Improvements

 It appears some 5-7 marjoram transplants are going to make it through the winter, this is the best one and significant as not to long ago I had trouble growing this plant, and now i'll seed small patches during the next 8 weeks to catch that perfect 10 days to germinate and begin growing.



I made this mini seedling greenhouse and have basil, marjoram and some cauliflower and they will transplanted to their new homes as soon as they are able and ready.



There are no freeze warnings here for the next ten days and we may only have 2 or 3 for the rest of this year.

Video Update

 I am not only experimenting with full blown organics, the video side of operations has been questionable at best and so with some improvements I shall upload some old and some new and probably add explanation of  these file at a later date.

Introduction to a hopeful new year of prosperity

  I've been farming something every year for nearly 4 decades, tried about every method known to mankind, have attempted to reduce the amount of time and effort required to successfully farm, have farmed both the north and south, but not until now have I admitted that chemical farming alone is not only unsustainable, but damaging to the environment and if done long enough, is showing signs of permanent damage. I will leave the damage done and response to it for another day and now focus on the organic side of farming, occasionally adding some chemicals for balance but never enough to wash out of the soil and towards the ocean as industry does today. This topic is also a study as to just how much organic is enough so as to obtain the results desired but not over due the cost or available resources at hand. I prefer to start with a financially stable crop and once positive results are obtained, transfer that data to the remaining crops desired.  Which is why different gardens, differ

Admitting You Have A Problem

Proving unsustainable farming practices and being able to convince industry and politicians of the destructive ways of these practices, are two different animals. And this is why I shall use my blogs many topics and posts, to educate and be used as evidence against gvt to force a change in this, and other, faulty regulations and poor legislations. Making the decision to transition to an organic farm is a difficult one indeed, and is not done until all other options have been completely exhausted, but the will to carry on exists. I have found myself in this exact position and should my results be positive (as a few are seemingly suggesting they will be), a case against the dept of agriculture will, or probably should, be brought so as seeing to those responsible for regulating industry properly, do properly regulate industry. Currently around here it is illegal to operate a self sustaining organic farm but only once a case is made, can it be presented to the courts, this is the prim
