Since I've seen people talking about farming saw this video on makeing a small gardon in his closet. Nothing major but nothing to scoff at ethier

2020-02-02 05:08:46 UTC  

Thanks dude, looks good

2020-02-02 05:21:05 UTC  

Good that it focuses on providing a constant supply too, instead of like a once per x weeks harvest

2020-02-02 05:21:10 UTC  

was concerned about that

2020-02-02 05:22:24 UTC  

nice way to add dailey greens into your life.It does seem like the guy did just jumped into it without much thought and he was still able to get greens.

2020-02-02 05:23:53 UTC  

I wonder how doable this kind of setup is for something more calorie-dense like potatoes
Of course there are a lot of other variables there like weight and shit

2020-02-02 05:26:58 UTC  

beans could be a goods source of protein and they take around 2 months to ggrow

2020-02-02 05:27:29 UTC  

do you grow them in soil? or do you jsut sprout them into micro greens?

2020-02-02 05:28:45 UTC  

im not sure which one would be better, but micro greens are much better in terms of calories/growing time

2020-02-02 05:29:20 UTC  

What other stuff have you grown?

2020-02-02 05:30:01 UTC  

ive grown tomatoes mint and strawberries but i havent done any major hydroponics

2020-02-02 05:31:22 UTC  

Ive tried those before. Ive bet that mint has gotten wild. pretty hard herb.

2020-02-02 05:32:11 UTC  

its still on my windowsill after almost 2 years

2020-02-02 05:32:24 UTC  

thats pretty cool

2020-02-02 05:34:16 UTC  

My family has grown potatos, strawberries, blueberries, hops, peppers, cucumbers, and aspriagus. all with varring degrees of success.

2020-02-02 20:42:46 UTC  

if ya want to save a shitload of money

2020-02-02 20:42:54 UTC  

potatoes are 50 cents a pound

2020-02-02 20:42:58 UTC  

egs like 20 cents each

2020-02-02 20:43:01 UTC  

beans and rice

2020-02-02 20:43:28 UTC  

eat those for your meals now and use that+ couponing to build your stockpile

2020-02-02 20:44:13 UTC  

personally i mainly keep rice and beans, but i also like poptatoes because of their versatility, and nutritional value

2020-02-02 20:44:26 UTC  

+am irish so i mean gotta honor my ancestors

2020-02-02 20:48:23 UTC  

how do you keep them for a long period of time tho

2020-02-02 20:48:36 UTC  

salt, drying, canning, pickling

2020-02-02 20:48:55 UTC  

the real trick is you can grow em indoors easily

Can you post this in <#673371545325928508>? I'll pin it

2020-02-03 00:51:33 UTC  

Sure

2020-02-04 17:28:59 UTC  

What do y'all do for long-term protein storage?

2020-02-04 17:30:15 UTC  

i die

2020-02-04 17:30:29 UTC  

Most of the protein I eat requires refrigeration (fish, eggs). I have an Excel spreadsheet of my pantry (I'll post the template here later if anyone wants) and the macros break down to like 60% fats 30% carbs 10% protein

2020-02-04 17:30:51 UTC  

Because again, almost all my protein isn't in my pantry

2020-02-04 17:32:43 UTC  

Protein powder perhaps?

2020-02-04 17:33:01 UTC  

You can also get protein supplements in the form of chocolate bars etc

2020-02-04 17:33:25 UTC  

properly stored dried meat can last for months maybe even year
