Going to do a couple things this week. One is, a planting tutorial, showing you the different methods I've used to start my seeds and some of the results of them. Another, is going to set a $ amount, unknown how much atm, and go to both one of the local dollar stores and a thrift store and see how much prep stuff I can get at both. Will do a video for the planting, not sure if I'll do one in stores, maybe just the results.

If anybody has a topic they would like to see addressed, please comment and I'll see what I can do! And who knows, if I can get subscribers,followers, etc. maybe we'll have to do a giveaway! Mrs. Prepper

Here is a list I made up of what I call prepper mentality. See if you agree or not. Pick a SHTF scenario and just for the purpose of this little test, say you have 30 minutes to load up your family and what can fit in your car. Little likelihood of having a home to come back to or heavy damage. What does the non prepper choose vs a prepper?

Non Prepper:
box or 2 of family photos
jewelry
makeup
clothes
china/artwork/antiques
cameras/gaming devices/computer
dvd player/dvd's
important papers
other mementos

Prepper:
Your already prepared bug out bags
tents/camping supplies
medical supplies
weapons
food/water preps
tools
essential clothing

Now, not to make fun of those who don't prep or don't understand it, but if you really think about it and compare those two lists, who is the one who will be trying to take your items, because they put themselves into that situation. Take for example Hurricane Katrina, they knew enough ahead of time to leave. They saw how strong a storm it was. Some left, some stayed in their own homes, some went to shelters. If you choose to not be prepared for whatever events, I'm not saying you don't deserve to be helped, if someone is in a position themselves to offer it, but you have no right to use force or expect everyone else to give. Don't get me wrong, if possible, you come looking or asking for help, I'll do my best, but to demand it or try to harm me or mine, sorry, you put yourself in that boat.

I just have the feeling if something bad happend, to radically change our way of living, there is going to be alot of people with this mentality and this is why we need to spread the word about preparedness. The more people who are of this mindset the better we will all be. Mrs. Prepper

Hope you all have had a chance to check out my youtube channel. I just made another short  one tonight, just have to do the voice over. I've always wondered about the different things you can use in an emergency for tinder to get a fire going. So, the video is of me using the following items and seeing first, if they lite up and then if so, do they stay lit long enough to get a fire going. I used: dryer lint, corn chip and walnut( I've heard that on facebook from a few different sites, that because of the high oil content, they would work),a crayon and a natural wood fiber nugget. Check out my video later tomorrow and see what worked and what didn't!!  Please, like,share,comment and subscribe to my channel, thanks Mrs. Prepper

Since its spring, I'm going to talk a little bit about planting. I started my indoor planting a bit early, like back in late Feb! Was just a wee bit impatient. Now I have about 50 some tomato plants around 8-14 inches tall, both kidney beans and jacobs golden cattleman dry beans, also the same height, a few peppers,pickling cuc's.
I've tried a couple different ways of starting the seeds. Bought the pellets that you soak in water and they expand, the seedling trays where you just add the soil, homemade newspaper pots. I've had the most success with the pellets. Now, as for transplanting into bigger pots and yes you do need to do this, they quickly out grew their little starters. Unless you have unlimited money, especially after buying grow lights ( I have 8) several bags of soil,stands to set everything on, it can get pricey. So instead of buying larger pots, unless I find some at a thrift store, I've devised a better way. Gallon milk or water jugs, rinsed out, just cut around the top, about 4 inches, right thru the handle, but you want to leave most of handle intact, that way you have a way to carry it. Just remember to poke several holes in bottom for drainage and place in a pie tin or whatever tray you have on hand. Happy planting! Mrs. Prepper

Sorry about the lack of posts. Was sick for a week or 2 with bronchitis and sinus infection, then lost my job after 5 1/2 years. So kind of been recouping from all that. I've started a youtube channel and I'll be giving you the link and I should be back to posting here in a day or so.Mrs. Prepperhttps://www.youtube.com/user/superpotaoman300

Another great giveaway!
