I don't feel as bad hijacking @24's thread here as I would on Twitter because at least here he gets paid when we yak about plants while he tries to change the world.

Yes please go on I'm fascinated! :)
Haha, I could talk about plants forever! I think a plant/gardening-focused twetch (e.g. subcategories: indoor plants, permaculture, homesteading, food preservation) could be quite useful and awesome. 🌱🌷🌻
On-chain Permies, the true Farmer's Almanac!
Reporting in from Zone 4B, your tomato seedlings look very healthy :) We didn't have great luck hardening ours off this year. Trying to shift to more edible perennials.
8b here - usually tomatoes get planted out May long weekend to beginning of June. This weekend's forecast is rain so will wait a bit longer. I'm pondering non-hideous ways to protect them from the rain (unfortunately, no space for a greenhouse).
4B checking in. And referencing Permies. You may be in MT? Permaculture Almanac on chain is great.
Permaculture is such a great concept vs monoculture, but must recognize that it is also less efficient. For better or worse... that depends on the lens through which one looks.
True! I don't see the world being fed without efficiency in production. A few radishes in your home garden or a quaint permaculture farm is very different from mass production like this: https://youtu.be/UyhHOpWdmkA
Permaculture can bear tremendous yields!
You're just not going to be eating staple annual crops and supply chains would be significantly shorter by necessity.
Bonsai has taught me a lot. It gives me a sense of permanence that few hobbies are able to do. Even if I never have children I plan to pass my trees down to those willing to learn the art. Legacy is not blood; rather the sum of our actions.
