Small daily harvest on October 1st

Bill Mollison did not say: Gimme a million dollars and I will make it a paradise, he asked for a rock in the middle of the ocean :)

Anyway, I was referring to the described situation where frugal people amass millions in the bank. I am not sure if Gert cares at all about having those millions. Just that.

If Gert had a million dollars maybe she would devote that monies to help others learn about permaculture.

These days you can learn about permaculture for free like it has never been before.

In the same time, even small marketing campaigns for the FMCG have multimillion dollar budgets...

It is all true, but I  would ask one question though - if someone's dream is to live a life of Gert, are millions in the bank of any importance?

To save those millions, one must make money, and of course spend less than making, and avoid debt at all cost :)
However, in so-called Gertiness, making money is low in hierarchy of priorities, I think.

The new page is not only more modern, but also it is dramatically better at selling (but this is not what you are asking about).

Old one was good, but started to look as old fashioned sales page.

The new one looks like a modern landing page.
Great job in my opinion (not an expert though).

The image above... apologies, but no. It does not fit the new design at all, if that is what you are asking about.

For the new site, you need something between an architectural illustration, a modern magazine illustration and a beautifully simplified technical drawing, not something that is too playful for the subject and looks like children's-book illustration.

It is also not a professional advice, just my personal opinion based on being on the Internet almost since it exists.

I have tested it right now, all seems to be working fine.

Testing if it works...

Did you experience temperatures above about 27–30°C / 80–86°F?

High temperatures reduce pollen viability.
If flowers are exposed to prolonged heat, they may still produce pods, but the embryos fail to develop, leaving the pods empty or containing only tiny undeveloped peas.

Another frequent cause is water stress. Peas need consistent moisture during flowering and pod filling. If the soil dries out at this stage, the plant may abort seed development to conserve resources. The pods continue to grow, giving the impression that they should contain peas, but they remain empty.
