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.

  • We have just started a Survival and Preparedness message board at

    SurvivalandPreparedness DOTCOM

    A place to share information, learn and meet others.

  • Jesus is coming soon! The only way you need to prepare for an "apocalypse" is by surrendering unto Him and following His Word NOW before it's too late!

  • Yes He is coming soon, but no man knoweth the hour except the Father in heaven. If you think you are going to be raptured out before ANY trouble then I suggest a better study of Matthew 24 and Revelation. Even the small book of Joel has some clues to cross reference. Yes you need to know Him as your personal Savior and know His word.

  • Sure, the world and worldly people are most definitely waxing worse and will continue to until the fulfillment of that Blessed Hope we call the rapture. I don't mean to say you're wrong for how you're planning for the worst, I just wanted to emphasize the most important step, which it sounds you've already made.

    God bless.

  • I think we are both on the same page :) Lord bless you also.

  • Hey, what about dog feces? We feed them a dry hard nugget (with water). The feed does contain some sort of beef by product. However it's low in chemicals.

    Can we use this in our compost pit? It cooks pretty good, we always overwinter before use. Two winters for human consumption. (I'm lazy I hate turning). Oh and since last fall we seem be worm people. We got a few worm buckets last winter and covered them in leaves and sheep straw in the old pit. Looks like several gals of castings now

  • Most recommend against dog manure for the meat/chemical reasons. Your call on that. Worms are great, we have piles of them in some of the garden areas. Despite the fact that I was told if you "ever" use "any" commercial fertilizer you'll never see a living worm, we have TONS of worms. Vid of some of them in one of the later Gardening videos- 15 or 16 I believe.

    Sorry you're having so much trouble with this troll. Since he adds nothing to the discussion I'd just block all his aliases and delete his comments. Of course he'll keep coming back but if you keep deleting and blocking him, eventually he'll go away. Trolls need attention like plants need water. When they don't get it they wither up and die.

  • lol finally someone else who realizes how HARD it can be to garden. i have been growing food since i was 11, and it seems i am blessed, for what ever i plant grows. :P but back to the point, its good that there are people out there sharing their knowledge. power to you, and pray the end either comes soon or never at all ^^

  • @PQRLOVE Dog poop is fine. Steer clear of cat manure due to a shared parasite, but even then a fully worked & aged compost pile will reduce that risk down to negligible levels.

  • the best animal to keep in this kinda of situation is chickens

  • @SurvivalReport Thank you for acknowledging Mathew 24. Jesus mentions the elect in those versus which indicates that we may be going thru some hard times!!! Alot of people ignore those scriptures in favor of the hope of the Rapture. There is nothing wrong with being prepared and able to help others in the event of an emergency :-) even if a 'Rapture does happen.

  • @desertbard, grow anything you can while you can. The bill s510 was singed today and this bill will remove small farm and Gardner rights. Look into buying a biospharm in a free country away from the US government. Search the Biospharm channel here on You Tube.

  • Perennials started now would be a great help. Many of your berries and fruit trees will help out alot

  • On the pesticides seriously consider the variety and breeds of different items to significantly reduce or eliminate the need. For example don't plant a single type of apple tree, tree 2 or 3 different varieties that have different pluses and minuses. This type of stuff takes _years_ to start to reap so more time spent planning on the front end will reap you more later.

    Also, for individuals getting started keep in mind cross pollination and make sure to space your trees and plants accordingly.

  • Awesome video, it'd be great if you had the ratio's of food per person, ie how many rabbits per person or chooks or whatever. Hopefully you've got a video about your fish ponds, farming fish for survival is serioulsy professional.

  • This gardening series is very good information, and should be very helpful to a LOT of people. The more others are growing their own food, the less there will be showing up at your door.

  • We have llamas, they produce an amazing amount of fertilizer and leave it in a nice neat pile too. :)
