Survival Gardening Part 2 peak oil, TSHTF, food storage

In a new series of video we discuss and will show methods of gardening "when it counts." The first 3 short videos detail some of the pitfalls and perils to the common survival/preparedness thinking of "when my storage food runs out I'll just grow a garden." Intermixed throughout the first three videos are also invaluable tips on gardening and food production for the homestead, survival retreat or backyard in suburbia. The first step in planning to truly grow your own food is to recognize the factors working AGAINST you, so you can plan accordingly. If your interested in being able to feed yourself from your own labor either now or after an economic collapse, peak oil, etc. then you should view these video.

After you prepare your soil, instead of covering it with tarps which does nothing for the soil, layer it with 5 or 6 layersof cardboard. It will biograde and feed the earthworms. It has to be replaced once or twice a year, but it services to make the soil better each year. It will also save on weeds.

@desertbard That's a lot of cardboard for a large area. Fire hazard and not exactly aesthetically pleasing but I get your idea.

Great information. Thank you for taking the time to share. The number quotients are greatly appreciated. How do you harvest the apples up high on a tree that is not pruned back and still natural?

[SurvivalReport]

Ladders. Sometimes you can give them a light "whap" with a stick also.

You guys are doing a great job with the survival gardening, and bring up topics i never even considered. please save your breath on these douchebags.

Gee... hadn't really thought about all those situations. Guess we could just slit their throats with our home-made knives, burn the bodies and sprinkle the ahes around the orchard... the fig trees would love that!!

I posted about permagardening on the first one. Since you mentioned trees, if you take that good size tree in the background, graft a solid fruit tree branch on it, at least 2 inches round, you can see that fruit harvest in as little as two years. Now, I wont say it aint funky seeing apples on an oak tree, but hey, it's apples.

Oh, its called "permaculture" if you want to research the methodology. There is just ton's of info about it now.

If your soil "needs lime", your pH is probably too low. Gypsum won't help that. Gypsum is a pH neutral source of calcium. You've got to get your soil in shape now, not later...

Small farmers and gardners will be regulated out of business in the US. S510 is delayed until next week so they could bribe congressmen with the 1099 600$ obamacare crap. Retreat off the US shores if there is any way you can. Biospharms are built in safe tropical countries and sustain entire famalies needs on one plot.
