driftdiver, you are up now. I don’t know much beyond what I saw in some video my daughter insisted I look at. I’ll ask her what it was when she gets here. It was more of a look what can be done to inspire people than a how to.
Marcella, it’s not necessarily just an outdoor proposition. When I first started to research growing stuff indoors, I came up with all sorts of unique ways of secretly growing stuff indoors with hydroponics. Including hidden closets, fake speakers and consoles. LOL
It wasn’t the kind of crop or growing medium that I was looking for so I didn’t do much reading. But hey it might make more sense when SHTF.
A garden outdoors can be seen and coveted. An indoor hydroponic with grow lights on batteries rechargeable by solar methods, and in a hidden closet could have real possibilities. Maybe I was too quick to discard this method. LOL Gonna put it back on my list for later research.
The only space I would have inside is a spare bedroom and if my son and liberal sister-in-law and husband came, the three bedrooms would be used.
No one can see in my garden. This is a row of townhouses and there is a very high solid thick brick wall between our gardens. It takes a ladder to get high enough to look over the brick walls. There are older people here and I think in an emergency situation, the families of these people would come get them. That is what happens when a hurricane comes through - the families get their parents out of here.
This place is gated and no one gets in. It’s also so hidden no one can find the street that goes to this place unless they have been here before and even then, it’s hard to find. I have to watch or I will pass the street myself.
Point is, my small garden is hidden from eyes. I have a rather large deck out there and think that’s where this project would be. Less bugs should happen too if it’s not on the ground.
