Today I searched for hull-less oats, having only briefly read about them earlier in the year. This type of oats, avena nuda, are thought to be originally from China, and are much easier to grow on a small scale than the hulled oats that most of us know (avena sativa) as they do not require heat processing to remove the hulls. You can grow enough on 150sqm to likely be self sufficient for a year (unless you really really REALLY like oats eg want them for every meal).
These oats prefer no synthetic fertilisers and can grow just about anywhere in any type of soil and a range of climates. And they are hard to process industrially. So they weren't coming up with various searches and certainly are not available commercially in Australia.
Ask high school BFF (who owns land that had previously had oats grown on it) , and she gives me a link to the Victorian Agriculture Seed Database, which links to the Australian Grains Genebank GRIN-Global Database System.
I have now placed an order for 4 different strains of hull-less oats: one from Canada, one from the UK, and two of unknown origin.

Vancouver EV AssociationProbably better to have a smaller battery, based on average usage. Add more later if needed.
Also seek out bi-directional charging solutions and use your EV as additional storage capacity. An ID.4 would have 80kWh capacity. 8 days of additional backup for your home. And if a real crisis, you can charge elsewhere and bring more energy back home.

AdamHoping my "leave the button mushrooms in the sun (and under cover) to build up Vitamin D" project was successful. Many mushrooms, including button mushrooms, build up nutritionally significant levels of Vitamin D in response to UVB exposure. #Tacoma #mushrooms #Nutrition #food #selfsufficiency #washington
