RE: PAPA-PEPPER'S WILD & STRANGE CONTEST SEASON 16 - ROUND 1 - PHOTO
Well, we've actually been talking about this over in the comments on ichiban's cobblestone pathways post ;p
There are some good suggestions, planting an irish moss in the gaps was maybe my favorite, a bit of work but it grows so tight that no weeds have room. With more work you can lay plastic under the bricks and fill the gaps with gravel,but it sounds a little late for that.
Maybe, now we have used this strategy around the farm, you can lay black plastic over the weeds for a few days (some plants take weeks), the lack of sun is the no. 1 one hundred percent natural plant killer I know of. Thats all I can think of right now, maybe hire a neighbor kid and pay him in ice cream sandwiches?
yea, i have black plastic (well i should say "we", its my parents house after all , no im not a basement nurrd, i left here first when i was 21 but life ... well, "life", right) in a lot of places here, i feel it not only prevents all that stuff from growing so you don't have to pluck it but when it rains and the water seeps through the sides it doesnt evaporate that fast as it condenses when the sun is really hot. It just condenses to the bottom of the plastic and then when it cools down goes back into the soil, a bit of a saver too seeing as water is costly (here).
Irish moss huh ? i will relay the proposal, do you have some kind of latin or official plantname for that please, i'll check out the post tonight too, i have too much mindstorm right now to focus
THANKS A LOT !!!
sustainable green solutions, i luvz it ! , i think the mother will too
Sagina subulata, hope it works wonders for you!
At some point we stop living with our parents and they start living with us. Family is important, take care of those relationships! Working together is what humans do best.
in some cases, i feel what humans are best at is destruction mostly but i guess point of view is built by experience ofcourse. I'm still hoping to get out of the country and get enough to take care if they need it. Dying or spending my last days in belgium is a bit of an obsessive nightmare to me :|
Oh I see! I have been working with Steem, I think it has the potential to help us reach our dreams, but always remember its a journey not a destination.
Creation/destruction, its a spectrum - I try to lean towards the light ;p
its a means to an end but means are in shorter supply than ends overhere i'm afraid ... this thing might very well give me a shot at getting some kind of a life back lol , and if not
well then i am where i stand , nothing lost nothing gained but time, which i would lose anyway
I just enjoy the way you talk! Time marches onward, that's for sure. I'm thinking that its great potential, and even if not the connections and lessons learned and earned here will be valuable for the next treasure hunt ;p
