)

The pattern also is one of the reasons why nature is so beautiful, because it's consistently attractive to our eyes

Amazing! The world needs more people like you. Very informative. 🙏❤🌻🦋🐝

[kennstransky]

An educational channel now! More please.

Man, this is so good, it just makes me want to trow a steel ball 😊

Holy shit I’ve got a sunflower 🌻 head hanging to my right drying I’ve just lifted it to check on this and it took a moment to see it. Now I can’t un see it . WOW !!! Ive been shelling them for the last week and could not see this at all. Man that’s cool. 👍🇦🇺

[BryanPenfound]

Sometimes we see the Lucas numbers in nature too!

Man i dont know that sunflower can unlock tusk act 4 to

It's a beautiful off track note.
Sometimes we must stop and look at nature even in our kitchen garden 🌻 🌻 🌻
Kalem please continue with some interesting notes.


I'm planning to grow 2 different ornamental sunflower in the near summer season.
One white and the other dark brown.
Question is:
Do you nip the growing tip to get a bush or leave it to grow straight up

Its amazing how the golden ratio is literally everywhere, if you look even more closely

[Thee-_-Outlier]

Fibonacci and golden ratio are scalor invariants. This is their purpose in nature. Golden ratio is an asymptote to fibbonoci. They work in conjunction with flower of life and mandlebrot which are entropy scalor invariants using collpase and expansion. These all anchor around platonic soloss as the reduced semantics if the system that impart invariance to the whole. This is how sacred and fractal geometry really work. Thisbisnthe tip of the iceberg. Thise were examples of the archetypes. The archetypes themselves are unconstrained version if the same transformation. Locality/environment dictate which constrained instantiation of the archetype is used. This is all depend on orderes of magnitude of complexity which gives rise to emergence thru collapse expansion mechanic resolving entropy

[drrachelblackie]

Wow that’s cool as bro. From the Deep South. (Kaiwaka 🤣🤣)

[sharonhoffer]

I’d say those plants were the inspiration for the maths!

[Udhu_XOXO]

So God was a damn good mathematician.

[hhh]

Yeh the reasons they grow like this is so that seed/peta/whatever can catch the most light or water.

[JrodGtar]

Fabolous example of God's creation! Such a creative God. Praise the lord God for his creation 🙌🏼
