Last Notes npub10w3n549n5eukjs6lkvqvc6qata93a6pxtm8z9vvteqp0yqlfzpps8cptpk Malka Beth not much if any real difference here in the Great plains (5°F tops in my area), which is why today I was just driving to a few stores & when I got home new better than to even try to unload the mulch & wood pickets from the car today. npub10w3n549n5eukjs6lkvqvc6qata93a6pxtm8z9vvteqp0yqlfzpps8cptpk Malka Beth hmm the Huazontle looks like a good possibility to add to a home hydroponically grown list, especially good for if I can't fit enough broccoli outside in the winter. npub10w3n549n5eukjs6lkvqvc6qata93a6pxtm8z9vvteqp0yqlfzpps8cptpk Malka Beth Some pictures of my #tomato, #cucumber & #TigerLilly plants mostly, with a little Sage & comfrey likewise visible (*I'll edit later for more detailed image descriptions.) npub10w3n549n5eukjs6lkvqvc6qata93a6pxtm8z9vvteqp0yqlfzpps8cptpk Malka Beth aaaaaw! npub10w3n549n5eukjs6lkvqvc6qata93a6pxtm8z9vvteqp0yqlfzpps8cptpk Malka Beth good to know they can last that long without rotation, as I did want to setup a little steady nook of my gardens for some rhubarb plants. Strawberry Rhubarb pie being a favorite of mine, so I may set some Strawberry plants for rotation near them. npub10w3n549n5eukjs6lkvqvc6qata93a6pxtm8z9vvteqp0yqlfzpps8cptpk Malka Beth The thing about the artistic combination sets that makeup all music, is how very diverse it is and within that how it really doesn't matter what it is, there will always be a sizable number of people who minimally like, if not love it! Different tastes in music thusly aren't a character flaw, rather they're a feature of music itself. npub10w3n549n5eukjs6lkvqvc6qata93a6pxtm8z9vvteqp0yqlfzpps8cptpk Malka Beth we had about 15°F more than you did in my area this morning, but I wouldn't exactly call that "tropical". npub10w3n549n5eukjs6lkvqvc6qata93a6pxtm8z9vvteqp0yqlfzpps8cptpk Malka Beth I'd offer some of mine but not for how badly my home is sealed up, or more accurately not, against the cold & we've only got about 30 more than you do. This weekend it also may get here to what you've got now, hence my repair efforts today & tomorrow. npub10w3n549n5eukjs6lkvqvc6qata93a6pxtm8z9vvteqp0yqlfzpps8cptpk Malka Beth it's on my list for doing within the next year, including getting a static IP address as I believe that's a requirement for a durable setup. npub10w3n549n5eukjs6lkvqvc6qata93a6pxtm8z9vvteqp0yqlfzpps8cptpk Malka Beth I only push away the ones directly on the concrete footpaths I use at this time of year & beyond that wait until the following spring to pull back any remaining wherever I'm putting in new seedlings, as beyond the wildlife & natural biomes overall, I just view it as a waste of my very limited energy. npub10w3n549n5eukjs6lkvqvc6qata93a6pxtm8z9vvteqp0yqlfzpps8cptpk Malka Beth 1. They make me feel more connected to the world in a calming way, be it when I walk on them in my bare feet in the spring, summer & sometimes a little of autumn, or when I'm pruning smaller trees now or climbing large ones as a kid or planting & harvesting mostly edible ones now. It's also how their growth rates match my speed & amount of movement seasonally, winter being when I can barely move even with my forearm crutches, wrist & knee braces, summer when I can often walk a few miles every day it's not raining & in effect do so, without more than using a long handled tool as a cane a bit. npub10w3n549n5eukjs6lkvqvc6qata93a6pxtm8z9vvteqp0yqlfzpps8cptpk Malka Beth Thinking at this point of direct seeding some brassicas and using more sweet potato slips to keep away the weeds....or at least to fill a seed starting Tray or 2 that I can bottom water npub10w3n549n5eukjs6lkvqvc6qata93a6pxtm8z9vvteqp0yqlfzpps8cptpk Malka Beth thanks for helping on a plant identity. I saw something about 14 hours ago in my front yard that I sort of recognized but forgot the name of .. namely bluebells. npub10w3n549n5eukjs6lkvqvc6qata93a6pxtm8z9vvteqp0yqlfzpps8cptpk Malka Beth @npub1v5a…ny6w Finally starting to see my #potatoes with some stems coming up sizably from the ground, which means it's past time to plant the rest of them. #FoodGrowing #Gardening npub10w3n549n5eukjs6lkvqvc6qata93a6pxtm8z9vvteqp0yqlfzpps8cptpk Malka Beth (You mistook "seed" for "plant" in my post above.) With thinning & germination rates rarely being above 90% - what 20 seeds would yield would be about 3-6 plants per variety, with my generally planting at least 10, often about 15 of each variety, which is why anything under about 60 seeds just doesn't make sense. npub10w3n549n5eukjs6lkvqvc6qata93a6pxtm8z9vvteqp0yqlfzpps8cptpk Malka Beth Spending significant time combining seed packets because the very idea that whenever I put in seeds to start, that it's ever as few as 20 seeds at once is rather comical, especially on things like tomatoes & cucumbers & because having many seed packets makes them harder to store. #Gardening npub10w3n549n5eukjs6lkvqvc6qata93a6pxtm8z9vvteqp0yqlfzpps8cptpk Malka Beth @npub1v5a…ny6w The topic here is #DisabilityAccessibility within the realm of gardening. What you describe won't really aid disabled people in said arena but will add financial costs & time into regular seed planting. npub10w3n549n5eukjs6lkvqvc6qata93a6pxtm8z9vvteqp0yqlfzpps8cptpk Malka Beth @npub1v5a…ny6w Seed tape is meant as a convenience method, to evenly plant seeds without a machine. npub10w3n549n5eukjs6lkvqvc6qata93a6pxtm8z9vvteqp0yqlfzpps8cptpk Malka Beth @npub1v5a…ny6w #DisabilityAccessibility npub10w3n549n5eukjs6lkvqvc6qata93a6pxtm8z9vvteqp0yqlfzpps8cptpk Malka Beth I really love to use all 3 of these entities, but view them as different in main purposes. #JohnnySeeds is for things I want to grow in large quantities outside, to replace grocery store staples. #Fedco is for diversity of tastes and colors, at good & ethical prices, that's stable in it's general midrange production. The experimental network is where I find the niche items that I can use & mix around for my #DisabilityAccessibility needs, as I try different growing methods with their items. npub10w3n549n5eukjs6lkvqvc6qata93a6pxtm8z9vvteqp0yqlfzpps8cptpk Malka Beth they're solid, but for more variations, as you help support Coop practices- I'd give #fedco at least a good look npub10w3n549n5eukjs6lkvqvc6qata93a6pxtm8z9vvteqp0yqlfzpps8cptpk Malka Beth Potato onions & Egyptian walking #onions are both in this category. The former you breakup the bulbs, similar to many flowers,to harvest some & continue by replanting the rest. The later you can both breakup the bulbs in the ground or take the top parts/topsets & either harvest & eat them or plant them to grow more.
