10 years ago my focus was growing “400 bushel corn” … it gets a lot of attention, but it’s unpractical. The laws of diminishing returns cost you more than it gains you. Today I focus on capturing more value from free things. Attributes are assets if you can employ them. We’re finishing up our relay beans with the last pass here. For you to be in the right frame of mind you have to leave the mindset of maximizing monocrop yields and instead maximizing acre yield efficiently. Each day is hyper critical in the profitability of this system… that’s why even when we reach that peak ultimate practice efficiency… we’ll still be maxed at maybe 30-40% of our acres. I can only do things great within the constraints of time. I lay out all the specifics here but this is some truths I’ve learned from chasing high yields.. to conventional… no till… strip till… relay… alley… organic… grazing … Intergrazing… silvopasture Less plants require less inputs, especially nitrogen Soil temperature and WEOC drive plant growth Weed pressures come with bare soil You can index… or reallocate anything from fertilizers, chemistry, seed, etc You can cheat any system by leaning on the constraints to make the system work best Here in this specific system Follow early corn. The attributes of corn canopy, residue, N scavenge is an asset Plant wheat early. Every day in late September is worth 10x of those in late October Control weeds in the fall cheaply with good timing before you have them Control weeds in the spring and summer with timing and expedited canopy closure A great harvest plan for the wheat and the pruning of it, the straw, and the ☀️ is 10x more effective than any soil amendment or spray fertilizer. Account for the capability of single plants. They can yield 10x of a bunch of them slammed in a field competing with one another Sequencing plants allows you to stage different plant perceptions to get expressions, let live, and use their natural death to your advantage.

Non-GMO doesn't mean good. Not on bread. GMO usually means glyphosate resistant, engineered so you can spray the chemical on the crop and only the weeds around it die. With wheat, the worst use of glyphosate has nothing to do with resistance. It's sprayed on the fields right before harvest as a desiccant, to kill the plant on purpose so it dries out faster. That wheat gets crushed into flour and goes straight into your bread, one of the highest glyphosate loads in anything you'll eat. Non-GMO wheat is what makes that possible, because it's vulnerable enough to die when they spray it. That's exactly what they want when it's being used as a desiccant. So the non-GMO label on your loaf of bread isn't protecting you. It's a sign the wheat was killed with the same chemical you thought you were avoiding.

If your dishwasher smells funky... it's probably hiding this disgusting secret. Most people rinse their dishes... but forget to clean the machine doing all the work. Here's the 10-minute deep clean your dishwasher will thank you for: Remove the filter and soak it in warm water, white vinegar, and a little dish soap. Wipe the door seals, edges, and the bottom lip inside the door—one of the dirtiest spots that often never gets rinsed. Run an empty hot cycle with a dishwasher cleaning tablet, or place a glass of white vinegar on the top rack if you don't have one. Before starting the cycle, run your kitchen sink until the water is hot so the dishwasher begins cleaning with hot water instead of cold. Bonus tip: If your dishwasher has spray arms with clogged holes, use a toothpick or soft brush to clear them. Better water flow means cleaner dishes. A clean dishwasher doesn't just smell better—it cleans better, lasts longer, and can even help prevent cloudy glasses and mystery residue. What's one household cleaning hack that made you wonder, "Why didn't I know this years ago?"

🇮🇹 If you think potato salad has to be drenched in heavy mayonnaise, Insalata Pantesca will completely change your mind. Famously known as the traditional potato salad of Sicily, specifically from the island of Pantelleria. This dish is a masterclass in Italian simplicity. Like most classic Italian recipes, it champions fresh, high-quality ingredients. Rather than using mayo, it relies on a bright, zesty vinaigrette made with extra virgin olive oil and red wine vinegar to bind the ingredients together, creating a perfectly balanced and refreshing Mediterranean side dish. 🎥 our_cookingjourney | IG

The Garden Wealth in Your Trash ​Stop throwing away your garden’s future! 🚫🗑️ ​Most of us are literally paying to throw away the best fertilizer on the planet, only to go to the store and buy chemical-filled bags. It’s time to close the loop. ♻️🪴 ​I’ve been testing these 3 natural hacks, and the results are honestly insane. If you want your plants to thrive without spending a dime, watch this: ​1. The Nitrogen "Tea" 🍵 ​Forget expensive nitrogen spikes. Old tea bags + oats = the ultimate protein shake for your plants. It gives them that deep green color and rapid growth they crave. ​2. The "Fizzing" Calcium Hack 🧪🥚 ​Plants struggle to digest raw eggshells—it takes years for them to break down. But when you mix crushed shells with vinegar? You create a bio-available calcium foam that strengthens plant "bones" (cell walls) instantly. Science is cool. ​3. DIY Golden Bone-Meal 🍗✨ ​Don't toss those leftover chicken bones! Cleaning, drying, and grinding them creates a high-phosphorus powder that’s essential for massive blooms and fruit production. It’s garden gold. ​Why this works: ✅ Zero Waste ✅ Zero Chemicals ✅ Zero Dollars spent ​Your garden is a living ecosystem—treat it like one! 🌍💪 ​Which of these are you trying first?

Borax. Boron is the element. Borax is the soft mineral salt mined from dried lake beds. Mildly alkaline, indefinite shelf life, and one of the most versatile compounds you can stock. Storage: keep it sealed in plastic or glass, not the cardboard box it comes in. Its enemies for storage are moisture and acids. Store cool and dry and it lasts forever. What it does: Soldering flux. Borax helps clean and prep metal surfaces for joining. Old school metalwork move that still works. Ant and roach bait. Mix borax with sugar or peanut butter to create a highly effective bait. The insects carry it back to the colony and it wipes them out. Mold prevention spray. Dissolved in water it inhibits mold and mildew on surfaces that stay damp. Bathrooms, basements, and outbuildings. Alkaline cleaning paste. Borax creates one of the best homemade heavy duty cleaners for grease, baked-on food, and grime. Shelf stable laundry formula ingredient. Softens water, boosts stain removal, and cuts body oils that make clothes stink. A few things worth knowing: Borax is caustic to skin over time. Wear gloves when handling it in solutions. Rinse thoroughly if you get it on your hands. Don't confuse borax with boric acid. Both are useful but they're different compounds with different applications. Borax is more alkaline. Boric acid is more acidic. Store away from acids. Any acidic contact neutralizes borax and wastes both compounds. Borax is one of the compounds covered in the upcoming Prepper's Chemical Survival Guide (the actual title of the chemical compounds recipe book).

If you want a thriving, sustainable garden without the headache, you need to see these game-changing techniques. Most people are doing these things the hard way—or the wrong way! Here is the safest and most efficient way to master your garden, plus why they actually work: The Bee Oasis: Never leave deep standing water for bees; they can drown. Use a shallow terra cotta saucer filled with pebbles or marbles and just enough water to wet them. This gives them a safe "landing pad" to drink without the risk. The "Bottoms-Up" Watering Method: Stop watering from the top! By placing your pots in a shallow tray of water, you encourage the roots to grow downward seeking moisture, leading to a stronger, more resilient root system. It also prevents crown rot and fungus gnats that love damp topsoil. Zero-Waste Seed Starts: Stop buying plastic trays. Simply roll recycled cardboard tubes into biodegradable pots. They break down naturally in the soil, meaning zero transplant shock for your delicate seedlings. The Vinegar Revive: Before you toss that "rusted" tool, try a 24-hour soak in plain white vinegar. The acid breaks down the oxidation, saving you money and keeping your tools sharp and sanitary. Perfect Soil Prep: Don't pick through your garden beds by hand. Use a wire waste basket or a mesh sifter to quickly separate rocks and debris from your soil. This creates the loose, aerated texture that roots crave. Gardening is all about working with nature, not against it. These small shifts save time, reduce waste, and lead to much healthier plants. Which of these are you adding to your weekend garden checklist?

Most people are doing yard work wrong, and it’s costing extra time and money. ​Ever wonder why weed wacker string seems to snap every two seconds, forcing a pause to constantly bump the head or re-spool the line? It turns out there is a legitimate science to maintaining trimmer line, and a simple 24-hour trick completely changes the game. ​Most trimmer lines are made of nylon, a material known for being hydrophilic. This means it actively absorbs moisture. ​Over time, sitting in a hot garage or a dry tool shed causes the plastic to lose its moisture content, becoming brittle and prone to snapping on impact. Immersing a new spool of weed wacker wire in a bucket of water for 24 hours before winding it into the trimmer replenishes that lost moisture. This makes the plastic significantly more pliable, durable, and resilient against tough weeds and chain-link fences. ​To make the line last even longer and get the yard done faster, keep these strategies in mind: ​Store Spools in a Cool Place: Never leave spare trimmer line in direct sunlight or the trunk of a car. UV rays and intense heat degrade nylon quickly. Storing the spool in a sealed bag with a damp paper towel helps maintain peak flexibility. ​Let the Tips Do the Work: The most common mistake is crowding the weeds. The highest cutting power is at the very tip of the string. Pushing the trimmer head directly into thick brush or hard surfaces causes friction heat, which binds the line together inside the spool and leads to premature snaps. ​Choose the Right Shape: Round line is durable but tears grass rather than cutting it cleanly. Square or twisted lines have sharp edges that slice through heavy weeds effortlessly, reducing the strain on both the engine and the line itself. ​Taking care of the tools makes the work easier. Try soaking the next spool of line and notice how much longer it lasts.

He claims this homemade mosquito spray works better than anything you can buy at the store… and it’s only two ingredients. All-natural mosquito spray • 1 cup water • 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract Pour into a spray bottle, shake, and you’re good to go. Want it to last a little longer or dry faster? Add 1 tablespoon of vodka or rubbing alcohol. (note that the rubbing alcohol might be drying to your skin though) This natural pantry spray tends to wear off quickly (usually within 30 to 60 minutes) compared to the chemical options, but I’d rather reapply than put that stuff on my skin. Would you try this one, or are you sticking with the store-bought stuff?

Rutgers University scientist Thierry Besançon just proved lasers can zap weeds as effectively as herbicides—without a single chemical! In the first peer-reviewed East Coast trials (published June 2025 in Pest Management Science), Carbon Robotics' AI-guided LaserWeeder matched (or beat) conventional herbicides on spinach, peas, and beets. Key wins: - Pinpoint precision — zaps weeds 0.5 cm from crop seedlings with zero damage to the crop - Up to 97% weed biomass reduction in tests Better crop growth in some cases - No herbicides = safer for workers, consumers, environment, and sidesteps resistant superweeds like Palmer amaranth Besançon: "It’s pure physics. Just light energy targeting the weeds." Farmers with specialty crops (few herbicide options) are already interested. Challenges: High cost (~$500K+), needs multiple passes, works best on small weeds—but tech is evolving fast (faster models coming). This could revolutionize sustainable farming on the East Coast and beyond. No more "Roundup-ready" dependency? What do you think—laser weeders the future, or too expensive/practical yet? (From Rutgers/Cornell 2025 study + recent reports—game-changing ag tech!)

When ant hills start cropping up all over the yard, the knee-jerk reaction for many is to sprint to the hardware store for a jug of heavy-duty, synthetic pesticide. But before flooding the lawn with harsh chemicals that can affect pets, helpful pollinators, and the local soil, it pays to look inside the kitchen pantry. A remarkably effective, non-toxic hack for managing an ant problem requires nothing more than mixing equal parts baking soda and powdered sugar. Here is exactly how it works and why it is so effective: The Science Behind the Secret The Bait: Ants have a massive sweet tooth, but they are incredibly smart foragers. They will easily sniff out and avoid pure baking soda. However, when it is meticulously mixed with finely ground powdered sugar (confectioners' sugar), they cannot separate the two. The sweetness masks the deterrent, drawing them in. The Mechanism: Baking soda is highly alkaline. When ants consume it, it reacts with the acidic fluids in their digestive systems. Because ants cannot expel internal gas the way mammals can, the sudden chemical reaction is fatal to them. The Delivery: Foragers won't just eat it on the spot; they will carry this sweet, lethal mixture back to the heart of the colony, effectively taking care of the root of the problem. How to Apply It Simply blend a 50/50 mix of the two ingredients in a container and shake well. Sprinkle it directly around the perimeter of active mounds or along known ant trails. Other All-Natural Alternatives If baking soda isn’t on hand, a few other household staples can disrupt pest patterns naturally: White Vinegar: Spraying a simple solution of vinegar and water along entry points dissolves the scent trails ants use to navigate, leaving them completely disoriented. Diatomaceous Earth (Food Grade): A completely natural powder made from fossilized algae. It is harmless to humans and pets but breaks down the exoskeletons of crawling insects on contact. Essential Oils: Peppermint, tea tree, and citrus oils act as powerful natural repellents. A few drops near windows and doors keep unwanted visitors at bay. Relying on massive chemical interventions isn't always necessary to keep a property balanced. Sometimes, the safest, cheapest, and most elegant solutions are already sitting right next to the baking supplies.

A completely free, highly effective remedy growing wild on our property at about 6,000 feet in dry, rocky Colorado: Mullein How to identify and harvest it: Mullein is a biennial, meaning it lives two years. Year one is a flat rosette of big, soft, fuzzy leaves close to the ground. Year two sends up a tall flower stalk, sometimes 5 or 6 feet high with yellow flowers. You can use the leaves, flowers, and roots. For this, let's focus on the leaves. Pick them, pull them apart, and air dry them. Once dried you can make a tea or a tincture (there are more methods, but those are the main two). But why? Mullein helps with coughing, bronchitis, and chest congestion. It can be used as a poultice for minor wounds, burns, and rashes. The leaves contain saponins and mucilage that soothe irritated airways and loosen mucus. A few things worth knowing: Always strain mullein tea through a coffee filter or fine cloth. The tiny leaf hairs can irritate your throat if they get into the tea. Harvest leaves from clean areas away from roadsides and sprayed fields, since the plant absorbs what's in the soil and air around it. Dry them completely before storing or they'll mold. Once fully dried and kept in a sealed jar away from light, they hold for a year or more.

A few things worth knowing: Always strain mullein tea through a coffee filter or fine cloth. The tiny leaf hairs can irritate your throat if they get into the tea. Harvest leaves from clean areas away from roadsides and sprayed fields, since the plant absorbs what's in the soil and air around it. Dry them completely before storing or they'll mold. Once fully dried and kept in a sealed jar away from light, they hold for a year or more.

David Friedberg explains that owning a home is worse than investing in stocks Calls it the "Great lie" FRIEDBERG: "This is one of the great lies. Convincing everyone that the great American dream is to own a house. When owning a house for a lot of Americans ends up putting all your capital in one asset, and you've got to basically get the price of housing to go up every year to keep everyone moving up the ladder." "So now, fast forward 30, 40, 50 years, young people can't afford to buy a house anymore because we've pushed the asset value up so much to try and make sure that everyone's got good household wealth." BARTLETT: "We are told. I mean, that's the sort of central idea once you leave university—is to figure out how quickly you can get a mortgage or buy a house." FRIEDBERG: "Great lie. It's one of the great lies. And there's a lot of countries where people have been able to accumulate capital and jump that ravine from labor to capital much more quickly when they don't buy a house because they can invest in stuff. They can buy, you know, the S&P 500, which you can just buy on an E-Trade or Robinhood account, and you can just own it; on average, it will make you 10-11% a year. You just put your money in that, you're making 10-11% a year, and it can go up every year, and you don't have to pay taxes. You don't have to pay property tax. You don't have to pay insurance. You don't have to deal with repairs and maintenance. All that sort of stuff. So, a lot of people would have been better off, depending on the markets that they're in. There's some markets that ballooned, but a lot of people would have been better off over the last 30 years actually owning the S&P 500 than owning their home and paying for the rent on a home."

Robert Kennedy Jr. says roughly 90% of Americans have glyphosate in their blood. Most have no idea what it is or how it got there. Glyphosate is the chemical inside Roundup, which is the weed killer used on nearly every cornfield in America. In 2006, farmers started spraying it directly on wheat to dry it out before harvest. That was the first time glyphosate was applied directly to our food. What happened next was predictable: • Celiac disease and gluten allergies exploded that same year. • Non-Hodgkin lymphoma was proven in court to be caused by glyphosate. • It destroys critical structures in the gut microbiome that have plant-like metabolisms. Kennedy says glyphosate is also an endocrine disruptor and has been linked to non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, cancers, and kidney disease. Before it became a weed killer, it was a tank scalant. It was used as a chemical used to strip or "scale" rust and calcium deposits from the inside of industrial tanks. Now, 95% of corn in the United States is sprayed with Roundup Ready, a weed killer with chemical in it. — Robert Kennedy Jr. (Robert F.

Can you restore a BlackStone sent to the wasteland...? Some solid tips here on "how-to." You can absolutely restore a rusty curb-find Blackstone griddle from the wasteland and make it last for years with proper care. Start by firing up all the burners on high for about 20 minutes to loosen old seasoning and surface rust, then let it cool slightly. Once it’s manageable, scrape off loose debris with a metal spatula or scraper. Apply a thin layer of cooking oil and scrub vigorously in circular motions using a pumice grill stone (the most effective tool), steel wool, or medium-grit sandpaper. For stubborn rust spots, a vinegar-and-water mix can sit for a few minutes to help dissolve it before wiping everything clean. Rinse lightly with water if needed, but dry the surface completely—using low heat helps evaporate any moisture to prevent new rust. The key to longevity is re-seasoning: spread a very thin layer of high-smoke-point oil like flaxseed (ideal), avocado, or canola across the entire cooktop with a paper towel. Heat it on medium-high until it smokes, usually 15–20 minutes, then repeat this process 3–5 times to build a dark, durable non-stick patina. Over time, food will stick less and the surface will perform like new. To keep it lasting “forever,” always clean it while still hot after every use by scraping residue, wiping with warm water, and applying a light oil coat. Never use soap unless doing a deep clean, avoid leaving it exposed to rain, and store it covered or indoors. Re-season monthly or as needed, and it will reward you with many great cooks ahead. Grab a grill stone, scraper, and some oil, and you’ll have it back in action in just a couple of hours plus seasoning time. 🔥
