What is this? Some kind of #seeds / #pollen that has been blowing about the entire yard the whole day - it made me cough and I even had to abandon valeting the interior of a recently purchased fleet car (as it was pointless trying to hoover the carpets as it was entering the car in some quantity). What tree/plant is it from?
Ach Mist… ganz vergessen. Ich soll tatsächlich für einen Freund mal nachfragen, wo man denn am besten #Cannabissamen bestellen kann?
Also: hat da jemand von euch schon gute erfahrungen mit Anbietern gemacht? Wenn ja dann bitte her mit dem Link, danke 😊
Auch wenn's spät war an einem Backtag für meine Verhältnisse, so hat sich die Arbeit gelohnt. Die Saatenkruste schmeckt grandios. Das 550er im Rezept 1:1 durch Ruchmehl 1600 zu ersetzen, war eine gute Sache. Hat das Aroma auf ein ganz anderes Niveau gehoben. Dazu gesellt sich der geschmacksfördernde Effekt von zwei Sauerteigen und einem Klecks Rübenkraut.
Die Kruste mit den vier Saaten (Kürbis, Sonnenblumenkerne, schwarzer Sesam, Leinsaat) macht das Brot wunderbar rustikal und nussig. Die Krume ist schön weich, wattig geradezu. Ein tolles Brot, das in meiner Variante auf die Liste kommt. Und nicht ganz unten. 🙂
I was looking at the spacing instructions for the herbs I planted and noticed spacing instructions for the crops I planted, and I decided that I could start spacing each type of seed out as recommended while still putting all of the seeds in one bed and letting them choose they favorite places to grow instead of me deciding each bed is a monocrop, a couple companions, a crop and a nursing crop, or even a 3 sisters area. #gardening#seeds@gardening
I’m sure many here may know of this, but for those that don’t, here’s a good way to start carrots. They are mixed 1 seed packet in a pre made cornstarch (2tb) to 1 cup water. When cooled, mix in seeds, put in plastic bag, cut one corner, and pipe into shallow “ditch”, cover and water. It helps spread seeds, reducing thinning and keeps seeds moist. I’ve used it on poppy seeds too. #gardening#vegetables#carrot#seeds

Adding 2 new #SnapPea varieties to our #FoodGardens this year. Royal snap(deep burgundy) & honey snap(pale yellow) - both are edible raw or cooked. I have 6 of each in my starter pots & transplanting them into beds today.
My delayed #SaanichOrganics seeds vid will be up later today 👩🌾
After a great little seed swap yesterday, where I met some fine mastodon folks for the first time IRL, I no longer have any excuses to procrastinate and NOT do my raised bed planning for this year 😅 It's like waking up from hibernation, gardening-wise.
Planning fewer tomato plants and in different locations this year due to a fungus incident last year, so we'll see what we end up with. Might try some new things, some of which I suspect I'll have to seed indoors starting next week!
Last October I discovered a Horse Chestnut (Aesculus Hippocastanum if you're fancy) tree in the gardens of a local abandoned house and I realised that there are no broadleaf deciduous trees around here, so, over a few dog walks I collected pockets full of conkers.
Around 80 went into bags and into the fridge to stratify over the winter, and now they are germinating.
We are going to have a lot of Broadleaf deciduous trees around here soon.
Learned last year (too late) that my local #library has a seed “borrowing” programme whereby you can choose a few varieties a year, #plant them, and if you’re successful, commit to bringing some of the #seeds back. #gardening#garden#BlackFriday#food#BlackJoy
#BestOf2024 Instead of waiting for December 2024, scrambling to remember all the good things, all the things that made me happy in 2024, I will try to acknowledge these little moments of happiness as they arise.
I have room for about 5 sweet pea plants. So I started 12. After the purple seeds arrive this weekend I'll start 6 of them, too. (I also transplanted a basil cutting that got accidentally pardoned during pesto-making the other week. I figure since it grew roots, it counts as a new basil.)
This should be exciting. I'm not actually good at this whole garden thing :rick:
At "Seedy Saturday" at the library, put on by the Horticultural Society here. This makes me want badly to be a good gardener, the kind that doesn't just sow seeds and then forget they exist for weeks. My lavender experiment haunts me....
