I had planned on becoming a guerilla gardener, and may still pick it up later, but the heat and lack of rain is just not in my favor.

I volunteer at a local community hospital and patients who have heart surgery or are diagnosed with type 2 diabetes they are advised to follow a plant based diet. I am working out the details on how to make this viable for as many people as possible.

I created this post because I just about have every piece of equipment I need.

I was going to post this in f/illegalism since all of the equipment was donated by big orange but it felt more at home here.

The only thing I now lack is available access to a working truck and maybe a trailer. Once I have a truck I will jump back into guerilla gardening since I will be able to take water anywhere.

I had a garden that was partly irrigated. The irrigation extended to half of a sweetcorn bed. The maize plants there were twice the size of those in the non-watered section!

I am going to run irrigation for my new garden. The summer heat this year was uncontrollable and unpredictable. My corn stalks dried out before getting any ears. Beans died. Did get broccoli, bell peppers, tomatoes, and all of my hydroponics greens did well.

I am breaking down the entire hydroponic setup and going to divide it into two small setups. I want to test using no inputs except waste from an aquaculture.

Climatic change is going to worsen faster! I know someone who grows cacti.
