There’s so much to do this time of year that the days are a blur! But my garlic is all planted out now, and I’m working on seed collecting as well. I’ve got my propagation presentation this Monday, sadly light on the memes so far (but working on it, if anyone has asexual-plant-reproduction-adjacent memery to offer).
What’s growing on with you all?
Picked two beautiful yellow raspberries today and I was so excited I ate them immediately and forgot to take a pic hehe
Maybe I’ll clear out my raised bed to plant some winter vegs soon. I just let it grow wild because the extra green looked nice and the bugs love the shade during summer :). I wouldn’t mind taking it back to grow some carrots tho.
All is forgiven, my wife rarely gets any of our yellow raspberries for pretty much the same reason. They are too delicious
I am still struggling with my lotus. Out of roughly 20 seeds, only 1 remains. I have a grow light on it, but that is bringing algae. I am trying to devise a filtration system in a 14” pot. I have a small fountain pump in the pot currently, but need a box or something to put it into so I can add filtration media to it.
Could you put the filter medium into another pot, perhaps? This is such a cool project, I wish I was more helpful to you
I have pond baskets I am thinking of using. They are a pot with lots of holes in them. Maybe a smaller pot would work better.
The big issue I am running into, I live in rural NM and no access to parts. I have to look up everything online and finding a small version of anything pond related I difficult. I am going to start looking at aquarium parts since that stuff is inherently smaller.
