oh how beautiful!! so pretty
The seedlings are growing and the big red furball āhelpsā sorting the seed batches.
Please note that this chilli seedling has been nibbled by Schimanski. The seedling is pretty unimpressed
Calling fellow gardeners to share
The jalapenos and physalis grew quite big since repotting them 2 weeks ago.
The old seed batches I sowed sprout in a variety from nope - we are dead to yes, still quite ok. Iāll get a great mix of veggies this year with some surprises as Iām pretty sure some seeds are not the plants written on the bag
Of course the big red furball is always around
omgomgomgomgomg! You leased a piece of land, @Pandita! Exciting!
If youāre up for it, please post pics here.
I will start my seedlings soon for my wee planter box garden. Spring comes late in Canada, short and sweet growing season! @erntedank, I usually have to rehome some tomato seedlingsā¦ will you have any room?
Plenty of room here, tomatoes always welcome
My seedlings have their first night out on the balcony today. Maybe I need full replacement tomorrow
Yessss, I am super exited as well! Itās actually a really tiny piece of land in pizza slice shape. So I guess itās more like urban farming, but none the less, I already love it. Gonna send pictures once the peas and cucumbers and everything goes into the ground. Tomatoes are always welcome .
Yes, you gardening folks. Share pictures. Iām not the gardening type - had enough of farm work for my whole life - but I love to see things sprout and grow
Iām a bit late on the thread here. But Weāre usually planting pumpkins every year, and have done for years. Making an even bigger land this year with the goal of making a Halloween pumpkin patch.
My best tips,donāt plant them to close to anything, give them space to climb and make sure that the pumpkins doesnāt lay right on the ground because if itās to wet they will be rotten.
Pumpkins can handle some frostbite but to many frosty nights will make them bad. If thereās risk for frost or snow you can harvest and take green pumpkins inside and put them on newspapers, in a window sill to ripe.
Good luck
Oh, pics of a pumpkin patch would be amazing too! Iām guessing that you, like me here in , have some snow that needs melting before planting can begin?
About 50 cm of snow.
And thereās more to come.
April here started with a blizzard
Finished shoveling rock and some dirt this last weekend! This is my first year in my new house and I am so excited to finally have my garden. I look forward to sharing progress as the season progresses. I have a bunch of plants started and will be doing 6 types of wild hot peppers.
Lovely fellow garden folks, here the season is fully on
Meet the herbs I ordered in february:
Approximately two weeks until Iāll plant them, I need them to grow a bit more before.
Today is Sunday. Cats & me are chillaxing on the sofa and on the balcony among the veggy seedlings
What herbs have you planted?
cats have the best seats Are they inspecting the progress?
@JazzyS They are inspecting everything, from the breadcrumbs left on the floor from yesterdayās guests to the empty pots Iām glad they leave the veggies alone.
@acromouse I have a bunch of lavender, 50 monardas, some salvia, alant, thyme, comfrey, gentian, milfoil. Sure I forgot two or three herbs. They go either into the dry stone wall my ex still fumbles around to create a green gratitude wall (have to look up who had this marvellous idea here on TS!) or on a hill under my balcony. I will post pictures galore about how these projects will be going
Iām very much looking forward to seeing the progress on your projects. What is a gratitude wall?
A bit to early, but Iām optimistic and hope thereāll be no more frozen grounds and snow.
Re-planted our strawberry plants from the garden bed to garden pots today. The weather before lunch was amazing. And then it started to rain
I also cleared the garden bed from weeds, and poured in extra soil which was needed. Then I decided that Iām not going to keep the garden bed where it is, but move it and make a gravel pat where it currently is instead
Not sure if this goes in the gardening thread, it is for the garden so il stick it here
Panel 1 for the catio, ready to be painted on a day when there is no rain. ( Built indoors so the wood stays dry ready to paint ) And add mesh.
Debating wether to start panel 2 yetā¦ or wait until tomorrow as it will be easier now iv made one.
So yes this is for the cats itās going to be so big and Iām excited.
@Dazercat thought Iād tag you
