You two guys are very funny, and you're doing great! Thank you

[danielquickfingers]

Olá manos, excelente trabalho, obrigado!
Wanted to know, isnt it always better to plant from the seeds, and not from the trees as you mentioned in a video during the course? Or some seeds don't sprout so well?

[luiscarlosrodriguezleon]

Hi, great content one question whats the orientation off the rows? N-S or O-E?

[akeem]

What fantastic knowledge you guys have. by the way, what is the name of the tool you use to dig with? Thank you.

Mi favourite video so far. Just what I needed, with a couple of doubts. What's the distance between seedlings? Doesnt look even a meter!

[cactuslove]

whats the name of the tool being used around the two minute mark which looks like a double sided spade? Would love to get one!

[valmirsantos]

You planted many tree seeds next to the eucalyptus and than what? What exactly do you will do when they growing next each other? Sorry I'm starting my agroforestry in South Florida. Sorry about that, I have so many stupid questions

[dario]

Can you go more into the complexity of the muvuca bomb and the principles behind it. I see the citrus, coffee, eucalyptus & banana are pretty straight forward but how do decide what goes into the muvuca ? And can a muvuca be tailored to a specific purpose ?

[luckymukasa]

Are you guys using fresh animal manure or compost

[burnsy]

Spit it out!!! Stop dribbling on and get to what u exactly want 2say!!!
This would have been alot better with just a 2min vid
