Self Sufficient Me is based on our small 3-acre property/homestead in SE Queensland Australia about 45kms north of Brisbane – the climate is subtropical (similar to Florida). I started Self Sufficient Me in 2011 as a blog website project where I document and write about backyard food growing, self-sufficiency, and urban farming in general. I love sharing my foodie and DIY adventures online so come along with me and let’s get into it! Cheers, Mark 🙂

  1. I grow my dragons inside stacked semi truck tires. I put a very large (45gal?) pot inside the tire at the top and let it grow out and hang over the side, like you recommend in a video years ago.

  2. When you dragged those Dragon Fruit out & said they were the yellow ones, my stomach dropped as I know how prickly the fruit are & how invasive they can be, but then I saw your setup & realised you were familiar with these tricky little buggers, so a thorn free yellow one, that alone was worth watching this video for. With your lime trees, I did a permaculture course a few years back & they had their own nursery & I got a West Indian Lime from them as the person in charge said, & I quote, " It's the limest lime you will ever try ", & It's loaded at this moment. Just one other thing, I have worked with a guy who specilised in hedges, & he pointed out to me in the murraya hedges these dead spots that caused by a beatles that we called the Murraya borer, as it would eat the center out of branches killing off large chunks of the tree & even killing some, I have since found out they also like citrus & will do the same to them, are you familiar with this pest & have you had any problems with them ?, great video, cheers.

  3. Why do they have to take perfectly good pine timber, and add plastic to it? This is the sort of thing that just puts more micro-plastics into the environment. Shame. The fact that it's recycled means it's even more brittle and less durable than un-recycled plastic. It will be broken down by the elements (the sun mainly) and spread micro-plastics around your garden. That's a genie you can't put back in the bottle, and your children and grandchildren will have to deal with.
