GET YOUR BACKUP POWER DONE BEFORE DECEMBER
BREAKING: Costco is rationing motor oil, limiting members to just two units every seven days — a major supply warning as the Iran war rattles global markets.
My recommendation to people who are struggling with gardening and growing your own food for any reason is to get into making yourself a well stocked heirloom seedbank. Obviously you want to learn how to grow the plants you are stocking seeds for. Even if you can't get more land don't beat yourself up or give up. You might get some land one day where it will be an excellent place to grow and be self-sufficient. Maybe not.
Also don't be discouraged because you see people able to provide for themselves with just a few raise beds and hanging pots and you can't, yet. Just do what you can to help offset some of what you need to buy. Plus you know exactly what has gone into the food you are about to eat.
I can tell you all how easy it is to screw up, because I do it. I even got out of gardening for a few years from a big failure I had one season. It sucked because I have quite the green thumb but even those who do it seemingly effortlessly have screwed up and will screw up again. Like anything it takes time and practice. Unfortunately gardening and farming has seasons, and well, you can't just start over but learn and do better next year.
However, one way you can try and learn, with more expense initially is get into hydroponics or even just pots inside which you can grow year round. Practice and mess with fertilizers. Test soils, amendments and so on. Learn how to train plants, this is a BIG one. The time you put in now even with less than a perfect setup will go a long way. Who knows if SHTF you can probably go move to a piece of land once owned, protect it, and now you have a new homestead :)

Total trade monopoly by Iran & Yemen Combined, these 2 key chokepoints (Hormuz & Bab el-Mandeb) control nearly 1/3 of all global maritime trade.
If both routes are squeezed at the same time, it forms a giant bottleneck for global shipping, offering them immense leverage.
