All is finally green again!

Welcome to the place where I can make a garden! Most likely a Straw Bale one :)

Yesterday I saw it was getting cloudy and grey and so I went to buy the water butt, the last one since ages has sat in the shop just waiting for me to have the cash convenient to go buy it!

I didn't realize whilst laying in bed yesterday evening, that it had started raining and I hadn't set up the 210 L water butt container, rain collector thingy yet. So in my boxers and bare foot I went out to move the tubs of dumpstered paint that were there under thick ice and snow all winter so are proberbly trash again. (Left)

They did come in handy though for the base of the water butt. The actual container itself cost 360 kr, but I get a discount for being a freak and the base that is sold separately with it, costs 299 kr. I didn't obviously buy it, and I know, that after summer at the latest, I will find the base in the trash for free as they have no more water butts.

You know its worth to get out of bed and go out in the rain and do something if you get a overwhelming thought to go do it, if your farming or gardening - its a must.

This was the rain water I got from 2 mins of getting wet last night, a nice reward considering it will most likely be full on hot summer again after this rain, and the stream will have dried up again.

There's also a tap with it and as I usually would loose something like this, it's in a safe place for now! This is just rain water from one side of the roof because the other side runs of into the valley from over the night. Ill have to drill a whole and fit the tap when it's needed doing, but as its quite low anyway phfff.. It can also definitely easily become a place for me to bath in every now and then!

Before we go to the BloomBox..

Everything has been appreciating the rain. The other day I found lots of small lavender plants being thrown out at a garden center, nothing even wrong with them they just needed a sunny spot. There was also this black plastic tub, both had just a crack damage around the rim (which will defiantly be used for washing body's in as its fine!) and also the green basket that the lavenders were in.

The lavenders will be helpful to mix in with the smell of sweet ganja plants that will be wofting down the hillside! here's one from yesterday that I transplanted at the top of our stairs. Its now as I type, is getting a good watering..

This Above was taken yesterday after transplanting..
The other Pictures Below are from now (before it started heavily raining right now!)..

Pumpkins!

Potatoes that are standing in a gas heater we got from the trash, it doesn't work something need fixing or it could be filled with soil and be used for planting the baby pumpkins in to reduce trash!

Cannabis!

Can you see the CBD Critical Cure?

The terrible Acupolco Gold Pheno

Both didn't fit in the BloomBox and are now outdoor experiments, the Acupoloco gold can be eat by slug's for all I care!

Wanna see the BloomBox?!

They arn't receiving this rain because I gave them a heavy watering not so long ago and I want it to dry out first and maybe even let the leaves drop a bit so they get hungry.

and a bit closer..

The Canopy!

I plan to go buy sheet's of metal mesh that I saw in a shop and then to make a layer at the height of the green sheets that make up the walls. I have no experience of this I've only seen things over the years, so I'm open to suggestions (as always) here, on when the next layer should be added!

I saw in the valley what I believe to be a worm hole to another dimension!! Trippy Photo!

Its rained so hard since starting this post, check this out! A near disaster if the BloomBox wasn't strongly built. I just got soaked because I heard water splashing on the back steps and the guttering was blocked, causing water to splash back on the door, which was what I have already repaired! That tree must go soon!

It came with a tap and that's something I could easily use so its in a safe place now!
Check out the garden..

And the paint pots were not full it seems as one collapsed under the weight!

There's been so much heavy rain today I'm very happy that I have a green house! It would have been way too much water for the plants and I'm sure that this would have made the roots get rot and mold on. And anyway I don;t have to worry about having a collection of rain water any more! In fact I could ask the magic of pronoia to manifest me a 1000L cube and plonk that on the other side of the cabin.
