Keeping bees in horizontal hives and avoiding traders/scammers who want to โ€œteachโ€ me to make money. BTC ONLY! Also, no responses or attention given to snarky, obviously alt/anon/attention seeking profiles... just block and move on. If you don't comment with a real profile, sorry but I don't have time for you.
#GMnostr #truckstr Yesterday was 77F in Denver, CO... Today we get this! Ugg ๐Ÿ™„๐Ÿคฃ image
#GMnostr #truckster going to need to tweak it more, but can already tell it helps! ๐Ÿ˜ image
#homesteading #GMnostr new addition to the farm... Gravity drain diesel tank, cost $240 including new hose and filter. Coop wanted to raise rental of the white barrel to $135/year image
#GMnostr pretty day starting off here in #Missouri! Got 5 horses visiting... And their Amish owners, putting gutters on the shop finally as well as a second downspout on the back of the house. Got the 4" drain tubing to move the water away from the shop and the patio. One day I plan to switch to rain catchment, but for now this is the plan. Sounds like I mauly be able to get a 15,000 concrete cistern delivered and installed for aroung $5-6k, so a goal for the future along with the solar array getting installed! #homesteading ๐Ÿ˜Š image
#GMnostr #beestr Am excited that in about 2-3 weeks will be arriving flat packed kits for 2 more hives and 2 large swarm traps! At $350/hive and $80 per trap, I can barely buy the materials now to make them for that price! Each kit is CNC cut and includes frames, doors, etc. Everything but the stainless wire to string the frames and the tin sheeting for the roof flashing. Plus, made out of cabinet grade plywood, so should all have a tight fit and look really nice. I will try to post pics of the builds... ๐Ÿ˜ #honeythread
#GMnostr #truckstr First delivery in Indiana, on my last day with this company! Next week brings changes, so hopefully we can once again have chickens! โค๐Ÿ˜ image
#GNnostr #permies #homesteading second burn of the biochar retort... Beautiful to see it burn at night! Feel a bit easier about no fires since wife already started a grass fire earlier and blackened all around here. Sadly, it also got into about 10 rows of saplings planted last year, so we'll see how many survive... ๐Ÿ˜ฎ๐Ÿ™„๐Ÿ˜ฅ Here are a few bones and partial deer skull to cook tonight. A couple large ribs, leg bones and shoulderblades too!
#homesteading #GMnostr #frens Having had 50-60+ weather the last several daysvor more, today has gotten chilly and suppised to have about 10F lows the next two days or so before returning to 60-70+! Oh boy... ๐Ÿ™„๐Ÿ˜œ๐Ÿ˜‚
#GMnostr #homesteading #Missouri after a second burn, the soon to be #biochar looks excellent, very high quality! Still neefs crushing and charging, for innoculation, but I am very stoked! Also, last night, we did a presentation on natural #beekeeping before the county's council, the University of Missouri Extension folks, and some local bank officials, plus over Zoom our districts MO state representative! Very erll received, new contacts made, and even have info coming about some Hives For Heroes program ran by the U of M (I think!) ๐Ÿ˜ image
#truckstr part two! Some cool canyon pics today too. ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜
#GMnostr #truckstr #trucking An exciting drive this morning and afternoon through WY and UT! I-80 shut down from Evanston, WY to Lyman, WY... So, detoured South at Lyman and added about 120 miles to our trip. Gorgeous scenery though!!! May post a followup with a few more pics. Got here safe to first farm, about 5 hours later than planned...but, safe.
#biochar #permaculture #homesteading Loaded my homemade retort for the first time today. About 32F and windy! Hoping to do well with the 30 gallon inside drum loosely packed with bones, cow skulls and antlers, chunks of wood under 18" long up to about 2x6 size... Will post results but may be in a few days!
#GMnostr #truckstr #trucking Today's morning view is in Nevada, a bit South of Winnemucca on I-80. Kind of a neat view of the mountains and clouds, current temp is 50F here in the desert! image
#GMnostr Pretty day in Iowa, heading for California! Not a cloud in the sky, 61F outside... #trucking image
