Dappled shade is great for greens, peas, radish, turnip, and cole crops during hot weather,

You can plant "forest garden" type stuff:

Great & healthy, but it seems really crowded. Tomato plants should be about 2 feet apart when in a single row. That helps to prevent blight problems from lack of air flow after a rain. It also helps you find and remove hornworms. If those are indeterminate cultivar tomatoes then that bed will turn into pure crazy later in the year. lol You can alleviate some of that by either moving a few or leaning them way out to grow up away from the others (kind of messy to do in reality.)

Also, with that many tomato plants in one place, there might be some calcium deficiency problems later in the year if your location gets lots of rain. Doubly so if you are using last year's soil and didn't add some crushed oyster shell or calcium hydroxide (hydrated lime) at the end of the season.

I hope it goes well!

Scary. I nearly cooked my sugar beets in their polytunnel on one sunny day. Air temps reached 120F inside when it was only like 68F outside, but with full sun. Mulch on the soil REALLY insulates more than I expected. The tunnels with bare soil just sucked up all the heat into the soil and stayed at a nice 80-85F range.

As with most fads, it will peak, but not fully return to previous levels. I think it is more correctly, "food securitists."

If the dirt is good, keep it. If you built it up or bought it, never let it go. Raised beds are one of the best ways to maintain your good soil levels, without it getting washed away over the seasons.

>>1742038
That's going to be really nice later in the season.

I have, when I have extra hay/straw and potato eyes.

Seed for herbs/spices tend to take LONG time to germinate. Wait longer, up to a month.

Any of the small cherry, plum, or pear shapes. The larger ones with normal shapes usually have a few more problems due to the fruit shape. The plants are pretty much the same across the spectrum.

You can plant potatoes from the store. Just keep them around in the warmth, out of light, and let them sprout their, "eyes." The eyes should be about 1/8" long. You can then decide if you want to divide the potato up evenly between all the eyes or just take a tiny section of the potato from the eye. If you take a tiny section, you can then eat the rest of the potato yourself. With either method, you will need to allow the cut ends to dry before you plant them. That usually takes 2-4 days. If the potato eyes are 1/4" or longer, you shouldn't eat them as the solanine toxin content increases steeply. You can plant them at just about any length.

You can do much the same thing for sweet potatoes, except you pluck off the "slip" when it grows up and has roots.

As for other stuff, it is best to purchase seeds from a proper seed seller. The general list is much the same as what was posted in >>1705296 but you can add things like tomatoes, peppers, carrots, beets, various greens/potherbs/lettuce, and general herbs. Just think about what you eat and what those ingredients are, go from there to make your list.

From the grocery store you can normally plant things like dried beans, dried peas, dried goji berry seeds, fruit tree seeds, garlic cloves, melons, and a host of other things from seed or cutting. You can even take a whole carrot and plant it as is. It's root will go woody and will grow, bloom, & give you a ton of seeds you can plant and grow through the fall/winter/spring,

There are also bulk kits of seeds you can buy,

The soil probably became hydrophobic due to extreme dryness. IT can also shrink and pull away from the side of the pot. Just sink them in a tray of water and let them soak it up. It should be fine after that and continue with normal watering cycles. If the soil does not rebound and lock tight with the sides of the pot, add some more to the exposed crack around the container's edge to fill the gap. That will prevent water from dumping right out the bottom as soon as you put it in.

As some plants get root bound, they can also shrink the soil away from the container's sides. In that case, you should repot the plant.

Legumes. Peanuts are low carb, high fat, and high protein. It is really easy to grow. Just cage it off to prevent squirrels and other rodents from getting them. Edamame(immature green s oybeans) are also pretty good for that. They are like green peas. Lentils are pretty high in protein, but also have a good amount of carbs. The rest of the legumes have less protein and more carbs from there on.

You can raise more small livestock. Rabbits (New Zealand White), broiler chickens (Cornish X Rock for meat and speedy growth; Black Australorp for tons of eggs and meat), duck (American Pekin for meat & eggs; Khaki Campbell for most eggs), giant guinea pigs (Cavia Porcellus breed,"Cuy Criollo"), are all really good animals for small footprint farming. The quickest ones to butcher will be the Cornish X Rock (aka "Cornish Cross") breed of broiler chicken. You can butcher those as 6-8 weeks of age. I recommend doing that at 6 weeks.

You can adjust your shutter speed/exposure on the camera to compensate. Like try pics at 60exp & 120exp(USA) and 50exp & 100exp (Europe) or as close to those as you can get. It is based on multiples of your electric grid's frequency. Adjust that for drivered LEDs.

Also, use that manure for gardening.
