what would you grow

RE: what would you grow
Poly tunnels and green houses are also a bit misleading for the prepper/grower. They extend the climate seasons beyond what will be available "post event". Growing lush crops inside an artificial environment does not guarantee ones' skill in a guerilla garden hidden in the woods.

SHTF crops should have certain characteristics;

suitable for the climate
fast growing
hearty
low maintenance
high calorie/nutrition output
easily preserved without machinery or energy usage

But one can throw all this out the window if there is a good sized group in operation providing protection and a common labor pool. In that case one can put up the poly tunnels and grow any seed one has.

post SHTF stick to growing stuff "in season", trying to emulate what is grown abroad and shipped half way across the globe pre event is going to be a no brainer.
Some people that prefer to be alone arent anti-social they just have no time for drama, stupidity and false people.
