The purpose of this Growing and Seed Saving Book is to give an overview of the many types of survival garden plants and how to successfully grow them in a survival scenario. The plants described in this book are Heirloom varieties that have not been genetically modified, therefore may be grown in many different growing regions and environments. These types of plants are best suited for Survival gardens, as they will typically adapt to their environment year after year creating a strong growing crop specific to your area. 

The term “organic” is often confused with things such as “Non-GMO,” or “Heirloom” varieties. Most of the time, people believe that an “organic” seed is the appropriate type of seed for survival. This is not always the case, as “organic” seeds may have simply been harvested from a parent crop that was grown organically with no pesticides or chemical fertilizer. Contrary to popular belief, many Hybrid seeds are actually grown sold and marketed as "Organic" as well. For a true survival garden, you’ll want to find seeds that are at minimum “Heirloom” varieties. These seeds will produce crops with harvest-able seeds that will produce genetically similar crops every year. 

Many people become overwhelmed by the differences in growing each of these varieties and will quickly consider their gardens a failure and give up. In a survival situation, giving up could mean much more than a perishing vegetable garden. It is important to understand not only when to start your seeds, but in what temperature environment they will germinate and become a producing plant. This guide explains everything from germination temperature, to how long germination should take, the types of fertilizer (if any) to use, your days to harvest, how to harvest, and how to harvest the seeds of your plants.

Also included in this book, you will find a ton of information about growing herbs and their medicinal properties. Make your own natural medicine in the event of a survival situation.

Not the same bag
Size: One Size, Color: Dark Cappuccino, Size: One Size, Color: Dark Cappuccino
The item I received appears to be a smaller version of the bag without the small wallet that should be included. Do not buy it, and save yourself the trouble of having to return it.

Very Essential Pants!
Size: 0, Color: Mauve, Size: 0, Color: Mauve
I saw the mauve pants while browsing at a bargain price. I when I tried them on, I didn’t want to take them off. They looked great, fit perfectly and were so comfortable that I felt like I was wearing PJs. I ordered them in size 0. I am just shy of 5’ and thin, so finding casual but dressy slacks that fit is difficult. The material is soft and a perfect thickness to wear all year, not too heavy but provides enough warmth for cooler days. Being cotton with a tad of stretch keeps them from wrinkling a lot and looking fresh. In fact I loved them so much that I went back and bought every color available. Nice to not wear jeans dominate my choices. I took a picture showing all the colors which I bought. Oh, I love the style with the simple zipper in the front and welting on the legs. Also a feature is the fact that the waist hits my real waist and makes me look taller. Kudos on these VERY Essential pants.

Great buy!
Size: 4, Color: Ivory
Love these pants. They are multifaceted when it comes to being part of a casual look or dressier look! The fit is great and so far the zipper holds, it does not slide down throughout the day. They also wash and dry well! I purchased as many of them as I could before they showed out of stock! When you find something good, better stock up!

The perfect casual work pants!
Size: 16, Color: Camel
I love these pants! I used the size chart to order per my measurements and it worked out perfectly. I am 5’5” 180lbs and ordered size 16 in Camel. These are more on the casual side, but with the right styling they could be dressed up. They are soft with a brushed cotton feel. They have just enough stretch to add to comfort, but not so stretchy that they lose their shape or don’t retain initial structure. I wore them for a full work day the required a lot of walking, bending, and squatting. They are just a couple inches longer on me than I’d like, but most cropped/ankle style pants are. I didn’t notice prior to ordering they don’t have a button. No worries - the zipper stays up and makes for a flattering and different look. I plan to order again in a couple different colors. I’m shocked at how good the quality considering I only paid $14 for them.
