Beschreibung

In The Propagation Handbook, plant stylist Hilton Carter reveals how to grow and increase your own plant family by propagating existing plants.

Not only a plant lover, Hilton is passionate about propagation, the process of growing a brand new healthy and happy plant from part of an existing one. In this, his fifth book, Hilton talks us through the process of propagating houseplants and explains all the necessary techniques, from the very simplest to more complex methods, such as air layering and grafting. He describes which method to use for different types of plant, and lists essential tools for the process. In Hilton's words: "You hear so much about plant 'parenthood', but knowing how to propagate and then watching as your little plant takes shape and develops into a full-grown plant is the very definition of this."

    Definition of Off-Grid Living Off-grid living is a lifestyle in which individuals or communities rely on their own resources to meet their energy, water, food, and shelter needs, rather than depending on public utilities and services. The term "off-grid" refers to the absence of a connection to the electrical grid, but the concept extends to all aspects of life that can be self-sustaining 
    The appeal of off-grid living stems from several factors. For some, it is a desire for independence and self-reliance, a longing for a simpler and more sustainable way of life, and a conscious effort to reduce their impact on the environment. For others, it may be a financial decision, as the cost of connecting to public utilities can be high in remote areas. Whatever the motivation, off-grid living requires a significant investment of time, effort, and resources, but can offer many benefits 
    Off-grid living involves the use of renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, hydro, and biofuels, to generate electricity. These systems can be designed to meet the specific needs of the household or community, and are often combined with energy storage systems such as batteries or pumped hydro storage. By relying on renewable energy sources, off-grid living can help reduce greenhouse gas 2 emissions and environmental degradation associated with fossil fuel based energy systems
