How to Grow a Coconut Palm from a Coconut! Photo – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BieelvE_ZPI
This video by TheKiwiGrower is the first in a series of four that will teach you how to grow your own tree from a dehusked coconut that you would usually find in stores.
Did you know that the coconut palm has been called the “three generation tree”? If it’s well cared for, your grandchildren will be able to enjoy its fruits for quite some time! The scientific name of the coconut is Cocos nucifera. The word nucifera means “nut-bearing”.
Palm trees grow best outdoors in high-humidty, sunny climates with a rainy season. In the video, you would see that TheKiwiGrower tried to imitate the tropical climate by keeping it indoors in a warm area – also covering the pot with a saran wrap to mimic the humid environment that it’s used to.
If you live in a tropical area and you want to plant your own coconut, choose a freshly-fallen coconut fruit that is brown and slightly shrunken. There should be liquid inside. Allow the coconut to germinate by submerging it in a bucket of water for 2-3 days.

Get a 3 gallon pot or container that is 10 inches deep. Place rocks/stones on the bottom for proper drainage. Mix your potting mix with some compost and sand. This will create a good environment for your plant to grow. Insert the coconut with its pointy end down in the potting mix. Push the coconut in until one third of it can be seen above the soil.
Place the pot in a sunny location and water it well with warm water. Keep the soil moist but not soggy. In due time, it will start to sprout. It may take some time for the plant to develop (usually within 3-6 months). Once your tree starts to develop tree fronds, start enriching the soil with fertilizer.
Coconut has a lot of uses. You can make lots of yummy food from its fruit. You can literally make use of every part of the tree. The people who live in tropical climates call it the “tree of life”.
Okay, here is the video:

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.

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.

We've lost to history so much survival knowledge that we've become clueless compared to what our great grandfathers did or built on a daily basis to sustain their families.
Neighbors said that for the last couple of years Claude has tried to unearth and learn the forgotten ways of our great-grandparents and claimed to have found a secret of gargantuan proportions. A secret that he is about to reveal together with 3 old teachings that will change everything you think you know about preparedness:

What REALLY Happens When You Bury a Shipping Container? (Hint: It's A Bit Crazy...)
Shipping containers are all the rage - but if you are thinking about buying one, you MUST watch this video first:
Do not, I repeat do NOT do what these lunatics did! Can you spot the "fatal mistake" they made?
There's a general belief that if you bury a shipping container you can create an awesome root cellar / storm shelter / survival bunker.
But is a shipping container strong enough to handle the pressure?

I already tried it myself and let me tell... you I was completely blown away... His surprising tactics could make your life easier and give you the peace of mind you deserve.
Don't just take my word for it... watch his short video and decide for yourself.

More Off-Grid And Survival Resources:
Since the soil would assumebly have a higher sand content than normal soil, id guess that almost any soil would do. Adding various nutrients would speed the process as well id suspect. The salt water and sand is very drying, so wouldnt even a basic potting blend be healthy? I dont live in a tropical climate at all, so i grow inside and use addatives to any soil base im using….still im a novice, so just guessing
The type of soil you’d want to use is a combination of pure ground dirt filled a 1/4 of the way up and the rest filled with sand. This tree will get big so I would suggest either a warm climate and plant outside once tall enough (5 foot), or an extremely large pot or greenhouse with a high roof that has dirt ground for flooring to dig into in colder climates. Good luck, your starting off strong!
Once the tree is established, how long does it typically take for the first coconuts to appear??
Do you know if coconut palms will grow in (way) south Texas? We have the heat but I’m not sure about the lack of rainfall. Can I “fake it” with extra watering?
Love the way he explain how coconut grows
