Ya
got a lawn? If you do, DUMP IT FAST cuz it sez something awful about you. READ the “ IN PRAISE OF NO FRONT LAWN
(*an article you can CLICK on…) YOUR GREEN LAWN tells us that you’re a
bourgeois twit and you’re spending a
ton of money on feeding, cutting and watering it, poisoning the environ with
all the high maintenance chemicals it needs and wasting money also spending ten
times what you need to spend on fruit and veggies when you could grow
everything including the gas in your tank. If you had a still to distill
grains.
Lawns
are an abomination we inherited from the Tudors who played a lot of croquet.
Lawns are a frivolous vanity these days, now, in the time of Cholera. The
Millennium. The 21st Century
of overpopulation, RECESSION, FAMINE, INFLATION, Global warming & Chemical Ecodangers and governments
who don’t much want us here or they wouldn’t force GM seeds on us, forbid our
growing/ trading food that doesn’t enrich their chums! And already they’re
ending or cutting back the entitlements that we paid for, like Social Security
and Med-I-Care. Only they’re having the states do it too. Ahnold just cut
dental for poor adults in California. And Congress has several bills making it
illegal to grow food without huge licensing fees which will double food prices.
So tear out the lawn and start growing food for your family.
Let me
tell you a thing about lawns. They are NOT eco-friendly. Lawns eat up way way
more water than a vegie garden and orchard and they give you nothing but
sterile soil. They require you to waste vast quantities of money on the
fertilizers required to keep them green. Get rid of the thing. Replace it with
an orchard and a vegie garden! (Fence the front yard while you’re at it and get
drip emitters. My neighbor teaches
EMITTER TECH at Pierce Agricultural College a few miles from here. His front
and back yards have this thin, black plastic conduit pipe going down every line
of growing things. An hour of turned on pipes a day at the right time, (being
A.M. and chosen by the computer robot, he has nothing to do with it,) and he’s
home free and I do mean free as water
goes right into every plant’s area or pot so it ends up being much less cost
than me with my hose doing an hour in front, an hour in back, daily, and I end
up paying $1.50 a day for water. . See the deal is, this method is economical,
barely uses any water at all as you’re targeting the roots with the emitter tips.
ISRAEL did it to a million miles of DESERT, TURNED SAND INTO a GARDEN full
of PROFITABLE AGRICULTURE!
Now
is the time to turn over the lawn, rot it down into good soil, grow & eat
organic and have a good disease-free life. WHO NEEDS sprayed APPLES at 2$
a pound? Not you. You can juice your crop all autumn and never spend a time on
BOTTLED stuff from concentrate. It doesn't matter what season it is when you
read this! If it's winter, summer, spring or autumn. TAKE OUT THE LAWN. OR use
part of it as a lawny path. Mark it with spray paint in meandering serpentines.
READ GARDEN LAYOUT.
You will need an oval pointed tip shovel,a flat shovel, a can of spray paint to
mark the edges of paths, a hand trowel
of solid steel, not tin or plastic cuz they bend as soil is damn hard
when we start a new garden.
HOW TO GROW TIGHTLY SPACED FOOD-BEARING FRUIT TREES, VINES, VEGETABLES when you FOODSCAPE THE AVERAGE CITY LOT – ANSWER: THE GROVE EFFECT!
Walk the
vacant lot planning your curving, meandering paths. Mark them or spray them.
Start building your DRY STACK concrete edging or lumber and stakes. Keep the
paths narrow. You aren’t going to mow them, but if you want grass on paths, measure
your mower. I use plain dirt on all
paths and all summer long, I life off rich soil that erodes to it, with a MULCHER VULTURE.
Create
your compost pile as you will need SOIL at low cost, or free. A HUGE TRUCK FULL OF MUSHROOM SPOOR is best
soil ever, and the mushroom grower nearest your home has to get rid of it every two weeks. So offer to haul it away
free. Go to market, find out who's growing mushrooms in your area, phone /
email them then drive there. A few truck load trips and you're ready to
grow. Hey, if it’s summer when you’re at the super market, ask produce
man for all the bags of CORN HUSKS that are on site. Load your trunk, take home
and compost them. He usually has them stuffed into plastic bags the size of a
man.
At
home, use soil amendments, the rotted corn husks from the super market in
summer, (bags high as your chest twice a day, easy) laid out, buried, are ready
in three months flat. Rot them down with a few trash cans full of manure, or if
you have a truck …a load of cow manure from a local dairy, with enough HEAT in
the rotting process that the weed seeds die. Compost your heap with a lot of
green leaves and grass so that it gets heated up. Bags of already rotted down
manure at 88c for a huge 2 cubic foot bag are cheap enough but they do not heat
up the pile. One great thing to add to your soil is a Bale of peat. Biggest one
at the store, about 14$. It must be added wet, so have a bucket handy. Add Sand
so that the peat won’t retain too much liquid. Old fashioned cat litter is a
great addition. Makes the soil very
friable, even clay like mine. BUT remove turds. The urine is the best part,
really fertilizes! It is pure urea, just like commercial urea costing l0$ a
bag. They say pregnant women should never garden in the soil there after, if
you use cat litter due to toxiplasmosis virus. Plan accordingly
Now, You
will need some seeds from the store. I like the 99c store as they sell 6
packets for a dollar. But friends’ gardens have all kinds of seed pods
maturing. ONLINE lists do, too. I give away seed. THE SEED LIST. If you
examine a plant, you will see where it is in its seed producing cycle. Wait til
the pod forms and dries somewhat..
NURSERY CULTURE: You will need all the good potting soil you can get for your seedlings which will be placed in flats. Ground soil isn't good enough, first it’s COLD in early SPRING, second it’s not accessible. Tear apart ping pong tables, put extra legs on, throw on South Side of the house, Tarp with plastic in winter. There’s your nursery. POTTING SOIL is way too expensive 5$ for two cubic feet ! So get mushroom spoor or make your own soil in a compost pile. Flats are available at garden centers. They will give them to you if you ask. Get to know the clerks there. Or use whatever apple box is around. Line them with anything, plastic is fine if you cut little holes for drainage. Burlap works, just as long as soil can not fall out of the holes. But you want some holes, little ones for extra water to drain out of the flat so plants do not rot. The irrigation must escape from some of the small holes so soil won't get sour! Sour soil rots the seeds. ALL THIS AMAZING TECHNOLOGY is COVERED IN THE BOOK THAT CATO THE ELDER LEFT THE ANCIENT ROMANS.
You will
be using the extant beds outdoors, creating meandering paths, PRIMER ON LAYOUT here.
You’ll be adding enrichments to the dirt in beds, not under the paths! While
you can buy dirt, by the truck load, or from a MUSHROOM producer, who has to
throw away a truck of spawn a week, don't buy it. Create your own. ADD stuff to
the yard soil. Seek out compost, that soft, fluffy, black soil you have in
little old crannies in the yard as opposed to the brown, dry, lumpy soil.. The
best compost is found under pinetrees, as the needles rot into acidic
humus. I don't see the sense in paying good money for dirt. You can manufacture
dirt! You should really start a compost pile. Use natural compost under bushes
for the time being, picking out the sow bugs as they eat seedlings but while
the seedlings are growing, which takes a while, you will be making compost
piles all over the garden. PILING trash, leaves, cat litter, kitchen garbage in
each mountain. Plant your seeds in the available compost that's already there,
probably enough for ten flats, start your garbage piles for September
planting.. then kick back and read these articles on

THE FUTURE. COMIN’ AT YA!
FASTER THAN YA THINK!
Think you can’t duke it out I the wilderness? A farmer told me: “ I own my grandfather's house which he bought (cash) with money he earned during the depression. My wife and I have already prepared the perfect recipe for these times: we have zero debt. We don't have much but what we have is ours and daily we're becoming better off relative to our mutual-funded and over-mortgaged yuppie neighbors. I'm already harvesting rhubarb, onions and asparagus here and the lettuce, peas and carrots are coming up and there's deer, rabbits and turkeys in the woods so if worse came to worse, we'd make it. The wife makes wonderful preserves and I'm a fair hand at brewing my own beer and wine. As we often tell people, the downturn means little to us since we never had bugger all to begin with. My wife does some office work and housecleaning and I am a carpenter/plumber so we always seem to be able to scratch together a few bucks. Freedom from want doesn't come from wealth....it comes from not wanting so much.”
