#13 small winter update

2024-2-8

i am not ready… remaking the blog to be static md instead.

this was ditched because

  • my db which connected to phone app broke, domain update perma-broke it. i never bothered fixing
  • the summer was mostly rain and grey skies. no motivation.

anyways
i need to:

  • buy seeds, flowers, fruit plants
  • clean seed trays, pots, propagator trays
  • buy new propagator, potting soil
  • finish this site, update it more often
  • plot 2023 data somewhere..

>>8 says the tomatos were 3 weeks too early. according to the db it was feb 25th
need to decide if i can trust my old selfs judgement..
if its poor weather, theyll need more time.

#9 small summer update

2023-6-8

i repotted the tomatos and had them come in and out each day. theyre doing fine. the compost this year sucks.

spinach was removed yesterday and replaced with runner beans.

the chilis have small flowers.

butternut squashes: 2 outdoor ones (2 dif varieties) both remain quite small, vs the spare, which i put in a bucket in the greenhouse. the first has a couple of fruits on it though

noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

the tomatos are at least 3 weeks too early.

theyre too large in their pots. but there’s frost next week so they can’t be planted outside yet.

ill remember this for next time

apparently you arent supposed to plant leeks outside until theyre tall and sturdy…

#5 sun flowers

2023-3-24

planted 20 pots of sunflowers yesterday. the seeds were saved from one of the old sunflowers from last year. most of them became moldy because of how wet it was, but the seeds i saved were the ones that felt solid. i put 2 per pot just to be safe, and ive got more seeds than i can use anyway.

#4 potato

2023-3-15

planted some potatoes, first early “swift” variety.

its too early because the frost is all around, but they’ll be safe deep underground for a few weeks.

by the time they reach the surface the frost will be gone.

..i hope

>>2

the squashies have been separated.

they look happy in their new (temporary) homes

yesterday i removed the brussels because they were seedtray neighbours with chillies. one requires tons of heat and the other will go leggy with heat.. sorry brussels.

the chilis havent germanated yet either
