LallyLuckFarm,

My bad, I have a habit of getting them in a row

LallyLuckFarm,

Homegrown Harvest: a season-by-season guide to a sustainable kitchen garden from the American Horticultural Society is a good one to check out.

LallyLuckFarm,

Busy Friday here. Trying to figure out how much time I can offer this morning at the library (helping local students make a compost pile) before I have to come back and keep working on projects here. But it’s been gray and rainy for several days now and my motivation is not totally present.

Hoping to play a little TOTK this weekend myself, actually. Maybe some time around the fire pit too if the weather is nice enough

LallyLuckFarm,

I hadn’t heard that, but that sounds like a huge missed opportunity. I loved the master sword trials from BOTW and would enjoy having new and more intricate shrine puzzles for the new mechanics

LallyLuckFarm,

whoever planted these was really going wild

Hah that’s going to be my memorial plaque at the farm when I’m gone! I’m glad that native cherry decided to leave you with some offspring that were in a better place for you to enjoy.

LallyLuckFarm,

Very cool! Which varieties of apple did you end up selecting, and have you decided how you’d like to train or manage them?

Yay violets! The tea is nice, and you can also use the flowers in salads for a pop of color. Also, garlic mustard -> violets; pesto, change-o?

LallyLuckFarm,

That sounds like a lovely summer veggie garden, I’m excited to see what you do with them! Small spaces can make it challenging to fit everything but they also make you use the space more creatively, and they look awesome crammed full of plants.

LallyLuckFarm,

I’m very excited to see how this works for you! Wishing you the best luck finding your peppers and remembering to take lots of pictures to share here bee laugh emoji

LallyLuckFarm,

Thank you! The secret is killing a ton of plants until you improve enough to keep them alive, and then killing more until you can keep them happy bee fingerguns emoji

Spider mites are a tricky pest when the plants prefer a dryer soil, but I’ve had some success with a layer of sand on top of the potting mix, which might be worth a try. And there are so many cool varieties of basil that I totally encourage you to try from seed! I know you’re going to have that kitchen garden rocking in no time

LallyLuckFarm,

Here’s a little PDF for you from treesaregood.org about pruning but you should totally make a thread about it ;D

LallyLuckFarm,

Hey good find, thank you!

LallyLuckFarm,

Even here in Maine there are some large subsidies for battery backup systems. The state is even running a program for people who have them, where they can get paid for selling their stored energy during peak usage times.

LallyLuckFarm,

So green and peaceful!

LallyLuckFarm,

What a great shot!

LallyLuckFarm,

That’s exciting! Chilly microclimates can be kind of a bummer when other folks’ plants have bloomed and you’re still waiting, but there’s also that benefit of generally getting growth after the freezes are over.

Thank you for commenting in these threads! I adore hearing what everyone is getting up to in their gardens every week

LallyLuckFarm,

Why do I hear my name being called in the woods? Gray catbirds

LallyLuckFarm,

Forty years living in their range and having a name that sounds like their call, and they are still never my first assumption.

LallyLuckFarm,

Hah it was killer doing a first course of stone for a slope stabilization project but I’ll see what I can do bee fingerguns emoji

I wonder if the neighbors would let me borrow their horse…

LallyLuckFarm,

Something I do when I’m depressed is discount the value of my own accomplishments. When I’m not in those moments, I know that I should be kinder to myself by being proud of what gets accomplished in spite of the depression, but when those times come around again it’s incredibly difficult to follow that advice. I’m really happy that you’re making such strides on the new meds, and hope that you find the space to be happy and proud of that accomplishment. Other people’s milestones don’t detract from the progress you’re making 💕
