My interview and microfarm tour on Youtube

robguz24 · 06-03-2015, 11:16 AM

This guy with a Youtube gardening channel contacted me about my banana growing. He gives a tour of my main lot where my house is. I start talking around 13:45 into the video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zwoix7dVd-4

Very interesting. Thanks for posting it.

Enjoyed it, thanks!

That was awesome dude!

Thanks for sharing the video. The bananas looked good - amazing how well they did even when they were 'over crowded'. It was interesting to see all the things besides bananas that you are growing. Although, I am not sure what you can do with that small amout of cotton that you can harvest....

OH Yea! This is the first time ive had time to sit and look around on the net! But I did see you interview with John on you tube as he uploaded it. I thought it was great as soon as I saw the beginning I thought “wonder if this guy is on the org?” ha ha and yes you are ! When you said Bananas.org I was smiling! Great video and I hope you get some sale s or whatever it is you would like to see happen from the video! Me being a Apple banana fan when ya said “Apple” were a good one’s I was convinced you are smart :=)

Thanks for sharing. FYI-I edited the title of the original post plus replies from microgram to microfarm.

Rob, that was great. I finally had time to watch it. I'm not a big fan of John's videos, to be honest (I get annoyed by his style), but this was the best I've seen and I enjoyed the entire video. I did turn down the volume after a while and turned it up a lot when you talked. That's great to see what you've got going there. Congrats on the PR.

robguz24 · 06-10-2015, 01:31 AM

I had never heard of him until he contacted me. I got bored watching the video because it does just go on and on. No one has ever interviewed me about bananas though, so that aspect was fun!

Mostly I just don't even bother harvesting the cotton anymore. But when I did, I would deseed them while at my market booth, and sell small bags of it as cotton balls. They got more comments and drew more people to my booth than anything.

Good job Rob; particularly if that was your first interview. You came across as very knowledgeable on the topic (not that you aren't), and seemed comfortable. Interviews can be a lot of fun; especially since you don't have to remember any lines!

Great video! You have packed so many trees in a small space. Interesting to see the guanabana and other fruit trees packed in tight and doing great.

I think John's videos are funny...especially when he got kicked out of Walmart while actually promoting the fact that they sell vegetable seeds.
