alternative we are

I am surprised he is till being given a platform to speak?
He is 100% right about the public being fed 2+2 = 5

I have no doubt the brainwashed would start believing in Santa again if the MS Media kept reporting it!

GB new mate.

Since December its like the ropes have been cut, like theyve been given the green light to speak freely.

Mark Steyn is under investigation from Offcom - for having vaccine injured victims/ relatives affected by vaccine injured family on his show...But GB news still havent pulled his show and hes getting bolder, as they all are.

we have a ripe strawberry already

we are harvesting all our caluies before they go bad or get attacked as they are all about 6-8 inches across...we plan to blanch and freeze most of them

I am also helping a workmate to build a poly greenhouse in his garden.

caulies all harvested and replacing with purple broccoli in this bed.

beetroot 3 inches across to be harvested today. we have had about 12 ripe strawberries so far, they seem to prefer being in pots and above the ground in hanging baskets. will rig up a new system for next year.

like the cut of this mans jib.

yet another top up.

Woke up feeling spooked.

So, I'm off to the shops with 1k to spend on tinned food and have decided to purchase some spirits to barter with latter...

Oh, and chain saw has been serviced.

My amazing wife has become highly skilled in a short period of time.

Her next goal is to learn how to jar food safely and start buying in the equipment.

Oh, and other good news, Ive started a new site decient rates and have been placed on the technical facework with a good fella as a buddy. So no more heavey blocks for me

With all your fruit and veg would you not invest in a home alcohol distiller instead of buying alcohol? You make a recipe like this hard cider, then distill the cider to make apple snaps. You can follow the same directions for cherry, pear, peach, plums, berries.
If you use vegetables you make a wort like beer instead of a wine. Distill this and you've got poiteen. High starch veg means you've to add less sugar to get alcohol eg potato, turnip, swede, beets, corn, radish...

It's a great way to reduce waste by using up peels and windfall. Make sure to add campten pills to stop natural yeast making your cider vinegar.

No you are exactly right sir.

we intend to start making our own alcohol. Its on our to do list (although long, getting smaller...)

The stocking up on spirits is to use for barter if the economy nose dives before we have time to implement distilling or alcohol becomes probate or hard to come by.

This links back to my first post. We are preparing to be physically ready for anything, - we feel like we have been psychologically prepared for a long time now.

Nice link by the way....

Oh, and we got 2 punnets of ripe strawberries from the garden today for the kids. Half of my dinner tonight we have grown.

All is well. the broccoli was a disappointment, but we are trying the purple version and igloo cauiles now.

We even have cuecumbers growing ell...moved from the greenhouse to the side of the house still in pots doing well.

my wife, currently doing shopping on line confirms milk has increased 12% in a month, rice 20% and some basic range is being replaced with more expensive items.

the water is at ear level. Will there be a tilde wave? will the water just keep on rising?

I was in Cyprus for 11 days. My Purple Sprouting Brocolli was just forming a head when I left. My dad claims to have watered my plants "once or twice" in those 11 days, and I made sure they were well watered before I left. I came back and it had flowered, and the ground probably drier than the dirt in Cyprus.

Tomatoes looking well - full of flowers that hadn't been fondled in order to get them to pollinate. The fruits that had set have grown nicely. Fed and watered them.

Daikon radishes barely grown - again, lack of water.

Rainbow chard - couple started to bolt - lack of water.

Beetroot not grown - lack of water.

Serves me right for going on holiday.

we were lucky, have had approx 70 beetroot ready to harvest

we had the same but with half of our sprouts - bolted and gone to seed. Not to confident we will get any sprouts this year.

Cue cumbers outside and now growing rapid. all the cuecamelons and cape gooseberries now out side and doing well.

plan to buy everything we need for preserving this month. have been realistic and given a budget of around 700. will be worth it.

garlic up and platted today.

empty beds ready to go again.

we plan to grow another type of Kale as well as caulies and broccoli. If the s@@@t hits the fan in winter we will be pleased we did.

for those stuck and cant move on with BBC fear news... have a video of this lovely man from GB news.





I find myself working on a new site with a great new bunch of boys...almost all of them awake. This in contrast to the last lot - 47 out of 50 were sold. Happy times, good conversations and guess what? almost all of them are growing food in preperation Weve been swapping stories and insights as well as plants

The Great Reset in full swing, there is no stopping it now!

I was planning on having tons of gigantic beetroot pulled out of the ground months ago. I just thinned them out and pulled out the biggest ones, which still aren't as big as I would have liked. Will boil them up later, or maybe add with other veggies tonight to go with the roast chicken.

Pulled out the one lettuce I directly sowed at the back as it looks like it wasn't going to do much more with cut and come again, plus I have 10 more heads that I can start cutting leaves from in about a week.

Tomatoes have picked up again now I'm tickling the flowers to get them pollinated.

Might plant potatoes in buckets, or should I put the fennel in them?

About 10 celery plants in the ground now, chard coming to an end, will give them a couple more weeks of cutting then pull them out. I'll try daikon radish again, but will make sure the ground underneath is NOT hard. You could clearly see where the roots had hit the harder ground and looked like my gentleman's sausage when it's squished against my boxers.

Celeriac ready to get planted once I have the room, as is fennel.
