So this is space 4, its in my yard i used a old temporary garage frame so that i could get extra room and do hanging plants from its cross bars and horse mineral tubs/ nursery tree pots down the middle and row of pea on the outer edges. In the horse mineral tubs i have 4 tumbler tomatoes in every other one, and then peppers and herbs in every other one then two rows of pots with one pepper in each all the way around the horse tubs. and in the hanging pots i have tomatos and herbs and peas. in the ground i have homesteader peas and in the pots i have hairloom purple podded peas. this is basically my sasla supplies minus the peas. outta this space alone i should come up with enough to do 200 to 300 jars of salsa over the sumer and 100 or so of tomato paste. I can safely say if the apocalypse goes down i am safe i know how to grow enough food to survive.... right now its more about surviving the soaring foods prices thanks to our joke of a fuckin prime minister that shoulda stayed teaching drama instead of trying to run out country cause the only place hes running our country is into the damn ground even worse then his father did years ago. giving out all the cerb money with almost no screening process severly fucked our economy cause half of the idiots claiming it didnt deserve nor earn it. our economy is in the shitter to the fullest extent and its only gonna get worse.

food prices are horrific!!!! who can afford $14 for a kilo of broccoli!!!
Great use of space with all the pots up on the frame. using vertical space is just so darn helpful.
All the best with the tomatos. I'm hoping we don't get too much fruit fly this year and we can have a good crop of tomato
thats brutal,,,, brocolli is only 3$ a pound here or 6 ish a kg, which is still expensive for here lol
i know normally it is like $1 - 4?? its just nuts...
we had $12 a lettuce here too for a week or so... back down now though. All the floods playing havoc..
where you from that its getting flooded?
We are in Australia, south east queensland and it has rained ALL the dry season (winter) we are subtropical so summer is our wet season. Not looking forward to that if this is winter. Basically all the crops are rotting in the fields. Its not everywhere. 2 months ago out town flooded though.
That is fucking intense... here we rarely get floods in central canada. Th3 coasts get it bad tho.. however we hit minus 50 celcius in winter frequently which is its own kinda hell
right so me whining about 0 degrees Celcius in the middle of winter killing my heat loving tomatos isn't really going to cut it right... lol.. :-) :-)
yeah we don't do cold in Queensland (unless up a mountain)
My dad went to Canada for work in December went from - 50C in Canada back into a +40 Celcius day here in Brisbane. poor thing... he looked dreadful.
