Guru's 2013

It begins with a tray...

 

[HabaneroHead]

This is not real. Those plants are on steroids :-))))))))))))

 

[Pepper-Guru]

mainly recyled container soil, new peat, perlite, a years worth of kitchen compost, brew compost, etc, worm poo, cotton seed meal, comfrey, kelp, vermiculite, green sand and some hardwood mulch

my mix changes every year man, what ever is around for free or cheap!

 

[OZZZ]

Gracias.

 

[ronniedeb]

That 1 month's progress is absolutely unreal. Hard to believe.

 

[GnomeGrown]

Looking awesome, Guru!
 

 

[Alphaeon]

Rich, that is absolutely OUTSTANDING!
 
Growing tomatoes in the 25 gallon grow bags this year and 10s for the peppers... maybe next year I will have to try some peppers in the 25s.

I got mine from Home Depot.  They have both the white plastic ones and the fabric ones.  Price is decent, but maybe not the absolute cheapest.

I can see I haven't been here often enough, PG!  
Usual kudos to you, brother.  Your glogs are always 
a good read, and the gospel of organic gardening
much appreciated!  The last pic of the plants in the grow
bags is just awesome!

Yo Rich! It would be cool if you wrote up a guide to composting etc. I know alot of us would really benefit from it. I know you have a tone of free time on your hands j/k.

 

[Pepper-Guru]

Well, unfortunately, I was robbed Tuesday night at work. I actually was putting together a few different guides for THP including footage and everything but they got me good. I had all of my cameras, cam corders, tablet, wallet, ss card, passport and all my Thailand stuff in my bug out bag. They busted my window and grabbed the bag. Essentially they got some of my favorite things in life...

 

[compmodder26]

Damn Rich.  So sorry to hear that.  I hope you can find out who did it.

 

[Pepper-Guru]

Its the 5th time its happened. Got the whole thing on surveillance cam. I am setting up a sting operation. Police are lazy. Gotta do things yourself if you want it done.

 

[TXCG]

Oh man Rich, I hate to hear that. I'm just glad they only got your stuff & you and your family are well.

 

[Pepper-Guru]

I'm a bit Buddhist when it comes to other life forms, but in this particular scenario, I dont mind the karma for breaking someone's leg.

 

[holyhotpeppers]

Geez man that sucks! I suggest on your sting op, some homemade Reaper spray to the eyes and then some of your fish stank to wash the perps off with.

 

[OZZZ]

That sucks! Hope you catch them red handed!
+1 on the reaper spray!

 

[Pepper-Guru]

gREat fuggin idea guys consider that done...

 

[PaulG]

PG - so sorry to her the bad news.  That would be enough to make
a grown man cry.  Fifth time?  To you, or just people in the lot?
+1 TXCG

Then again, my wife would say "It's just stuff" - but that doesn't
make it easier and I would still have dark thoughts, too.
Carry on, brother.  Good luck with the sting.

 

[GnomeGrown]

Sorry to hear the news, dude.
 
Stay on the eight fold path; that's my advice.
