i had a friend in Ka`u at one time doing raised bed grows. he had a large greenhouse and did all of his pakalolo in the raised beds. they would be totally off the ground in rows and were like 2-4 feet thick, you could see under the beds/open space. i wish i had some pix so could illustrate better, but he used the shade cloth underneath so that the water would be able to flow thru. some of the largest plants i have ever personally seen as the sativas would just use as much space as they wanted. he had trouble keeping things small lol. good luck pepper, looks like the west side :) aloha
I totally get what your saying and thats a great idea, I just wonder how he set up his shadecloth without ripping it..did he just put it between 2x4's and screw them together? Good idea..but i dont know if it would be possible to make with the plastic timber i want to use.

Know a guy in Ka'u who does it OV style. Takes pallets, and stacks em 2-4 pallets high and connects them, removes the inner boards and wraps the pallets in shadecloth and puts em up on a tire....works killer, but ya gotta water them choke which is the point I think....

Get Honoli'i just north of Hilo and get the little wave right in the bayfront that was going off the other day, but Pohoikis is out Puna side, ya might have passed it if you went beachside down to Kalapana.

had kohones, lol. past tense. they when kinda shrink a little as I got older. hahahahaha
LMAO!! Well then, Honoli'i, that place you passed that had breaks left and right would be perfect I think, pretty crowded though if you go 15 miles down the road you'll hit "Hakalau" which is much more secluded, and private. Real nice beach. . .

Cops finally left about a week and half ago, but they put up a big gate and we have to walk in now. Thanks Billy!

I've been to beach parks on all the islands, not one park was as clean as Uncle kept Kawa'a. Got alot of love for that man, had plenty safety meeting with him.
