I don't know how you guys treat your sewage water over there but here all sewage water here is put in the ocean after getting cleaned. It should get pumped out again to consumers and used to water the garden or filling up pools and hot spas.
That's where our treated wastewater goes, straight into the Santa Monica Bay. I know a number of SoCal cities are working on toilet-to-tap recycling projects. It's the yuck factor that is hardest to overcome. Cleaning is the easy part

Congrats on the harvest! It had a nice fadegoing. Looked ready
Thanks Mi! The weather this week is frightfully grey anyway so I doubt it would have looked much different anyway.
congrats on the harvest shed! Looks good!
As does your garden.... I spent 6hours sunday with help from my folks and wife and completely re did our whole front garden. Edged the entire 50', dug out a whack of shitty running plants that were taking over the garden and lawn, planted a bunch of new stuff my mum split up for us last fall out of her gardens, didnt have to spend a penny! .... All thats left is the mulch, which thankfully my folks still have half a tractor trailer load at their place(has lasted 3years lol), so just gotta load the pickup a few times and it will be finished
the backyard... Well thats another years project... My veggie gardens are planted and thats what counts!
have a great day everyone!
Gardening is a ton of hard work, which is why we decided to get as low maintenance as possible. Getting too old to be spending weekends weeding
. Glad you like it!
afternoon mr.Shed, I must say I'm really liking the look of your garden and if Amy hadn't pointed it out that it isn't real I would never have known, apart from thinking you are ocd with your lawn and a pair of scissors but really good job, congrats to you and your son..... and on the harvest by the way....
Thanks Smeegol! My son is always up to earn money for weed. He can't have any of mine so he needs cash

Wow! What a fantastic update! That AK is such a beautiful plant Shed
Now I hate to say it but I’m actually waaay more impressed with your yard, I know how much work that must have been so
Enjoy all the fruits of your labour and a happy wife (most important)
The fruits of my labor are napping on the outdoor couch until the sun gets past the pine tree and burns me to a crisp

Congrats on the harvest,,, looks like fat ass buddage..... My yard in the back don't have a single blade of grass. All concrete and water. But just keeping the pool full takes abit of water. The front all we have is about a 10x10 square. But the funny thing is we never lose a drop of water on the earth. It all makes a cycle it all evaporates and comes back as rain and fresh as can be. If more how we manage what we have.
Thanks Norcali. The problem is that water never seems to come back as rain here. Our water seems to flood the mid-west!

Drizzling in LA this morning and could be completely overcast all week.
We're going from May grey to June gloom with hardly a sunny day between. So the Auto Masszar and the still-limp Haze Xtreme remain in the bike shed under the MarsHydro 300. The AK is slowly drying (slowly) in the shed, where it was 63º and 75% RH this morning. Nothing I can do about it.
A couple of random things this morning after the flurry of activity yesterday! First, here is the pineapple update. You can see now what becomes the top and what becomes the fruit:

Also, this weekend I planted that clone of the Glory Bush (Tibouchina urvilleana) that I posted earlier. It's in a small bed along the back wall of the house. No transplant shock on this yet even though the root system didn't hold a lot of the soil when I moved it.

And...I'm thinking of flipping the Gold Leaf early. I'm sure my wife is going to want to smoke the AK-47 and I can use another harvest for both topical oil and
@newty's
gummies that I want to try to make. It's about 7 weeks in flower so I could start shaping now, flip it at the end of June, and have it done by the end of August. I'll be able to leave it in the shed on a 12/12 with the Mars when I'm out of town mid-summer because the sun should be doing its job by then for the other plants. Anyway, it's a thought.
I hope you all are enjoying the rays of sunshine, because we're not seeing any of them here!
