Learning How to Garden

For this project we are supposed to plan a garden. But how do you plan a garden? You plan a garden by figuring out how much soil you are going to need. So i decided to plan for an old garden bed. For the materials i have are an extra bag of soil the any plants i can find and the other containers that i’m going to plant in is a vase and a cardboard box i found. As for the quality of soil in the ground it’s a small plot with weeds growing in it but i am going to cover it with a gardening mix to use. For this project i'm planning on growing peppers, cilantro, onions, beans, cucumber, garlic, milkweed, lettuce because i hear probably most of them except for the no weeding. As for the containers the vase is going to be aquaponic, for the cardboard box i am going to fill it half way with soil or 180 cu in and in the garden i am going to use 15 cu ft of soil.(for diagrams see below)
and for the soil quality the N/P/K of ratio between the nitrogen phosphor and potassium that are necessary for plant growth and the ratio is 12/10/8.
one of the people example that i want to follow is Fukuoka's gardening style that is a bit more passive than what is common used. his first principal is no plowing and the garden is too small to bother with plowing, the second one is no chemical fertilizers but i might not bother with fertilizers at all, the third one is no weeding that i am going to follow, last is no chemical pesticides which i wasn't going to even bother with. But i will be still watering the plants two times a week as i still have to sustain sustainability.

The Burger Battle

for this unit named birth in our food for thought class we spent our time learning about the industrialization of food and how it affects the worlds diets and cultures. I learned about Michael Pollan's philosophy and observations of how foods and diets change because of the industrial revolutions. so for this project my class had to compare a food made at home to one made at a restaurant and describe both dishes with the most detail and give a conclusion of which one better. for this project i decided to compare a burger from McDonalds to one grilled at home. the reason why I chose to do MacDonald for the project is because it seems to be the stereotype for fast food chain with paying next to nothing to employees giving lackluster unhealthy products in next to no time after you order them, not to mention the seemingly endless amount of mistakes and contravenes. for the burger made at home it's very simple when it comes to prep and cooking. first we took all the Kir

On Tuesday 8/31/21 My school took me to the sonic sound pavilion to learn about the manipulation of sound for the many. Of the two pieces we ha time to hear I prefer the piece by TALsounds. the work is simular in tone and sound as music by C418 with less  emphasis on the piano and for airy sounds. Throughout the work the grows stranger or spiral outs from a place of comfort to the unknown like a comet orbiting a star.  the vast field is highly subjective many people will like the open space and fresh air and others will hate the lack of chairs and climat control in the "classroom". so how conducive it is for learning is dependent on the person and the time. But if there was a way to limit the outside in a classroom to the people that will benefit
