Thats pretty rad except for the breaking in part. Do you plant directly into the ground?

Yes, I plant into the dirt. I had to dig it out and install drains last year As I got flooded the year before. I used to feed the cows there and it’s good soil. I got better security system with loud alarms.

Interesting. The plot where we grow was an old horse pasture. Great soil. What kind of security system did you go with?

Sweet!! Aged manure works for me! One of my friends years ago grew a 12’ in Michigan on the edge of an old pig barn. It stood above the shed like a Xmas tree. I got a Lorex camera set with a dual bullhorn motion detector. I got four motion detectors and it will alarm inside the house. Another guy near me has razor wire but idk bout that…doesn’t seem right kinda like a concentration camp for plants. Also a few trip wires to a 12 gauge blank noise maker my neighbors supposedly making😀.

Man thats a bummer. For me it was the dried out peat moss. Lesson well learned. I just ordered a 900 gallon fabric pot to grow veggies in my front yard. Not going to be mixing up much soil thats for sure.

Ya one need an outside source for big projects like that ! I’m guessing 8 yards probably for something like that! What do those sized pots go for? Can ya get them for less than 100$?

I think it comes to about 4.5 yards. I spent 130 on the pot. Not too bad. Especially since ill onlu be filling it up one time.

Thats the plan! Hopefully i can make this catch on in my neighborhood. Thatd be pretty sweet. I feel like the worms will eventually show up even if i dont add them by hand.

The motion detectors were by gaurdline I think and the bullhorn alarms were made by epsilon or something. I think the motion sectors are driveway monitors. I haven’t hooked them up yet😀
