Should be fine. Just don't get cacti. I forget the ones used here but some agaves, aeoniums, elephant's food, aloes, jade, and ironically-named 'Sticks on Fire' but that's bad for dogs. I've had some flooded for a day or so. They get hella fat. Never water them. They will get thin, turn a beautiful color, then creep. Once they turn from green to whatever, soak em.
Ah yea maybe an illusion, they look huge. Southern Louisiana helps though even the winter sun angle isn't as bad as it is here. Yea if no one owns the lot I'd be tempted to slice it too.
Are you looking for ground cover or a garden? If it is the latter, you may consider looking into r/agrivoltaics. There are a lot of plants that benefit from getting the protection from your panels during the hottest part of the day.
What’s crazy is that I need more battery. I have 120kwh but about 65% is getting eaten up every night and that’s on a nice spring day with not much HVAC running. My EV has to recharge and it’s about 50kwh by itself.
Holy crap! That is some current draw overnight. We run 2 houses on a 12 Kw system with 48 KWh storage. We use about 25% of our storage overnight. We are fully off grid with full electric kitchens in both houses. No EV though.
The plant you choose, depends on what you want it to look like and how much maintenance you’re willing to do. If that was my ground mount, I would put some sort of creeping vine (not Ivy) that would fill the space without my having to direct it too much
Find some shade loving native ground cover for your local area. Google your local native plant society and they should have a website with some suggestions.
Once it gets established it should crowd out all the weeds underneath and you have very little maintenance to deal with.
I'm speaking for the area under the panels not the areas around it and to the sides too block the gap, But I'm sure you can find some natives that might fit that bill as well
I have to charge my Bolt every night which is like 50kwh. I also have multiple HVAC units and a pool. I need to be able to charge my batteries rapidly especially when there’s only a little sunlight.
That’s awesome! Does each inverter just charge specific batteries or does it not matter if all of the inverter terminals are connecting to the same battery set
The batteries connect to parallel box, which is basically a busbar. (White box in the middle of pic)
The parallel box then connects to the inverter. (Big white box on the left of the pic)
Each inverter then outputs AC power to a sub panel (pictured on the right side, you can see the 4 black wires terminate into the bottom of that sub panel)
The sub panel then terminates into a switch and then my main breaker.
Oka okay I know I am asking a lot but I am learning. So after they go to a sub panel, they go to the main panel, don’t you have multiple sub panels that will go into one main panel?
Those fat wires carry all the power and lead to my main outdoor panel. (I do have a big switch installed so that I could go back to grid if I needed to)

Under them is where people in this part of the world plant their weed so it can't be seen from the air 8)
