I went to the city today. Stopped in at the grow shop for a big bag of perlite and some coco and saw this sitting there.

Roll-top backpack designed to be smell-proof. Waterproof zippers, good sized, decent straps, this is my new river fishing bag. :)
Regular price $130 USD, I paid $57CAD($42 USD) :coin:

I had my annual physical exam this morning, and other than a few mystery lumps (probably barnacles) everything is in working order.
In a rare display of self discipline, after two years I've managed to get my A1C from 6.1 (pre-diabetic) down to 5.7

No drugs, just eating a lot less sugar and starch.
My doctor was actually surprised that I was able to do it while getting fatter (I gained 12 lbs).

One thing at a time... :cool:

Fresh grass clippings & paper (mostly cardboard).
Very nice, I feed some cardboard to my worms but I never thought to compost it. Make sense, that's what the worms are doing. Right now, the wife took all my empty boxes, broke them down flat, layed it between the rows of our garden and then covered all with grass clippings. We use all our empty boxes a second time. Haven't thrown any out in years!

It is time to harvest 1/2 of the super soil composter. I go through a goodly amount, say 35 gallons or so every month. Seems like I'm always batching something. I always keep 20 gallons in reserve. Pulled out the reserve today, so, time to build the soil again.

Today I got 8 plants put outside. Walking around the garden requires smoking Susie Cream Cheese the entire time. There's a wall of funk when you walk around in there now. I've got smells currently that are mixes of Cheese, urine, smelly feet / Limburger Cheese and a bad breath. Sadly, by the time Dead Whabbits came out, the pollen and warm dry air combo had done away with my ability to sniff much.

Lol it's his end up smelling like Coyote kills outside :)

I'll be honest...I never considered ripping up the cardboard and using that for compost brown material..... I like to keep a pile going just to hide the trimmings!
I'm trying something that's new to me. Since March, I've been saving all my trimmings, stems and rootwads. I started out with a wide mouth 2 gallon jar, that was shortly over filled. Now it's in a 5 gallon bucket with a lid. Ive added 1 1/2 gallons of water, a dozen banana peels and a cup of molasses. When ever I add more it gets a good mixing before re-lidding. So I've stopped adding anything after it's 3 1/2 gallons full, and she's doing a light ferment, so I burp the bucket every few days. It sits in a warm room [90F] just breaking down slowly. August I'll drain off any solids, let it settle the fines on the bottom, and filter the juice for a natural fertilizer concentrate. I'll try it out on some junk beans to be safe and then, if it's too much for them, I'll use it as a compost accelerator in my outdoor veggie garden pile.
I'm always trying to reuse my waste.

The fungi/bacteria love it, Key is to not put cardboard or paper that they have plastic or certain prints on it. I even leave full pieces ontop of my vermicompost to keep a moisture and anti pest barrier. it works great caude if u add moisture based things and add the paper/cardboard it def will rebalance that and give a nice barrier/defense in ur composter.

no reason to throw away paper and cardboard, I use it as first layer before I add my landscape fabric , this makes it last longer but if ur walking on it this also makes things like rocks and misc things that would rip it when walked on way less like;y of happening. That layer under it will make a huge diff. I keep almost all my seasons cardboard and for me it shows how much it can do in garden and landscape fabric . I used to have to replace my walking way landscape in my grow square every 1-2 years but using cardboard and leaving previous landscape there vs removing it makes the end result very durable. Also buy ur landscape from greenhouse wholesalers or even on amazon , Home Depot and local hardware landscape fabric sucks ass. I made some serious mistakes thinking that was worth it and that stuff is ultra thin crap, crazy how none of them sell the legit greenhouse/commerical landscape. amazon sells tons of brands and it’s free ship so why fuck around lol

anyways went in town , gifted some clones and flower to a buddy. went to Dairy Queen for lunch. Made some dinner ( lasagna). Cleaned the kitchen and smoking right now. Plan is take more clones of moms to have Doubled and I since still in here might as well vs trying outdoors.

asap taking moms/seedlings to grow square and place in shade. Still need to submit journal ;)

This winter my whole grow square collapsed ( I’ll explain later) and my water/electric got also damaged out there. That’s quite the task to fix?. once plants recovered od I’ll place into final pots and top dress em . The veggie garden had over 50% in ground and have many things still to do….

‘’like many it’s endless work everyday , but wouldn’t ask it for anything else

Like anything , you are what u eat. So when adding stuff to compost and vermicompost. make sure u are feeding organics and things without obvious preservatives or dangerous .like if u say banana, if non organics I would be very weary of applying it cause of the dangerous fungicides they apply. just saying

I got up at 4:30 am, that's what I did.

Yawned for 30 minutes solid but finally feeling awake.

Just about ready to head for the mountains.
Cmon that’s only half the story . No cracking sounds of the joints as you got up ? No fart you thought was a little bit more ? No 10 minute piss mostly in the pan ? Confusion when you first open the eyes . Wait a minute ……..I think that’s me ?
