Prices are already ridiculously high on vegetables. Do these folks think I can't grow my own??

This makes me wonder about a commercial I've heard 3 or 4 times now on the radio. They are talking about how the shortages last year made people start stocking up. If you listen closely, they infer that you better keep on preppin because the bad times are a coming.

Took me really listening to it several times before it really sunk in. This is a classic rock station in Colorado.

99% of the urban population don't know how. It does take a few years to be good at it and make it repeatable.

Garden is in, chicken are laying and 200 head of hamburger munching the grass that is knee deep.

I see ole crazy eyes is at it again... of course everything is going to go up just listen to The Farm/Ag show on 1040am WHO every day at 11am central time, you can get it online. And I wish people here would listen to it because I don't have the time to give a daily run down but things are really dire in Brazil right now which is going to have a bad effect/affect on the US.

Yep, garden is being put in >>>>taters, peas, onions, radishes, in and growing; asparagus poppin' out of the ground; plants ready for all my herbs and healing herb garden, maters, peppers, eggplant, corn, beans squash, (3 kinds) melons, okra and strawberries.

Just planted 4 hazelnuts, 2 pecan trees, 2 new peach trees, with 2 already growing and ready to bear fruit this year, 3 blue-berries, 6 raspberries, a hedge of blackberries already bearing oodles, and a second apple tree to pollinate the one already in the yard.

Got hens already laying steady and 50 more babies on the way. And two goats. Next weekend I plan to get rabbits from the animal swap for the 10 hutches I already have built.

Just got in my electric fence yesterday from UPS. I am as ready as I am gong to be!

IF things keep going as they are now my garden looks to be the best that I have had in the last 7 years
If it ends the way it is starting we will be able to put up (canning -freezing-drying) at least 60 to 70% of our vegetable needs--possibly more--with the half of cow and fish and wild game our needs will be small
I am cautiously optimistic

 

[shortstop]

I put mine in too! I put in- pole beans, peas, lettuce, kale, radish and parsnips. I'm trying Brussel sprouts and cauliflower- which I think will need more tending to. It's all fun learning and helps the budget. I'll add flowers for the pollinators bit later. Someday I hope to have a much bigger garden but for now... I'm having fun!

I have a great deal of respect for farmers / ranchers as I see what they have to do day after day in order to maintain their life style.

What concerns me is the problems they will have if things really get expensive. I can imagine those 200 head disappearing one or two at a time. OR worse, some idiot just carving a piece off of them.

Most people won't and they know that. Add in the effects of the COVID lock downs and the fairly high risk of severe droughts in the main growing areas in the country and prices are going to go through the roof on top of the roaring inflation the leftists are going to give us.

I've been amazed through the years by people I know who once kept a garden, but at some point decided to quit doing it and then gripe about the low quality and high prices on produce. Who knows, maybe some will get wise and get a graden started now before it smacks them up side of the head.

You speak the truth.

I can not believe how good the veggies we grow taste. Are we able to grow them all? Nope!! Not even close. We specialized on peppers for the last few years and we think we finally got it right. Now we are working on getting lettuce / tomatoes / green leafy salad items to grow and grow well.

With that one item and a bit of cost/benefit determination, we can now make half a dozen things that we consume that used to cost a great deal to buy. For us they usually cost less than half of the cost to buy.

Do we cheat? Sure, it costs little to buy a dozen #10 cans of diced tomatoes where we are still looking to grow them well.
But I can store 3+ years of processed tomatoes at a low cost and replace it easily for now.

You do have to pick your battles when growing veggies. Yet almost anyone can grow enough of a couple of key items to make it worth the while. It will teach them how to be ready for the hard times.

That message is missing or unheard by most of the world.

Keep at it.

After a few years you'll be surprised what all you can grow.

I've gardened for food since I was a small child with my family tribe. A few years back my sister and I moved our big garden to my middle daughters place for the main stuff we can, but I kept several raised beds and added in a bunch of tote gardens (rubber made tubs) on my place. I've already had green onions, lettuce, spinach and radishes several times this spring and we still haven't planted the main garden yet.

My tomato sets started from seed are doing well out in the sunroom as well as some other things with the rest of the starts out at my daughters. The only thing out there are potatoes.

My wife started a small hydroponic setup during COVID and after several failures finally figured out lettuce/greens. It's a start and it sure tasted good last January. She's since enlarged it and is trying new things as well.

The big secret to outdoor gardens is your ground and really learning the little tricks of your micro climate. Read, study, experiment and improve the quality of your soil. Learn to expect failures from time to time.

It's hard work at times, but opening a bag of frozen sweet corn or a ball jar of full flavor tomatoes from your garden when the snow's blowing outside makes up for it in taste.

You are on the right track for sure- Learn what grows well and build on it.

Dont forgt that as food prices rise so do feed costs. Figure out what you can raise to supplement feed.

Yeah the micro climate is the key. We have some strange issues in our area. I am used to S California that you can grow anything at any time. Here in SE GA you really need to pay attention to the NPK or you are dead.
