Summary: Long ago, we are talking 2008 here I started this podcast. I wanted to talk about all things modern survival related. To me nothing is more rooted in our survival than the ability to feed ourselves so I started talking about gardening. Still with tons of guns and gear types showing up in the early days I wondered if garden type shows would be well received. Not only were they but they became some of the most popular episodes I have ever done. Within that group shows dedicated to a group of plants you can or should grow, especially lesser known varieties were the most popular of all. Today we are going to follow that old school TSP Formula and talk about 12 plants you may want to consider growing. Not all of these will be plants you never heard of, some won’t even be considered unusual but all have unique things about them that are either worthy of your consideration or perhaps reconsideration. Join Me Today to Discuss… My most basic rules of gardening, if something meets 2 consider it if meets 3-4, grow it Grow what you like Grow what is expensive Grow what you can’t buy Grow what grows well for you with little effort 20 plants that I think everyone should consider Crosnes Ground Nut – apios americana Swiss Chard Vegetable Amaranth Green Onion Japanese Eggplant Gourds Burgundy Okra Water Cress Cutting Celery Orach New Zealand Spinach Nasutrium Radishes Sea Kale Long Beans Sorrel Tromboncino “neck pumpkin” Shiso/Perilla Bitter Melon Final Thoughts – Have fun, grow stuff and remember my three big rules Resources for today’s show… Join the Members Brigade Join Our Forum Walking To Freedom TspAz.com RX (Medicate) – Theory of a Deadman Sponsors of the Day Western Botanicals Free State Project Remember to comment, chime in and tell us your thoughts, this podcast is one man’s opinion, not a lecture or sermon.
