Monotarcie. Quelques condimentaires que j'utilise couramment... elles sont importantes pour varier et donner du goût, plus encore si l'on cuisine végétarien ou végétalien... un petit origan qui fait de jolis tapis et possède un goùt et une odeur forte et agréable ; je l'utilise beaucoup... en outre avant qu'il ne se mette à fleurir je le coupe et sèche de façon à en avoir le restant de l'année... il se multiplie très facilement en prélevant des brins avec la racine, et a l'air d'aimer le sol chez nous... (ce qui n'est pas le cas de certaines autres condimentaires) âche des montagnes, ou livèche, ou encore maggi : j'utilise en vert et en sec... séché il a un peu moins de goût mais intéressant quand même, dans les bouillons que nous faisons souvent. il pousse moyennement bien chez moi car semble préférer un sol calcaire ; j'arrive cependant à en avoir suffisamment : il reste petit alors que des vieux du village en ont qui monte à graine en faisant bien un mètre et demi de hauteur lorsqu'il fleurit...

Chill food without electricity with the flowerpot fridge. Here is a video version of how to make the world's cheapest and easiest refrigerator from two terracotta pots. It uses minimal resources and runs completely without electricity. It's called a zeer pot, or the pot-in-pot and was rebirthed by Mohammed Bah Abba, who put the laws of thermodynamics to work for mankind.

Patrick Whitefield previously posted a solution here on permaculture.co.uk describing how to make this simple device but here is a visiual/auditory how to with the added advantage of some temperature testing on a hot day in the USA at the end. You'll be suitably impressed at how cold this design gets. Wonderful! Good and cheap. Déligneuse gruminette. DIY Forced Air Wood Gas Stove Part 1 - How To Build It. IntenseAngler Outdoors.

Thanks for checking out my new online series. Here is the trailer — and there is much to follow, in fact, every week there will be a new episode. I decided to make this show in an attempt to combine my three passions… food, film and creating positive change in this world. More and more, what we eat is of paramount importance, and as I live in the Midwest, I’ve decided to make this show about the way I would like to eat here.

There’s a lot going on in Central Time Land — great people doing great things, carrots waiting to be planted, deer hoping not to get shot, and miles and miles of corn. Enjoy, and come back soon. — Daniel. How-to. First off, don’t buy root bound plants. It’s just a bad business, trouble and tears. In general, you should always try to buy the youngest plants you can find. They are healthier than plants which have spent more time in a pot, and will quickly grow to match the size of older, more expensive–and more likely than not–root bound plants. How do you know if the plant is root bound?

Look at the bottom of the pot and see if roots are poking out the bottom. But sometimes we end up with a root bound plant. As I tried to resuscitate and plant these babies, I realized that I should post this technique on the blog, in case it might be helpful to others. How to Save Root Bound Plants First off, I’ve found that root bound plants are often dehydrated plants, because the pots are mostly full of roots, making the soil hard and water repellant. In these extremes cases, there is also usually a thick mat of tangled roots at the bottom of the root ball, pressed into the exact shape of the pot bottom.
