Everyone has to start somewhere -- what are some of your favorite gardening tools or ideas have you found that works for you?

During our last growing season, the wife and I decided to make our own collapsable trellises using cattle panel and zip ties. Works really well in our open garden. We had previously tried standing and supporting trellises vertically with angled supports, but we almost always ran into trouble when severe weather came along.

By making an A-frame structure out of the panels (securing at the top), it made it really easy to set up and never had an issue with the wind (though we did use a few stakes to hold it down just in case).

Pretty simple idea, but effective.

Easy drop in shooting platform for thr Sig 320/M17/M18. Very nifty magazine holder for lightning fast reloads without losing sight picture. Not shilling for these guys, it's just a very nice setup. Wait time on it is fuckin ridiculous though.

Not quite back to my old weight but I'm not too concerned about that. Those 5 lbs will show up in a week or two.

I changed my regimen though to more of a fighters stylized strength training over just strength training. I am adding far more core rotational strength. Don't know the name of the machine but it adjusts vertical head to toe with a weighted cable. I set that at various heights for targets head and body shots.. and then in guard I'll rotate the whole core, then I'll do it in a jab form, and then the hook form.. turn around and reverse it for resetting the guard from various strike locations.
Results.. mot much to show right away but the shoulder definition I never had before had arrived very fast this time. Ache and pains in the abs tell me it working though. Feeling very Chad this morning you nigger faggots. Wana try me!!

Current project - deciphering gardening data     (Gardening)
submitted by Jiggggg to Gardening 3.7 years ago (+9/-0)

This is probably some "no shit!" information for some of y'all but I'll post it anyway.

I have been gardening for years and usually have pretty good success just because I live in a very warm area that makes it easy to grow stuff, but sometimes it's hit or miss. One of the problems is that if you look online for advice, it's rather vague and may or may not apply to your USDA zone or type of soil or whatever.... "Plant in April" may be appropriate for someone in Idaho but crop-ruining for someone in Louisiana, see. There's a lot of conflicting data out there so it's hard to know what to do sometimes.

I decided to finally direct my autist researching towards figuring out everything about the plants I like to grow, exactly what they need in terms of temperatures, soil pH, watering, etc, and when to plant them according to the old ways. My great uncle used to have a hell of a garden and he swore by the old farmer's almanac and planted with the moons. I'm gathering this data and writing it down in a notebook so that I have it if shit hits the fan.

It's been a really interesting project and I highly recommend it if you're a seat-of-your-pants gardener like me.

Here are some links that may help you:
https://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/cdo-web/datatools/lcd - look up the historical data in your area. I just pulled up the entire year of 2020 as a 12-page PDF and got average temps throughout the year. Don't just guess - KNOW what happens each month. The wikipedia page on your city or a city close-by will sometimes have this data too.

https://www.almanac.com/gardening/growing-guides - The Old Farmer's Almanac guide to various plants. Each page will tell you temps they like, soil pH, etc

https://www.almanac.com/gardening/planting-calendar - type in your zip code and find out your first and last frost date and get average planting dates for various plants. I like to just use this to compare to my own dates I figured out with the NOAA data and it's lined up for the most part.
