Butte's 2007 Outdoor - "In the trenches..."

[Dignan]

Nice, Butte. I love mulching with straw, too. My veggie garden has 3-4" worth of straw on top and the difference in water usage and soil temps is night and day. Will never go without it now.

I also love how it allows me to "cheat" when watering... instead of worrying about controlling the water flow so I don't ruin the soil structure and create holes, etc., the straw allows me to just about dump a bucket of water at the base of a plant without messing up the soil surface or compacting it.

Bummer about the camera, but looking forward to more pics of your GIANTS.

Looks like one hell of a conspicuous target for a DEA chopper!

Ya just gotta love watching cheese go bannana's in Norcal sun.

The buds get VERY heavy on her as I really had to stake my ass off last year. This year I am going to scrog several cheeses to see if this helps.

Best o luck to ya.

Well, after trying to resolve my photo upload problems with IC's web support for two weeks, it seems I'm a low priority (maybe not at all). Anybody out there got an inside line with the folks running this place? I'm certain it's something on the IC side of things as I get the exact same response on other machines/ IP's...

Sorry for the terribly small, off-site photos, but at least you get an idea what’s going on out here. Here’s the most recent photo I have. Looking at it, I see how badly I need to get out there and pick that place up!

Here’s a friend’s garden shot on the 9th. Always an inspiration...

This is another friend in a different part of the foothills. I’ve asked him to put something for scale in there next time, but the beds are, I believe, 5’ wide. I really like the fore-thought that went into this place. Check out the individual hose bibs and cedar construction.

Looks like one hell of a conspicuous target for a DEA chopper!

How about this place?!? This patch of ninety-six is one of the largest collectives I seen attempted. I didn't actually visit this garden, but was brought these photos. Personally, I'm not one for what I feel are high numbers, but the people in the collective are all responsible for their individual plots.

Finally, here’s a couple shots of what’s been devouring my time and energy...almost done...more parts...

Happy growing - Butte

Amazing gardens Butte, the second garden you posted pictures of is simply amazing... going to be some huge bush/trees by the years end... that is also a great idea with the collective with everyone tending to their own plots... this is the way i believe prop 215 was written and intended to be executed. love the shots and your garden is looking beautiful as ever butte, really looking forward to seeing your updates through flowering.
