How to Freeze Vegetable Seeds for Storage

by

H/t reader squodgy:

I’m wondering, since the seed vault initiative at Svalbard, whether the “Never store seeds in a freezer’ brigade are disinformation trolls?”

– How to Freeze Vegetable Seeds for Storage:

Saving seed is a gardening tradition dating back to the days when seed was expensive and difficult to come by. Even in these days of relatively inexpensive seeds, some people prefer to save seeds from their best garden plants to replant the following year. Horticulturalist Gary Hickman, of the University of California Cooperative Extension, emphasizes that the most important considerations when storing seed is protecting seeds from moisture and from high temperature. He says seed that is dry and is protected from moisture can be safely stored in the deep freeze.

Choose to save the seed from your best, most healthy plants. Harvest vegetables such as tomatoes, beans, corn, peppers or squash when ripe. Allow greens such as lettuce to flower and go to seed.

Oppenheimer Ranch Project: Wild Edibles and Preparedness – The Inconvenient Truth -w- Jake Ryder and Kary Peterson (Video)

Knowing about wild edibles will be of vital importance.

Educate yourself.

I would NOT use totally useless iodized salt (as explained in the book ‘The Iodine Crisis’ by Lynne Farrow), but I would certainly take iodine.

How To Safely Store Drinking Water For Years (Video) – #Preppers, #Preparedness, #Survival, #Water

by

This method works.

*****

Watch this video on YouTube (Playback on other websites has been disabled by the video owner):

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pcE5x3X6TQ4

This video is about the water storage you do not have. In 200 households interviewed in preparation for this TNP video, less than 5% have a adequate water supply in storage. Adequate means to me at least a 30 day supply for everyone under your roof. It is a frequently missed preparedness commodity, critical to your family’s survival. Natural disasters, terrorist attacks, loss of electrical service, flooding, and war have destroyed previously reliable and safe to drink water supplies in our history. You need to store some, probably lots, independent external sources or filtering for your needs. With this in mind, the philosophy of this need is addressed in the foundation of this original Nutnfancy WROL video. Based on years of it working for our family, I then share how we approach water storage preparation. Additives, containers, filtration integration, water quality, quantities needed, and sourcing are all discussed and shown. I drink 7 year old water on camera to prove the point of our storage effectiveness. Please watch and heed the advice given as it may save your life one day.///////////////////////////////////////////Addtiives of stabilized oxygen are as follows [from www.liquid-stabilized-oxygen.com]: ¼ teaspoon (around 25 drops) per gallon of stored drinking water., 1 teaspoon per 5 gallons,1 ½ teaspoons per 7 gallons, 2 ½ teaspoons per 15 gallons of stored drinking water.////////////////////////////Other web resources: http://www.industrialcontainer.com, www.emergencyessentials.com, www.honeyvillefoods.com, www.survivalsolutions.com, also Industrial Container at 1845 S 5200 W Salt Lake City, UT 84104 (801) 972-1561 has excellent prices on bulk water containers.

…ALWAYS additionally boil or filter that water!!!

Use a water filter to make sure all harmful bacteria & protozoa are removed…

Antibiotics destroy your gut flora and are therefore very harmful to your immune system.

Brush your teeth with sand???

Baking soda and borax work extremely well (better than the best toothpaste out there.)!

And he describes one of many reasons why I’ve called this website “Infinite Unknown” and why I have NOT told everybody who I am and where I am, because I knew back then, that there will come a time when people will fight over a dry piece of bread in the streets.

And what he and many others did could really turn out to be a fatal mistake (hopefully not), but all of these guys have usually a secret well prepared safe place ‘somewhere’ and will disappear immediately after the SHTF.

Really Great Survival Knife: Cold Steel 3V SRK Fixed 6-Inch Blade Knife

by

Flashback.

– Cold Steel 3V SRK Fixed 6-Inch Blade Knife:

Description:

Survival & Rescue operations demand a versatile knife able to withstand the most extreme conditions. Simply put, the Cold Steel SRK (Survival Rescue Knife) was designed specifically with this in mind. A popular knife with Military and Tactical Law Enforcement Personnel, the SRK is the standard issue knife of the Navy SEALS for their BUDS – or Basic Underwater Demolition training – the SRK has proved its worth time and time again in the most demanding environments. Whatever the mission, we’re confident that the SRK is the knife for you!

Excellent survival knife, but if you want to use your knife only for hunting, then the Master Hunter is probably the best choice out there:

– Cold Steel 36CC 3V Master Hunter Fixed Blade Knife ($99.80)

http://www.coldsteel.com/3v-master-hunter.html ($199.99)

If this really is a 3V SRK, then this is a bargain (that is hard to believe, but then the Master Hunter also looks incredibly cheap. Am I missing something?):

@Amazon.com: Cold Steel 3V SRK Fixed 6-Inch Blade Knife ($128.05)

http://www.coldsteel.com/3v-srk.html ($254.99)

Sadly, unlike the Gerber LMF II ($78.21), the 3V SRK is not equipped with a pointed buttcap that is made of stainless steel, but I still prefer the 3V SRK.
