I agree the food is not the same as when I was a kid.

If you can, grow your own food using Heirloom seeds with organic methods and never look back.

Grow tomatoes in black rich humus soil with addition of ripe cow shit and you will again sense taste of a past times... this tomatoes have everything,they are not watery,they have sweetnes,smell,vitamins,minera ls,etc...


friend here growed on balcony in 25 liter plastic buckets,mixed sheep manure and good black soil and tomatoes was turbo great.. sweet,sour,full of taste.. like those ones that we remember from before..

while on market if its not season its hard to found good merchendise..

I actually planted 2 tomatoes plants in the mountain forest last year beside one of my guerilla patches.

I was hoping to have tomatoes grown on land that is about as natural as you can get.

Sadly, I didn't protect them too well and the slugs had a nice feast.

This year I try again and watch out you slugs as I got you number now.

Those food that have good taste is growed in active soil,where beneficial microlife
is in aboundance,that is a main reason that food will taste heavenly...

same rule is for weed...alive soils give better tasting,smelling product than hydro,
soiless,aero,and cocos..

soilmixes are best whithouth aerators.. black chernozyom,red soils,vulcanic soils,
terra pretta type of soils that are closest to black chernozyom.. this kind of mediums
give best product out.. add just wormcastings and some ripe manure like cow,horse,
sheeps.. some mineral part thru granite dust,agro lime,zeolite.. and just add water...

fruits this kind growed cant be bad and they are healthy in same way as our grandfathers
eated,full of nutrients...

but today no much folks grow this way or have chance to grow anything,most of them
in city,living in beton jungle where there is no space for crops or gardening..
and off course most eat industrial food that produces illnesses and lacks in nutes
that our body desperatly needs..

Than there is now those GMO and i reading those fruits and veggies have even less
of vitamins,minerals,nutrients overall..

I think raised beds are the way to go.I think you can control the soil best that way cause there's probably all kinds of bad stuff in the ground sapping nutrients instead of adding them

So yeah, it's the carrot's fault.

Great point so much easier to manage.And way more fun.

The high brix thread here and on other forums is really interesting in regards to all this.

And thanks for posting this topic Robrites!

Just think if we could all obtain good tasting veggies conveniently how much more we would preference them over sheight.
