Recent Notes
The past 2 months I've been working on a book on plant propagation. The working title is "Micronursery: How to grow a personal garden center in your backyard"
I completed my first draft of the body today: Preface + 7 chapters. I wrote it out by hand on about 2 1/2 legal pads.
Now to get this thing typed in and edited!

I did some reading in The Almanac of Naval Ravikant today.
The big take away for today was Leverage, which is define as using what you control to grow and maximize your influence.
In the not too distance past this was a Permissioned Leverage, meaning you'd have to ask for permission to use the resources. This could be in the form of capital (loans), labor (employees) or even following the rules (Twitter). This means someone or groups of people control you. Think the influence of the big investment banks or unions or other powerful interests. Look at what the state education systems are trying to do: leverage the minds of students to make good employees, not independent thinkers.
The other form of leverage is Permissionless where you can use the resource without permission of anybody or you own the resource. Think self publishing, code, distributed monetary systems (#bitcoin), protocols (#nostr). #homeschooling your children to be independent thinkers. The basis of a lot of these examples seem to be your mind.
My own little niche on the Permissionless Leverage front is plant propagation, and worm farming. Agriculture, #gardening and #permaculture. Biology and the systems we define and create can grow our wealth and influence. I do not need to trade time for money I can set up the systems and let them go and grow, I leverage biology to produce wealth.
You can look at what the "old guard" is trying to gain and maintain control over: education, crypto, food, nutrition, agriculture. Making these systems permissioned, under their control, to influence and leverage them out force you to use the established system. And this is often done under the guise of trying to protect you.
My thoughts for today!

Elderberry would be hardwood cuttings I'll stick in a February/March.
Willow would be hardwood or softwood cuttings depending on the time.
Mulberry and blackberry I've had success under mist... but would definitely try your aquaponics system.
I had used that for previously for some shrubs, but got away from it when I got the mist system going.

Hello fellow #permaculture minded Nostr peeps.
I'm exploring the idea of creating a book related to starting a home "micro" plant propagation setup and nursery with the knowledge I'm gaining working on our nursery at our property.
However, before I get too far, I wanted to chat with a few people who are interested in the same topic. It could be that you want to start your own "micro" nursery for a little extra money, or it could be that you're working on a food forest or a permaculture property and want to get going quicker, without spending money buying lots of plants.
If you have a few minutes for a DM conversation, I'd love to chat with you and I'd greatly appreciate your help!
I'd like to understand your background, needs, and current goals. I'd also like to understand any challenges or obstacles standing in your way.
My objective is to find a common thread in which I can help people using my unique skills and the expertise I've gained, so you can get started faster and with fewer mistakes.
If this sounds like something you'd be interested in, please DM me and we can communicate there!
Thanks a bunch and I look forward to hearing from you!

Yesterday as I was listening to a sermon the pastor was discussing Calvinism vs. Armeninism.
My take away is anything that puts the focus on man and not God will lead us in the wrong path.
We end up focusing on doctrine differences and comparisons and not seeing that God is awesome and that we need the relationship with Him.
Religions focused on man, where the aim is to categorize or focus on others are a distraction so we don't focus on ourselves, often because that may be uncomfortable.
Jesus' prayer reflects the focus on God the father.
