Always get something useful out of your fine expanations, Zack. Thanks! One thing important is, so you say anyway, that it only took you a few years to get it all growing. People ought not gloss over that though. A year or two is a long time to be hungry while you try to figure out how to grow what you eat. Better to figure out growing food while there are reliable alternatives in the event it happens that there aren’t. This was true during WWII and evident during that supply chan lockdown. think people need to hear that. Not at all sure you agree. Also, wondering if you’ve experimented with any perrennials? Ma Nature can maximize a grow into whatever the current season gives you with perrenials and save you planting time. Daubenton’s Kale could be a good one in your battery house, and might work in a high tunnel with enough covers? Said to be hardy to -15C, a plant lasts UP TO 5 years, in France and UK they are harvested almost year round and, as you know, kale is as desirable in a market garden as in a kitchen garden. If you could make that kale work I know It would be worth a try here. Hard to find though and mainly sold as cuttings because rarely flowers. I see it on ebay but maybe you would know a trusted supplier?
It does take time to be able to grow a wide variety successfully. But there's a ton of crops you can easily grow your first year if you set up No Dig and watch a ton of my videos on crop selection. It takes years to be a master and I'm not even close to a master. Plus I'm talking about growing in a garden at home in this video. It took 4 years to build this farm but a farm is much different than a garden.
Your fall seeding calendar shows the last planting date, correct me if I am wrong. Can you add another column that shows the earliest planting date. This will be critical for sticking to your advice of keep planting.
Yes. I have full annual schedules in my Gardening course. The fall calendar is not mine it's from Johnnies. To my knowledge nobody has made the annual version like I have and I think the reason is its really hard. But basically you just need to combine the spring and fall planting calendars for your climate and you'll have the full year.
true...but at the very least it is (potentially if used and preserved properly or sold) the same as having NOT spent that amount of money for that food.
@@Nova-m8dyes it does when you understand that money not spent is equal to if not better than money coming in…I get what you’re saying as well but if you grow that much food do you not think you could at least sell 30k worth lol which is what 70% of working America makes a year

Harvesting $86,000 worth of food is not the same thing as selling $86,000 worth of food.

@@bloodlove93 His only reason for creating this channel is for money so talking about eating the food doesn't mean anything in this context.

@@shakeiljones5184 You didn't eat $86,000 worth of vegetables.
$86,000 was my sales. We've produced way more than $86,000. Stay tuned next week I'll have full video explanation.
