Took the last couple years and tried new techniques for growing the veggies. Most important thing in my book is soil remediation after harvest. Fertilizer may become more expensive it’s already one of the leading expenses.
Comfrey is a great solution, its NPK is good…N 1.80. P 0.05 K 7.09. That’s for russian comfrey which doesn’t spread like regular comfrey.

We start our seeds in grow tents in our garage which we ‘converted’ into our first floor basement. We’ve moved some of the garden inside the house. We’re going to try to grow lettuce and tomatoes inside under a grow light with exposure to southern exposure. Then we start our peppers, cabbage, tomatoes in the grow tents for establishing ‘starts’ for the bale garden, greenhouse and the raised beds.

Then it’s the medicinal foraging that’s going to be important. Around me we have Prunella Vulgaris growing profusely, it’s a kinda wonder herb.

Red Clover, Meadowsweet, Red Raspberry leaves, Bee Balm, Dandelion, Plantain, are all medicinal herbs we use to ward off sickness and boost our immunities. We got all the vaccines and along with our medicinals we haven’t been sick for years.
