i want a lazyboy in my back garden like 209 and for the garden to be full of plants lol.

DST · Jul 3, 2013

haha, I noticed that as well....I got a fukkin fold down wooden chair in the stinky room that I bought from the Barras in 19canteen!! there was 3 of them oddly enough.

Don Gin and Ton · Jul 3, 2013

christ i have shitty deckchair, in a dark, hot room to chop, grow and veg in. kills my back doing more than 3 hours trimming in the thing

DST · Jul 3, 2013

Do you pull fresh air into the room Don, where do you extract to?

Don Gin and Ton · Jul 3, 2013

in through the window and the crack through the door frame and out through an airbrick, which causes a fair bit of problems airflow wise but it's workable.

whodatnation · Jul 3, 2013

Im always stressing about climate controlled drying... I dont want all my hard work going to shit :-(

But I also stand while I trim so prob not the best person to listen to bongsmilie

Late start today, not even had coffee yet. I gotta filter some rain water and tea so it doesn't clog the irrigation for my veggies... The ladies will get some too :-)

Also, met the bamboozle lady,,, dude shes got some fia bamboo for me to dig up! So stoked :-)

I cant wait to have a forest like hers! Inside the patch is soooooo calm quiet an peaceful, very good energy.
Im also prepping land for the veggie expansion for next summer... Adding lots of organic matter to the soil surface, and composting is the main focus for the next 6 months... Actually thats a lie, composting is just about always the main focus lol.

I also scored big on some free ditch dirt... Four dumptruck loads lmao how the hell am I going to move all of this!!!!! BTW I live out in the sticks otherwise I would not have accepted ditch dirt,,, its was clean clean and full of worms :-)

great structure and smells good.
Anywho a day in the life and times of whodat,,, later.

DST · Jul 3, 2013

Ditch dirt, I can imagine, but please enlighten me, why is it called "Ditch Dirt"?....perhaps from the simple method of digging ditches for snitches?

whodatnation · Jul 3, 2013

haha yeah, thats it ;-)

every now and then when the drainage ditches fill up with top soil the state scoops it out and looks for places to get rid of it :-)

That's usually good stuff-full of nutrients. Is it wet? ....................... :peace:

whodatnation · Jul 3, 2013

last two loads were wet, they will need some time to regain structure.

curious old fart · Jul 3, 2013

it will dry quicker if it is spread out.....my back hurts thinking about it. They can spread it when they dump by driving away as it starts to flow-saves you some work. ...................................... :peace:

That sort of material would be about the best of stuff...I would only
worry about materials included in the run-off.

This would be more of an issue for a bio-accumulator like mushrooms,
if there were, for example, heavy metals in the material.

Is this dumpage physically located nearby where it was taken? It would
be most comforting to know the surrounding area.

I am also soil/compost making. I have made compost for mushrooms
for a while, but am now soil making as I recycle the soils of old grows.

I figure to replace to such-crap soil of my yard over time.

Good stuff!

Given the available spot I had that wasnt really much of an option, extra driveway I got two left. I'll get to it eventually.

What happened was the guy show up and sai later today blablabla, I said cool. I then drove up the road and watch them and looked to see what was going on. Of course there is always risk involved concerning pollution/toxic run off, but I considered the factors of being country road very very lightly populated and the few spots that had a house leading to the ditch were well maintained thus leading me to believe they werent the trashy type of person who disposes of nasties unethically. Anywho yesh yesh that was on my mind,,, Im taking a chance,,, actually this just hit me ~ lab soil testing on several samples... BAM.

method2mymadness · Jul 3, 2013

Well my night consist of a skunk trying to get my chickens shity night shot u can kinda see the skunk laying on ground I threw a rock at it to get it out the chickens and guess I hit it and it got blood all over u can kinda see that to in the pic also I dnt like hurting wildlife that's not me but dnt fuck with my animals now my whole yard smells like skunk the skunk ran off last night but still smells
He is in the middle 3/4 up in the pic he tried to spray me twice while taking the pic so wasn't getting any closer

whodatnation · Jul 3, 2013

Time to load up the trusty 22 marlin LR ;-)

EDIT: You know what, my burn barrel needs more holes in it and Im actually out of ammo. Just on my way out so thanks for reminding me :eyesmoke:

Maybe a cold one as well! A cold one some target practice then back to work that sounds like a plan : bongsmilie

Skunks are far from endangered. Look at removing that one
as cleaning the gene pool of a less intelligent member.

country road very very lightly populated and the few spots that had a house leading to the ditch were well maintained

This sounds great. You have some very nice tilth to work with.

Good luck,

JD

P.S. The testing process interests me....I would have assumed that
the price was prohibitive. Please post what you can about who you
used, how it is done, the cost, and the results. I would likely do this
as well in the future. THX!

haha i dunno sounds like m2m has a pretty lethal rock chuck

whodatnation · Jul 3, 2013

Your nearest university would probably do it and at a very reasonable price. I do my garden soil for 10$ a sample. For pollution testing I will have to look into it. But for the 10$ I get All macro and allot of micro nutrients along with ph and ec.

Javadog · Jul 3, 2013

I will have to ask some So Cali people...there must be a local lab.
