Thanks so much for your message of support and advice @LilJonB …the plan is to curb the effect of the violent rains with a high transparent cover although this does increase the humidity slightly…hoping to curb this with a thinning of the vegetation around the grow to allow more of the prevailing winds…

Rain water is great and in the cheap! Lol feed my plants RW when ever I can! It just seems to give them more pep IMO.

You are absolutely right. Not only is rain free, it has trace amounts of nitrate nitrogen (which plants easily absorb) and microlife as well. Like a very light tea, full of oxygen. Rain barrels are the way to go for organics!

Speaking of rain barrels.

Home to a single wild tilapia.

Stupid Washington state it illegal to catch rain water. I mean we have shit tons on the Westside. Why not? Oh wait… you need to be relying on public services. Government…

I usually throw a couple minnows in my Barrel in the summer. to eat mosquito larvae. I’m guessing that’s what the tilapia is for?

Yup he eats everything even plant roots which he loves. No larvae in that barrel :+1:t4: had a few small guppies with him but they were eaten when I lagged on feeding him. :rofl:

Once the seeds have germinated in their trays, they’re going to be transferred over to these 4.2 gallon pots…

Here the young girls have the weak early-morning sun to warm up their limbs after a peaceful night of slumber… transparent sheeting and mango trees keep the strong rays and violent rains off…and strong nylon netting keeps the 2 and 4 legged villians at bay…chickens wouldn’t dare and i’ve even tested it to make it pig proof…

I really didn’t think it possible to make using a natural resource illegal…next they’ll be taxing us for using the sun…

Thats what I thought, I did the research and its a state law. Environmental harmful stuff might get you sick blah blah blah… for your safety type crap.
