no weeds

Papa’s World – Weed and Feed – then irrigation!

/ Tom / Leave a comment

While our roses are doing really well – the lawn needs some care –

So – I have been every two weeks – doing a little ‘WEED and FEED”!

The centipede grass is slowly coming out of its Winter brown state!

But this year we have a lot of new weeds that seem to have made their presence known!

Above are the Swedish Pink Roses on this side of the house!

After spreading the Weed and Feed – it was TIME to run the irrigation system –

Giving the lawn a good soaking!

We are at the side of the enclosed lanai and the palm tree!

We have had all the landscaping done in the past 2 1/2 years and are done!

This is the backyard and we have six zones for irrigation!

The Crepe Myrtles were also placed in our landscaping.

The tree line is a protected area and will not be cleared.

We sold all of our lawn equipment when we moved here to N.C. –

Now that I am 75 years old – mowing is not at the top of my list –

So we hire a young man to mow – and trim –

He does lawn maintenance with fertilizer and pre-emptive growth-

but for some reason this year we have some weed!

We have had so much rain and really heavy at times –

this area gets like a small stream running through it and down to the woods.

It washes the sand out from underneath –

Trying to come up with a solution to remedy this!

But – this is the backyard with the trees put in place.

The outdoor patio with our Tower Garden is also here!

Finally the other side yard with the red roses at the top –

The lawn will come back – it will take time –

I now have the irrigation system on automatic.

Papa’s World – growing – growing – growing – veggies!

For the past seven or eight years –

has it been that long ?

We have been tending our gardens –

for twelve months a year –

inside and outside !

We grow what we eat

Welcome to Papa’s World –

today –

what we grow

what we harvest

what we eat !

Our TOWER GARDENS

Somewhere in this jungle are TWO TOWER GARDENS !

And this is after Sherry pruned a lot off !

We are ankle deep in squash –

and tons of tomato’s –

We have eaten all our lettuce – since May 1st.

And we are replanting them – eight pods !

Celery

Yes – we even grow Celery and Beets !

Our growing season is a full twelve months –

because at the end of November –

We take these down – clean up –

soak them for two days in vinegar and water

And plant in our inside Tower Garden we have in the garage!

Thus – we eat twelve months of the year fresh –

no pesticide Produce !

Open pods for more lettuce

The main chore you have to do – is make sure water is in the base !

In the heat wave of Summer – I add water each day –

and only rarely do I add the Nutrients !

I have a RV filter on my water hose –

And now I do not even test the PH !

We have installed as a company – THOUSANDS of Tower Gardens –

across the United States –

In the schools –

With a developed curriculum –

( most schools have money for such projects )

In schools to teach children in a hands on gardening

to grow their own food !

My wife’s ( Sherry ) team –

called TEAM GENERATIONS

has been responsible

for the installation of over 100 Tower Gardens in our NVA area !

Early morning light

Our success in growing has been where we grow them –

catching the first morning rays of the Sun –

and there after another 4 to 6 hours.

Half way through May

As the Tower Gardens looked three weeks after planting –

As they look today – 7-22-19

Eating healthy – knowing what you eat – no pesticides –

growing with no weeds –

no dirt –

just water –

air and nutrients –

Teaching in the classroom with hands on growing food –

THE TOWER GARDEN – part of the JUICE PLUS FAMILY !
