Highest Calorie Crops For Survival Gardening.
Growing up, my family had a vegetable garden every year. We didn’t grow one because we had to but because we enjoyed the work and the availability of fresh produce at our fingertips. These days it seems almost trendy to say you grow your own food but the time to have a food garden out of necessity certainly seems to be on the horizon.
Food prices keep increasing, shortages have become normal, and changing weather patterns all affect what types of foods are available to us. The system on which we rely for our food is really an experiment. When you take into account the whole of human existence this system hasn’t been around for all that long so it’s no wonder it has problems.
Whether that system just keeps getting worse, it collapses, or SHTF happens, the answer is that we need to get back to our roots and grow our own food. In the case of SHTF, you are going to want the most calorie-dense vegetables and fruits you can grow and you are going to want to grow them as quickly as you can.
High-Calorie Vegetables For Survival
The vegetables below are listed in no particular order.
Amaranth
AMARANTH
Amaranth is a group of plants used for their leaves and grains. On average they provide roughly 250 calories per cup when cooked.. After planting, amaranth can be ready for harvest within about three months. Amaranth likes sunny conditions and temperatures around 70 degrees Fahrenheit.
Soybeans
SOYBEANS ON THE VINE
Soybeans are native to the region of East Asia and while they have many different uses, one of the most common uses for them is in making soy milk and tofu. Soybeans provide around 297 calories per cup and can require about 20 weeks of growing before the plant is mature. Soybeans like sunlight, soil that drains well, and temperatures around 80 degrees Fahrenheit.
Pinto Beans
PINTO BEANS
Pinto beans are a popular legume in the southern United States and northern Mexico. One cup of pinto beans can provide around 245 calories. When planting, be sure to pick a spot that receives full sunlight all day long. Depending on the variety, it can take up to 100 days before you can harvest.
Lima Beans
LIMA BEAN PLANTS
Lima beans also referred to as butter beans due to their creamy taste and texture, can provide around 209 calories per cup. When growing, choose a location that is warm, not hot, and where it will receive at least a few inches of water per month. These beans should be ready for harvest 60-70 days after planting.
Jerusalem artichokes
JERUSALEM ARTICHOKES
Jerusalem artichokes are also referred to as wild sunflower, Sunroot, or earth apple and it is a native plant of central North America. In one cup you can expect to get a little over 110 calories from this versatile tuber. This plant is relatively easy to grow, likes slightly cooler temperatures, and is ready for harvest in about 20 weeks.
Peanuts
PEANUTS IN THE GARDEN
Interestingly, peanuts are considered a grain legume and an oil crop because of the high levels of peanut oil they contain. A handful of peanuts will also give you a boost of energy because one cup of peanuts contains around 830 calories and you can expect one plant to produce up to 50 nuts.
When planting, choose a hot location that receives plenty of rainfall, and has loose soil. You can expect to harvest between 120-160 days.
Quinoa
QUIONOA IN THE GARDEN
Quinoa is a part of the amaranth family and its seeds have higher nutritional values than other grains, including protein, fiber, B vitamins, and other minerals. One cup of quinoa will also provide you with about 222 calories. When planting, choose a location that is warm with sandy soil that drains well and you can expect to harvest the seeds in 90-120 days.
Winter Squash
VARIOUS WINTER SQUASH
Squashes can be eaten raw but most people find them to be tastier when they are baked or roasted. The average squash will provide around 40-80 calories per cup and some varieties include butternut squash, carnival squash, banana squash, pumpkin, buttercup squash, and acorn squash.
Squash thrives in soil that drains well and when it receives 8 hours of sunlight a day Depending on the variety, you can expect to harvest squash between 80-100 days after planting.
Potato
POTATOES
Potatoes making it on the list is probably no surprise since they have been considered a starvation food throughout history and if they are good enough for Mark Watney in the movie The Martian, they should be good enough for you.
At 110 calories per 5.3 ounces (.66 cups) the average potato is going to provide you with around 160 calories. Potatoes like at least 6 hours of daylight and slightly acidic fertile soil. Soil should be loose to allow the tubers to properly grow. Each potato plant can produce around ten tubers and it can take anywhere from 10 to 20 weeks before they can be harvested.
Sweet potato
SWEET POTATOES
What can be said about a regular potato can pretty much be said about sweet potatoes. At 100 calories per 4.6 ounces (.57 cups) the average sweet potato will provide you with just a little over 100 calories.
Sweet potatoes prefer sunny locations and loose, sandy soil. If your soil is too hard or compacted, consider growing potatoes in buckets or raised beds. A sweet potato plant will produce fewer tubers than a regular potato plant and they can take up to 17 weeks before they are ready to be harvested.
Sweet Corn
SWEET CORN ON THE STALK
Ah, everyone’s favorite summer picnic food and a highly used product around the world. Sweet corn was developed specifically for humans due to its higher levels of sugar.
At 90 calories per 3.2 ounces (.4 cups) the average ear of sweet corn will yield up to 90 calories and it will take up to 100 days before it's ready to be harvested. Be sure to choose a location that receives full sunlight and gives the corn plenty of room to grow.
Lentils
LENTILS ON A BOWL
Like beans, lentils are a part of the legume family and they are used around the world either in their dry form or canned version. Lentils provide 230 calories per cup and can be prepared in a variety of ways, making them a popular and calorie-dense crop to grow.
Lentils require around 15 weeks of growing time before they can be harvested. Lentils grow best in cool, dry locations where they also receive full sunlight.
Avocado
AVOCADOS ON THE TREE
The avocado made a huge comeback in recent years as a healthy food to be eaten, primarily due to its levels of healthy fats. At 234 calories per cup, this is the number of calories you can expect out of one avocado. As great as avocados may be, there are two huge downfalls to growing them.
The first is that avocados grow on trees, meaning you will need a decent amount of space for it to grow. Secondly, if you are starting from seed, it will be many years before you see your first avocado. To speed this process up, consider planting a tree rather than starting from seed.
Chickpeas
CHICKPEAS
Another option on this list is from the legume family and with good reason. At 729 calories per cup (raw), chickpeas provide a ton of calories per serving. Like most legumes, they are quite versatile to cook with and can be harvested around 15 weeks after planting.
Chickpeas are a good option for container gardening because they only grow to about 18 inches tall but make sure the container is placed in full sunlight.
Garlic
GARLIC IN THE GARDEN
Garlic is a part of the onion family even though most of us don’t really think of it as a vegetable but more as an additive for flavoring. 200 calories per cup sounds decent but the average size clove of garlic only has around 4 calories.
Also, even though garlic is relatively easy to grow it can take up to 9 months before it's ready for harvest. Garlic plants like full sunlight, and loose soil that has a slightly higher pH.
High-Calorie Fruits For Survival
The fruits below are listed in no particular order.
Watermelon
WATER MELON ON THE VINE
Watermelon is another summertime favorite food to eat and it will provide roughly 46 calories per cup (diced). When planting, choose soil that drains well and is somewhat loose. You will also need quite a bit of space as each plant needs around 20 square feet for growing. You can expect to harvest a watermelon in about 90 days.
Cantaloupe
CANTALOUPE IN THE GARDEN
One cup of diced cantaloupe will provide around 50 calories with a whole large melon providing around 270. Cantaloupes grow best in rich soil, warm temperatures, and sunlight. Consider growing melons on a trellis to help keep the melons off the ground and you can expect to harvest a cantaloupe after about 80 days.
Honeydew
HONEYDEW MELON IN THE GARDEN
The honeydew melon will provide you with about 60 calories per cup (diced) and one large whole melon will contain around 450 calories. Honeydews do best in hot and dry climates. If you live in a colder region, start them indoors and do not transplant them outside until after the first frost. You can expect to harvest your first honeydew in between 50-100 days depending on the growing conditions.
Winter Melon
WINTER MELON ON THE VINE
The winter melon is technically a vegetable that is related to the cucumber, and it can produce rather large fruit, resembling a large watermelon Weighing up to forty pounds, one winter melon can provide almost 800 calories and they grow well in rich soil, well-drained soil, giving the melon plenty of space to grow. It also likes to be in locations that receive full sunlight throughout the day.
Pineapple
PINEAPPLE PLANT
The pineapple is a tropical plant found in South America and one whole fruit can provide around 450 calories. Since it does well in tropical locations, it’s no surprise that the pineapple plant does well in warm climates where it receives plenty of sunlight. The downside to growing pineapple is that it can take up to two years before you can harvest any fruit.
Banana
BANANAS ON THE TREE
Bananas are another fruit packed with nutrients that have become a part of our daily diets and they provide about 110 calories per 4.5 ounces (.56 cups) A single banana contains around 105 calories.
A banana tree can produce fruit in a relatively short time frame, around one year. Banana trees do best in warm humid conditions and do not like extreme temperatures in either direction.
Grapes
GRAPES ON THE VINE
Grapes are another popular fruit used in snacks and other dishes that provide around 90 calories per 4.5 ounces (.56 cups). You will need a bit of area for raising grapes as they grow on vines that need room to spread out. Depending on the variety, grapevines can take several years before they start producing fruit.
Keep Your Garden Soil Healthy
If the soil in your garden isn’t in good condition then your plants aren’t going to do well. Here's how to keep your soil in good health.
Get To Growing
Joy can be found in the process of growing not to mention the benefits reaped upon harvest. If you have never grown food before it can seem like a daunting prospect. I suggest starting off small, perhaps trying to grow some microgreens on your window sill or kitchen counter.
For some people, growing food may seem impossible given their circumstances. I promise you that it is not, where there is a will there's a way. If you don’t have a green thumb, make it green by getting your hands in the dirt. It’s better to learn how to do this stuff now when you aren’t depending on it.

In February 1969, rock music was at a turning point. This video looks back at a single month that produced a remarkable run of albums, ranging from explosive live rock and proto-punk to psychedelia, country rock, progressive sounds, and ambitious pop.
Featuring records by MC5, The Beach Boys, The Bee Gees, Ten Years After, The Flying Burrito Brothers, Caravan, Silver Apples, Gandalf, and more, this is a snapshot of a moment when the counterculture was fragmenting and new genres were beginning to take shape.
Some of these albums were commercial successes while others were ignored or misunderstood at the time but all of them would go on to leave a lasting mark on the music that followed.

Sophocles
"All concerns of men go wrong when they wish to cure evil with evil."
"Sophocles , (born c. 496, Colonus, near Athens—died 406 BC, Athens), Greek playwright. With Aeschylus and Euripides, he was one of the three great tragic playwrights of Classical Athens. A distinguished public figure in Athens, he served successively in important posts as a treasurer, commander, and adviser.
He competed in dramatic festivals, where he defeated Aeschylus to win his first victory in 468 BC. He went on to achieve unparalleled success, writing 123 dramas for dramatic competitions and achieving more than 20 victories.
Only seven tragedies survive in their entirety: Antigone, Ajax, Electra, The Trachinian Women, Philoctetes, Oedipus at Colonus, and Oedipus the King, his best-known work. He increased the size of the chorus and was the first to introduce a third actor onstage.
For their supple language, vivid characterization, and formal perfection, his works are regarded as the epitome of Greek drama." (Britannica)

Explore the colossal financial disasters where tech giants lost billions by ignoring user needs and releasing products with dangerous designs or terrible timing 📉
We break down why the privacy nightmare of Google Glass and the explosive Samsung Galaxy Note 7 cost billions while Microsoft Zune and the Concorde jet failed because of high operating costs and missing the crucial market timing.
Even giants stumble as Sony Betamax lost the format war and Amazon Fire Phone vanished quickly alongside the crash of Nokia and the overpriced Apple Newton that was simply too ambitious for its era.
Which one of these expensive failures do you remember using?
Eight of the most expensive technology failures in history, providing a brief description and the reason for each product's commercial flop:
• Google Glass: Google spent billions developing smart glasses, but the project failed due to privacy concerns and poor public adoption.
• Microsoft Zune: Microsoft invested heavily to compete with the Apple iPod, but weak marketing and poor timing led to the product's quick disappearance from the market.
• Samsung Galaxy Note 7: A battery defect caused phones to explode, resulting in a global recall that cost Samsung over $5 billion.
• Concorde Airplane: An engineering marvel, the supersonic jet failed commercially because huge operating costs made airlines lose money for decades.
• Betamax: Sony's Betamax lost the format war to VHS despite having better quality, costing the company billions in lost market share.
• Amazon Fire Phone: Amazon's attempt to enter the smartphone market failed badly, leading to a write-off of around $170 million.
• Nokia Windows Phones: Nokia bet its future on Microsoft's software and lost, resulting in billions in losses and the eventual fall of the brand.
• Apple Newton: Apple's early tablet was too expensive and released too early for its time, becoming a costly commercial failure.

Concrete LC2, designed by Stefan Zwicky in 1980, reinterprets the iconic LC2 armchair by Le Corbusier, Pierre Jeanneret, and Charlotte Perriand. Zwicky's version, titled "Grand confort, sans confort, Dommage à Corbu," replaces traditional materials with concrete and steel, creating a stark contrast to the original's minimalist elegance.
The chair, part of an edition of 35, bears a metal label inscribed: "Great comfort, without comfort, homage to Corbu, Stefan Zwicky, 1980, artist's proof." First produced for the "Vor dem Abbruch" exhibition at the Kunstmuseum in Bern, the chair measures 76 cm (30 in.) in height, 70 cm (27 1/2 in.) in width, and 66 cm (26 in.) in depth.

A chocolate cake is a cultural fingerprint, a dense slice of history that tells you exactly where you are in the world. Long before modern mixes, these recipes relied on local staples and specialized techniques to achieve the perfect melt and richness.
In Sweden, the Kladdkaka defies standard physics; it is intentionally underbaked to create a gooey center that contrasts with a thin, crisp exterior. This stands in stark contrast to Italy’s Torta Caprese, a flourless masterpiece from Capri that uses ground almonds and dark chocolate to create a structure that remains moist for days.
While Austria’s Sacher Torte represents 19th-century discipline with its precise layers of apricot jam and snapped chocolate glaze, Argentina’s Chocotorta reimagines the cake entirely. It is a no-bake icon built from chocolate biscuits soaked in coffee and layered with dulce de leche. From the volcanic, oozing center of a Molten Chocolate Cake to the sprinkle-covered Bolo de Brigadeiro from Brazil, the experience remains universal: a deep, earthy aroma and a shared joy in a centuries-old tradition.

On this day in 1979, the Rod Stewart single “Da Ya Think I’m Sexy?” went to #1 on the US Billboard Hot 100 (February 10)
This was a pretty controversial song, for a number of reasons.
Even Rod himself confessed:
"If I ever wrote a song which put a fly in the ointment or a spanner in the works - it's this one!”
Firstly, the disco-style song grated on some critics, and many of Rockin’ Rod’s fan base from his Faces and Jeff Beck Group days.
But in a 2007 interview, co-writer Duane Hitchings noted that "Da Ya Think I'm Sexy?" was actually "a spoof on guys from the 'cocaine lounge lizards' of the Saturday Night Fever days.
We Rock and Roll guys thought we were dead meat when that movie and the Bee Gees came out.
The Bee Gees were brilliant musicians and really nice people. No big egos.
Rod, in his brilliance, decided to do a spoof on disco. VERY smart man.
There is no such thing as a 'dumb' super success in the music business."
The song from the “Blondes Have More Fun” LP was written by Stewart, Carmine Appice and Hitchings, although Stewart admitted in his 2012 autobiography to "unconscious plagiarism" of the Jorge Ben Jor song "Taj Mahal", which he had heard while attending the Rio Carnival in 1978.
He also admitted that he had consciously lifted the song's signature synthesizer riff from the string arrangement on Bobby Womack's "(If You Want My Love) Put Something Down On It".
When Jorge Ben Jor filed a copyright infringement lawsuit, Stewart agreed to give proceeds from the song to UNICEF.
Furthermore, guitarist Jim Cregan claimed that the song was "inspired in part" by The Rolling Stones' "Miss You".
Ian McLagan, who played electric piano on "Miss You" and has also played with Stewart, claimed that "It's a rip-off of 'Miss You'".
Drummer Carmine Appice told Songfacts: "We were in the studio and 'Miss You' by The Rolling Stones was a big hit.
Rod was always a guy that used to listen to what was going on around him. He was always looking at the charts and listening.
He was a big fan of The Rolling Stones, so when they came out with "Miss You," disco was really big at the time, so he wanted to do some kind of disco-y song, something like 'Miss You,' nothing like Gloria Gaynor.”
Stewart said:
“It was frightening, stirring up so much love and hate at the same time: most of the public loved it; all of the critics hated it.
I can understand both positions."
Appice noted:
“It came out and went to #1 everywhere."
“Da Ya Think I’m Sexy?” certainly was a worldwide smash hit, going all the way to #1 the US, the UK, Australia, Canada, Portugal and Spain, #2 in Argentina, France, New Zealand and Norway, #3 in Belgium, #5 in Ireland, #6 in the Netherlands, #8 in Austria and Switzerland, #9 in Germany and Finland, #11 in Sweden, and #12 in Japan.
Rolling Stone ranked the song #308 in its list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time.
Fun fact: the female lead in the video is the Norwegian model Lillian Muller, who was Playboy's Playmate of the Year in 1976. She later appeared as "Miss Chemistry" in Van Halen's "Hot For Teacher” video clip.

The surrealist paintings of Rafał Olbiński unfold like visual poetry — elegant, enigmatic, and rich with symbolism.
A master of metaphor, Olbiński blends classical draftsmanship with dreamlike imagery, where figures, architecture, and landscape dissolve into one another. His compositions often explore themes of desire, identity, illusion, and the subconscious, inviting viewers to pause and interpret rather than consume. 
Surrealism at its most lyrical.

⚠️ 7 ESSENTIAL PSYCHOTIC EPISODE SIGNS YOU SHOULD NOT IGNORE ⚠️
Imagine this.
You’re relaxed—TV on, ice cream in hand—when suddenly reality feels… off.
Like something familiar is slipping away.
That unsettling feeling may not be random.
It could be a psychotic episode sign.
Before panic sets in, take a breath.
This post isn’t here to scare you—it’s here to inform, clarify, and empower.
🧠 WHAT IS A PSYCHOTIC EPISODE?
A psychotic episode is like a storm in the mind.
Thoughts, perceptions, and emotions become distorted.
Reality and imagination blur.
You may experience:
Hallucinations (seeing or hearing things that aren’t there)
Delusions (strong beliefs not based in reality)
These experiences can be frightening—and can seriously affect daily life.
🧩 TYPES OF PSYCHOSIS
Psychosis can show up in different forms, including:
Schizophrenia – hallucinations, delusions, disorganized thinking
Substance-Induced Psychosis – triggered by drugs or withdrawal
Brief Psychotic Disorder – short-term psychosis after extreme stress
Hallucinations – false sensory experiences
Delusions – fixed false beliefs
Shared Psychotic Disorder (Folie à Deux) – delusions shared between close individuals
Schizoaffective Disorder – psychosis + mood disorders
Psychosis Due to Medical Conditions – brain injury, tumors, illness
🔍 CAUSES OF PSYCHOSIS
Psychosis may be linked to:
Schizophrenia & delusional disorders
Bipolar disorder & severe depression
Postpartum psychosis
Alzheimer’s, dementia, lupus, multiple sclerosis
Lyme disease
Head injuries
Extreme stress or trauma
Substance abuse (including prescription drugs)
🚨 7 MAJOR PSYCHOTIC EPISODE SIGNS
1️⃣ Distorted Perception
Seeing, hearing, or feeling things others don’t.
Reality no longer feels reliable.
2️⃣ Increasing Paranoia
Constant suspicion.
Feeling watched, targeted, or threatened—without evidence.
3️⃣ Delusions
Unshakable false beliefs.
You may feel extraordinarily powerful—or deeply persecuted.
4️⃣ Emotional Instability
Rapid mood swings.
Euphoria to despair without clear reason.
5️⃣ Disorganized Thinking
Thoughts feel scrambled.
Conversations become hard to follow—even for you.
6️⃣ Disrupted Sleep Patterns
Severe insomnia or excessive sleeping.
Sleep loss worsens mental instability.
7️⃣ Incoherent Speech
Sentences lose structure.
Speech becomes fragmented, unrelated, or confusing.
🧠 IMPORTANT TAKEAWAY
Experiencing one—or even several—of these signs does not automatically mean psychosis.
But if these symptoms feel intense, persistent, or overwhelming, professional help is essential.
Early support can make a powerful difference.
🛑 Mental health struggles are not weaknesses.
They are signals—and signals deserve attention.
If this post helps even one person recognize what’s happening, it has done its job.

This week in 1976, the Paul Simon single “50 Ways To Leave Your Lover” went to #1 on the US Billboard Hot 100 (February 7)
In a 1975 interview published in Rock Lives: Profiles and Interviews, Simon recalled:
“I woke up one morning in my apartment on Central Park and the opening words just popped into my mind: 'The problem is all inside your head, she said to me...' That was the first thing I thought of.
So I just started building on that line…”
The song with the instantly recognizable repeated drum riff performed by legendary drummer Steve Gadd made it all the way to #1 in the US and Canada, #2 in France, #18 in New Zealand, #23 in the UK, and #35 in Australia.
The track from the LP “Still Crazy After All These Years” became one of Paul Simon’s most popular singles, and ended up being his sole #1 hit as a solo artist on the US Billboard Hot 100 in the United States.
Backing vocals on the single were performed by Patti Austin, Valerie Simpson, and Phoebe Snow.

Need to get your sweetheart's attention this Valentine's Day? Take a tip from the white-spotted pufferfish... and draw them a picture 🐡✨🧑🎨
Males of this species are true underwater artists, sculpting intricate, geometric sand patterns to impress potential mates. First discovered in 1995, these seafloor designs baffled scientists until researchers witnessed a pufferfish artist in action in 2011.
Using only their fins, they carve symmetrical “love nests” up to two meters wide, carefully arranging ridges and grooves in mesmerizing detail. The better the design, the more likely a female is to choose the artist as her mate. It’s a masterpiece with a purpose—one that turns the seafloor into an underwater art gallery of love.
