I'm going to cover my balcony in elevated earth and then farm 900kg of potatoes in the city! Why aren't you using your...

I don't own the basement room below. Legally I don't own this balcony.

Aww that’s cute, user thinks he’s farming!

You're gonna dow Jones your balcony

>There is basement room below. How much weight can you put on a concrete ceiling?
Probably not very much, even reinforced with rebar. I wouldn’t put the weight of a car on it that’s for sure

Go get 'em you rebel.

It's just a stupid thing to not consider, and if you didn't consider that there's probably other things you didn't consider.
You'd be better off bulding a few potato stacks anyway. You don't need that much dirt.

>a ton of weight
user I hope you don't mean literally a metric ton, or maybe I'm the retarded one here

can you farm opium?

you're kidding right? they build parking garages out of reinforced concrete

I want to copy OP picrel 20 times (I have a large bacony) It's 100kg each. Won't the weight get redistributed?

SAD

Poppys grow petty well even in england so shouldnt be a problem in usa either

I have about a third of an acre of plantable land.

Bought seed potatoes and various seeds before this kicked off, but couldn't get heirloom. And have no gardening experience.

Pray that I can make it work and keep my family fed, anons. Godspeed.

You have the internet to fucking learn you dumb burger. Don't waste your bandwidth for shitposting and learn for fuck's sake. It is better to fail than not trying at all.

Potatoes are fucking easy, you literally just throw them 6 inches underground. Depending on what else you purchased it could be more challenging. Youtube is your friend.

Can you not see the crack in the concrete?

You should grow sweet potatoes, you only need 1 sweet potato and you can keep harvesting slip and slip from it, each slip will create a new plant. You can end up with like 20 plants from 1 sweet potato as opposed to needing a bunch of regular seed potatoes

No one here knows the construction of your balcony. How many supports, how far apart, how much rebar.
The weight distribution doesn't matter much if the whole thing is held up on a single pillar (not that that's likely, just the most extreme example)

>bouquet sweet potato on the left
So fancy!

based and potatopilled

It's literaly the same commie design used in polish commieblocks for 50 years. Any polish architects on Yas Forums?

>not mates, onions and peppers

ur fine bro

It's at least a start.
Make sure you have a few holes punched in the bottom of those containers user. You don't want those roots to rot.

That balcony is big enough for heckin chikerinos.

This is by far above and beyond any dumb shit people have posted here. Tell me you haven't begun the process yet user. That balcony wont be able to hold that much weight ya tard brain

Impulsive and spirited count for something, Joe Biden calls it "Gumption".

Most balconies during the commie era and today are built to handle big-ass weights. People are making swimming pools at their balconies for decades here. If I would be OP I would care more about gypsies/homeless stealing your shit.

Not a crack, that is where concrete panels connect. You can see it better here False.

So then no it will not hold the weight lol

By the way most commie-era balconies/loggias are built to hold AT LEAST around 400kg/m2. They will of course hold way bigger weight, but someone could bother you if you do that. Your 900kg is virtually nothing.

Hey internets police, this guy right here, he will should be held accountable when this idiot collapses a portion of his building killing the inhabitants below his living quarters. Yes this fag right here.

see

Why would polish niggers steal my potatos and risk dying for ... potatoes?

Anyway, if OP really wants to calm down this American sissy itt, he should ask his building owner/building society/collective. They will have this kind of information on paper. Some buildings have the documentation available on hall/corridors on notice boards. But like I said, it's gonna be ~400kg/m2, if not more.

I've been watching and reading a ton, fren, but it doesn't totally replace real experience.

That's what I've heard. I'm a potato nigger so it works out.

Good call.

You're going to collapse your balcony onto your neighbors likely killing yourself or someone else, or both.

What's up with mutts itt being afraid of this nonsense? Do you usually live in flimsy-ass buildings that can't hold some weight?
See

there is a easy test you can do to see if your balcony can support the weight.
put a mc donalds sign on it and wait. after around 30min the first americans should appear. if your balcony can hold 5 americans at the same time, it will hold 1ton of weight easily.

If you have limited space you'd be better off gerry-rigging some aquaponics. You can do a small amount of liquids across a large area, if you keep on it daily for water replacement.
This will get you root crops like carrots and beets and radishes, and vines like tomatoes when it's warn, without the weight.
Plumbing supply in Poland should sell everything you need. In fact, because you're new to the process, I suggest setting up two smaller systems with two different holding tanks so you can't fuck up everything if you add too much fertilizer.

I personally worked in insurance claims. I see dumb faggots who are sure shit will work break things all the time cause they don't work like that, or they're too old to work like that.
So yeah, balconies aren't made to be gardens, water is heavy as fuck, really quickly.

Would aquaponics work if set up outside? Somewhat worried people are more likely to thieve that than a bin of tatties.

>I'm going to cover my balcony in elevated earth

sounds a bad idea structurally

Yes. Your pre-tank filter will need cleaning more often, and you will almost certainly get more algae growth.
And yes, if you live with niggers, it might disappear, both equipment and foods.

I guess you could build two patchess, one on each side.
follow a regular elevated patch tutorial but build the exterior from sheet metal.
weld everything to the railing

I already told you, his place will hold 400kg/m2 minimum. Shitload of people here grow stuff on balconies here. Many go for a limit by making a fucking pool out of their balconies, which is something I wouldn't recommend at all (usually putting around 900kg/m2) but it's still fine and done for decades.

He could do a nice four step dance, up there too, maybe a good German Clog Hop?

I've got nogs for neighbours but they're two fairly personable middle aged women. Would be much better if I could grow them under a non-conspicuous cover inside what could be mistake for a bike shed or something. But that's turning it into a bit of a hassle.

No you're just a moron who thinks commie era concrete that is over 60 years old will hold the weight of a car when the soil is dry and two cars when the soil is wet and the potatoes are fully grown. You're a mouth breathing retard giving someone advice over the internet that could be potentially fatal. Cunts like you need to die out already.

You're gonna walk out to the world turning into you being covered by your dirt as you fall to your broken neck and/or your stomach pierced with lumber.
Those are not built for wet soil.

Commie era concrete is stronk.

Sorry, but they were not planned to withold such loads, be careful you'll kill your neighbours.

If they can't access your balcony (don't count on that), you could consider running some screen across the barely open door, and run the pumps inside and climb the assembly up the walls. You could actually get a pretty good trickle-down flow going like that. Honestly, the pumps are like US $20. The equipment is normally a metal, like a gutter aluminum, but in a pinch you could use a coated sealed wood run. If you have metal thieves, it might be the end.
Some of the stand-up versions wouldn't be easy to disassemble, and you might be able to bolt them down in some fashion.

Are you burgers retarded? I live on ground floor.

>old shit made by commies is strong
shut the fuck up kid, adults are talking.
