Just got power back on, not too much damage, the eye of the hurricane passed over us, glad only a category 1 :).

#grownostr #hurrican #beryl right at the eye of the storm. No power, lots of rain and some pretty good gusts of wind.

#grownostr #hurricane #beryl in the worst of the hurricane, some big gusts, power has gone on and off several times. Lots of rain.

#grownostr #hurricane #beryl getting a little windy now, peak wind in 2 hours. Sounds like my chimney cap is loose :). Made my coffee in case we lose power. https://video.nostr.build/2ac3d5ad5f6d5908ca49c51adf806daa4b4da87d140a766a012d171ed5307c14.mp4

#hurricane #grownostr Hurricane will pass right to the left of us, eye should be strongest at 6AM tomorrow. Only 60-75 mph gusts, 6-9โ€ of rain. Our house didnโ€™t flood for Harvey, so should be good.

Batteries, lights, generator, hoping for a big nothing burger!

Saw our first praying mantis in 20 years at Gun Barrel city, they are fast little buggers!

Yeah great way for propagation beds. Love your method of pumps on a timer to control flow.

Iโ€™m getting some air pots from a tree nursery which will fit better in the tray. Pond Plant baskets are a little big for multiple.

#grownostr #fish #pond Here is an overview of my backyard pond where Iโ€™m growing koi, and feeder goldfish. They grow really well and the system is well balanced from all of the plants.

#grownostr #mulberry #propagation another video on how to propagate mulberry trees from softwood cuttings.

This video shows how to make new mulberry trees. I use a 6 to 9 inch cutting from a mulberry tree strip off the leaves place in a aquaponics flood and drain bed, 6 weeks it will have rooted. You can pot up or plant in shaded ground, heavily watered.

I started my mulberry from a batch of 10 cuttings, I have as many mulberry trees as I want and try to sell them locally.

#grownostr #aquaponics #diy #garden this is my video showing how to make a simple concrete, mixing tray propagation bed for aquaponics.

I switched all the fittings to irrigation fittings I use half-inch and three-quarter inch irrigation barbs along with rubber swing arm irrigation tubing . The switch makes the cost of fittings cheaper and itโ€™s easy to screw into the pond pump bulkhead fittings and use PVC connectors. You can make your own propagation bed with any water underneath.

Forgot about this site, really cool nursery products. I finally found some air pots, started with 20 shipped for $50. https://stuewe.com/product/1-air-pruning-pot/ #garden #grownostr

#grownostr #3dprinter made a design for a 2x2x4โ€h net cup for aquaponics. Something that can stack better in the concrete mixing tray then the plant basket.

#grownostr #chestnut Looks like someone has a surviving American chestnut, heโ€™ll be sending out seeds in the fall. https://www.ar15.com/forums/General/Tree-Experts-did-I-find-a-unicorn-surviving-mature-american-chestnut-7-1-double-confirmed/5-2718054/?page=1

They show up everywhere :). Iโ€™ll find them in the aquaponics system. Hardy little guys, Iโ€™m surprised I havenโ€™t killed all mine in the garage, probably 100 degrees in there.
