      *FRANKENSKIES ☠ ☣* | DOCUMENTARY & HEALTH PAPER
      FrankenSkies is an 80 minute social change documentary regarding the Solar Geoengineering/Chemtrail agenda that affects every living being on earth. The struggle of bringing awareness to this subject, despite the obstacles of a socially engineered populace and the military industrial complex with its endless resources, is palpable in this awakening Truth feature.
      An impeccably timed eye opening expose, the film reveals the campaign to normalize chemical cloud formations via atmospheric aerosol dispersals. Up against a normalization timetable encompassing a controlled media and an indoctrinated Military Industrial Complex (Education, Media, Technocracy, and Industry) activists ask the question: *Is your silence your consent?*
      A shocking informative film on climate engineering, frequency control and CIA manipulation, the film's narrative unfolds through a historical timeline of experimentation on humanity, bringing us to a modern day laboratory that encompasses the air we breath and dictates when and where the sun shall shine, or not . . .

John's videos really motivated me to do my own thing and grow as much food as possible but come to find out wheat grass juice has everything the body needs period.

I am hoping you may inform us about beneficial bugs, their buffer-zone habitat, how to keep them over winter, and how to control consumer pest bugs and animals, also about randomizing the garden rows inboard of the buffer zone. I have seen one video on this subject and I would watch it again but it's gone somewhere. Thanks. I hope you can keep on producing these very interesting videos on these topics.

    I started growing my own fodder. I began with cleaned oats from feed store. I noticed after moving my fodder location closer to basement entrance, my yield was much less, about 2 lbs less... I thought mice were consuming my seed, so I bought traps, and caught only two. Even though I keep traps baited I haven't caught more. I still observed seed not all growing, and when I went to harvest.... little did I realize on my oats in their root mass was tons of Hessian Fly larve. Have you had any trouble with it? Or how to get rid of it with out pesticides?

Hopefully someone with an organic approach humbly accepts ownership and maintains the reputation. Lovely place and change of scenery compared to the mountains of WV.

    Very interesting, but I think this would only work if you lived close to an urban area. Where I live, there is no way that you could make that amount of money growing a vegetable. In fact, just a few days ago I sat down with a local organic young farmer who was trying to make it. He had decided to move more south where there is more of the market. It's unfortunate, but location means everything.

      grassy - I guess it's because I live in a remote area of Canada. So I'm thinking from my own personal location. However, this is definitely got me thinking and if it could be flash frozen, then the skies the limit for shipping. Is this possible?

    What is the source of his seed? Same question here, but isn't this entire inside look at this business enough? It's called 'trade secrets'. I'm glad he reserved some sensitive information for the seller's benefit, regardless how much I want to know the answer.

    What is the ideal Temperature? Didn't hear it mentioned. Does the Wheatgrass ever need extra fertilizer?

      No. It’s tough to grow in Louisiana because of the humidity (causes mold)
