RE: Ladies of hive 61st contest : My three wishes

I admire your spunk! I too have issues growing a garden, but part of that is where I live and things like slugs, who love to devour anything planted and then some! I'm hoping for a better outcome next year! As for solar; we started with one panel and currently have 56 panels on the roof and ground mount. It is a 6.3 KW system. During the summer, we run 90% on this system. In the winter, we run about 65%. We are not grid tied, so we can't sell back to the utility company. We do have a battery bank housing 12 golf cart batteries and run a 24V system. Does it work? You bet! We've run everything from a light to air conditioning with our system. And, it all started with one panel..........Take care and thanks for sharing and good luck to you in 2022!

Great to hear from someone who has already done it. It is really inspiring to hear 56 from 1. It may be off-grid but you are not not depending on the existing electrical grid, instead utilizing what the nature's gift. That's what makes the difference.
Have a great year ahead.

Thank you @raka! Take care!
