Have a shit ton of weeds outside my new apartment. Landlord is cutting them once, but then it's my responsibility. What can I use to permanently get rid of them and get a small farm going

DDT and cement after youve uprooted everything (a "hula-hoe" is the most effective tool I've found for this as long as it's bare soil and no large rocks). I highly doubt you'll ever have to do lawn care ever again. You'll never be able to farm the land, but if you're willing to farm that involves pulling weeds too so why worry about how to do it quickly? An environment good for growing crops is amazing for growing weeds haha. Can't have one without the other, unless you contact Monsanto and fuck the entirety of organic life as we know it after they get their patented seeds out.

Autumn for sure

Winter is the best when it snows, but in the UK it hasn't properly snowed for years. It's so depressing.

>>1079042
Actually it's not at all. People tend to stay home if it's grey, so it's all yours.

So, objectively, late fall and winter are best.

I bring pipe/tobacco, a tablet for reading, and I recently bought one of those UCO candle lanterns which I actually really like. Negligible size and weight, nostalgic, and you get both heat and light from it.

>Twelve teams of federal agents, including a SWAT team, carried out operations on 12 properties confiscating Indian artifacts

>Love ordered a subordinate to remove Moqui marbles from his agency's evidence room — marbles that were part of a criminal investigation after being illegally removed from a national park five years earlier.

>Some ancient cultures believe Moqui marbles have mystical and healing qualities. They contain a sandstone center encased in an iron oxide shell and are found in many of Utah's national parks, including Zion. They are named after the Moqui Indians and used by some tribes to communicate with their ancestors.

>The report on Love's handling of the criminal evidence goes on to detail that more than 80 five-gallon buckets contained thousands of the marbles — with a retail value of up to $520,000 — that were stored in an evidence room in Salt Lake City. During the inventory, according to the report, Love told three employees they could take one to display on their desks.

>During the counting, Love also told the employee to remove three or four of the "best" marbles from evidence to give to him, the report says

Hi,
I'm looking for and advice how to protect yourself and equipment from rain. How to put up tent, light fire. How to dry stuff while you're in the middle of a hike and it has rained for days and doesn't seem to stop.
All things related with dealing with rainy weather and still keeping as comfy as possible.

hey /out/!

I love the outdoors, going on walks, very soothing and all that. I love coming across old packs that I pitch on these public campgrounds in this national park area, each is an old story. I just wanted to ask, though, is there an ideal spot for me to just pitch these? Like will trees eventually make use of the degradable material better, or am I better off just pitching it in a lake like I do sometimes? Just want some advice before I head out again.

Can I still pitch my tunneltent if the elastic in one of the three fiberglass poles has snapped while on a trip? I imagine it would be a bitch (keeping pressure on to prevent the sections disconnecting) but still possible. I need to know because one elastic thingy is starting to fray and I am too cheap/stupid to replace it and secretly want things to go wrong.

The bike or the tent? :^)
>>
>>1090093
Depends on the tent. One of mine broke during a bicycle tour and I ended up finding a ~8 inch long metal rod by the side of the road and attaching it with zip-ties. It worked for a couple weeks until I could get the manufacturer to send new poles to a town I passed through.

After that, I bought a tent repair kit which now lives with my other tools. It has some appropriately sized tubes, along with some chunks of waterproof fabric and mesh.

Check out the Hubba Hubba by MSR, it's the best two person tent I've ever used. The double vestibule and extra anchor points make it even better.

GF and I are wanting to go camping for Labor Day weekend (both have 4 days off).
I grew up glamping--pop up camper with a/c, vidya, etc-- but have gotten into outdoorsy stuff as I got older. She did tent camping as a kid.

Problem is I want to go innawoods and only bring what we can carry on our backs. She wants a nice prepared campsite or cabin with running water, keep coolers in the car, etc.

I feel like we're going to go to a campsite and I'll just limit myself to my bag. Suggestions for some sort of compromise? If it helps, we're out of Missouri, so there isn't really any forest or true wilderness near us.

Unless you have everything you need for backpacking, I'd just do things her way.

It takes a lot of specific stuff to backpack. You can get by with the bare minimum backpacking, but since neither of you are experienced, you're better off car camping. Backpacking takes a while to figure out what you like, what you need, and what you don't need.

Car camping you can just bring anything and everything. It's much easier.

Find a nice secluded campground with showers. She will thank you for hot running water. You can camp out, cook good food on a small grill, chill out with some beers around the fire, and fuck in a tent. It'll be a good time.

During the days you can do innawoods shit. Go on some day hikes, bring a small pack. Find some nice hikes and explore. Mayne bring a hammock for a mid day nap.

Maybe rent or borrow some kayaks one day as well.

At the end of the day, you'll have a comfortable base camp to come back to.

I wouldn't go backpacking unless you're both on a same page. To be honest, a 4 day backpacking trip, for someone who has no experience backpacking, is a little too much. If you want to learn to backpack with her, start small and do some overnights 1st. For this weekend though, stick to car camping.

Great board but I'm interested specifically in getting /out/'s take on the craft - I know a lot of people here like to whittle in camp. A lot of bushcrafting techniques require solid carving skills as well.
