Will Horvath from PermacultureApprentice.com joins to discuss Permaculture Type 1 Errors - in your design and implementation that you regret. Type 1 errors cost you money, time, and decreased return or increased effort.

Some of the Type 1 errors that we discuss:

  • Install a pond in the wrong location.
  • Using the STUN method on grafted apple trees and most of them fail.
  • Put a garden in poor sun exposure or a frost pocket in a valley.
  • Locating your home, buildings, or access road in a potential flood zone,
  • Dispersed or spread out home or infrastructure - buildings too far apart, too etc. far way from water, etc.
