Permaculture with Jack Spirko Part 11 - Understanding Zones
Today in the permaculture series we begin an examination of zone based design. The key take away from today is that zones are not hard and fast rules but more a design guideline that is extremely flexible and site situational. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ZhpbUSLz8U

Today we discuss something a lot of Keto folks tend to say that just isn’t true. That is you don’t need to count vegetable carbs or that some how carbs from some things are good vs. bad carbs.
Eight Myths about Carbs and Keto Living…
1. Some carbs are slow carbs and those are okay.
2. God gave us fruit so it can’t be bad for us.
3. Carbs from veggies or certain veggies don’t count.
4. 20 Carbs a day is 20 carbs a day no matter when consumed.

Full Write up with past videos on these are here - http://bit.ly/iotd-1-15-20
Please read this here fully or the linked article fully to avoid overpaying for one of the options.
These are what I consider the easy button for season extension, providing shade or protecting from persistent pests. Over the past month I have examined a ton of potential solutions for this need, I chose this one because it has a great bang for the buck, is extremely easy to use and will store nicely when not in use.
These come in a variety of options, first option is size you can get them in "standard" or "giant". I am going to recommend giant for most of you, because giant ain't all that big as yo can see in my video in the PS below. The smaller size is 18 vs. 24 inches wide and only 12 vs. 18 inches high. I consider that to low for most plants other than low growing greens, or may be just early protection for things like broccoli and cabbage. Unless you need to conserve space go with the big ones, again watch the video, they are not that big. Now we are down to covering type there are four options...
Poly - provides the most thermal gain - https://amzn.to/2u6J7wb
Fleece - will work for many of you in climates that are not that cold - https://amzn.to/3aaXiRy
Micromesh - some thermal gain but mostly for protection against persistent pests - https://amzn.to/2NvmZT9
Net - Provides some shade during really intense summer heat and heavy sun - https://amzn.to/2FT3waS (MAKE SURE TO READ THE PRICING HEADS UP ON THIS ONE BELOW)
Three big heads up on pricing.
One - If you just search for these on Amazon you'll get one of those listings with "available from these sellers" and pay over 50 bucks a pop for them. The links I provide have direct pricing and the lowest pricing available that I can find, if you can do better great but use my recommended listing as a base line.
`
Two - Pricing seems to bounce around on them a lot. I say in the video the fleece was less than the poly, well when I bought them on the 2nd of January I paid 25.98 for the fleece and 29.97 for the poly. Today the poly is 29.98 and the fleece option is 31.00. So if you want to buy more than a few it may be an item to price watch.
`
Three - On the shade net option. My link takes you to were this option is selling for 44 bucks. If you look to the top of the listing you will see Lower Priced Items to Consider. There you will see the same item for only 25 dollars, for some reason I can't link directly to that listing. But you can find it and save almost 20 bucks so do it.
