I will tell you some secrets for no other reason than to jade my family. I am of the bloodlines.

Things went a bit crazy after you went to bed. An especially nasty troll arrived, a threatening one at that.

I did a major clean-up on aisle 5. It turned everything upside down for a while.

Happy Saturday!!! Wishing everyone the most awesome weekend :)

I was thinking about that yesterday. Lol I am no scientist, but i thought that maybe its not the plants and stars, galaxies moving...its the space between/around everything thats growing, moving carrying along all bodies with it like sand in water. on a wave.

Youre welcome. But still i warn you :) Im just a fool as you all are. The only thing i know for sure is that i know knothing. So i am just sharing some beliefs, nothing more nothing less. Dont think theyre worth that much :)

LOL Ok, get that. Am just observing and taking in what is said by all here and use discernment. ;) The older I get the less I 'know' it seems. LOL

No, they just got smarter, all harvests swooped on by a murder of crows. Chickens I said it earlier fox food just a death by a thousand cuts.. Butterflies eating your cabbage.
That is all normal stuff here. We just know what to do. It's easy for me. I know how to sent the crows away. etc.

People miss the plot though, when you befriend the wildlife you get to know them. Did you ever here the saying.

"Don't waste it, you might have to follow a crow for that?"

That is a very true statement.

It's not something that can be taught in a season as seasons change it is a lifetimes observation.

Let me give you a for instance.

"people love bunches of roses". That is a sentence you will never forget, your black AMEX card won't buy you this one.

potatoes, legumes, brassicas, onions, roots.
people, love, bunches, of, roses. swap bed 1 into bed 2 etc.

That is the way you place your beds so you don't get eeehmmm STD's in your veg.

Niahm,
Boy I know this is way off current topic in this thread,
But could you explain this little more thoroughly if you would? My dad told me this once when I was young but he is dead and gone.
I am abadoning my raised beds and totally overhauling the gardens in the fall. This info would be so helpful.

citronella....I have it in pots along my porch railings. Does a fine job of keeping the little bloodsuckers at bay.

Hi All, I'm back for a half an hour or so.

People love bunches of roses is the sentence you have to remember.

Year 1
People = potatoes VEG BED 1
Love = Legumes VEG BED 2
Bunches = Brassicas VEG BED 3
Of = Onions VEG BED 4
Roses = Roots VEG BED 5


So Year 2

You put your Roots in what was your potatoe bed.
Potatoes into the legume bed
Legumes into the brassica bed
Brassicas into the onion bed
and onions into the root bed.

It's a type of rotation that keeps the soil healthy and therefore plants happy and disease free.

I hope this makes better sense :D

Wow...
That's an old way of agriculture.
Soil rotation... it was used together with agricultural lunar calendars.
Few people are still using it - but is a very beneficial way for both soil and people.

Thank you for sharing it and explaining it in such an easy way :-)

I do this! Also, leave a space for fallow ground. Then you'll have a cleaner garden the next year!

Hi Merit (I have some thoughts on identity, but your identity is not the key, it is each of OUR identities. Not to mention, you would diminish your effectiveness with an identity other than the one you have chosen wisely),

The first thing to say, is WOW. The second, is "thank you". The third thing... not so easy to decipher. Where to begin? What is the most important thing to respond to? What is the most important thing I can add, act upon or ask to bring to the light?

I guess I will choose the third item as transparency that while my aim was to read every single comment you made, it took me almost a week to get to somewhere around page 180. I am a busy man, and I DID try to make this a priority, but life/ work happens and I have a TON of responsibility. So just now, I decided to skip to the end and start playing rather than just watching even if it was just one round then an extended break.

The fourth thing, is that I think you will agree, that whatever "purpose" for this thread, it doesn't matter who you are, who I am or how many participate. The potential for what it could lead to is greater than, AND equal to, all of us I believe. I'm not trying to beat around the bush, or make anyone be forced to read between the lines, I am being careful to use as few words as possible.

I believe I see some error in some of your statements, but they are VERY few, are only really in one single category out of the scores that you touch upon, and I know that you would be able to see error in mine too, were I to share them whether it was confirmation bias or any number of reasons. But I will not in the first post.

The last thing I will say, is that I believe that I THINK (I am agnostic for the most part if you want to put me in a category) that I see your vision and why you are doing this. But I could be completely wrong. I humbly acknowledge that. I am not coming from any esoteric, secret society perspective. This is sound logical reasoning and empirical evidence (that could be enhanced via other avenues, but we have to start at the first of the 4 levels and not stray from its foundation while adding the other levels).

To my last "thing" I will add; please be confident that I am not a basement-dwelling keyboard warrior. I am the Chief Information and Communication Technologies Officer at a global company that probably everyone on this thread knows the name of. I hope that doesn't give away MY identity, but if it does then sobeit. And I hope that is not seen as arrogance or pride- it is not, it's just a fact. It is only for you to know (because how else COULD you before my post) that I am not 17 years old living in my parent's basement as so many have been forced to (by their choice, but you know what I mean). I am 40 with a wife and 2 kids making a very nice salary.

I have a well-documented plan to accomplish what I think you are in desire of but I'm not certain what your desire is. So, your move brother. If you are not interested, it wasn't meant to be at this time. I am sorry for the long post. It was as short as I could make it.

Hello

I certainly appreciate your candor and effective communication skills. You write well. Like me when I am "on". So it reads quickly and easily.

You wish to employ my reasoning skills and talents to your plan? I am certainly open. Like you said this is not about me. I am efficient to a fault. If I find a method superior to mine i typically immediately recognize that fact and abandon mine for the better.

A talent that has served me well mind you.
That lack of sentiment towards something that is mine or long used by myself has given me the ability to move into new and better things quickly and with focus.

My goal is to get everyone on the same page more so than have the most elegant or diabolical plan mind you so if I have critiques they will likely be in that vein. That I think your plan lacks an all inclusiveness to it or that I see things that will alienate certain large groups of people.

This sounds interesting.

Lay it on me brother.

When I get back, have a rather bizarre experience from the pub last night. If I have time, I will write it up.

Nutshell: Strange guy, very dark energy, said some bizarre things. Was very out of place for this neighborhood pub.
