@@friendlytravelsp5516 In the 60s, the KGB did some fascinating psychological experiments.

Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else awas at hand?...

THAT concrete pouring to the cellar and leveling it was worth at least 1,000 thumbs up or more :) That is a true art and one of those jobs people take for granted and have no idea how hard it is to do. Hard hard work. Love the pantry always love tours. I also stored a lot more things this year than my normal storage. Butternut squash is my favorite too. We have lovely local farms that I support every year to top up my garden crops. I went crazy this year with squash. But it feels good. Also stocked up on local honeys and maple syrup. We are fortunate to have local crops of that too and I love to support them. I also canned a lot more than normal, and I am now fermenting. But I did not realize you could ferment beets. I am going to try that really soon.

My Mom got tired of trying to get the men in the family to build us a cellar...so she put the kids to work digging a large cellar between some fruit trees. The guys keep telling her NOT a good place, but ... that just makes Mom determined. She called for cement truck after she had the wall "studs" or forms in place. Unfortunately...Mom had missed a few things in her 1970 Mother Earth magazine plans...and we had a cellar with a Mom and 4 kids trying to smooth the sides and the roof and well lets just say we had a very unique cellar. The side studs were not all up and down but some almost diagonal cause they fell over. Don't ask me how...I was just a kid being used as child labor. LOL. The floor was fairly smooth...but the top of the ceiling was a tall bald mans nightmare. And Mom thought she might as well use ALL of the cement she paid for...and added another ft on top of the cellar which meant we had a concrete bunker thing...and it was lumpy and cement dries really fast in 100 degrees...so we had the lumpiest bumpiest ugly patio looking thing sitting between the peach tree and lilac bush. Too uneven to sit and sun in a lounge chair...LOL! Dad came home and was NOT amused at what we did. WE were so proud of our cellar cause now we had a cool place to sleep thru the tornado warnings. I ended up buying the house when adult and I fixed it up as a root cellar with ventilation and better stairway access. Worked great even with crooked studs and lumpy top. Hubby thought we needed a mock machine gun turret on top to do it justice.

Hey! Great video showing your root cellar. I just finished building an earthbag gravel floor root cellar! I won't be using it until next summer when I hope to build my house over it. If not a house next year I will at least put my ger (yurt) on the concrete slab over the entrance. I hope not to have difficulty with moisture since I am in Mongolia (maybe you noticed "ger" earlier) and the cellar is located in an area of a bout 13 inches of annual rainfall. I have closed up the entrance and covered up the slab for the winter so I hope there will be no bad surprises for me next spring when I open it up to air out. I am in the midst of making a few videos of the build. These will be the first major videos on my youtube channel so I need to come up with a decent name etc. Well, thanks for the information and inspiration!

He planned to build a canning kitchen on the top one day. The entry door was on the side of the of the dirt mound that was back field in. You went thru two sets of doors to get to where the food was. They used it for years, they even hung the deer meat for a couple days in there to cure. It burnt in 2014, she has a new canning kitchen but never rebuilt the cellar. The one you guys built is beautiful, impressive concrete guys. Thanks for showing us around. It was very inspiring.❤️

It will have the opposite effect than you are looking.

Been a "little" busy the last few months since Mr. B passed on to the next stage of existence. Was glad to go back in the video history to see how your Root Cellar has evolved. My son, Derek, and me have been evolving the design of the house & garage to be built at the farm, too. Since we live in an area where tornados come thru once every 5-8 years, we have decided to build & place the Root Cellar/Storm Shelter under the Breezeway between the house & garage with an entrance from the house basement and a Bilco door from the back vegetable garden area. In preparation for building with ICF's Derek is working for a Concrete Company to become familiar with terms & techniques for working with the concrete construction crews. P.S. My MIL had a bench seat box that she used for storing her potatoes in the basement. She kept the potatoes in apple bushel baskets in the bench box.

Have you guys ever thought about growing the einkorn flour. I would be so curious to see how that turns out and if Doug could instruct us on how to dehull the berries ❤️

Yes I’d like to know also. I can’t seem to keep the basement cool enough. And we don’t use heat at all down there.

I can’t say for certain but most root cellars are between 30 to 40 degrees. So I’m guessing it’s somewhere in that range

Butternut squash is my favourite for shure but also see if you can get gem squash seeds. They are very popular in South Africa although it looks like they are a native of South America (like so many other veggies). The flavour is lovely, it keeps well and is about the size of a softball. When cooked you can scoop the flesh out or you can fill it with ground beef, creamed corn or whatever you like. We usually eat them with a blob of butter and salt and pepper. I'm so happy for you having that root cellar!

I really appreciate that you videoed the concrete process on this (& other projects). My late husband and I poured a perimeter foundation on a studio we built years ago. Hard work, but doable. BUT THEN we decided to try some flat work, making a berm skirt around the studio. We made a complete mess of that! Then we hired the pros and while I was bummed about the water money and work we did at first, that experience has given me MAD RESPECT for these concrete guys' skills and experience. And that's crazy how they maneuvered that concrete truck into place!!! So impressive! Love love love your channel, Doug and Stacy! ❣️❣️❣️

QUESTION: After my ferments are complete can I use a regular screw top lid to store my ferments rather than the flat with the ring?
