URGENT! PREPARE WHILE YOU CAN! How I Prep for Emergencies with Hydroponics: Grow More with Less.

We live in an uncertain world. Here is the reason I got into hydroponics as a way to make sure I could not just feed my family but keep us healthy and thriving in an emergency. But, the secret to being prepared for emergencies is learning NOW how to live a life of preparedness.

    I just found your channel when you were working with the Helene victims. Great channel. I’m going to work on some of these starting this week. God Bless you and your family.
    Here in Southeastern Pennsylvania we haven’t seen rain since early August!

    Thereโ€™s nothing normal about our weather anymore ๐Ÿ˜ฃ

    • @thinkforyourselfjohn3167 says:

      There isn’t I agree with you.

    • @pollysshore2539 says:

      No. The weather is changing and storms are getting stronger.

      Climate Change is happening.

      That said, we are in the dry season in Southern Appalachia. This is fire season.

      Weโ€™ve also done much, much, longer without rain. Weโ€™ve had droughts that lasted years.

      Thankfully much of WNC got a very light and steady rain yesterday. It was needed.

      Itโ€™s needed to help clear up reservoirs of drinking water, too..

    OMG ๐Ÿ˜ƒ Iโ€™ve been telling my husband all about you and your stories and amazing towers! We have been so busy preparing for our son, daughter-in-law, and grandson who are moving here from Nebraska! We are beyond excited, but boy do I wish I had these towers. We have a huge backyard which sounds like more of what you had in Florida. We are in the very very far northern part of California and I love to garden and make my own compost, and have a couple of raise garden beds, nothing to write home about; but fun! The majority of my time time is spent grooming the yard. I am retired now so itโ€™s a little bit easier, but it does take up most of my time. Ridiculous! Itโ€™s just been fun to go โ€œlook a cucumberโ€ฆ Lol!โ€ We are still able to pick pole beans and those are delicious. Like you said, it definitely would not sustain a person not even one person. I totally taste the difference in what I do grow because I donโ€™t put pesticides on everything. It grosses me out to go to a restaurant and order a salad and it tastes like bleach or something! I just admire you so much and will continue to watch your videos and just want to research and research so I do it right but I want to start sooner than later! Thank you so much for your videos and inspiration!๐Ÿ˜Š

    • @theaeroponictowerchannel says:

      I’m so glad you found me! We sound like kindred souls! That is so great your family is moving home. I think that is the best thing we can all do right now! I’m begging my inlaws to move here.

    I absolutely LOVE your lifestyle & home ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿปโค๏ธ and want more than anything to follow your path ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป unfortunately I do live in a very small apartment within a building of 4 total apartments so I feel panic that I have no way of getting myself set up to that level ๐Ÿฅบ I am in a 4 season area with Winter being the longest and chances of โ€œ Snow Days โ€œ & Power Outages so I do have a little set aside for that. Kind of a Bummer โ˜น๏ธ

    • @theaeroponictowerchannel says:

      Baby steps! Don’t let overwhelm stop you from doing something. I am working at a large scale but you can do a lot in a small space. Just start and it will grow naturally. My start is how I am where I am today. My first plant I grew…..lead to this.

  • @sheilar8263 says:

    I love, love when you are with your towers and youโ€™re harvesting vegetables! And I really like the way the peas grow on the towers, so pretty. You are a wealth of information thank you so much! I know my family in Burnsville say they had some rain back when they had the snow showers but itโ€™s funny, you could leave my aunts house and itโ€™s sunny and go a mile down the road and it pouring rain! And, she would never see a drop lol. The weather has been very weird, itโ€™s been very warm here in Mich also at this time.

    • @theaeroponictowerchannel says:

      Thank you! I’m glad Burnesville got rain. They need it too! It was so dusty there the last few times I went.

    I love your methods for gardening! Great job๐Ÿค 

  • @susandean5553 says:

    with ground being so saturated with the hurricane month ago i would want ground to dry out before any more water i think thats a blessing

    • @theaeroponictowerchannel says:

      The dust is toxic.

    • @pollysshore2539 says:

      Some areas did get months worth of rain in a short period so dry out was needed.

      It was also needed for homes/businesses.

      This is also the dry season in Southern Appalachia. Fall is fire season.

      The dust from dried out silt and mud does have toxic particles in it in some areas. Air quality control statements have noted this for weeks, and recommended that people try to avoid being out for extended periods when the wind is high. Thatโ€™s incredibly hard to do right now.

      PPE, pf course, has been recommended.

      Many of the dust particles are larger and harder for people to inhale. Others are smaller.

      Itโ€™s not going to be toxic in every single area, though. It depends on location. Some were covered in mud from headwaters from the tops of mountains with no residences or businesses above them.

      Peoples allergies are in overdrive right now, understandably so.

      Itโ€™s resulting in sinus infections, and the sinus infections are closely related to bronchitis. Itโ€™s easy for one to turn into bronchitis, and itโ€™s easy for bronchitis to turn into walking pneumonia or pneumonia.

      MMH has been putting out messages about this. Itโ€™s bronchitis/walking pneumonia season anyway but this is making matters worse.

    • @pollysshore2539 says:

      @@theaeroponictowerchannel I am so glad there was a light steady rain yesterday.

      That was desperately needed to knock down the dust and help clear reservoirs of drinking water.

      Several reservoirs flipped. The silt and sediment ended up on the top and the water is on the bottom.

      Local, state and federal agencies have been testing the water daily (and they have been doing soil testing for weeks too) and are using different methods to help the sediment settle faster.

      The water temps have cooled down due to winter approaching and this slows down the process of settling.

      The water situation has been especially grim in Buncombe but itโ€™s getting there, slowly but surely.

      Even 30% of peoples wells that were covered in flood water are testing positive for bacteria like E.coli. The EPA is sure several other private wells that were flooded are in the same shape but some people apparently think the Environmental Protection Agency is nefarious and out to harm them. They wonโ€™t let them test their wells.

      So, local health departments are handing out well decon kits to combat this.

  • @Simplyfarmhouse7 says:

    You are so correct about how much soil gardens can cost, the cost of soil and wood is outrages and you would have to put out a couple of acres to replace the grocery store. My small garden and food forest doesn’t provide much.

  • @Simplyfarmhouse7 says:

    IF your blessed with a WELL, add a HAND PUMP to your well, when the electric goes out you can pump out your water with the hand pump.

    • @theaeroponictowerchannel says:

      That is our next investment. They are very expensive. We have a 300ft deep well so it’s going to be several thousands to get it done.

  • @thinkforyourselfjohn3167 says:

    Thank you for this video. I’m keeping North Carolina in my prayers. Will be praying for rain it isn’t normal I agree. Will be praying you’re children feel better soon. So sorry you are having to go through all this. โคโค

  • @mickey62970 says:

    Well I live in PA and it is the same way very dry and temperatures are warm and it is cool at night some days are windy and cool it is a mixed bag. So we are the same deal. I do remember when we had Floods like you had We had flodding like that in 2011 from Hurricane Ivan. I had terrible SINUS issues from all the dust and dirt from the flooding. I wish your children speedy recovery….

  • @MarianHaworth says:

    You remind me of when I had a 300 head dairy—-(you work so hard)!!!!
    Just be sure that you MULCH VERY HEAVILY WITH PINE STRAW THAT IS DAMPENED, TO GIVE THE TREES A WARM BLANKET FROM THE FROST & FREEZING WEATHER ON YOUR MOUNTAINS—(PUT IT ON THICK, BECAUSE YOU CAN’T USE TOO MUCH, AND THE ROOTS OF THE TREES WILL LOVE YOU FOR IT & PRODUCE A LOT MORE BLOOMS & FRUIT IN THE SPRING–TO FALL 2025 GROWING SEASON FOR YOUโ™ฅ๏ธ

  • @BWell247 says:

    If you havenโ€™t already planned this, plant comfrey around your fruit trees.

  • @SandraTetrick-fv7mr says:
