and on a side note. looks like every plant that made, it into thier individual cup's.

will get planted. this year i have no excess. and really didnt sell that many locally.

if my fortifyed soil could sing, IM SURE IT WOULD sound like a fine opera...

very intrested in the quality of the leaf, once they get over 12'' long,

and thier weight.

well due to the rain, i got most of the day off, [ i needed a break!!! ]] ... while looking at the patch, earlier, i GOT THE '' WORM '' i knew he'd be here, soon, and when the rain is gone for good, we will battle,

i killed the small ones, about 8 . and captured the 4 big ones, i spotted them early, they did no damage.

im trying to see if my pet turtles will eat them, so far the food is crawling on the preditor,..

the bacca patch is coming along very nicely,

>SAM_3165.jpgSAM_3166.jpgSAM_3167.jpgSAM_3168.jpg

it's looking a lot better than i thought it would,,,it's damn extremelly healthy, and very green,,,looking, and sticky to the touch, allready,,,

at least 2 strains were, from me removing a worm, i noticed how resinny the '' young'' leaf was,

......................................................

these pics were taken, after some pretty nasty rains weve had for 2 days now, it rained a good bit earlier, but no holding water, the ground just absorbs it,

ive seen others, on here having those issues, im lucky to have the soil i got,

Very nice. Is that black plastic your using for a cover/mulch?

it's not plastic,

it's a material they use on concrete, on road construction,

it's porous. the water flows thru it slowlly, as it gets wet.

i have a big hole, thats been fortifyed, cut in the felt, where, each plant is.

well. i pulled out the BACKPACK SPRAYER.. i aqquired to see if it worked,,, it looks like the wand had been run over,

i put my thumb over, the hose hole, and filled it with 2gallons, began pumping,,,, i could feel the pressure building on the hand pump.

then i released my thumb, and shot water all over my living room ceiling,,,lol

i just ordered me a new wand from amazon,,,, 20 bucks,

im gonna dry it the same way,

and may make some doors for my shed, that has 3 closed sides, and one open side,

i got a feeling this back pack sprayer, is gonna do the job 100 + %

hopefully it's spray range is a big circle, and can get most of the plant in one swipe,

im currentlly spraying B.T. right now, looks like we will have a couple hours of clear weather, i'll hope the poision does its job on some hungry critters, while its still good weather,

the grow has officially taken off, now it's time to pay close attention to pests, and supporting the plants if they need it,

so far ive supported all of my OTTOMAN.
