Recession Proof GLP...Veggie gardens

I was having a problem with worms and sprayed on soapy water as recommended by my neighbor. Think that will work, or is there another natural remedy?

Hi, Can anyone suggest a drying technique for veggies/fruits...sort of a racking system which requires no electricity? Anyone had any success with drying a medium/large harvest using a homemade design? Thank you.

Here are a couple of ideas...but I haven't tried them myself so I can't make any claims.

This is a pdf with instructions on how to construct a simple solar food dryer:

Another dryer...more complicated but made of cardboard:

This one is very similar to the cardboard one above, but sturdier:

This is the cardboard dehydrator, but with more in-depth instructions on how to handle the food before and after drying:

Solar Food Dehydrator

I have an ancient electric food dehydrator that I'm using at the present, but Hubby and I have discussed the need for a solar unit. I think having one is a very wise investment.

And I lost this year's grape crop. In April or so we had three days of really high winds, 50MPH gusts. I didn't go out. BIG MISTAKE! The winds dried the grape plants, then we were hit with a night freeze.

My beautiful newly-leafed grapes went bye-bye. Lesson learned: KEEP GRAPES WATERED IN HIGH WINDS.

They've recovered, but all the last-year's new branches or whatever you call them just flat DIED from the wind and freeze, so no grapes this summer.

AH, BUT WAIT 'TIL NEXT YEAR!

I'm indoors with out any access to outdoor space but I do have a garden of sorts. I've two bags of spuds growing on my kitchen floor. There are containers of herbs, and seedling onions, current tomatoes, bell peppers, lettuce, and spinach. All of this is growing in containers.

The focus on spuds is that they are my main carbohydrate. I am allergic to wheat. Corn can't be managed in an apartment.
