Thank you

Hey all! I'm an apartment homesteader in Lakewood, WA — container gardening, food preservation, and making self-sufficiency work in about 600 sq ft. Wanted to share two things that might be useful to fellow small-space growers.
I'm a brand ambassador for Fast Growing Trees and recently added a Blue Java banana tree to my container garden lineup, alongside a Meyer lemon, rosemary, strawberries, and an African violet. It's been a fun one to document since bananas aren't the first thing people think of for apartment growing, but they do surprisingly well in containers if you've got the light for it. If anyone's curious about container fruit trees, happy to talk about how it's going. Use code FGTHUSTLENJARS20 if you want to check out their tree selection.
I also run a small print-on-demand shop through Fourthwall geared toward homesteaders — apparel, mugs, stickers, candles, that kind of thing, themed around the apartment-homestead/self-sufficiency mindset. https://hustle-n-jars-shop.fourthwall.com/
Would love to hear what other small-space/container growers here are working with! https://ambassadors.fast-growing-trees.com/FGTHUSTLENJARS20

Thank you!

I have a merch store geared towards Homesteaders, and am an ambassador for Fast Growing Trees, would those 2 work here for being safe to advertise?

Find a plot of land WAY far away from people, and build a wood cabin and off grid. Grow as much food as I could. Preserve it.

Ended up having to replant the onions. My plant just wasn't viable enough to transplant. So I planted 2 more seeds. Now we wait. (They're in the clear cups). 1 seed each.

Apartment dweller here. I think I take the cake. 🎂 I am growing in containers and bags. Everything but my onions are thriving! My potatoes are even growing buds! This is my first time growing these specific veggies, (onions, potatoes and tomatoes & peppers) but everything is coming up good so far. 🤷‍♀️If you're growing onions, I highly suggest putting it in a bag, and unroll the bag down, it doesn't seem to do well in a bucket. 🤦‍♀️ (Yes, all my plants are south facing). Make sure the buckets you use for everything else are food grade. You don't want to use just any ole bucket. I use the orange ones from Home Depot and the blue ones from Lowe's. They work great. Yes I am growing them inside, because of the chemtrails & I don't want my neighbors to take them. This plan has worked for me so far. & Yes, they're all organic.

Oh I would LOVE to do this!!! If they have one in WA state, even better!
