That is awesome...were any permits required?

Happy 420 indeed

 

[HillMizer]

To my knowledge no permits. The volume of soil I moved was the porting soil not native soil so I think no. I don't think so for the trees either.

I wasn't going to get them anyway. I'm already sneaking around the ordinances.


Shoot shovel and shut up.

This is going to be a good thread, great start

 

[HillMizer]

I might have used a permit today. I knocked in a greenhouse pad with the backhoe and moved more logs.

My dirtbag rock climber friends rigged logs and leveled spots for the new 400 gallon holes.

 

[HillMizer]

There's the big picture. I'm going to have one of the climbers set up a rope to take photos from the tall trees.

What's the opinion on double or triple planting?
I don't have as much sun as other folks, the least I ever had and there is no plant count.

I might end up with 3 phenos in a hole.

 

[HillMizer]

Well temporary greenhouse needed a little watching during the big rain. Maybe some weep holes in the plastic would have helped prevent pooling.

Somehow no plants got crushed. There was a little spot in the middle with veggie flats. I just poked some holes to left it drain and finished my dinner. The hoop popped back up on it's own.

The big hoop is going up this week. These gals can use some more sun. I'll snap some photos of them when I get out of the hot tub.

Don't forget to vote NO on measure W you in Nevada county on June 7th 2016.

You can see the little greenhouse from the hot tub

Got a little wrinkle leaf in the seed girls. I'm thinking it's from the cold. The Azure Haze seems to have taken it the worst. So far these Azure Haze appear to be a low quality seed with a poor germ rate and are a little picky. Not the fresh blue dream I was looking for. We'll see

Sky Lotus raging in right behind the super critical.

Dep babies from the indoor space.

Not the best stock starting out this year but we'll at least get enough to buy a loaf of bread.

I have a little interveinal chlorosis on the growth. Since I gave them a lot of Cal lately I'm thinking it's a zinc issue. Zinc is a mobile +2 charge right? I'll do a round of Biomin. Tell me what YOU see. Thanks!

I'll take LUCKY over good any day...glad you weren't hurt to bad and it looks like an easy repair....gotta love cheap ass tunnels/hoops, their SO easy to set up AND repair.....GOOD luck HIll!

 

[Manivelle]

hi have you already tried the crustacean or is it the first time ?

 

[HillMizer]

Thanks Megayields. I've had some nice greenhouses before I'm enjoying the quick tunnels.

I have been using crab for a while Manivelle. This is first time with "crustacean". Such a good microbial food.

 

[Manivelle]

i did'nt knew it is a feeder for microbial . do you know how it work ?

i don't know exactly the composition of crustacean but sureley contain calcium/magnesium that is the best to regulate soil ph in organic susbtract. as microbial activities increase the ph level during the season. and at the same time calcium and magnesium became easier to be absorb due to cations exchange.
i'm happy to see grower using it . here in france it's hard to make people to go organic.

Nice way to start a day I would say! I'd go hot tub to a bathrobe straight down to the greenhouse every Mornin'. Back to the hot tub hah. Good stuff!

Why the hell would you waste your time even putting on a robe? Or am I just odd? Lol

 

[HillMizer]

Usually bathrobe isn't needed. It's bit chilly in the morning now though.

I totally mixed up some micro and foliared in my white cotton bathrobe and got it all grubby.

Ya, on the ranch, my viewpoint is....if the neighbors happen to see me ass naked or close to it, that is their damn fault and either they are trespassing or damn near it

The first appearance of Skilletdawg in this thread!
I rented a minitrack bobcat to finish filling pots and trench for the water line. It's a walk behind model that works well in tight spaces.
The trencher works well as a tiller too, we loosened dirt for making level spots for the pots with it.

Grade stakes hold the fabric in place while we fill them.

"The Little White Train" hauled bins of amendments into the garden. We used a little Echo mantis type tiller to mix the pots and my homeboy got it done just before a little rain came.

It's been chilly and I have been running heat in my little hoopy. Just a little heater screwed onto a propane tank. I miss my big thermostat controlled modine heater.
