      @dogslobbergardens6606 2 роки тому +68

      Hah! Sad but true. Most people buy three bags of chips when they really need a pallet of them.
      Then they're mad because the weeds spring right back through the little skimpy half-inch layer they spread out.
      It actually takes 4-6 inches of mulch to really do you much good for weed control. And that's going to shrink down to maybe an inch or two thick in a couple years.
      Pro Tip: lay down three or four layers of cardboard first before the mulch.

      @@johnnygunz2300 cardboard is the secret weapon. It'll keep those weeds down better than thin mulch, at least for a year or so. By then the weeds have very often died off and can't come back. There will still be weed seeds in the ground though, so keep it heavily mulched.
      In a year or maybe two the cardboard breaks down and just becomes more soil.

      If I was retired, my first priority would be grandkids. Unless, I didn’t have any, then it would probably be home projects (there’s always something to fix).
      But it’s important to do whatever makes you happy, since you’ve earned that retirement, right.

      @@HelloThere... I am sure there are many paths to be able to work with plants or garden. In general unless you are an owner of a landscaping company or also enjoy cutting grass and tree trimming type work, it can be a humble profession. Farmers know a lot about growing things but industrial farming and gardening can be different. Society doesn't really value "green people." But, I do it because it makes me happy. I started when I was younger by volunteering with WWOOF (Willing Workers On Organic Farms)I learned a ton from small farmers. It's an international organization for volunteering on small farms. You can choose where you want to go and what farm type you want to work on. The best thing to do is learn by doing, reading is good, there is formal education in landscape, horticulture, or botany. I like the design, care and education aspects. While I can use a chainsaw and lawnmower, I do not prefer landscaping. I have been a garden manager/coordinator, teacher for nonprofits but there is also city/community work, private companies, or just side gigs. Depends on your interests and levels of commitment/ investment. I now work in a small greenhouse company cultivating plants and with customers. Good luck!

      That is nothing. Try moving out somewhere in the west, where we we have rocks more than soil sometimes, yes we have red and regular clay here, and drought on top of it every year. Add to that all the buttheads and numbskulls that move here from Cali or the Eastern U.S. that still think that grass is the way to go. Here farmers are having to let their fields go fallow while the golf courses and car washes still are allowed to be open even if they are still paying taxes.

Its really up to how much the gardener wants to put in for time and such. Imo, aquaponics is only really viable on large scale because your letting nature do alot of the work.

      I can top your laziness. 15-20 years ago I bought a conifer and broadleaf tree, each 3ft tall, from the local nursery thinking "ehh, lets see if these plants die too". I mostly ignore them for years and don't notice that they grew to like 10 ft each after a few years and their roots have bursted out of their cheap plastic pots and dug into the ground. They are now at least 15ft tall each and had to be trimmed because they were pushing against the fence that _was_ being propped up by hedges that got removed when our neighbors left. Pretty much every plant I intentionally tried to raise has died. Yet these two trees flourished despite major neglect almost as if to spite me.
