Nursing life is an amazing thing. The #incubation process is going swell. Out of the 30 or so eggs, there were 22 that were fertile. You can see this little guy wiggling around in the egg. 😊 Fingers crossed they all make it. #chicks #grownostr #homesteading image

I keep forgetting to add updates. Today I planted some peas in the raised beds. I also soaked half of them in water to see how they germinate differently. The propagation box is almost full now. I added some magnolia, fig, creeping thyme, willow and a few others. Most of the seeds I started have now sprouted and are looking 💪🏼. I’ll probably plant out some broccoli and other brassicas soon now that I’ve rebuilt the raised bed cover. I was also given a whole bunch of stuff for growing mushrooms 🍄‍🟫. You know me, time to learn a new #skill. #Mycology has started to peak my interest as I’ve learned about soil food web. For now I have some “fun” spores. Soon I plan on growing some other types. Have a good night nostrland. image

Okay my friends here’s another MacGyvered piece for the greenhouse gutters. I ended up using a 5gal water jug as a water manifold for both gutters to feed into. The open spout then pours into the ibc tote. It’s kinda cool to watch it work. I love watching water flow. #wackyideas View quoted note →

If you haven’t started yet, it’s time to get those orders in ASAP. Give those roots some time to acclimate to their new environment for explosive spring growth. Discount code: jacobw090910 View quoted note →

I was able to get the #aquaponics #propagation system set up. Huge thanks to @IdahoPuma for hooking me up and offering some knowledge on how these systems work. Yet another skill to learn and add to the arsenal. I’m planning on cloning a ton of trees in the future and needed a more reliable set it and forget it system for my busy spring. Currently running trials on mulberry, Asian pear, rosemary and pothos. #organixfarms #homestead image

Having local connections is the best. We were able to exchange some eastern red cedar logs with a #local #sawmill. They were able to saw true dimension 6x6 posts, 2x8, 2x6, and 2x4s for our lean-to #project we’ll be starting soon. All he wanted in exchange was log for log. That right there is what #community and social capital is all about!! #homestead
