I have to confess....

I was a tiller and am still sneaking a trilling or two whenever no one is watching...Troy-Bilt Pony 5 hp is the monkey on my back.

I will admit to massive consumption of wood chip usage too....and a dump truck just dropped a pile of compost ...the story there is 'I have know idea where it came from"...and I'm sticking to it.

Yeah...T-posts....cattle panels....chicken wire...T8 full spectrum gro lights.....rivers of blood and bone meal

Organic gardening is a gateway drug....next thing you know you will be laying on the floor in your basement covered in indoor grown lettuce, lavender and other perennials


brother....can you spare a cup of slow release organic calcium soil amendment

now all you need is a solar powered refrigerator and some good canning.

I used the Troy Bilt Bronco to de-rock about an acre of freshly cleared forest land. Tied a 5 gallon bucket to the handles of the tiller to store all the rocks it kicked up.
bought it used for about $300 and sold it many years later for about $300.
Once your ground has been "cleaned" of the roots and rocks...then I think you are better off spading it by hand...then spread your organic material on top of the loosened ground and let the worms pull the soil amendments into the ground for you.
Buy extra worms to add to your soil every year instead of the fuel, the belts and the worms that the roto-tiller eats and kills.

that's taken care of.....there a hot chick outside named Jenny Raider...ever heard of her?

I woke up yesterday and I killed off all my beans.....dragon tongue and green beans....it was a massacre...no survivors....since they can't speak for themselves I had the neighbor lady scream each time I pulled one out of the ground....you might think it strange...but each time she screamed her titties would jiggle....kind of like the girl putting her jeans on below.


another Nefarious garden practice

I don't use gas in the generator....didn't even consider a gas unit.  thinking about a battery type back up....got a buddy who goes wilderness camping.  He's rigged up so well it's like he never left home.....or has to never come back either.  He even made his RV an all terrain vehicle....looks like something you would see in a mad max movie...but very comfortable.

I am SO disgusted with my  NEW generator Nef!
Generac- gasoline. my drinking buddy goes to change the oil? by the book? The thing is  new? 
First oil change? we have been running it once in awhile as a test? oh maybe 5 months off and on? maybe less... costs a ton of money.!!! 
 He's not a dummy Nef!!! 

never started again?
another problem? 
What in the hell GOOD is a new emergency generator that WILL not start?
is that an Oxy MORON?

Weed is legal here....I could get all I want...if and when I might want it.  I'm always asked about growing weed....just not interested in doing it...even if it is legal

I talked to them....they wanted an arm and a leg for the name.....generac.  My son is an electric engineer...I can run mine on rendered hog fat if I have to...or whatever I might have that would make it work.  It's an rebuilt model.

Neighbor's also got a deep well with good water...pretty well fixed on what a person needs to live with that word I don't like...."sustainability"....the only word worse than that is..."diversity"

The cukes have left the building...er....garden!....it's turnip time!...and carrots
