Learning to grow microgreens and other things that you can grow indoors in the winter. I brought in the greenstalk last night and am hoping that the cold weather didnt already destroy the Egyptian spinach and Okinawan Spinach. Gowing to try growing Kale in there with it over the winter and starting some sweet potato slips for the greens too. I think lettuce grown inside is bitter, hoping I find the right greens to grow.

Here in Southeast Texas our winters are usually short, mid-December through mid-February. I’ll finish some long overdue work inside our log house. I plan to do inside seed starting probably mid to late January. Also need to do some more storage room cleanup before spring garden work begins in earnest.

Hoping to get a greenhouse from Growers Solutions on Black Friday. Build a larger chicken coop that I can actually walk in and hold more chickens.

Building things and woods work(firewood, moving brush)

Just moved to new property in AR. Need to get some trees in the ground to get the food forest started. Build chicken tractor, get my perimeter electric up, lots more.

A lot I’d like to be doing on my property, however, I only currently get maybe 4-6 hours there a week, and I’m only 10 miles away. I still need to get a 10×12 shed moved 50 miles to the property, but before that have to make the pad to put it on.

Level out and probably gravel a pad for the 5th wheel, and find someone with a truck that could actually get it to the spot (likely a 4wd dually needed)

If my house sells, order the bits and bobs to put the full solar system in an enclosed trailer (looking at dual Victron Quattro’s for 110 and 220, build for the future, and at least two full racks of SOK or EG4 batteries.

Get enough trees cleared that I can level ground for a shop and my high tunnel.

Start using the sawmill and get a drying shed built.

Start the food forest.

What’cha think, couple of weekends?

[TagNBee]

Ha I would that qualifies and a week or two. If Bee was doing it , it might take 4 weeks.

I like to use winter to work on learning or improving new skills. Last winter I taught myself how to knit. I need to use this winter to improve!!

I like to research new recipes for the things I grow in spring and summer. Having more than one idea how to prep a food item is a big struggle for me. I am not one that can just throw things together. I really need a plan/recipe.

I want to get better about canning ready to go meals. I have done a few and have enjoyed the ease of having a meal with little to no prep. I want to try to can some more to build up my pantry.

I also use the winter to stock up on my soap inventory. During growing season, I don’t have time to make soap.

We want to get started on building a small chicken coop. A tree fell on our cattle panel greenhouse and home so we have those repairs we are currently doing. We plan to build a potting table and some raised beds inside it once the repairs are finished. We also have a large 8 x 8 raised bed we are going to turn into a keyhole garden as it’s just too big to manage vegetables. That should keep us busy for a while.

This winter we’re building a 60×20 greenhouse. I’ve wanted one for 30 years, so this is truly a dream come true for me. 🥰

[TagNBee]

So really great responses. I’m looking forward to the winter.

My goals are sawing lumber for a cabin. Making a hydrogen cook stove. And to build a magnetic motor.

[TagNBee]

These are big goals.

I need to set up my seed starting shelves and figure out the grow lights. My pantry is overflowing and I need to inventory and rearrange it. By February, I want to have my little lean to green house built outside too.

[Jeremy-aka-One-Step-Closer]

Just finished my first Kratky beds, I plan to use what I learn to create an indoor seed starting system, Then work on growing my handyman business, and finally get started on starting my youtube channel.
