Planting Plans For One Person

MRSMCAWBER

Thankyou Ceridwen and everyone else for all the private tutoring... I have done it :j
Now I can go back to concentrating on the veggies.... hopefully I will be able to be of help with that bit if anyone gets stuck

Right - I've now got my gardening notes into a form that suits me. I shall add bits that I feel I need for my own personal situation as I come across them.

Its just a private notebook basically thats all - of what suits me to make a note of in my position - ie single/busy/with a positively teensy bit of outside space to grow anything in. But if anyone wants to have a looksee I've "left the door open" rather than making it another private blog for myself only:

looks good Ceridwen! I'll have a bit more of a think later on... (if you keep it open to viewers.. may I link to it on my blog?)

ceridwen

Thanks. Of course you can link to it if you like.

Like I said - it IS only a private notebook for me - but I will keep it open in case anyone else wants to share.

Fascinating, how many communities there are online, and how many people are willing to share their knowledge.

It is lovely and I will be going back.

Am having trouble with the youtube links, which I do not have on other sites (for instance http://transitionculture.org/).

Thought you might like couple of other links

Michael Gurra's grea article http://www.permaculture-magazine.co.uk/articles/archive/article_34.html

and a US urban homesteading site http://www.pathtofreedom.com/

Both these families have over 10 years experience.

Hi

Glad you like it RAS.

I've just been rechecking those YouTube links you commented on - and they all came through fine. So - dont know why the problem. Are you clicking on the 2nd line down - rather than the heading? (as the 2nd line is the one to click on). Failing that - I wonder if maybe its summat along the lines of you not having the latest version of FlashPlayer or summat on your computer?? I know YouTube has revamped their site recently - so maybe thats what it is. Have you tried getting other YouTube clips since their revamp?

But - no problems this end. I check out my links when I post them to make sure they work - and I've just had that further check and no problem.

edit; Thanks for the clips. Have just had a read of the first one - I have taken to getting the magazine - but not got any back issues, so twas interesting to read that one. I have had the Dervaes family as a link on my main blog - and now added their Journal to this one - as they are a very good example and are growing a huge amount of food on that small plot - so a good example. They obviously "get it" as to how things are going.

Anyways - do feel free to post comments on "MyGardeningNotes".

Thanks again

Have you tried getting other YouTube clips since their revamp? Just checked the latest (9th December) link on the Transition Towns site and it works.

I can play the TT stuff but I do get a message about flash when I log on, so I will OK it tomorrow and try again afterwards. Then let you know.
