RE: Two Full-Time Off-Grid Bloggers Here

in #introduceyourself6 years ago (edited)

Welcome to Steemit.
A major system change is about to be deployed today so there might be issues within the next hours.
The landscape looks like old Indian territory, just without buffalos and horses.

Edit: I justed checked your blog but did not find a comment section there. Nice list of regrowing plants. In Germany we use to produce sprouts also from grain like wheat, rye, barley, spelt also. Maybe you heard about wheatgrass juice too? Also, peas can produce sprouts and chick peas can too, just like beans. I'm not completely sure about lentils. And what applies to pumpkins should apply to zucchini and cucumber too.
Other plants I miss on your list but love to eat now and then: egg plants (might work like ananas?), cauliflower/broccoli/turnip cabbage (might work like plain cabbage resp. carrots), onions (work like garlic, placing them in a spot which gets some sunlight during the day helps them to get green on the inside within up to 10 days), pears (work like apples), raisins (might grow from the seeds or a branch of a grown plant), radish (probably works like carrots or potatoes as it often comes with remainders of roots), horseradish (can be grown from the rhizom you buy just like ginger and is said to grow extensively in given soil!), sunflower (seeds), peanuts, corn, some herbs (thyme, rosemary, oregano, parsley, dill, chives), mustard. Sugar beets and beet root might be handy too.
Thus, it's rather 50-60 plants than 35. :)

Hi, thanks! Indeed, the landscape is old native American territory. We find lots of pottery sherds and artifacts. Had to disable comments on the blog due to all the Wordpress spam.

That's a pity - I was intending to open a (new) Wordpress blog for myself to be able to get comments from Non-Steemians too.
