Survival Gardening Part 2 peak oil, TSHTF, food storage
Posted on September 20th, 2008
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.

September 19th, 2008 at 6:06 amThat’s the general idea, however it isn’t exactly true in practice. The idea is that seeds from hybrids you’ve grown, because they have been “crossed” will not be exactly like the parent. That being said- most peas and beans and squash hybrids can be reused (we have anyways). If your having trouble finding non-hybrid, try some of these and domesticate them. We have some seed reused for 4 seasons that were originally “hybrid”. That being said, choose non-hybrid where you can! Good luck! SR

September 19th, 2008 at 6:06 amYou know, rude comments sure makes someone want to give there time and money to teach people…. You know, being there seems to be so many comprehension problems with people, things HAVE to be repeated a few times, EVEN THEN someone comes with some off the wall comment- “you didn’t cover X” when in reality it WAS covered but they just didn’t pay attention. If it bothers you so much you don’t have to watch Stephie

September 19th, 2008 at 6:06 amI really don’t understand why people criticize these videos, I’m sure the person/person’s that put together this series has a lot of things to do and the very fact that he/them have taken the time to try and HELP and educate people cannot be questioned.

September 19th, 2008 at 6:06 amEgg Zach Lee. Prior planning prevents poor performance. Great to think “everyone” would be an asset to a community but reality proves just the opposite unfortunately. We’ll be talking more about this subject here real soon. Thanks for watching!

September 19th, 2008 at 6:06 amGee… 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!!

September 19th, 2008 at 6:06 amSo what about the folks in your “community” that don’t prepare? What about the leaches that will STEAL what you’ve worked hard for? Do you honestly believe EVERYONE in your “community” will share when no more of anything is available and not just when it’s cute’sy to do so? So can your “eco village” support the entire community around it? What about the people who refuse to work? What are you going to do with them? What about when they DEMAND food even though they aren’t working/helping?

September 19th, 2008 at 6:06 amWoah, everyone’s getting all staunch and ranting on about guns…! You’ve got to get the community involved in it, I really think thats important. Get the community involved and you have the community’s support in the long run when it all goes pear shaped. It can’t be each to their own - this in the long term is uneffective. I live in an eco-village and we already trade with the local community, have been doing so for years and it’s working beautifully. Peace to all and good luck!!!

September 19th, 2008 at 6:06 amOther than the laser beams on the foreheads of our attack chickens you mean?
We are training the rabbits to be suicide bombers. We figure the “ahh what a cute little bunny” approach will fool the looters, when they reach down to pet the bunnies they will detonate thereby dealing with the looter. Just having fun with it! Thanks for the nice comments! SR -

September 19th, 2008 at 6:06 amYour posts are awesome, and you have a lot of knowledge. I am curious if you have some knowledge or techniques on guns, ammo, and such? Relating to a SHTF scenario. Thanks

September 19th, 2008 at 6:06 amThat’s true, people that are stupid enough to buy homes they can’t afford aren’t probably smart enough to find a patch of land somewhere and guerrilla garden. Lazy people don’t like effort. Not trying to be trite but the saying that “where there is a will, there’s a way” really is true in this application. Also, carrots and beans don’t take 30 years to mature. Most house evictions take a while. When SHTF and you loose your job- you fall back on your PREPS. Thanks for the nice comment.

September 19th, 2008 at 6:06 amGreat advice if you OWN land outright. Most people are upside down on their homes or are years away from paying them off, when SHTF and you loose your job what do you do then? Look at the mortgage crisis right now, its already happening. Again let me say its great advice you are ahead of the game but the way things are going I don’t think it’ll be applicable to a large number of Americans.

September 19th, 2008 at 6:06 amOK, sorry you didn’t make much sense in the other comments either, so understand ahead of time that I can’t really understand your comments. Short fat bald technologist be insane. ???
Where in the heck did I say we “only eat fruit and beans?” Wow, I realize a lot of folks now a days lack comprehension skills, but when did I say that? First off, I’ve shown WHEAT and soybeans we have growing, second off, who says I have or WOULD show “everything” we do. Sorry but I can’t understand you. -

September 19th, 2008 at 6:06 amWhat I am trying to understand is are you only eating fruit & beans. I mean I would post more videos excepting for kids being in them of actual what we call growing a garden. With less than 1 lb of bush beans our family of 4 ate mid July to now & we are still eating beans 78 quarts + 40 large blanched freezer bags. 1100 lbs of tomatoes, shall I go on. I’m just a gardener sorry. I mean forget it if you eat like a goose you will poop like one. No pillowy soft in oil crunch. Meat, clothes..,.
