tired taters

Recommended Posts

Here's something my redneck friends can appreciate.

 

1. Those old tires lying around, fill them with dirt and compost (cannot recommend dog turds, sorry) and stick a tater in the dirt.

 

2. Pull up a lawn chair, pop open a cold one and watch the magic, you were looking for an excuse to relax. You're now a potato farmer.

 

3. Once the tater sprouts up several inches or a little more than the tread width of your tires, add another tire, more dirt and compost. Pop open more cold ones, life ain't all about work...

 

4. Repeat step 2.....

 

5. Repeat step 2.....

 

6. Repeat steps 2 and 2.

 

7. Repeat steps 2 and 3. By the time the tater plants look like they're ready for a fourth tire, your hard work is over. Knock them tires over, gather up the spuds. Have your wife clean up the mess and bake the taters so she can say she helped too.

 

8. Find a good divorce attorney and join AA.

That's how I do it, it's a lot easier than gettin them out of the ground.

Yup, easier than tossing the tires over the fence at the neighbors yappy mutts, although not as rewarding.

So what else do you Rednecks grow in them tires..... :rolleyes:

carrots, beets, radish, any root veggie. Oh and meth haha

They're also great for raising Skeeter's n black widows, too. Can even catch rain water for them long AZ dry spells. So long as you don't mind your drinking water tasting like rubber bands n fan belts.

It wasn't easy repurposing that old tire, still had some tread left. :(

But I know where its at in case of an emergency.
