Goldman Sachs
And who is the head of the ECB (EU Central Bank)- Mario Draghi"Mario Draghi, formerly vice chairman and managing director of Goldman Sachs International. As incoming head of the European Central Bank, Draghi has been responsible for pouring €1 trillion of easy money into a tottering European banking system. You can call that a rescue operation if you like — but what exactly is being rescued? The collapsing banks and irresponsible governments most responsible for the current crisis. The firms and institutions who form Goldman’s crucial European client base, in fact."http://planetponzi.com/blog/goldman-friends

I reported on "Lithium dosing" experiments back in March 2015 on Transpicuous News- and I said that this is NOTICE. And here we are 6 months later with reports of Lithium being used in Chemtrails- not just in Oregon either..... I can guarantee that this new chemtrail cocktail is being use all over the place.

WHOA!!!! Ok my friends, this is now crossing over into various areas that I have been researching for years, ie: the Endocrine System- which includes :
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thyroid-stimulating_hormone
When a chemical is introduced that effects negatively the Endocrine System- that produces your bodys hormones- you are talking about your entire system of health being effected. This is no laughing matter. This is about as serious as serious gets.
What most people dont know is that you have a secondary Endocrine System: Your SKIN. Your skin is a vital transport and transference system that both absorbs and excretes and transmits. Your skin absorbs EVERYTHING it comes in contact with- which is why I am continually expressing to people the importance of KNOWing whats in your skin care, soaps, detergents etc- because your skin absorbs the toxic chemicals. Your skin also absorbs something that is vastly important:
SUNLIGHT
And uses that Sunlight to produce Vitamin D. What is Vitamin D? Beyond what you have been told by various Health sites, there is a more important piece of the Vitamin D puzzle: Vitamin D is a Hormone- it is the day time hormone that balances with the night time hormone: Melatonin. Which is directly linked to the Pineal Gland and the entire Endocrine system.
On Monday nights One People Roundtable Discussion, Lisa and I briefly discussed the aspect of chemtrails are also a PHYSICAL barrier to the sky. Not just blocking our view OUTWARDS, but also Blocking vital Sunlight from getting through the veil of milky white chemicals. This is a very important aspect to understand, as right now the entire world is experiencing a massive Vitamin D deficiency problem. Why is that? Well beyond the continuous propaganda telling the world that Sunlight causes Cancer (it doesnt), and brainwashing people to cover their skin with toxic chemicals to block out sun exposure.... its also because the chemtrails are blocking a massive amount of positive sunlight from reaching us. So we have massive vitamin D deficiencies, which CAUSES skin cancer, lowers your immune system and cripples our endocrine system from producing the hormones we need in balance. Add to the physical sun screen, the addition of Aluminum to chemtrails- which causes know toxicity and is directly responsible in Alzheimers and Parkinsons .... and also over whelms yet another important brain function- Neuromelanin, which is now directly linked to both Alzheimers and Parkinsons disease. Neuromelanin is directly linked to the pineal and pituitary glands, and to Melanin and Melatonin- and hence, Vitamin D..... which again brings us right back to the Sun.
Going back to Lithium and its symptoms, youll also notice a direct reflection between those and another infamous "disease": Morgellons.

Lithium: Suppressing "Manic-Depressive" Overwhelm
and The Dangers of this Toxic Heavy Metal Substance
http://www.sntp.net/drugs/lithium_breggin.htm
In a Nutshell: Lithium is a mind numbing drug that literally makes people not give a shit about anything. Your house could be burning down around you, and you wouldnt even care....
....Sound familiar? Kind of like society as a whole right now?
Lithium isnt a drug that prescribed willynilly..... So why is it in our sky and water?
People who follow their lithium regime religiously are, in general, not likely to be the people who are chaotic, impulsive, desperate and most likely to commit suicide. In fact, one study showed just this. People who were highly compliant with lithium had a five times lower risk of suicidal acts than those who were judged to be ‘poorly adherent’ with it. Secondly, because even small overdoses of lithium can produce dangerously toxic blood levels, people who are thought to be at a high risk of committing suicide are usually not prescribed it. If they are, it is with a strong warning about the toxicity of the drug, and close monitoring by mental health service staff – both of which may, in themselves, help to stabilise someone regardless of the lithium.
More recent cohort studies showing reduced suicide and mortality in people on lithium are likely to be what we call ‘confounded’ by these same issues. People who show suicidal tendencies are less likely to be given lithium and the same applies to people with medical conditions. Not only does lithium cause direct damage to organs like the kidneys and thyroid, it interacts with many drugs commonly prescribed for physical health problems. These interactions can lead to dangerously raised lithium levels. Hence any decent clinician is naturally cautious about starting lithium in anyone who is physically sick or taking other sorts of medication.https://www.madinamerica.com/2015/07/lithium-and-suicide-what-does-the-evidence-show/
I have found this report on Natural News that was based on the original article out of Scotland:
Scientists suggest government should add psych meds to public drinking water
The original article cited a study done in Japan, based higher than normal amounts of lithium in one citys water. But this isnt just Japan that has done this "study":
This weeks New York Times Magazine draws attention to an article in The British Journal of Psychiatry that has been the talk of bioethical circles since May, when researchers at Japans Oita University reported that communities with increased levels of lithium in their drinking water suffered a significantly lower incidence of suicide. The Japanese data confirmed a previous study of drinking water in Texas that found a decreased incidence of both suicide and violent crime in counties with higher-than-average amounts of naturally-occurring lithium in the water. If these protective benefits are replicated -- and no equally deleterious health effects of such low-dose exposures are discovered -- public health authorities may soon confront the question of whether it is ethical to supplement all public water supplies with lithium.
The pioneering American psychiatrist Peter Kramer, best known for his work Listening to Prozac, first raised such a possibility at a conference in Germany earlier this year. Whether such a policy is justifiable will depend upon further study of risks and benefits. What is clear is that our society may soon stand on the brink of a public health revolution in which pharmaceuticals will be added directly to the water supply in order to further the common good. ....
....Lithium may actually be the tip of the fortification iceberg. The cholesterol-lowering agents known as statins might also be good candidates for inclusion in the water supply, particularly if data confirms that they increase life-expectancy in otherwise health individuals and if those susceptible to rare side-effects -- such as muscle breakdown -- could be identified in advance. The social and economic costs of supplying free bottled water to pregnant women, young children and potential side-effect victims might prove vastly lower than those of persuading all other adults to take a daily statin pill. Similarly, fortifying water with thiamine might prevent dementia in alcoholics.

Ive higlighted the symptoms my family and I have experiences in January and again last month:
Symptoms Lithium toxicity
ACUTE TOXICITY
After taking too much lithium you will have symptoms such as:
CHRONIC TOXICITY
You will likely not have any gastrointestinal symptoms. Symptoms that may occur include:
You will likely get some gastrointestinal symptoms and many of the severe nervous system symptoms listed above.
After taking too much lithium you will have symptoms such as:
- Diarrhea
- Dizziness
- Nausea
- Stomach pains
- Vomiting
- Weakness
- Coma (decreased level of consciousness, lack of responsiveness)
- Hand tremors
- Incoordination of arms and legs (ataxia)
- Muscle twitches
- Seizures
- Slurred speech
- Uncontrollable eye movement (nystagmus)
CHRONIC TOXICITY
You will likely not have any gastrointestinal symptoms. Symptoms that may occur include:
- Increased reflexes
- Slurred speech
- Tremors
- Kidney failure
- Memory problems
- Movement disorders
- Problems keeping salts in your body
- Psychosis (thought disturbance, unpredictable behavior)
You will likely get some gastrointestinal symptoms and many of the severe nervous system symptoms listed above.
https://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/002667.htm
Systemic effects
Renal toxicity is common with chronic lithium therapy, with nephrogenic diabetes insipidus being the most severe manifestation. Lithium inhibits the action of antidiuretic hormone (ADH) on the distal renal tubule, impairing sodium and water reabsorption. Other manifestations of lithium toxicity on the kidney include renal tubular acidosis, chronic tubulointerstitial nephritis, and nephrotic syndrome.
The most common endocrine disorder secondary to chronic toxicity is hypothyroidism. Lithium is taken up avidly by thyroid cells and blocks thyroid hormone release from thyroglobulin, which inhibits adenylate cyclase and prevents thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) from activating thyroid cells via the TSH receptor. It may also affect thyroid hormone synthesis. Myxedema coma has been reported as a complication of toxicity.
Acute exposure to lithium can cause leukocytosis, whereas chronic exposure can produce aplastic anemia.
Patients who are on long-term lithium therapy can develop localized edema, dermatitis, and skin ulcers.

WHOA!!!! Ok my friends, this is now crossing over into various areas that I have been researching for years, ie: the Endocrine System- which includes :
The major endocrine glands include the pineal gland, pituitary gland, pancreas, ovaries, testes, thyroid gland, parathyroid gland, hypothalamus, gastrointestinal tract and adrenal glands.

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3051846/Skin as an Neuro-Endocrine Organ
More than ten years ago a comprehensive model of the skin acting as neuro-endocrine organ has been proposed.1 Although the concept is still evolving,1–7 it relies on the skin capacity to communicate with the central system and to regulate global homeostasis through local production and/or systemic release of classical hormones, neuropeptides, neurotransmitters and biological regulators (Fig. 1).1 The skin is not only a classical source of vitamin D8 but also a place of synthesis and metabolism of several neuropeptides including elements of hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA),1,9–12 and hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid (HPT),13–16 axes. Skin cells also possess fully functional serotonin- and melatoninergic systems17–22 and express steroidogenic activity.1,12 The presence of several neuropeptides and other biologically active compounds in the skin is due to both their local synthesis and active transport from blood or release form nerves endings or migrating immune cells.1–3,23 The newly synthesized neuropeptides and hormones have predominantly local activity in paracrine or autocrine fashion, but there is a growing evidence that those regulatory substances once produced by skin can diffuse to the blood or activate local nerve endings within the dermis thus they may influence central organs including brain.1,3 ...
...Melatonin is a major pineal hormone with activity of a neurotransmitter, cytokine, antioxidant and global regulator of circadian clock.17,20 It synthesis is not restricted to pineal gland, but was detected in several organs including skin, retinal pigment epithelial cells, brain, Harderian gland, ciliary body, lens, retina, airway epithelium, bone marrow, thymus, immune cells, gonads, placenta, gastro-intestinal tract and skin.17,18,82–84 The skin possesses fully functional biochemical machinery for melatonin synthesis....Recent studies showed importance and molecular mechanism of activity of other hormones and in regulation of skin physiology including novel vitamin D derivatives
On Monday nights One People Roundtable Discussion, Lisa and I briefly discussed the aspect of chemtrails are also a PHYSICAL barrier to the sky. Not just blocking our view OUTWARDS, but also Blocking vital Sunlight from getting through the veil of milky white chemicals. This is a very important aspect to understand, as right now the entire world is experiencing a massive Vitamin D deficiency problem. Why is that?

Lithium Being Used In Airborne Spraying Over Oregon

Lithium and the Experiment over Oregon
By: Ann Fillmore, PhD
In January 2015, I began receiving reports by email, telephone and over Facebook of very specific symptoms from very specific locations under very specific spraying activity throughout Oregon. From my experience as a counselor, having had to do an internship for drug rehabilitation many long years ago, I instantly recognized that the symptoms were being caused, almost certainly, by lithium intake. How could so many people be suddenly dosed up on lithium? And then it hit here in Reedsport, a tiny town on the central coast of Oregon. I had no more doubt. I posted my findings on the various FB pages.In direct response to these posts, the first letter from the whistle blower arrived on January 30, 2015. I at first thought it was another letter of complaint from someone who thought I had the solution to the horrors of Geoengineering. Instead, the letter is the real thing.
For six months, I respected the danger this person, who uses the pseudonym Locke, was putting himself in and I was very discreet about who saw the letter. And I was very discreet in putting messages on the FB sites to confirm to Locke that I was working on his message. I used the letter as a teaching tool and it was very effective. Either readers were completely convinced of what is happening in Oregon or they went into horrified denial. The Geoengineering activists to whom I sent the letter almost always dismissed it, ignored it or immediately responded that they couldn’t do anything about it. This was very disappointing until I realized that the atrocity of Geoengineering, and these experiments, is on such a vast scale that each of us is struggling to fight in our own corner with very little mutual support.

A second letter has surfaced, which I will quote from. It was received by HH in Medford around the first of March. Locke expresses his disappointment that the activists he had contacted never responded. Having had essentially the same non-response, I understand his frustration. So, after much research to back up Locke’s disclosures, here is the pertinent information from the whistle blower. His private information will remain private.
We can deduce from his excellent use of English and from his job description, that he is well educated in a science field, probably a DSc or PhD, he is most likely in his late 30’s or early 40’s, and is equally at home outdoors as in a lab.

Excerpt from Locke’s first letter:
“For example, I could have warned thousands of people of the ongoing (as of January 27th) spraying to manufacture air stagnation in the Rogue and Umpqua Valleys, as well as much of the Oregon Coast south of Florence. The artificially induced period of air stagnation is part of a larger experiment testing the efficacy of psychoactive chemical dispersal from high altitudes. Currently, spraying is most intense along the coast itself and above inland valleys. The stagnant air currents in the region allow for more direct application of psychoactive agents to test populations. I have little formal contact with the chemistry department, but to my knowledge, Lithium is the primary substance being dispersed in the aforementioned experiment. Given the psychoactive/social nature of the ongoing tests, my department is playing a secondary role collecting water and soil samples. The Sociological Research Division however, has operatives throughout the region gathering a massive amount of data regarding the test population’s behavioral traits, like consumer habits, political engagement levels, and awareness of geoengineering programs. I would urge you to inform your friends and peers of this fact, as avoiding observation by refusing to take surveys and engaging in similar actions that can disrupt this sordid research. “Excerpt from Locke’s second letter:
“These dispersal plumes contain lithium and other psychoactive compounds. The areas targeted as of March 1st are inland valleys and coastal towns south of

How to save time and money when starting tomato plants for your garden
By Easy
easy@easygrowsit.com
February 24nd, 2013
If you, like many of us, grow lots of tomato plants for your garden every year, you start them from seed. Starting from seed can be tedious, time consuming and sometimes quite frustrating. You have to plan ahead so your little crop is ready to plant when the time is right. This usually means starting your seeds from 6-8 weeks before it’s time to plant them in the garden.
To start our seeds, some of us use 10? x 20? trays with cells for each seed. Others use anything from solo cups to microwave dishes from their last frozen dinner. It doesn’t matter what you grow them in, you’ll need to make sure they always get the proper amount of water, light and warmth to start them right. It requires a certain amount of attention at this stage and mistakes can set you back to the point of having to start over. Forget to water your little tomato plants and you could end up with plants that are stunted or dead and you could have to start all over.
At some point in the process, you’ll need to transplant the little seedlings into larger containers at least once. Depending on how large you want them at planting time, maybe twice. As I said above, it can get a little tedious and time consuming, especially if you’re doing the same with other plants like peppers at the same time.
The obvious alternative to growing tomato plants from seeds is to go buy small plants from a local nursery or home improvement store just before you need to put them out in the garden. Depending on how many plants you need, it can be quite expensive. If I remember correctly, last year the price of small tomato plants at home improvement stores were about US$3.50 each in 4 inch pots. If you bought a dozen plants, you were looking at around $42 plus tax. How many tomatoes would it take to make up for a $42 investment? That’s assuming all your plants survived to produce tomatoes.
So, starting tomatoes from $1.50 worth of seeds is easily more economical although much more risky and difficult. Buying plants somewhere is much less risky but much more expensive. What if I told you that you could have the benefits of both choices without the huge monetary outlay and without having to monitor dozens of baby plants from seed? Would that be something that might interest you? If it is, please read on.
For those of you that do not know much about tomatoes and tomato plants, let me give you a little background information before I move on. Tomatoes are actually a fruit, not a vegetable. I, like many, was not aware of this fact for quite some time and I was quite surprised to hear that. Tomato plants are actually vines, unlike, say, a bell pepper plant, which is technically a tree.
Vines are interesting plants. Some if not most vines (I don’t claim to be a vine expert or any kind of expert for that matter) will sprout roots when buried in soil. More roots means more water and nutrients for the plant as well as having a stronger base in the ground to support the plant. You can actually plant a tomato plant, with proper preparation, horizontally in a trench leaving just the very top of the tomato plant sticking out of the ground. It will develop many more roots than with the typical planting method and it will be much more strongly rooted in the ground as well. This is called the trench planting method. If you’d like to see exactly how this works, here’s a link to a You Tube video my friend Bobby (Mhpgardener on You Tube) did showing how it’s done…Planting Tomatoes – A Quick Tip
Tomatoes grow new baby plants at the intersection where a branch and the main stem meets. This intersection is typically called a crotch and the new baby plant that develops there is usually called a sucker. I am sure there is probably a more scientific name but gardeners usually call it a sucker because it takes energy away from the main plant to grow this new baby plant. Remember, a tomato plant is a vine and vines like to spread all over. Some tomato growers remove these suckers and others like to leave them on. I’ll leave that subject for another article.
At this point, you might be saying to yourself, “This is all very interesting and good but what does all this have to do with how I get a bunch of tomato plants to plant in my garden?” I appreciate your patience dear reader and now that I have explained enough background information, let’s get to the point.
Suckers, as I said, are baby tomato plants. It’s like a another tomato plant growing out of the main tomato plant, which is called the mother plant. If you would snip off a decent sized sucker (six inches long or longer with a few full sets of leaves) from the mother plant and stick the bottom of the sucker in water, in a matter of three days to a couple of weeks, depending on the variety of tomato plant, you should see roots develop under and at the water line. Once they start to develop roots, those roots will grow at a very rapid rate. This is called “rooting” a plant. It’s also called “cloning”.
After the roots get a few inches long (don’t let them get too out of hand) you can transplant the new tomato plant into soil and it will grow like any other tomato plant in soil. Now, the really amazing as well as useful part of this whole process is that not only does the new sucker derived plant give you a whole new plant to grow, it doesn’t know it’s a new plant. To it, it’s a fully developed tomato plant, not a 6 week old baby plant that grew from seed and is still maturing. If the mother plant is three months old, the sucker is just as mature, just smaller. It’s ready to put on flowers and start bearing fruit right away unlike it’s six week old, grown from seed counterpart.
So now, let’s put it all together. If you needed a dozen or so tomato plants, instead of planting twelve seeds 6-8 weeks ahead of time, you could grow one or two mother plants a month or two earlier than that so they have suckers a few weeks before you needed plants to put in the garden. Not only will the sucker derived plants be more mature and ready to start producing right away, you’d be using less seeds and can still get more suckers later from the mother plant in case something terrible happens to your garden such as hail storm. The mother plant will continue to keep making suckers for you in case you need them.
I almost forgot! There’s another reason to generate plants this way. Not only will the mother plant give you lots of baby plants, chances are, depending on when you started your mother plant, it will also give you tomatoes as well by the time you start setting your new plants out in the garden.

Voltset Viewing And Recording Meter Data On Your Smartphone
| 0 komentar |Label: and, Aquaponics, data, meter, on, recording, smartphone, viewing, voltset, your
It has always seemed to me that it would be a good idea for engineers and technicians to use their smartphone to view and record data from a meter.
Apparently the people involved with the Voltset Kickstarter campaign agree with me. Voltset is a module that plugs into a smartphone via a USB connection and turns the phone into a smart multimeter. The Kickstarter campaign has met its initial funding goal, so well find out if the Voltset team can deliver on their useful looking 21st century tool for the microcontroller enthusiast. If you want to get the deluxe model, the less-expensive early bird pledges are all gone, but you can still get the Voltset Pro for $139. The campaign has 13 more days to run.
An article titled "Voltset - Intelligent Multimeter for your smartphone" on Engineering.com recently described the device this way:
You should really consider watching the video to understand the advantages of the Voltset versus just using a standard multimeter. Im sure a couple of the Humboldt Makers would love to have the Voltset. I might just have to link Lonny and Gabe to this post just to see if they like the concept enough to spring for $139, plus $15 shipping.
My guess is that there will be a lot more devices like the Voltset over the next few years. Doing electronics, physics, chemistry and engineering labs in college with tools like the Voltset is going to have a radically improved data gathering approach compared to twenty years ago, or even compared to five years ago. One useful aspect of this tool might be the opportunity to revise the experiment procedure, while youre in the middle of the experiment, based on self-charting of the data being gathered. It might be immediately obvious that gathering data at two higher temperatures will give useful information, or that running the experiment again at a lower pressure will result in the best yield for a batch process.
Another aspect of the Voltset I like is the team that designed and is producing it. It appears to be a truly global diverse distributed team that would be challenging to work on and challenging to manage, but if you get the right group of people together, it would be an awesome and interesting way to collaborate. If interested in this aspect of the project, check out their Kickstarter page and go down toward the bottom to see who all is on the team.
Microcontroller users, open source hardware designers, biohackers, citizen scientists -- everyone who gathers data that can be measured by a meter is going to want a Voltset or its close cousin.

"The most interesting aspect of the Voltset for me was the identification tools. In the Kickstarter video a car battery is being measured, and Voltset recognizes that its measuring a vehicle and gives the user standard measurements for car batteries. A second demonstration in the video shows an electrical outlet being measured with the same results. Several equations are built into the meter allowing makers to take data and have information beyond what is being measured. A data logging feature keeps the information to give users a history of their project."

Light Up Your Life With MCU Controlled RGB LEDs
| 0 komentar |Label: Aquaponics, controlled, leds, life, light, mcu, rgb, up, with, your
This evening I saw a recent EE Times article about using Arduinos to control RGB LEDs (red, green, blue light emitting diodes).
One of the first things that many people learn how to control with a microcontroller is an LED. It seemed like it would be good to learn a little more about LEDs, so I read the EE Times article. All I know about so far about LEDs and microcontrollers is how to light them up and that I should make sure to have an adequate pull-up resistor so I dont burn out the LED by putting too much current through it. I think. (For more on pull-up and pull-down resistors, see the Wikipedia entry or the article about the topic on ResistorGuide.com.)
The title of the EE Times article was a bit misleading because it specifies an LED lighting project, but that project was not mentioned again until the last paragraph of the article.
While the article was disappointing in terms of living up to its title, it did spur me to ask Google to fetch some information based on the keyword combo Arduino RGB LED. Google nicely did as requested, and it turns out there are a number of tutorials on how to control RGB LEDs with an Arduino. Likely lots of advanced tricks with RGB LEDs or interesting RGB LED projects could be found by reading through more of the search result for the above keyword combination, or by adding a fourth search term such as projects.
A couple RGB LED tutorials come from sources familiar to those who read a lot about Arduinos and microcontrollers. There are an Instructables tutorial and an Adafruit tutorial. The first page of search results also gave me a tutorial from new resource, OscarLiang.net. Havent had time yet to check out OscarLiang, but the RGB LED tutorial looked fairly detailed. RGB LEDs have a distinctive appearance -- the RGBs have four leads instead of the two found on regular LEDs. That may make it a little bit interesting to plug into a breadboard!
If Jeremy Blum doesnt cover RGB LEDs in his first six Arduino Basics video tutorials, Ill work through a couple of the tutorials I found today to learn more about using this type of LED.
In addition to the tutorials, the first page of results did have a couple projects. One was a straightforward Make: Project -- an RGB LED Lamp. Getting a little fancier was a Make: Project titled "Control RGB LEDs with this Android-Arduino Combo-Circuit." Controlling the LEDs with an Android would be kind of fun since I havent run into opportunities to combine Android and Arduinos for a microcontroller project yet. Ill have to see if someone else in the Humboldt Microcontrollers Group wants to work with me on that one. Ill have to research the project and find out how much the components for that cost.
Lastly, a pretty cool Arduino-controlled RGB LED project is the Wormhole Actualization Machine shown on BoingBoing (and other websites) in late May. This was an extremely complex project, at least to me, but the end result was really cool. You have to watch the video for this essentially useless but interesting device. Ill bet kids would love playing with it. It would be an interesting project to build, but a person would need to have a bit of extra cash and a strong desire to make what is essentially an interactive art project, or at least thats what it seems like to me. It could also be a movie prop, but if you made the Wormhole Actualization Machine for that reason, then youre going to also need to make a movie to go with the WAM. You make the WAM and the movie -- Ill make the popcorn...

Getting more from your broccoli a tasty brassica salad

Harvesting broccoli to get more from your plants..
Broccoli would have to be one of my favourite plants to grow.. It starts off with a nice tidy little head of green goodness only to go onto providing you with countless meals of side shoots for months to come.. We were concerned that we didnt plant enough broccoli for the season but we have started to be flooded with side shoots from a few of the plants..
We now have the second crop starting to produce as well so I think we will be sorted for broccoli until the start of Summer now at this rate :) Not sure what we will be doing with the punnet of seedlings I have to plant out yet..
Brassica salad...
We have been making up brassica salads for quite a while now & they have become a side dish here that is loved by all.. Thought I would post the recipe here even though a similar version has been posted elsewhere before.. It is one of those salads that gets whatever is growing out the back tossed into it.. The only ring-in veggie for this one was the capsicum/bell pepper,the rest came from the garden or aquaponics..
Broccoli & Cauliflower Salad..
The left overs from this dish were supposed to be lunch today but decided that they would be better used as a side for tonight meal.. Will just be adding a few extra broccoli side shoots to boost it out a bit..
Hope you enjoy it if you give it a whirl..
For more regular updates, pictures from the patch & other happenings come visit us on our Bits out the back Face Book page..
