About the CHEMTRAILS … Yes, Tennessee has passed a law making those trails in the sky illegal. However, I have not heard of any arrests or any investigations. It seems it is a law that is not being enforced. Other unnecessary laws are still being vigorously enforced. If someone calls the police and reports some guy smoking some cannabis in the city park, a swat team will arrive quite quickly and that poor fellow will find himself in an orange jumpsuit before the day is out. Those airplanes can be tracked. They have to land somewhere. The criminals inside will have to come out and could then be handcuffed. I plead with all Tennesseans, please, when you see the trails in the sky, report a "crime in progress" to the sheriff or the state police and ask them for a follow up report, detailing what actions were taken. Let's find out exactly who is tasked with the enforcement of this new law and why they have done absolutely nothing for over six months. We are being sprayed like bugs. Some of the spraying may be for weather manipulation. It seems that's what they want us to believe now. I have a feeling much of the spraying is for other very nefarious purposes. It's a good law to have. Let's make sure they enforce it now.
You could avoid using plastic seed trays by crafting shallow trays from hard shell gourds. They would certainly last a year or maybe two or three. I'll bet you that's what they did in the good old days.
I looked at the transcript, trying to understand your comment about starting seeds in rolls. Couldn’t determine how that was being used, but when you said rolls, I thought about toilet paper cardboard rolls. You could put soil in them and the seeds and put these rolls in some kind of a tray. When the seeds germinate and you want to plant them in the ground, you pick up the toilet paper roll with its soil and seeds and plant the whole thing into the ground. Is this your intent with the rolls you are talking about?
Good Morning Kaye – Thanks for the updates and hoping for a better 2025 but will see. Does not surprise me about the continued trails as there are probably contracts for them to be done years out. Hope your water storage does not have a leak and the container is not compromised. So sad about your former home and praying for all those impacted. Look forward to your video on meters as many states will not let you chose analog but a few will. Take care my friend as planting season is just around the corner..
Such a sad and surreal, image with all the destruction.. nothing left, but the planters and the chimney. Great to see the red table on intro. thank you for sharing ! Unfortunately, they’ve been spraying in Southern IL lately as well
So so happy to see you safe ❤
You, just took a break and laid low during the artic blast and that's a good thing. I focused on tending the wood stove fire and putting up some attractive black out curtains across the 5ft archway between the front door/stairs going upstairs and leading into a quaint 1949 cape cod period living room with a beautiful original bead board wall and hearth. Looking at the 30 day forecast for Central VA, there are no sub-zero temps and I'm feeling spring is just around the corner. I hope your temps are trending upward into the 50's for Feb. Thank you for sharing your experiences on the homestead. You have taught me a lot!
Garden Answer sells paper seed trays on their website.
Rachel from That 1870's Homestead did a video last year using the snail roll method. The title was Small Roll Garden Hack. I believe she used some type of paper.
Seeing your video reminded me of when I lived in Cedar Hill, Tn in a rural area. I always joked about needing to wear an orange vest during hunting season when I went outside.
I am not a huge fan of all the Spacex, chem trails extra, drilling etc it dirties our environment.
♥️🙏♥️
LOL! I also have been glued to the news. I did finally get outside and did some cleanup work. We just had our house sided and new gutters put on the house. I asked them to put a gutter on a shed we call the "smoke house" and it empties into this type of container. They used the old gutter they took off of the house (recycle!). I figured I'd just drain it come fall as I won't be needing it as I mainly had it done for helping to water the flower beds. In SW MO we got down to 0 – not "feels like" temp. Started taking apart some old raised beds (cedar) and couldn't budge the ones on the north side and the ground was frozen in them. I'm so happy you got out of California when you did! Glad you're back – missed your "chat sessions"! I can't wait to start "gardening" again. Decided to try some seed tapes this year to see how they work. Old "Arthur" is letting me know he's around in my life, so I'm trying to make things a little easier – we'll see. Looking forward to the next "video". Stay safe and warm. I also have a little "Bistro" set on my front porch where I USED to have my morning coffee. Now, the cats have taken it over as their feeding station! They like the new cushions I bought for the chairs. The "possums like it also, LOL!
Since my fall on November 4th and the drastic slow down that caused me in the flesh, I’ve decided to start my seed under some frost clothes I set up last fall, before the fall🤣🤣🙄🤪🙌.ive asked as little as necessary while recovering , from Mr. Blair ;he has been a great nurse/ house keeper but doesn’t garden.weve been eating my preps so jars are sitting where I need to set trays🙄. I am sooooo much better but still using my comfrey ect and being very careful. I think I can get a few seed in the ground for my cabbage and broc atleast outside , I’m gonna try it anyway. I watch for your vids to go up!💋✝️🕊️❤️
❤ Thinking Of You Kaye On This Freezing Cold Morning In Maine , Love You ❤
Sorry you are being troubled by water expansion in your emergency tank and water condensation overhead. Hope things get better for you.
Kaye, it was nice to see a video from you. We have all been hibernating from these freezing temperatures. 🥶
The seed roll is called snail roll? Someone said they used denim? I’ll try it.
Good luck in all you do this season! ❤️❤️❤️
🙏🏻RFK fixes chem trails tho he said he’ll take chemicals out of chem trails 😮
Praying always praying. Stay well friend.
Blessings Kaye. So many tragedies but I have hope.
Give him a chance,4 year of Biden/Obama will not happen overnight.he has to get his cabinet people in place. Thank God for trump.
Wait…i thought the chemtrails were banned in Tennessee???🤔
Thank you for the confirmation pictures of your CA 1.0. I am so glad to see you working through it all. Here in NW Florida, we just had the SNOW-POCOLYPSE. I wonder if chemtrails had anything to do with it??
Just curious about your plans to get chickens. I'm thinking about getting my own chickens too. I have a lot of people around me that have chickens and I know I could get some from them if I can't order them. Still need to get my chicken house and run set up before I even think about it.
About a month ago i planted about 20 garlic, 2 pineapples, 2 celery, blue, black and raspberries, figs, Thai Chili 🌶️, and more. We had pouring rain all night and i knew it was coming so i moved as much as i could under the porch because i didnt want what was in the sky to go into my organic soil 😩. I drove from SFV into Simi and Moorpark during the day and as i went over the mountain the sky was a really weird color and smelled awful.
Trump needs to allow those in WNC to have those homes built by the Amish for them. He came to California and said to cut all the red tape, and allow people to do what they got to do! Wonder why he didnt do that in WNC?
My prayer list keeps getting longer as my gratitude grows. Peace and Blessings Kaye and all who frequent this channel 🏡
Glad your doing will my friend ❤ it's been a heart breaking yr. for so many destructions
Chemtrails I've taken pics for yrs. it's not good what humanity is breathing in including nature, my daughter in law and I have been having issues growing several veg. do to toxics layered apon the land, think its time to start growing in green houses or maybe it's to late 😢 ?
Remember in the 80s farmers were forced to obey Monsanto and gov. to destroy their seed crop they saved for the next yrs crop (heathy seeds organic)
Gov. & Monsanto came up with toxics for the plant's and destroying the microbes on all farmers lands, now every persons land is being done to Chemtrails, to windmills, to solar power grids, don't forget smart meters are included.
We are all being sicked down
Be safe y'all grow and share info of truth & help those who need a extra hand
There were a lot of trails yesterday in SW Ohio, too. Hoping that ends very soon, and wondered why it's still in Tennessee.
I'm so happy for you, and relieved you are safe. The pictures of Late Bloomer Garden 1. 0 was devastating. But looking forward to the gardening, yours and mine. Love you, love the channel. Have a very blessed day my friend. ❤ thanks for sharing.
I've found all vermiculite is good and no damping off!❤
I'm so sorry, there's been too much devastation. I live in the mountains of CA and had to evacuate several years ago. It's scary to wonder if your home will still be there when the fire is put out. Luckily the whole town was saved. It's very hard to keep fire insurance here and that's scary too. I'm paying triple now and if I ever couldn't get insurance I'd have to sell my home because I still have a mortgage.
Hello Kaye, it is good to see you. Thank you for the video! The skies here in Maine have the haze after the trails. Very cold up here in the minus temps with the wind chill. Hoping spring will be here soon. Praying for all who have been devastated by the waters and fires. Yah bless you🙏🙏❤
We got those same chem trails in our sky in Michigan. 😢
Prayfully you got the onions planted.
Soul blocks on wood trays, then put on a plastic tray minimizes the roots of the plant in touch with plastic. I’m using soil blocks this year and I love them! Although, mine didn’t work so well with onions, but all the greens are doing awesome!
Well, a rectangle pyrex baking dish is the same shape of a small plastic tray. You could try sprouting in that. Pinball puts his seeds in toilet paper between the 2 sheets and adds a little water on the sides to seal the paper. Then let it dry on your table.
Lastly, on your water container, if there is a lid on top, you could add a submersible fish tank heater. If it is a 300 gallon tank add something for 200 gallons. I have a 350 gallon fish tank outside and the heater i use keeps it at 75 degrees when it is 30 degrees outside. That could be another option…
Use a toilet roll or paper towel rolls as a growing container
It's been artic cold in KC too, this month has been a challenge. We are all past the darkest months of winter now…spring IS coming!
Aquarium heater? Re: seed roll – every time I've tried to use loo rolls or anything like that for seed sowing, they go mouldy and have to be thrown away. I'm a big fan of plastic and re-use plastic pots and plastic containers over and over again. I think Al Gore and his nonsense "Global Warming" has a lot to answer for and Greta's a menace. Let's lose the hysteria over plastic. The only ones benefitting from this "Green" agenda are those members of the Cabal. It's so nice to hear folk talking openly about the geo-engineering – people used to look askance at me when I mentioned it. We've barely seen sun in Scotland for such a long time. 2024 was an awful year for growing just about anything and we've just come through a massive storm. Whether natural or "encouraged" weather warfare, I don't know.
We have finally thawed from a rare 6 inches of snow in South Ga. I’ve been spending a lot of time under a heated blanket with a dog in my lap (she loves the blanket, too.) Not much getting done! But it’s good to take a break and slow down every now and then. Not much coming in with the garden right now.
