The meal I’ve been waiting for the whole year! Well, I always make this spaghetti, but not with stuff from my own garden! Today, I finally had enough ripe and semi-ripened cherry tomatoes to make a serving. I also used one of my garlic heads, which, by the way, are curing nicely. I even managed to pull oregano, thyme, and a bit of basil. Sadly, the onions are not yet ready, so I used a store-bought one. The basil that I managed to harvest is not enough, so I had to use dried basil from the shelf. It’s such an easy, quick, and wholesome lunch. I think my non-existing Italian ancestors would approve. 17-Aug-2023

I canned my last batch of tomato sauce today, I got 6 quarts. I was shooting for 18 for the year and actually made 19, so that's a success! Now that the nights are chilly, the tomatoes won't produce very much (if at all). I'd like to cover the one small volunteer plant with plastic to see if I can keep it going for fresh tomatoes to eat; it has a wonderful flavor. Tomorrow; one more round of wax beans to can or freeze. I'm undecided. And tired. And smell faintly of garlic and oregano.

My people would say, when your garden is blessed by many pollinators, your home is truly blessed.
I can't wait to plant more flowers for them! My blossoms bring all the bees to the yard, and they're like buzzzzzzz.

So… maybe kind of a weird question but does anyone know good plants to grow if you want to garden or keep houseplants but don't always have the energy/ability to keep on top of watering schedules and such?
I'm not gonna dump my whole life story and symptom list here but tldr I am a mentally ill individual who struggles often with having the energy to do things. I get depressive episodes that can last weeks or even months which often means that I'll take super good care of a plant and it'll do really well and then I suddenly stop watering it for weeks at a time because I'm using all my energy to do basic self care/necessities. Does anyone know a way to get around that??? Either tips on how to keep plants alive through periods of neglect, or plants that don't require much maintenance????? (If you're going to recommend any native plants, I live in east texas for reference) rn I'm just trying to salvage the plants I have, a very wilted succulent I forgot the name of, a very small zebra plant, and a parlor palm that has survived a shocking amount of things. I probably can't save all of them but I'm doing my best.

In regards to my last post about growing up in a different culture... I've always associated marigold flowers with the dead! Back home, we only use these flowers for All Saints Day, All Souls Day, and funerals. Don't get me wrong, the day of the dead has always been my favourite holiday. I love ripping the petals and scattering them on our dead relatives' resting places. I love how they look when hundreds of lit candles reflect on them. So, when we moved to Canada, I found it a little creepy how people just have them in their gardens. That is until I learned about their benefits for the garden. Now I'm in love, and I can't wait to plant more varieties next growing season.

Today!! Progress in motion, it feels good. Almost sowed the cabbage but there's roots there I gotta figure out before planting.
Germinated:
- 7 cauliflower seeds !!! They should pop out the green tomorrow
- a few nasturtium seeds, hallelujah!!!
Preparation:
- Hoed and raked the beds again, then Added soil mix to strawberries, Brussel sprouts, and root vegetables beds.
- Added the rest of the mix to two raised beds. Found a lot of potatoes in those beds, soil in good condition.
Sowed:
- 3 rows of onions in root vegetables bed
Tumblr media Tumblr media
- 2 half rows of beets in root vegetables bed, 3 seeds together at a time because I watched a video today showing beets like to be very close to each other and push each other out of the ground?
- whole bed of Brussel sprouts, pretty much the whole packet ~30 seeds in
- an area of beets in shed side raised bed 3
- 1 row of sprinkled chives seeds alongside the beets and the wall of the bed. That bed is complete, I believe.
Watered everything too far for the hose with a spray bottle, painstakingly.

Lined the Brussel sprouts with rocks I found in honor of my wife's work and style in landscaping. 💘
