GOT REALLY BORED TODAY SO I DECIDED TO MAKE A SORT OF BENCH WHERE I COULD PUT MY BONSAI TREES AND THEN THEY'D GET FULL SUN. FUN FACT: THEY SIT ATOP A LARGE SHEET OF PLEXIGLASS, WHICH RUNS THE WATER OFF THE EDGE OF THE DECK AND HARMLESSLY INTO THE IRISES 20 FEET BELOW. NO MORE PISSING MY NEIGHBORS OFF WITH EXCESS WATER AND PLANT JUICE, BOY HOWDY!
IN ADDITION IM WORKING ON A VEGETABLE GARDEN OF SORTS (YOU CAN SEE SOME OF THE BOXES TOWARDS THE MIDDLE OF THE BELOW PHOTO - THEY ARE SUSPENDED AND RECEIVE DECENT SUNLIGHT. HOWEVER I NEEDED TO READJUST MY WATERING SYSTEM
SO IN THE ABOVE PHOTO YOU MAY NOTICE THE BUCKET HANGING FROM THE WALL IN THE FAR RIGHT. THAT HANGS BENEATH A LEAKY DOWNSPOUT, SO IT REFILS WHEN IT RAINS. THE BUCKET IS HIGH ENOUGH THAT ALL PLANTS ARE BELOW, AND IT ALLOWS FOR A SIPHON. I THEN HANG THE TUBES ON THE STAIRS WHEN I'M DONE WATERING AND THEY ARE HIGH ENOUGH THAT THE PRESSURE OF THE SIPHON IS STILL HELD BUT ITS NOT LEAKING EVERYWHERE. FROM THERE ALL I HAVE TO DO IS TAKE THE TUBES OFF THE HOOKS AND BAM FRESH WATER.
I SHALL BE GROWING GREAN BEANS, SNOW PEAS, TOMATOES, CILANTRO, LETTUCE AND CUCUMBERS. ALL ORGANIC SO THAT I CAN SAVE SEEDS AND REPLANT NEXT YEAR, SELECTING FROM ONLY THE FINEST FRUITS. SELECTIVE BREEDING FTW
