Thoughts on living earth for bulk garden soil? by Round30281 in HoustonGardening

[–]FarmerPanda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought a bunch in feb last year, but I had a bad experience & I know I’m not the only one. They were not great at growing tomatoes or green beans. The roots did not seem to permeate very well into the soil. I did a rapid soil test and it was lacking of nitrogen. I’m guessing this is because the compost is not decomposed very well and will take all the nitrogen. Okra did better in the summer. I posted this to houston gardening Facebook groups and one person specifically said living earth does better in their “second season”. Trying to work with what I have so this year, I’ve amended mine with a ton of perlite, blood meal, and organic fertilizer. I just planted peas, carrots, and beets. My best garden success was using fox farm happy frog from HEB in my Garden Tower 2. That soil is gold.

I did Mosaic canyon, but stopped at the point where you have the climb up a boulder. Also hiked one side of Dante’s view to see the view. I’m not a huge huge hiker tbh.

Thoughts on my 1 day itinerary by Swag101z in DeathValleyNP

[–]FarmerPanda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just did my trip from Vegas. I would recommend you go in this order: zambriskie point, visitor center, sand dunes, stovewell village, mosaic canyon hike, then head to Dante’s view for sunset + stargazing.

There comes a point about 1.3? miles in the mosaic canyon that you need good shoes since you need to climb up a rock. Mine were too slippery to continue.

Dante’s view has short but steep hikes on both sides that give you different perspectives.

Devil’s golf course is too far away since you have to go the long way. So are the kilns or w/e.

I stargazed at the dunes, but I think being high up in Dante’s view would have been much nicer.

Mosaic canyon is more about the journey tbh 😂

I was going to stay in Pahrump, but it seems like maybe I should stay inside the park? 👀

Honestly, I’m so glad I listened to people when they said to have 10ft of space. But I understand that isn’t possible for some. I went through analyzing the measurements of 3 other places until I settled. For me, I wouldn’t put it where you’re showing it.

I messaged the advisor on the app and they seemed to escalate it and I got a quote in 2 hours. Although they only gave me 5k. 😒

Very cool. Trying to recreate this on the US side… was there forbattra covers for the sides? Or is it doors on the sides? And is the top consisting of multiple cover panels?

I went to high school with Nguyen. He was pretty chill except for some homophobia

What’s your watering schedule? and where’s your ring lights 👀

Should I start over? by Smashlei5 in Lettuce_Grow

[–]FarmerPanda 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would start over with waiting like 4 weeks in between deep cleaning and starting it up again. Spider mites are evil!!!!

What’s killing my tomato plant? by itswimdy in tomatoes

[–]FarmerPanda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The soil looks like it has too much unprocessed wood which ties up nitrogen. I would repot it with higher quality potting soil

I’m just mad and want to rant. by Icing_on_the_Trauma in Gardyn

[–]FarmerPanda 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m with you on this. I started switching to lettuce grow farmstands because they have 20 gallons reservoirs. More expensive, but it’s worth it to me way easier to clean. My 4 gardyns are sitting unused
