Nano-solar — This is a company that as the potential to change the world. It has developed proprietary technology that makes it possible to simply roll-print solar cells that require only 1/100th as thick an absorber as a silicon-wafer cell (yet deliver similar performance and durability). It has so far raised over $1Bn US and is building a factory in the US, Germany and Wales. Their technology dramatically lowers the process cost and complexity involved in the production of thin-film solar cells and makes it possible to scale production very rapidly. The result sets the standard for the technology and products that make it possible to put A Solar Panel on Every Building™. Nanosolar is on track to make solar electricity: i. cost-efficient for ubiquitous deployment ii. mass-produced on a global scale iii. available in many versatile forms.

Did it again, another garden video, this is the last one for at least a month to see the results. Last minute, I changed my mind and ripped out LAST YEARS tomato plants, which I just cut down during the winter, and let grow back. I saved some good shoots to root in solution, called pixies. The critters ate my Kale seedlings, they didnt even have a chance. No problem, doesnt do well in FL heat, will redo that one inside, and outside in the fall. As I keep saying I want to try everything. Beets, Collards, Parsley, Herbs, Brussels Sprouts, Kale, Radish, Flowers, Cabbage, Lettuce, Spinach, Ferns, Carrots, Mustard, Turnips, can do well with mottled shade, or 4-6 hours of sun. Note: FL old time gardeners are saying tomatoes do well with mottled shade, in the summer, the sun is too strong. One lady told me her tomatoes are on her shaded screened in porch and doing good! So, I am applying that principle. Natural bug recipe: (just found this after I ripped my blighty tomato plants out, they were from last year anyway – started some healthly shoots in water inside, called pixies) 1-2 tsp dishwashing liquid, (or dr bronners Castile soap works good, use 1 tsp, it’s strong, remember it has some oil in it, which can provoke a sunburn effect, use at sunset. I am going to try the peppermint soap – Ivory is good too. Do not use soap with degreasing in it.) 1 quart of water 1 tsp baking soda (add if you got mildew or blight) Or 6-8 garlic cloves finely chopped 1 tbs mineral oil 1 pint …

Kombucha Shampoo – Dorothy from taichibozeman.com shows how to make Kombucha Shampoo, or your own herbal tea combination: 1 dark-colored bottle to keep heat out of the essential oils. It will destroy their effectiveness. SHAMPOO (For 8 oz.) Mix equal parts of liquid castile soap to equal parts of an herbal infusion. Add I drop each of Rosemary and Lavender EO, coconut essential oil, or essentil oil of choice Used alone or combine herbs for preference and strength of desired infusion, depending on your needs: I usually choose 2-3 herbs using 1 tbl. each. You prepare an infusion same as you’d do for tea, but steeping the herbs longer,15+ mins. To extract the healing properties of the herbs, I leave mine to infuse for several hours, tho you don’t have to. Wait till infusion is cooled before mixing. You don’t want to expose the EO’s to heat and destroy it’s benefits and potency. I use Kombucha tea, which has steeped in the sun for 12 hours or more. ROSEMARY LAVENDER SAGE NETTLES Add 1 tbl. vegetable glycerin Gently mix and pour into bottle. Then refrigerate. HAIR RINSE FOR OILY HAIR (For 8 oz.) Mix I part Apple Cider Vinegar or Kombucha to 3 parts Herbal Infusion or plain water, using the same herbs as the shampoo. Add 1-3 drops each of Rosemary and Lavender Essential Oil Shake well and refrigerate. After applying, I don’t rinse it out. Others may instruct you to do so, but leaving the rinse in works well for me. The vinegar smell will quickly dissipate. ALWAYS SHAKE THESE …
