hell ya,those look cool
yeah i got some here and planted avocados, olives, blood oranges and pistachio, all good, only arse was before the fence the boar were tipping the units to get the water so lost a few trees to begin, but you live and learn right. All good now its fenced and if I was planting out in the raw, I would micro fence them to save the effort

one years worth of me sitting on my hands after planting it up with a mixed cover mate. You ought to see the piles of rocks at the side out of shot. They say its about motivation. For me its just anger now that is removing the rocks :) that and hours at least. My hands are raw from slinging rocks and lifting them from the abrasive top soil without gloves..I swear I had spares...still I cant stop working because i dont have mittens to protect my hands now....
right and i feel that,i seen a new machine they use over by you,ya cool as shit,damn thing is like a dozer but digs about 1 ft deep goes threw the process of collecting rock at what ever depth is the finish point,goes in a hopper at back of machine,lifts like a round bailer and dumps a pile of rocks,cool as shit and everytime im out working ,i think of this machine and think to myself,if i had that machine for just one day,hahahah,but im like you grubby old wore out hands that you cant even rub the loved ones stockings,hahahah,folk like us are just picked to make things right just cause we care lol

Hard to say but they got room ... I leave 2m between plants and they can roam a good distance before the next row crop which is cucumbers, then a row of courgettes. The left of shot will have a small screen fitted to stop them crawling in to my tomato rows and i am 1.5m inside this line. They tend to grow east as this is the morning side of course. they are rowed N.E direction and get full sun from 8am. They have 2m to the path in a south direction for crop 1 and about 5M to the cucumbers for all. I will screen them at this line I reckon and then just peg them if I need too. I will probably end up screening the whole block to make sure they dont over grow all the paths and I certainly dont want my Melons to be subject to the same bee as the Pumpkins if you feel me. It messes with the taste imo
only spots i have left ,have tree cover and i dont want them enough to go cutting them down,hahah i have that hill that one day when they legalize haa i want i field of weed there,dreams i guess,hahaha any way deer is a issue,but they feed were i want them too,,hell was talking to a neighbor,and mentioned a green house,he told me in the county were i live,i might want to rethink it,he put up a 20 x 30 shop,his taxes doubled,so he moved a county over and set up shop and pays less tax ,every structure to even include a chicken coop is taxed here

ha I trust the old timers here, they say mark for rain Saturday and Sunday. I will be chuffed if this is true. The real weather has been wrong on my phone all week. today it said overcast...its roasting and blinding sun with lots of cloud reflection amplifying it ...

Too late for climate change. I tried to get more people interested in helping sequester carbon, but its just too hard to get people to do anything much apart form be apathetic. They all want to go on holiday, or access some shiny trinket in some immediate way. No one much cares for the levels of deferment required to fix the worlds shit storms.
Truer words............. Sad but true bro

right and i feel that,i seen a new machine they use over by you,ya cool as shit,damn thing is like a dozer but digs about 1 ft deep goes threw the process of collecting rock at what ever depth is the finish point,goes in a hopper at back of machine,lifts like a round bailer and dumps a pile of rocks,cool as shit and everytime im out working ,i think of this machine and think to myself,if i had that machine for just one day,hahahah,but im like you grubby old wore out hands that you cant even rub the loved ones stockings,hahahah,folk like us are just picked to make things right just cause we care lol
if they want ladders, I am the man for putting them in stockings...its like a tease, i want to touch them, but i know they wont look that good if I do. Me and Palmer are good friends. I use about a ton of his hand cream every year, the coco butter one. No matter, like you said, my hands are like the front of a digger and so I dig with them. I want that machine too....a week at most and I will never need it again. I sense i got a few years worth of rocks to move by hand tho. I will let you know if i clear it before i cant move :-)

holy shit....tax ought to be a method used to help people act in a way that is mutually agreed by society. Instead it is just a way for posh kids, too scared to stick a knife in your face, to pinch your money and prevent you getting a leg up

yeah this old lady fell over here, banged her head in the campo. my friend who is a police man locally said the hogs ate her alive buddy. She was unconscious, but they ate her, or rather started eating her, may be she woke up and scared them by moving but the man I know said she died quickly after and when his team found her, she was partially eaten by all accounts The papers just said she died in the campo after going missing

I go find farmers mate and I am resow, so I always hang some crop out to seed. I have just bolted my khol rabi to get more seeds. Trouble is I got aphids for my trouble....I sprayed um off as its still a bit lite on predators here at this time of year.
here there are coops, but they are all over the place and again no one has all the the things. I go to a bigger one to get my irrigation stuff and he sells seeds but they are packets, they are however produced locally

get a digger, go under. You can buy cheap train carriages, the backs of trailers, shipping crates etc, bury them out of sight

they love meat more than veg in m y opinion,there no joke ,you got a hunt on your hands and they stalk as well or better than you,,are so called big problem is all about money,folk come and pay these rancher to kill um and a very lucritive bussines it is bro,when it hot and nothing but snakes and lizards crawl the ground,these ranchs lose serious money on there ranchs,live stock die from heat,water source is cactus,so they sell canned hunts,3 days 2 nights run right at 2500,and if you kill a trophy ,they charge a trophy fee plus a restock fee,sounds like texas is being over run right,bullshit to the small guy that cant afford a tractor or even able to rent a dozer to clean there mess up
