note: even though these pics are cute, i’d recommend not introducing your rats and rabbits to eachother unless you are 100% sure you can guarantee the safety of both animals. if you do decide to introduce them, make sure to keep a close eye on them so you can separate them immediately if anything goes wrong.
- Pulled out my carrots! I think I need to put them in taller planters haha, but also this peachy gladiolus bloomed today and look at the perfect timing of the cabbage white butterfly!
what if early in the morning after buying groceries we got caught in the rain and i used my jacket to cover your head but we still got soaked and we made a fire at home and brewed tea and sat together watching the rain as our cats hid under our feet at each sound of thunder and we ate stew for dinner and watched tv until we fell asleep on the couch with your head resting on my shoulder
the pink shrub is a shrub of trumpet flowers!! credits to @rassy for taking such a wonderful picture!!!!!! i am so glad to have finally found the original owner.
My garbage onion (I grew it from the root end of a store bought onion, something that normally goes in the garbage) finally sent up a shoot! And look at all those gorgeous roots!
I also had some sprouting store-bought garlic (you can see it on the counter behind the onion) so I decided to put those in some dirt as well. So one onion, five cloves of garlic.
I’ll probably sprout another onion bottom after dinner, since I have a couple of yellow onions that need to be eaten and my little sprouting dish is now empty.
Finally getting my seeds started! Since I live in an apartment with no balcony or patio this will all be a 100% indoor garden. Never done this before, so we’ll see how it goes!
Now, this seed starter tray is really nice. I’ve seen a few different versions, but I went with this one (years ago) because the company offered refill pellets so you can reuse the plastic tray and clear greenhouse lid (not pictured).
I will say that these little pellet refills also work well when put in eggshells for those who like to use their old eggshells as seed starter containers. They have biodegradable mesh around them that allows them to more or less keep their shape in case they’re too tall for the eggshell.
To use, just soak them for about 10 minutes or until they’ve expanded, then sink a single seed in the center of each one.
