Bio - that pic from mother earth looks cool, but I see alot of work making those tunnels and I've seen really good setups that just divide one fenced double garden size rectangle into 2 with the coop in the middle, so that every other year side 1 is garden, side 2 is chicken run and vice versa. I'm down to watch if you go for that style tho!

lol,i wish i had never seen the chicken tunnels...in my mind they have turned into chicken extreme obstacle course...little tunnels everywhere,sort of like a habitrail for chickens....

They fly off the shelves but Portland Nursery usually has seedlings during this time of the year - planting season. There's usually 3 or 4 strains to choose from if that's important.

Unclefish-Yes I thought of that too. Also thought of it being an obstacle course for me as well. But I think a tunnel system around the perimeter of the garden like in the illustration would be more practical. I do a couple bong rips and all these fanciful impractical ideas get day dreamed upon, but few are actualized.
What will more likely be going down is chickens in a portable cage on the ground in the garden getting moved to strategic places.
schwagg- Thank you for posting the link to the tobacco seed site.
Clack- Thanks for posting about access to tobacco at Portland Nursery. If it flies off the shelves there it should do the same here as well.
Ive never used tobacco as an insecticide but understand it is an excellent way to repel them.

Sorry to here no nettles in your immediate area. They like it damp. They grow in most any kind of soils. But mostly they like it wet. Areas that I have found them is seeps, close to streams, bogs and wet openings in the woods. (hope im not sounding like a know it all, just trying to be helpful). Biggest patch to date is a local one here and it has to be an acre if it wasn't 5. Yerba buena! love it and its a flavor that I grew up with. Have not had any in quite some time and would love to trade some of my nettle tea for your yerba buena tea.
**************************************************************
Now, it took me a whole 15 minutes to physicaly make this tea. Plus the 1-2 weeks its gotta' ferment. Ive got five gallons which the directions says to dilute it to 5% H2O thats 20:1 suggested by the author for a foliar spray. So each quart makes 5 gallons of spray. So that is enough to make one hundred gallons of spray. Enough to last all summer with enough to bottle up and put a colorful label on it, call it something catchy like BIOS BIONIC BUD BUILDER.
Seriously now the author claimed it is an open market and literally NO ONE is making this stuff (as of printing). Now who wants to get a permit to harvest this stuff and market it. An acre must be enough to make a thousand gallons of 'concentrate' (easy). 1000 gallons at 20$ a quart is 80,000$. Unfortunately we are in the United States so when we get done paying for gas............... we will be broke.
Thanks for joining me for yet another manic episode of we grow gardens too!
Has anyone done a nettle tea thread? LOL

My veggies all mulched and plugged.
I love seeds and all your ganga looks like seed plants. Are the tomatoes from seed as well? What varieties of ganga?
All the ganja is seed grown. Seed plants have so much vigor, and are less likely to early flower this time of year. The tomatoes are grown from seed, except the closest in the picture, that tomato was grafted. I grow most plants from seed, much cheaper that way. Also, I enjoy saving seeds from harvests of previous years. Kind of a mark of a true farmer.
The ganja varieties are as follows:
GanjaRebelSeeds:
Blue Dream x 5g's
Double Og Sour
og x chem bx
og x chem keeper f2's
5g's red
5gs yellow
Clone only:
Blue Dream
Og Raskel:
White fire alien
BOG:
Grape Punch
This grow I am running mostly GanjaRebelSeed varieties. GanjaRebel can grow some amazing outdoor plants, so I thought I would try some of the secret sauce,.

Did I hear you right? The tomato closest is grafted? Now that is the mark of a true farmer. So we can practice grafting skills with tomatoes. Just love the seedplants. It has been my experience that seeds outgrow and overtake clones each and every time. These poly hybrids going around are a joke. What happened to true hybrid vigor. People used to advertise there strains (seed companies) as having true hybrid vigor that is achieved by taking two IBL lines to at least an F7 before crossing them to create new F1 stock. In my opinion people are crossing to many F1 and F2 strains and we have lost alot of the vigor we had in old school strains. Not saying some breeders dont take there gear to F7 before outcrossing, just that the majority dont. Unfortunately I dont have my shit together so I am going with clones. Ha Ha Have one seed plant that has just reached my chest. When growing up around here we had a saying "knee high by july" these days it's 8 ft high by july is the standard of a true farmer.
Anyway the garden is coming along nicely and I already harvested some peppers. Peppers in may! The potatoes are growing crazy fast this year and are knee high already. Donald Mallards hilled rows really put mine to shame in the mulch department so iv'e been busting ass to get mulch in there as well as build up monster hilled rows.

hey biosynthesis,
i dig out those trenches between rows every few months ,,
and will fill them back up with mulch, sawdust, newspaper etc ,
to rot down and then be dug out onto the top of the rows,
you should see the worms ...
i dont dig over the rows at all ..

Havent got the mulch in this section of the garden yet but I did want to show off my two rows of potatoes with a row of onions in between them. The potatoes are growin at a phenomenal rate this year.
HERE THEY ARE ON THE 15th OF MAY
AND TODAY JUNE 2 AFTER 17 DAYS OF GROWTH
To the right of the potatoes you can see a row of tomatoes. They are nearing waste high! More garden porn to come folks, stay tuned.

Got a 3 sisters going on in front, and an experimental 3 sisters in a 30 gallon smart pot just to see if it'll produce at all. 3 beans, 9 sweet corn (3 clusters of 3 seeds) and 2,..... I think Zucchini?
Main garden bed is normal fare, Cherry Tomatoes, Early girl tomato, and German Queen. Then Jalapeño, Habanero, green bell, and a couple varieties of New Mexico Chili peppers. Eggplant, Cantaloupe, Watermellon, Spices, and a mix of lettuce.
Much love

Nice Bio!
Do you add soil/keep burying the taters??

Do tomato plants benefit from that much soil? I usually grow my potted tomato plants in 7gal nursery pots, sometimes 10. Seem to do just as good as the plants in the raised beds. Although I grow all different variety's, so it's not comparing apples to apple.......I don't think that last sentence made any sense.
Bio - Killin it man. I love twice backed fresh potatoes.

I am envious of your weedless gardens. I am in a constant battle with the weeds! It's doesn't matter how much I put they never end. I till between the rows but they still come back within days and the hills are non-stop pulling.
This year in the garden:
Potatoes
Carrots
Radishes
iceberg lettuce
pumpkins
squash, buttercup, butternut
sun flowers
peas
beans
cucumbers
leaf lettuce
peppers
tomatoes
corn (peaches and cream early)
Going to be a great harvest this year if all goes well and I can keep the coons out!
Good luck everyone.
