Silver Surfer's 2010 Grow

Where did you get the plastic mulch SS? We made a killer slip and slide on memorial day in the front yard and went out trying to find some when I blew the pool wide open with my fatass. Ended up using 3mil painters drop cloths.

Oh yeah, peppers look killer too. When is the roasted corn dinner?

Thanks MW. The plastic mulch is nowhere near durable enough (1.25 mil) to use as a slide for wet asses. :lol: I ordered the 4 ft x 2,400 ft 1.25 mil embossed black from here.

The corn won't be ready for many weeks yet and all isn't for roasting. Three types of popcorn (Cherokee Long Ear, Pennsylvania Butter-Flavored, and Carousel) and Maize Morado, a dark purple, almost black ancient corn from Peru which was raised by the Incas. I'm anxious to try this purple corn, both roasted, ground into meal and maybe try some chicha morada.
 
Here ya go JR, the Purple Flash.

Crappy butt 1/2" hose. Sorry to hear it isn't working the way you had hoped.

The rest of the place looks freaking awesome SS. I see you're taking the container gardening to a new level. Those plastic totes are what 20 gallon? Interested to hear how the testing goes. Best of luck to you.
 
We used doubled up 1 mil for some parts of the slide and it was great.

Are the pepper totes growing any better than the non?

Damn, how many slides did you get outta 2 mils of plastic b4 it ripped? :)

Too early to say, but I can say the tote plants don't dislike their environment yet. ;)
 
Gangsta grow dude! That sucks about the irrigation. Prally need the low flow regulated emitters for each plant. That would probably even out the distribution. Just an idea, dunno what that might cost.

I have to agree with you Mr. A, it is indeed a good looking pepper plant.

Thanks, I've been looking at some drip tape that is supposed to provide even distribution on a slope.
