whoa. what a big melt. the daisies have new shoots. (and here i've been indoors picking fallen palm flowers from the rug, with tweezers.) it's like. it's like... it's like half grass, half snow. w/chunks of ice. very unusually ... early! so, gave water, threw leaves, covered with snow. (not the fly) Arecaceae (palm) | Asteraceae (daisies)
it took probably 20-25 hours of labour, got a quarter bucket. at a low minimum wage, it's $200/pound. the final sprouts were the cutest. so, opted for a kilo of mung beans at store: $15. it snowed and melted twice. deep leaves, ladybugs burrowing all over. a new moon. coulda planted earlier (was mid-july). woulda got more potatoes. shoulda put it in more sun (just 2-4 hours a day). the soil was so-so. shoulda not covered plant when condo-ing... maybe next year.
also, difficult: the vertical garden w/ pallet. |
