The hydroponic tower is up, running, and ready for plants!
Water is flowing, everything’s holding steady, and I think…it’s going to work!

I can’t wait to start planting! Seeds have been started in rock wool.

I have one that's made it from spring til now & it pushed out the smallest flower. If it makes it thru the summer I'll be shocked & I'm leaving it to see if it does. #gardenexperiments

Milkweed is an aphid magnet. However, aphids are mostly on the milkweed, not on my grapevines, tomatoes, peppers, blackberries, etc.

I left them alone rather than hosing off the aphids and now I have ladybug larvae and white flies.

A tray of compost, freshly planted with autumn broad beans — now we wait. I’m running a little experiment to compare autumn-sown vs spring-sown broad beans. Will these early starters thrive? Time (and temperature) will tell…
