How to damage the integrity of your structure

[–] Sestren@lemmy.world 18 points 9 months ago (2 children)

It's Japan. They'll just knock it down and start from scratch in 10 years anyway.

[–] Awesome357@lemmy.world 4 points 9 months ago

Being Japan, the plants might stitch it together for an extra 5 years.

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 4 points 8 months ago

It's Japan - those plants started growing in the late 1970s. It's probably the only thing holding the house together at this point.

What if you didn’t have any integrity to start with?

[–] blanketswithsmallpox@lemmy.world 5 points 9 months ago

I see you've met my ex. Hasn't everyone though?

Well, you're not wrong. Earthquakes tend to dampen real-estate-as-investment.

Do you say this because of the extra weight? Vines/roots damaging stuff? Just curious

[–] solariplex@slrpnk.net 6 points 9 months ago

Climbing vines like that have a tendency to tear into cracks in whatever they're climbing, increasing water ingress. They also tear off the protective layering on brick/concrete walls.

Looks hella dope though🌳

It’s either that or post-apocalyptic, which when u think about it, is kinda the same

[–] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 12 points 9 months ago

Hah, this is more “add jungle” than just “add plants”.

[–] t_berium@lemmy.world 10 points 9 months ago

And invite all the spiders in the entire neighborhood? Thanks, but no thanks.

[–] Grayox@lemmy.ml 7 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Thanks I love it!

I wonder how the neighbors feel about it, and if the closest two ever get any plant visitors occasionally. Lol
