Peanuts, potatoes, sugar cane, bananas, coconuts. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1373241Peanuts, yes. Potatoes have too much trouble growing. The rest does not grow here in S. California, but I hope someone else can benefit. Emerald_Glow |

Thank-you, emerald glow, for another great thread. 5 *'s for you. Have you ever searched through the "recession proof GLP" threads. If you go to topics it is listed under "economy". [link to www.godlikeproductions.com] There is a lot of good information there. I think there's one by ET called "eat the weeds" that is one of my favorites but all the threads there were helpful. If you put Recession Proof GLP in front of your thread title I think it automatically gets sorted to that topic. Inside one of those threads there is a link to a website that lists what ornamental plants/flowers/trees are edible. There are thousands listed. People may have edible food in their landscaping and not even know it. |

Great, where i live, there's nothing but snow when TSHTF. Guess i'll eat snow. Maybe few stray cats.

That's why i bought 50 lb bags of oats and beans, so i never have to eat grass! Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1372991The best, most well known grass to eat is wheat grass. It only takes ten days to grow the grass, then you cut it. then it grows again and keeps doing it for a while. After you used it for a while let it grow into wheat and BOOM flour and wheat berries for more wheat grass. Wheatgrass can be blended and made into a delicious drink if you add some fruit, its real healthy too, you can look up a video on youtube about it. It's real healthy, not like other grass. |

Wild mustard leaves are good for salads and the seeds can be crushed and made into a paste for topical pain relief.

I do it now, plus edit the title to make it part of the collection. Emerald_Glow |

On another note, look at the bright side, Balthu: 1.If it is all snow there, chances are you don't have to fight to defend your territory. 2. Any kind of food that you can buy today will last forever in that cold, with no refrigerator needed. Last Edited by emerald_glow on 05/08/2011 03:54 PM Emerald_Glow |

Sprouts of many vegetables grow in a jar in your kitchen in under a week and are very nutritious, containing many times the vitamins and protein of mature plants of the same seed. Quoting: Relative devianceYes that is true...wheat germ, alfalfa, cloves, they are all good, just have to make sure the seeds are not treated with chemicals, against germinating. Emerald_Glow |

Hehe, well i seriously doubt they'll last one night with this neighbourhood, unless it snows like 2 meters. And it'll still be autumn when tshtf. Love is not the game, life is. - When we wake up in this "reality" every morning, we are actually falling asleep, because only in our dreams we are truly awake. - We are not our body, nor our mind. We are not the voice in our body, nor our head. We are the the here and now, experiencing without any input from either of the mentioned above. - It's not about others forgiving you, but whether you can forgive yourself. - It doesn't take much energy to make the wrong decision. But to make the right one, you have to put every fiber of your being to it. - I know i have a lot to work on. But knowing that there's no hairy ass man in the clouds to judge me when I have little bit of fun on the expense of someone elses ignorance, makes life a whole lot easier. |
