Aww sweetie, the sun is the other way
Lol the gourd family has you covered there! Grow a loofah! Grow a tea cup! Grow a birdhouse!
Glad to hear that. My first one is almost ready I got a late start. Can’t wait to taste that beefsteak
Look at this weirdo!
Poor little guy! I don’t think you can do anything
Did your tomatoes make it?
Sorry I don’t know but I think you can get away with it. You would want to start them probably within 4 weeks, and yes use the row cover.
Ohh it’s hail! I looked at the picture before I read and I was thinking blight. I think it’s going to survive. There’s still plenty of hot summer left. Cut off the dead stuff, give a good dose of fertilizer and keep it watered. Looks like it’s watered now so I think ya it’s going to be fine.
It looks really nice and easy to manage. I’m glad to not have the Bermuda grass here but we have our own issues. Like blackberries and knotweed. Now can you walk through that hoop? And how do you use it? Is there a plastic cover for it? I love how you have opted for food instead of lawn too I wanted to say.
Mushrooms are just so neat. I’ve inoculated a log with oysters but haven’t seen any yet.
Do you really have that much mulch? The other day I was watering and I realized that the bark mulch was hydrophobic and not letting any moisture in at all. Internet said I had applied it too think maybe. So I pulled off most of it. Watered the dirt directly and immediately noticed a change in my plants. I thought bark mulch would be such a benefit but really maybe not. In the veggie beds I only use straw which seems to do a lot better but obviously doesn’t look so great for the flower beds. What kind of mulch do you use and are you having that issue at all?
That’s a great sign to see. Congratulations on your first garden! Can’t wait to see those cherry tomatoes when they ripen
Yes about methane and also that forests get cut down to make space for pasture.
If everyone switched to EV cars there would surely be fewer emissions from motors but that would not be the only issue. One is the mining of metals for batteries and the cars themselves. That process, along with shipping parts around produces greenhouse gasses and environmental harm. Then consider that we are not removing carbon nor does EV cars combat the largest sources of greenhouse gases like coal/ natural gas, textile manufacturing, concrete, shipping, and beef. Additionally, the EVs need electricity to charge and if everyone on earth today switched to EVcars many of those would end up being powered by the coal power plants (although it would be a more efficient use of fossil fuel).
Electric vehicles are great and should be used. They do come with their own set of environmental problems to consider. It also worth noting that production and consumption of vehicles and everything else on the planet needs to slow. We simply have too many people doing too much. So if you have an old gas powered car that still runs, don’t throw it out to buy a new EV.
Lol it wasn’t me but it does sound like me
For sure! Just DM me the address. I’m so glad to be sharing seeds!
Hey it’s also important to prepare ourselves for a changing climate so thank you for sharing.
Want to hear something to make your blood boil? COP28 is being held in UAE and run by an oil tycoon
What are these online thrift stores? I’d like to check that out
Great idea with the reusable containers
These are great steps and I love that they’re not mega lifestyle changes but easy to do and make work for you. I’ve been eating less beef too. Not none, but less. And I’ve got a little idea been bouncing in my head for a while: Guinea pigs. They are common food in South America. They eat almost anything, take very little space, and I’ve never tried one but I gotta admit they look tasty and they are very sustainable. I’m probably going to catch hate for saying that but damnit they’re trying to convince us to eat bugs!
As Thrawn pointed out, that offer is in the instance sidebar and not the community sidebar. Maybe that’s why nobody has seen it! Omg NataliePortland get it together! Y’all DM your address
I don’t grow it, but I have had two friends eat them and they described absolutely horrific hallucinations
