sand, composted bark, chicken manure, clay, gravel.
It does drain well I use it in pots for short stays after digging plants up. I’ve got it 24” deep in my beds and the water doesn’t pool up

Good stuff
CAD if you do it yourself make sure at the butt splices you fill each connector with dialectic grease and cover each splice with marine heat shrink tubing

it’s a standalone movie. We watched it the other night I thought it was great. Wendell Pierce is a little over the top and the plot is pretty convoluted but it’s well made and a fun watch

got my dirt delivered today and I’m just waiting on the rain to move out next week and I’ll start working on finishing the banana patch. I got as much of the vines and dewberries out of there as I could and I have a thick layer of cardboard over most of it.

I ordered a rajapuri pup, 2 dwarf orinocos and a blue Java (supposedly the real thing). I have a dwarf cavendish struggling in a poor location I can move over there and I’m looking for a dwarf namwah

thanks for the inspiration brah

it’s been nice
90% of the state is still in drought conditions; BR and vicinity is the only area getting “normal” rainfall

still no press conference
still no Q&A with the front office
still no clarity on the plan going forward
still no reason for any fan engagement or excitement

this franchise is a joke

yes

rip that out and pour new. There’s little chance of a quality repair

Nice place by the way. Where is it?

nine yards of the BEST raised bed soil I have ever used. It took 40 yards to fill my three big garden beds and the results have been amazing



the dude custom ages, grinds and mixes at his yard and the quality is just not something you can buy in a bag
he was also incredible on the 1975 Dylan rolling thunder tour. Those shows are my all time favorite Bob Dylan music and ronson is a huge reason why
Sturgill on his relationship with Bobby

I was at the two dead ahead festivals and also the Golden Gate Park shows and can confirm that Sturgill was having a good old time and the music was transcendent
also talk to Scott at capital bedding. A custom mattress is a nice nice upgrade from factory
I’ve decided to take your advice and plant bananas in that wet spot. It’s close enough where I can water it if needed and run an extension cord for heat. Now I just need to find those plantains you mentioned. Got a rec?
