Short on gardening space? Consider learning how to grow potatoes in grow bags and other containers. Other benefits of this gardening technique include easier harvesting, protection from contamination / pests – and containers can be placed anywhere or even moved during the growing season. According to Patrick Dolan from OYR Frugal and Sustainable Organic Gardening, growing potatoes in containers and bags is as simple as it’s effective.

Potato Varieties: The process starts with identifying the ideal potato varieties for growing in containers. The general rule of thumb is to go for either fingerling potatoes (oblong-shaped) or early maturity varieties. Also, consider using certified and pesticide-free seed potatoes that are free from diseases.

Choosing a Container: The next step is picking out a suitable container to house the potatoes and growing medium. Anything works—including pots, fabric bags, or even buckets. The larger the container, the better – i.e., more room for the roots to spread and form tubers.

Growing Medium: Pour a lightweight, free-draining soil mix into the container. You can use a potting mix or a blend of compost, vermiculite, and peat moss. If the top inches feel dry, water the plants and allow the water to drain from the holes at the bottom. Potatoes thrive in temperatures of 16º Celsius (60ºF) and some sunlight.

Harvesting: Keep an eye for yellow flowers, which often signify that the potatoes are ready for harvest. For this step, you can simply dump the contents of the container and separate the potato tuber from the soil by hand. With containers, you also get to harvest all the potatoes very easily, with little-to-no scarring or cuts from sharp tools. The final step is to cure and prepare them for storage.

Note: Don’t expose growing tubers (the actual potato part of the plant) to sunlight as they may develop green areas, which are potentially toxic.

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.
