Ever since I saw IGROWONE say something about them being seen, I started telling myself, to snap out the euphoria and really - REALLY look - at what people are likely to see.

It's been a very sobering week or so looking around, at all the trees you can see, from the roads. Even over my head, in my yard, I have about five medium olive type trees, and there's ONE spot among the five, I'm SURE no one could see unless I let the plant get big.

Matter of fact when he posted # 28 the other day I happened to be out and around, around daylight when the sun was jussst coming up.

There's no question at all, a BUNCH of places i picked as good GROWING places in this built up urban area, are absolute ringers for "will be seen and discussed widely by others."

I thought I had three or four, maybe five places in my yard, among five trees -

I have ONE and that's not even before the leaves fall.

So I'm hearing yas on it.



just be sure the tree you use will still have plenty of greenery on it around harvest time. or your plants could be showing like a sore thumb.

Oh, SH** I just asked my son in law who is a resident bike fanatic who just walked in on Sabbatical from the school of being young and hangin in with the tough knocks,

and he said, as I asked pertinent questions as he was, extending his research as to what was in our refrigerater, about wtf with these bikes, maine?

Says duh homie, says "Thim bike parts is hard to sort out if it's a mountain bike because they don't make many screw on pegs, for the axles for mountain bikes,

and if you wanted a fast-on/fast-off hand tightened with no extra syllables or parts deal, you'd have to find a longer axle a lotta times cause they ain't just throwing on extra metal to ship around the world, have it cut peoples' legs, and generally be there for no reason other than waiting for you to invent pot head bipods."

So I naturally, said, Da** you! Get out of my house forever! For telling me the truth amid all this bureaucracy and dejected resignation, springin up some hope,

and also, for, touchin' the Special Barbecue sauce, for your sandwich there, Dr. Bmx."

Nah,, I kid, I kid, but he told me the Mountain bike world is messed up for getting axles where you could modify pegs, and just spin-on, spin-off.

So I know I was sounding kinda strange but I think several people looking over the whole internet just discovered that in this world, there's a limited number of pegs for mountain bikes that will work,

and very few axles where you can buy a long one, and just spin on/off by hand, like Jimmie-James Bond, Yo.

K?

So I did that much research.

Peace on yas all

Okay I got off up inside muh brain,
stormin, yo -

and done gone and busted a move on my son in law about the PhD of bmx and other assorted bull shootin'

I say, " Well, if my idea about this bipod's gonna work, how come people been seein' these bipods working on things since freaking guns were invented, but nobody ever invents one when the whole western world, needs

stealth,
high performance,
light weight,
low complexity,
water pumpin, cause we all starvin' to death up in here with these

pot war pedophiles.

I say to my son in law, "You know what? I think, I think, since nobody's come up with the right idea yet,

the Maine Bipod, the Maine Jack Stand, the Maine Kick Stand,

it might not be the power of two bipods.

He says, "Well, if you're mr high this, and high that, and all "about that," and all that, how come you're still fixatin' on the power of two bipods,

"Why don'tcha he says to me,

invent a single spike you drive in the ground, and hinge the pump, and have one straight spike, with a place so you can drive it in the ground with your foot - "

He says, "like Ducatti invented."

And he says, "You ever see how they really hold a bike to work on it at the bike shop?

They just throw a clamp over YadaYaDa," he reveals, seeing all this in his head, I guess, he's some kinda saMaaaahrt, mutha****a,

And I say "So, you CLAMP ON? to ONE side?

He says, Yeah if it's gotta be NO modifications, and HARDLY ANY PARTS, do it kind of like a Ducatti stand."

I nodded like I knew but heres what went through my military dope warrin' mind:

Somethin that looks like a pickax: with the spike, and the curved flat thing,
with maybe the pick part cut off: and then, welded pointing straight down

when the handle is pointing straight up.

You have the handle up, the ten inch or twelve inch long spike pointing down at the ground, you stand on the flat thing, and drive it into the ground, around your local tree, where you pulled back the leaves, and let a little water soak into the ground.

When you leave, you cover it up.

Right?

So that's what I'm thinking between now and the last time I talked to yas all guys.

So he says to me, this,

and I think to myself,

so the pump, is on a HINGE right there or not, so it can be moved easy, I dunno, but anyway, you then,

using the mechanical clamping power of nuts running up and down some all thread,

just form some kind of clamps for the back frame pieces,

but then - you've gotta stop the bike from pressing DOWN too hard, either.

So I'm thinking that maybe instead of the handle of this spike you drive into the ground being wood,

maybe the answer is just a piece of all thread that's BIG: like, almost an INCH.

And you drive that thing in the ground, and using the threads on it, run two little clamps together,

that clamp around, the rear horizontal frame piece...

And then there needs to be a way so that after you're pulled down against the ONE side, you flip up, a little piece of small, I mean like, 3/8 or 5/8 all thread on that side,

hook the all thread down below the backing plate for the pump,

and just swing it up like those kinds of latches where the piece swings into a slot and is clamped, then sucked up using the power of adjusting where both clamp parts are, with the threads, on the all thread on THAT side, again.

Now you have to make sure the bike, can't press DOWN any more than you set with the two clamps.

Heck fellas my son in law said, "Hey, why don't you just build it heavy enough that you can suck it down against the pump reasonably well, just using the threads on the one side?"

In other words no piece of all thread between backing plate and bike frame on the

C.H.A.I.N. side,

because that's just making a lot more work and parts and bull to work with.


I firmly believe the old MAINE-WAY PUMPING STAND MIGHT BE called a MAINE SPIKE.

Peace on yas.

Me and my son-in-law talked some more. It should be like an upside down cross shape with a spike on the end,

no welding at all.

The cross shaped thing is a foot stomp piece on the right or left side, the other side is the base plate for the pump.

So you have the option of prepping for the spear, with a piece of pipe just larger, and using that pipe you bury in the ground, as a S O C K E T.


Two plates capture the bike in a clamp, thats shaped to stabilize the bike lateral and, vertical, yo,

the clamp is two pieces of flat metal a couple of inches wide, it catches the bike's lower arm and lifts, and then it tucks up and stabilizes the bike by interacting with the angled back end arm.

Clamp from on top is run down with two nuts like that one's run up to lift, height is adjusted manually using the clamp's four, clincher-type nuts on the All Thread.

It has to be massive all thread. Massive.

So you don't make the whole spear from all thread. The entire thing only needs to be as TALL AS THE AREA OF THE REAR ARM YOU ARE GOING TO CLAMP TO, PLUS, AS FAR AS IT IS TO THE BOTTOM OF THE SOCKET,

plus the distance the pump in between there adds, etc, yaDa Yada YAda.


Peace.

You can put two more little clamp pieces on the TOP arm of the back end and make a clamp for THAT one if you want to. You have to form the pieces of clamp by getting them against a piece of rebar a little bigger than your bike frame back end arms and ya use a vice or sledge hammer to bend the metal a little larger, then put padding on.

You spray that back end with a darn good shot of URETHANE and let it dry a few days before clamping in so that NO TELL TALE SCRATCHES APPEAR ON THE FRAME,

yo.

SEPARATE THE BASE PLATE FOR THE PUMP FROM THE ALL THREAD AND PIN THE BASE PLATE TO THE GROUND USING A LONG PIN ON EITHER END OF THE BASE PLATE: PUSH THEM INTO THE GROUND LIKE TENT SPIKES.

THEN YOU CAN SECURE THE BICYCLE UPRIGHT IN FRONT WITH A SMALL TREE

OR WITH A SOCKET you can use some LONG POLE YOU CUT, YO, and STASH - just bungee the living shot out of the two places where the frame crosses it, or WRAP THAT SPOT IN INNER TUBE MATERIAL, LIKE BICYCLE INNER TUBES, and BALING WIRE THE BIKE to the FRONT OBJECT, BABY:woohoo:

OR BUNGEE cord, or whatever it takes, your bungee cords are kinda a rockin item in life at times,


Then when you have the FRONT of the BIKE REALLY SECURE and you have it UPRIGHT, you'll need to learn to eyeball it to keep it from running off, till someone learns to make one auto-track on the center of the axle -

you can LIFT the BIKE by ONE
count them

ONE TALL L BRACKET that you run UP and DOWN the ALL THREAD to ESTABLISH HEIGHT

by, - again, do it cheap and easy with whatever's easiest either a little CLAMP action at the TOP with a little piece of metal hanging there in two bolts -

unfasten one bolt, it's swinging by the other, get it over the diagonal on the bike, put the second little nut and bolt in, and tighten -

OR, if youre somehow able to quickly adjust it to track right you might get away

with simply wrapping a cloth around the place the frame meets the top of the L bracket, there in front of the axle, behind the pedals where your heel would hit -

this SINGLE L bracket is like EIGHT inches TALL on my 29 inch bike, I - I modeled it with folded aluminum foil into an L bracket Lol because it was handy and I put it up there,

and you could, at the top, I think, VERY VERY CONCEIVABLY

gentlemen, just QUICKLY BALING WIRE THE TOP FRAME DIAGONAL and the UPPER SIDE of the L BRACKET.

WRAP FRAME WITH CLOTH RIGHT THERE, PUNCH TWO SMALL HOLES IN THE FRAME, run TWISTED TOGETHER BALING WIRE THROUGH THE HOLES, AND BAM

TWIST TIE THE FRAME AND THE UPRIGHT TOGETHER, BABY YEAH!

and then when you get the bike UP and in the AIR and LEVEL

you can SET THE PUMP IN RIGHT BENEATH IT AND YOU CAN POUND YOUR LARGE NAILS - ACTUALLY TENT STAKES

INTO THE GROUND TO HOLD THAT PUMP DOWN

GENTLEMEN.

HOW do ya LIKE ME NOW?

Am I channeling stuff that sounds reality based?

TWO sockets in the ground or ONE SOCKET near a SMALL TREE,

and LIFT the BIKE with ONE VERY STRONG L BRACKET

and TWIST TIE THE BIKE and the BACK ALL THREAD MAINESPIKE

and the FRONT STAKE, whatever you should wind up using.

A NICE STRONG FENCE POST on a REAL FENCE

MIGHT HELP YOUR BIKE STAY UPRIGHT if YOU play your cards right.

Peace on yas.

I GOT a DIAGRAM of a MOUNTAIN BIKE and started LOOKING

at it thinking about

HOW to TAKE yet MORE PARTS OUT OF THIS.

I COME TO THE CONCLUSION THE NEXT PART TO BE TAKEN AWAY MIGHT BE THE TALL SIDE OF THE L BRACKET

on the MaineSpike.

The TOP bar of the BICYCLE's BACK FRAME, the DIAGONAL,
could be, simply WRAPPED with something that won't scratch, or say PUT SOME KIND of SOFT COVER around the TOP of the all thread; a tee shirt or whatever

and you COULD VERY CONCEIVABLY, JUST TWIST TIE the UPPER DIAGONAL on the FRAME

DIRECTLY to the TOP of the ALL THREAD.

Just PULL them TOGETHER with appropriate padding between em if need by and BAM hit it with wire.

THIS way you take YET A FEW MORE OUNCES off the thing. You're going to establish an optimum slant to the bike so you can keep it on track, you can just TIE the THING to the DIAGONAL on the top there.

Ok? That's just something I observed. Why make the thing tall like that if you can tie directly to the all thread itself, and since the all thread is by definition a lot more sturdy than the little riser of that L bracket, inside there between the spokes, and the inside of the frame.

You should give yourself a reasonable height L bracket because you don't want it to be in danger of falling off, but if you simply TWIST TIE WIRE THE HORIZONTAL PART OF THE L BRACKET TO THE FRAME,

WITH SUFFICIENT thickness of baling wire,

you can just tie very adequately so things can't slip there, and at the top: hey who's to complain?

If you have that baby already vertical, against a small tree, and tied on like nobody's business with your local tripled-baling-wire ties, -

you're gonna be doing pretty well with the entire deal.

If you have a place to pump where there's no tree, go find an appropriately sized sapling and make a real good pole to secure in a SOCKET: A PIPE you SINK in the GROUND to below ground level and CAP when you leave

And just BAM BAM BAM!

BAM Tie it to the one in front,

BAM DROP the SPIKE in the SOCKET and set up the back end,

BAM slide the pump under the back wheel,

BAM TENT PEG IT SECURELY DOWN

BAM run the nut DOWN a LITTLE ONTO it,

and

BAM get on and start peddling, yo.

The REAL DEAL, you guys, I FIRMLY believe this and some one of us needs to build and work a proof-of-concept on it, I'm sorry I'm not on it but I am kind of busy,

It wouldn't take long but I don't have an old shallow well pump, either.

Peace you hippies.

JUST THINK, STATE OF MAINE, YOU FINALLY GOT NOTICED BY POT HEADS.

Im not sure but wouldn't a small manual pump powered by a small cordless drill be more efficient then say peddling a bike to power a pump. plus small manual pump is maybe 5" square carry in your pocket with you along with the drill together weighing less then said bike? I do however love the idea of using what you have on had to make it work.

Heyas.

The reason more people don't use them is because the battery drill types are pretty limited as to how high, they will actually throw, a respectable quantity of water, ICU.

Also once you have the pump stashed in the woods, the pump that is out there, weighs as much as a battery drill and a few extra batteries.

The bicycle while it does get in the way, makes it possible to pump the water much, MUCH MUCH FASTER for those who have to just PUMP to AN OUTDOOR GROW SOMEWHERE.

IT'S not HARD to GROW some WEED when you have TWO HUNDRED FEET of WATER HOSE, BURIED SNAKING DOWN TO NEAR THE POND/RIVER

AND YOU HAVE THE HOSES, GOING ALL THE WAY TO THE GROW,

AND YOU CAN PEDAL 100 GALLONS OF WATER OVER THERE IN SOMETHING LIKE

oh I dunno, maybe say THIRTY MINUTES?

Whereas BEFORE it would be almost IMPOSSIBLE for MANY PEOPLE to bring NEARLY that much water to a GROW because the
AMOUNT of TIME
AMOUNT of WORK
* * * HUGE TRAILS MADE BACK AND FORTH TO and AROUND the WATER

that sort of thing, ICU812.

I TOOK ANOTHER SPECIALIZED PART OFF GUYS

THE ENTIRE THING NOW HAS ONLY ONE NUT, ONE WIDE WASHER, AND SOME BALING WIRE WIRE-TIES TO HOLD IT UP,

ALONG WITH THE SINGLE CHUNK OF EXTRA THICK ALL THREAD TO LIFT THE BIKE UP AND DOWN.

IN THE DRAWING I PUT UP GUYS - I'M SORRY, I KNOW MY DRAWING IS LIKE... woaH..

in the DRAWING

NOTICE that I have A LARGE WASHER on top of ONE SINGLE NUT TO SIT THE BIKE FRAME ON,

and you just ADJUST PAD THICKNESS/HOW you WEDGE the spike to TILT ADJUST AND pull it up TIGHT WITH doubled-bailing wire TWIST ties.

THE BICYCLE TO THE ACTUAL SPIKE DOWN IN THE SOCKET: RIGHT AROUND THE ALL THREAD, PADDING THE BIKE WITH A LITTLE PIECE OF BICYCLE INNER TUBE OR WHATEVER, you know the drill.

I used the term WASHER. I did that to represent that LITERALLY you can get extra wide WASHERS and be FINE. You'll pad the frame an cinch it TIGHTLY with your doubled wire ties or EVEN some kind of sensible clamp, it's not like there's something magical about ''clamp technology'' that means we can't figure out A DOZEN VARIANTS before people settle down to using two, or three, or four main ways of doing things.

OKAY?

EVERYBODY who IS a GROWER or KNOWS SOMEONE who IS, PLEASE BUILD ONE OF THESE if YOU have an OLD BROKEN SHALLOW WELL PUMP AROUND,

and NAME WHATEVER VARIANT OF A SPIKE IT IS, PREFERABLY MINIMAL PARTS COUNT/WEIGHT/LOW DIFFICULTY OBTAINING PARTS FOR/ HIGH DIFFICULTY BEING IDENTIFIED AS UNUSUAL or ASSOCIATED with GUERRILLA GROWING

Boobman I guess you, and everybody else already know how to camouflage inner tubes so they physically resemble growth protuberances.

SHAPE and PAINT it so it LOOKS LIKE a SWELLED PLACE AROUND where A BROKEN OFF LIMB grew.

Kinda like THIS:

FIND a DOWNED TREE LIKE the KIND you're GROWING IN or A FALLEN LIMB from ONE.

CUT a PIECE OFF so it can be LAID AGAINST THE INNER TUBE AND CONFORM TO THE POUCHE'S SHAPE enough it fits in real good looking like a broken limb growing out of a swelled up place.

Reach around TO the inside, and FROM inside, PULL the BROKEN LIMB BASE UP AGAINST the RUBBER of your POUCH with SCREWS, making sure to use plenty wide-enough WASHERS.

Animals birds etc OFTEN choose human built objects that pop up in their territory as a promontory and even a nesting point.

CUT PIECES OF CARD BOARD THE SAME GENERAL SHAPE AND DEPTH TO SIMULATE YOUR BARK SO IT LOOKS REAL AND TEXTURED FROM BELOW, AND HOT GLUE it ON.

Paint and go.

Read this guy's commentary at the bottom below the last picture, above the comments. Check what he says.

http://forums.gardenweb.com/forums/load/azgard/msg0622165512067.html?25


"Now having said all that, here's (to me) the interesting part. Most days I have had to water the container plants once averaging 1.5 to 2 gallons of water per container. In the current hot weather of 100-110 degrees this week, I've had to water them 2 times daily. The olla watered plants on the other hand have been watered every 2nd or 3rd day, usually needing less than ½ gallon each time. In the current hot weather I'm topping it of daily with less than ½ gallon each time.

I know this is entirely unscientific, i.e. different containers, close but slightly different locations, some in containers the others in the ground, etc. but the difference in the amount of water needed is striking to me. In addition, the olla watered plants, although smaller than the container plants are healthier looking. Also, the container plants have had some days where they were watered in the morning but by the time I get home from work they had wilted and needed immediate watering. The olla watered plants don't experience that. They appear to be consistently getting water as needed. I'm attributing the difference in size to being transplanted, especially since I did it mid-morning on a hot, sunny day. And they are catching up with the container plants. But so far the difference in the amount of water needed, the ease of watering and the availability of water as needed to the plants has me sold on ollas."

=======



Check this: this is the kind of thing I'm thinking: not EXACTLY like this but with the POUCH

holding the HOME MADE OLLA with JUST ENOUGH COCO to MAKE SURE THE THING CAN LOSE WATER TO THE COCO IN WHICH THE ROOTS MOSTLY SIT.

Literally you could put the thing in there, put coco BELOW yo the OLLA and seal it all up,

and then let the plant grow out of a little space around the stem and hardly have anything up there but the pouch, the water to feed the OLLAs and enough coco to spread the joy around to all the roots the plant would make, and that's it.

I mean it just seems like conceptually the coco is just to facilitate giving the roots more area to grow back and forth around in picking up the water. It, serve as a means to PULL the water out.

Another thing that occurred to me is that since the OLLA in a HYDROPONIC system would be the really, the nearly SOLE system for watering except for some people might have rain water go in somehow - it seems like you could literally just take a GARBAGE bag JUST BIG enough for one of the home made OLLAS and enough coco around in there to make it work best for the roots, and at that point, you've got a pouch. Now obviously it's not that strong but effectively you could do something quite similarly tucking an OLLA into a waterproof flexible container that would then secure somewhere, so the bag didn't get damaged,

like in a tree, you'd put it in a pouch or in say, a bucket similarly, but in the ground, you'd be able to control precisely where all your roots were and how much of your water you lost.

If people grow with these OLLAS and use one half, one third the water they use other ways, then... what kind of production could you get, if you kept the darn thing from just radiating moisture the roots don't drink, out into the surrounding soil?

I mean it just seems like it's TOTALLY country for people to experiment with things in some of the most fundamental of guerrilla growing ways.

Peace on yas.

On this one, it's a PDF from Pretoria South Africa.

Dont waste too much time on the initial bullshoot on this one just GO DOWN AND START READING SECTION SEVEN.

Look at table 7.4.

READ BELOW there now. First it says "we note the automated sprinkler vs the watering can was not much different so you don't necessarily have to have sophisticated stuff etc"

Then they say REGARDING THE CLAY POT system: "IN THE PRESENT STUDY STATISTICALLY SIGNIFICANTLY HIGHER YIELDS with the clay pot irrigation system with THAN THE WATERING CAN IRRIGATION SYSTEM were obtained for THREE of the SEVEN CROPS."

Then,

"IN NO CASE DID THE CLAY POT SYSTEM GIVE SIGNIFICANTLY LOWER YIELDS THAN THE WATERING CAN IRRIGATION SYSTEM. "

GO DOWN TO TABLE 25: SEVEN CROPS: ALL USED FROM 55% TO 70% LESS WATER

i THINK IN A big WAY, A large olla and a SMALL CONTAINER with COCO around it can be a very VERY effective guerrilla grower's tool.

This one looks like it's gonna be good I haven't read it yet.


http://www.globalbuckets.org/p/olla-irrigation-clay-pot-system.html



It's pretty good look at what he says about the tomatoes in RED.

Same place, different page, look at how he's doing that. These OLLAS work in ANYTHING and if you take care I think it's gonna turn out being a cool thing, I know I can see some in my own future.

http://www.globalbuckets.org/p/grow-bags.html

LISTEN I THINK

YOU CAN GLUE TWO POTS TOGETHER, ONE INSIDE THE OTHER, OR TWO SAUCERS, AND ACTUALLY HAVE, very very LITTLE SPACE BETWEEN THEM so it's VERY LIGHTWEIGHT

and so it's got a HIGH AMOUNT of SURFACE AREA to WET the COCO with,

BECAUSE IF YOU put THEM TOGETHER one inside the other THEN YOU STILL HAVE AN INSIDE POT AREA YOU ARE WETTING, AND AN OUTSIDE POT AREA YOU ARE WETTING.

I am not sure yet how to BEST EXPLOIT THIS but LISTEN: WHAT IF WE POT HEADS INVENT THE WAY OF GETTING FULL SURFACE AREA COVERAGE FOR THE ROOTS OR AT LEAST, A WHOLE LOT,

BUT ONLY FILLING THE THIN space BETWEEN THE POTS with WATER it will be a MUCH LIGHTER POT to move around.

IN TREES the water's up there, who cares which pot it's in. As a

MATTER of FACT it might be BETTER if the pots are heavier, I don't know, but BEAR IT IN MIND okay?

I can see right now I'm going to be doing some work experimenting with the terracotta.

Okay I'm out. I won't be back to post on here for a while guys I have other things to do normally, I have to work but I was off this past week.


LATE EDIT:The idea about the high surface area growing isn't probably the right answer in trees because in trees, you WANT to use EACH POT for it's OWN STORAGE of a week's water. That way with a pouch up in the tree, you can go two, three weeks. My bad on that but still it seems like the efficiency one of these OLLAS could achieve would be PHENOMENAL.

FOR INSTANCE: now this isn't for everyone. WHAT about getting a GIANT clay pot and surrounding it with a LARGER PLASTIC POT, and FEEDING WATER INTO THE PLASTIC POT with a GRAVITY FEEDER

and LET THE ENTIRE INNER WALLS of the CLAY POT INSIDE, be the WATERING DEVICE?

Now I realize what I said might be kind of hard at first to see but if an OLLA will weep water all over it's surface then we should PLANT INSIDE AN OLLA WE SURROUND WITH A WATERPROOF, OUTER, PLASTIC POT: SEAL THEM TOGETHER, AND HAVE THE OLLA DO THE WORK WE NEED IT TO DO BEING the CONTAINER, ITSELF.

If we BURY an OLLA INSIDE the MIDDLE of it then in HIGH WATER DEMAND SUMMER we could feed BOTH instead of just ONE but truly I think the IDEA of the POT ITSELF being the OLLA

is a good idea.

We could call it the "SUPER OLLA" a CANNABIS OLLA.

The CANNABIS OLLA aka the MAINE OLLA aka the SUPER OLLA.

Peace on yas hippies.
