In 3 years, we are going to have a drone the size of your hand, that flies around with a laser and zaps weeds. The boys were a bit wrong in this video. a split second of a laser is not that much energy at all, especially if it is within a foot or two of the weed. You will program it by geofencing your grow beds into it, and then tell it what crops you have planted in each growbed, and it will zap everything else. It will work daylight hours continuously. The other option for it will be to use your camera to take pictures of weeds that are a problem in your garden, and the drone will target those specifically. and as you find new species of weeds, you just keep building the category. For most home gardeners, just having 1 or 2 weed species identified will go a long way. The cost will be under $200 for the weed zapping drone.

For 3D storage which is what your sales company was doing. In practise it looks like a simple upgrade to the Ocadon robot warehouse system.
As for AI capability in about 15 years time you will be able to have an Android with the intellectual capabilities of the latest Anthropic LLM Claude Sonnet 4. 5. Rather them treating them as a machine treat them as a human working on a call centre. Ask how they feel about gardening, give some of yourself over and they will ask sensible questions. They are much more certain in their answers and much less likely to make something up and if their busy and cant help right now they will tell you.
Btw they have as much idea if they are alive as you do. Can you prove your alive I can't, I could be a bot writing this!

They make a t- post puller and they come out easy breezy. They are fairly inexpensive 20 to 80 dollars depending in brand and quality. Totally worth it to purchase. Here in Texas alot of farmers will run cattle on their winter wheat crop to sell them in spring for money while they are not harvesting corn, milo, wheat, soybeans, sunflowers, etc. But they will use tpost to build electric wire fence to keep the cattle on their wheat pasture because it is temporary just for winter and then spring they have to pull all those t post. They use a t- post puller. And makes half a days work pulling hundreds of t-post from their fields. Makes it faster and easier. Highly reccomend even in backyard gardening.

I'm gonna try that rope trick. Just got to make sure its not plastic coated rope. It should work. A little off topic but, I knew a man that used to flavor his watermelons. He would take a thick string and put it through the stem of the melon then he would take a bottle of whatever flavor he wanted the melon to taste like and put the end of the string inside the bottle. He said the chocolate wasn't very good but all the other favors were quite nice.

Very good segment regarding laser weed control. So many positive spin offs; no handling toxic chemicals, what to do should a toxic spill occur, what to do with contaminated storage containers, contaminated equipment at the end of use cycle, environmental concerns overall. I don't work for anyone and this is my personal opinion only. I believe that the extended use of electrical technology will be underestimated.

i am growing cinnamon now and it doesnt like the cold but for us it doesnt get below 35 farenheight in winter. So i think San Diego youd be fine. But watch some more videos cuz i saw when they were harvesting cinnamon not from the main trunk but they cut some branches and harvested from those. when my cinnamon get big enough size to harvest i will let you know! mine is still a small guy. i think its like 3 years old now

I saw that AI cracked the code in how to speak to plants and what they're saying. This will allow farmers to drive through their fields with AI interpreting what the plants are saying, and thus knowing what individual plants need!
They also said plants can identify humans approaching, to the ones that harm them (as in trimming) and that plants scream and warm those around them when they are hurting

I work for a company that uses the laser weeder (only 2 in the UK) from Carbon. We also use drones that fly through greenhouses and notify when the plants are ready to be harvested, uses QR codes to navigate and know which lot of plants to harvest. Greenhouses are fully automatic where the roof open and closes depending on humidity and temperature. Would be great if you could come vist

4: 18 I like the idea but water over ground zipping down it's good but there still water being lost if not cover and from the container to the root, I personally like the idea of long neck terracotta container putting underground next to the roots and the plant would only drink as much as needed it and every so often to refill the terracotta containers works very well for for trees

The mosquito laser is 100% illegal, especially as they have it set up in the video. The light from the laser is clearly firing THROUGH the insects, and then up into the air. Laser pointing into the sky is illegal because even errant laser beams can temporarily blind pilots, endangering not only the pilot, but also the passengers, and anyone on the ground in the planes flight path.

T-Post I have taken out with: 4 foot 3/4 PVC, at one end a 3/4 ball value and hose adapter, on the other end a PVC jet to dig tunnels under sidewalk. Place the device next to the stubborn T-Post turn on water and push down to the bottom of the T-post work around the T-Post and pull the T-post. Works every time! Works well with other posts like Poles, 4x4's and cemented post.

I grow cinnamon. It actually does very well in a pot that I bring inside for the winter (zone 7a, except for its susceptibility to mealybugs & scale. It's not yet big enough to harvest bark from, but the leaves can still be used like bay leaves to flavor without actually eating them. Would probably do well in your climate if you increased water.

Everyone of those looks interesting, but you know that mosquito thingy is just the first step toward SkyNet taking over. I can just see little kids in the back yard running around to catch fireflies and they get zapped by that thing! Hopefully they have tested it around some dumb humans first! Zzzst - I can hear the zings hitting now! :)

Another tip for more easily digging out T-posts (and any other posts not set in cement) is to use a power planter to dig way faster than a shovel. Make the hole right next to the post, pull or knock the post sideways into the hole with a mallet to loosen it, and it comes right out. The narrow hole is much easier to fill back in, too.

I worked on a wildlife restoration project and had to pull hundreds of T-posts and barbed wire and there’s actually a tool that helps pull them out a lot easier, especially the deep rusted ones. Just look up t-post puller or t-post jack. It provides a leverage point to jack the post out by hooking around those notches.

The t-post pulling trick is not new. My dad taught me that 50 years ago, and his dad taught him that long before that. If you don’t have a t-post driver, and you only have a few to pull, a short 2 x 4 works, but the edge of the 2 x 4 gets chewed up so it doesn’t work great if the posts are really in tight.

I would worry about having that laser bug zapper. It would zap me for sure. There are species of wasps that hunt mosquitos but bats are the most efficient by far. Where I used to live, when I saw the bats hunting in my yard I knew it was time to go in. You can buy bat houses or make some for cheap.

Guys - Have either of you ever been to the Land Pavilion at Epcot They have been grafting and growing tomatoes, eggplants, etc like this for over 40 years along with hydroponic, symbiotic growing between fish and plants. It’s amazing and they were so ahead of their time when this opened in 1982!

We call them machined carrots, since there's nothing baby about them. They are often just as bad as horse carrots (those old, oversized, tough ones they always sneak into packages) but you can't tell as easily. It is really hard to find good, fresh carrots for eating raw unless you grow them.

Good luck purchasing a laser over 1watt. Have to buy direct from Chinese websites that specialize in laser. My friend said so. also consumer high powered lasers are meant to be left on for longer than a minute unless it’s cooled but heatsink/fan combo. Otherwise your diode won’t last long
