Summary

In this episode we discussed wicking beds for home food production in a way that improves ease of growing and virtually eliminates any conventional irrigation requirements. In reality wicking beds are the easy button especially in hot dry climates. While scale can be a limiting factor the production, reliability and reduced maintenance make them a fantastic choice for homestead production.

0:00.0	Hi folks, Jack Spirco here. Today you are listening to an episode of TSP Rewind.
0:07.1	Commercial-free versions of past episodes. Podcasts blasts from the pasts. I put these up when I can't do a show due to professional commitments or rare vacations. These podcasts will appear in standard iTunes, Stitcher, and other feeds, but will be titled TSP Rewind episodes and numbered accordingly.
0:24.5	And today we're rewinding back to May the 15th, 2018.
0:28.8	This was originally episode 2219, wicking beds for easy garden production.
0:34.1	Now, why are you getting an unexpected rewind on a Monday?
0:37.0	There's a couple
0:37.5	reasons one of them is I had to walk around a tree trimmer type guy this morning and
0:44.2	that took up quite a bit of my time I got quite a bit of work that I need done that I
0:48.0	simply don't have the time to get done and I want to make sure that everything was
0:52.5	properly struck so that set me back but the other thing is and this is big news there was a long time ago that I talked to make sure that everything was properly instruct. So that set me back.
0:58.2	But the other thing is, and this is big news, there was a long time ago that I talked about a book that never came to be called Laws of Life or Jack's Laws of Life. And some things happened in the
1:04.8	past week that enabled me to get that up and running and it is going to be live probably on May the 5th which is a Monday
1:13.2	and it's going to give me some time to do some marketing to the lead up of the drop date of
1:17.9	the book so they can make a big hit out of the gate and I'm going to have some ways coming
1:22.6	where you guys can help me do that the price on the print copy of the book, I think, is $17, and then the Kindle version will be $10,
1:32.8	and I really want to move some of the print copies of the books if I can.
1:37.2	It's not a profit thing.
1:38.9	I make the same amount of money.
1:40.6	I make about $6.50 a book, whether the Kindle copy or whether the print copy.
1:46.3	But print copies have a way of being handed to other people and things like that and becoming
1:51.3	part of a library. And the whole purpose of this book is really twofold. One is to help people,
1:57.4	and two is to spread the message of the survival podcast even though it's not a survival
