6 Extra Ways To Help Your Garden Withstand Drought

There are plenty more things you can do in order to help you get through a drought:

1. Mulch

Mulch will not only retain moisture but will also protect the soil underneath from being baked by the sun. Mulch also suppresses weeds which of course would ‘steal’ some of the moisture from the plants you want to grow! You may wish to avoid using plastic sheet as this can heat up the ground.

2. Collect rainwater

Assuming of course that your region doesn’t have some crazy laws prohibiting this – a rainwater barrel system can collect a large amount of water and provide a very valuable source when things get dry.

3. Reuse greywater

We throw away gallons of usable water daily. Water from showering, hand washing and dish washing can be collected / diverted to the garden.

4. Drip irrigation

One of the benefits of a drip irrigation system is that it can deliver water precisely where it is needed and keep soil moist on an ongoing basis. If watering is done “all at once”, much of that water runs off and is wasted. The same volume of water, delivered gradually, will result in more of the water going to the plant and less going to waste.

5. Raised beds / retaining walls

A solid barrier in the ground will retain moisture and help keep it in the garden.

6. Time your planting

Getting your veg started earlier will increase yields and enable you to get some crops in before late summer drought conditions kick in. Depending on your climate, you may be able to grow late, into the fall and prior to winter.

This Crazy Off Grid Device Literally Makes Drinkable Water From Fresh Air:

According to NASA, the U.S. is expecting a 100-YEAR LONG MEGADROUGHT.

It's already begun. Ask the farmers in California. They know.

Every survivalist knows that water is of critical importance. You NEED an independent water source that you can count on!

As an interesting "survival rehearsal" - imagine that you turned the tap on right now and nothing came out. How long would you last?

But what if there was another water source literally hidden in plain sight. That's right, I'm talking about the atmosphere!

The amazing thing about getting water from the natural moisture in the air... is that it is ALWAYS available.

This gives you real water security!

� What Tinnitus Does To Your Brain Cells (And How To Stop It)

After 47 years of studies and countless brain scans done on more than 2,400 tinnitus patients, scientists at the MIT Institute found that in a shocking 96% of cases, tinnitus was actually shrinking their brain cells.

As it turns out, tinnitus and brain health are strongly linked.

Even more interesting: The reason why top army officials are not deaf after decades of hearing machine guns, bombs going off and helicopter noises...

Is because they are using something called "the wire method", a simple protocol inspired by a classified surgery on deaf people from the 1950s...

Most People Don't Have The Guts To Try This:

An amazing discovery in an abandoned house in Austin, Texas: A lost book of amazing survival knowledge, believed to have been long vanished to history, has been found in a dusty drawer in the house which belonged to a guy named Claude Davis.

Remember... back in those days, there was no electricity... no refrigerators... no law enforcement... and certainly no grocery store or supermarkets... Some of these exceptional skills are hundreds of years of old and they were learned the hard way by the early pioneers.
