After making lots of hot sauce, giving tons of them away, drying, grinding, fermenting, and smoking... we still have more hot peppers. So what do we do? Let's turn them into compost, via feeding them all to the chickens! Your abundant harvests don't have to be a waste. They can simply be recycled into soil, or into eggs and meat. Don't feel guilty - just recycle! The plants I grew came from a few seeds that cost pennies. Then we got lots and lots of produce! The season is over and it's time to move on, so composting with chickens is the way to go. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NnTztOE8vyY

Today I share how to germinate coffee beans. Coffee plants for sale: http://amzn.to/2oqkdju This is the type of heat mat I have used: http://amzn.to/2o7oIDw My booklet on growing caffeine: http://amzn.to/2o7p25c You really need to have fresh seeds or you won't have luck growing coffee. I ended up buying my own coffee tree from a rare plant nursery so I would have a source of fresh seeds. When I tried to buy coffee seeds through the mail I was disappointed and have 0% germination. You might have luck with some fresh green coffee beans but I can't say. It's probably worth trying, but the germination rate really does deteriorate on coffee beans pretty quickly. Once you plant your coffee beans, give them time to grow. It takes quite a while. Mine ranged from over a month to about 4 months to germinate. I have grown both Coffea arabica and Coffea liberica at this point and find germinating coffee beans from both types to be similar. It takes 2-3 years for a coffee tree to bear fruit. Keep your seeds moist, keep them warm, and wait! Have fun and thanks for watching.
