I have 3 jalapeño plants. All are producing a lot of peppers! This is one of them, with a cluster of jalapeño peppers, ripening 😁👩‍🌾💚
I love eating pickled jalapeños & am planning to pickle up most of our harvest.

My top pruned Thai chili pepper plant is now bushier than the others not top pruned & it has almost same amount of flowers. Currently there are 19 peppers developing on it. My other Thai chili peppers plants are also loaded with flowers & each one has over 20 peppers on them. I'll do a harvest weigh in comparison, when they're all picked 🙂✌️💚

Beet & rutabaga seeds have been sowed. I'm sowing next bunch of seeds every 1.5 weeks until end of September 👩‍🌾💚
Sowing my Winter turnips & daikon, next week.
The beet seeds are from Borden Mercantile. The rutabaga seeds, that look like poppy seeds, are from my friend's garden - she is unsure what variety it is.

Baby corn - sweet yellow corn - local dwarf variety. I didn't expect to get any ears at all so these were nice surprises.

My first of two artichoke propagations. This one is now 1.5' tall & is very lush & healthy 💚👩‍🌾
My other one is only 3 inches tall so far but should grow bigger over next few weeks.

Bagged watermelons for protection.
These are 3 of 15 of watermelons that are currently growing on vines.
It's my 2nd year attempting to grow watermelons on Southern Vancouver Island. I'm getting a lot more fruits than last year 🍉👩‍🌾👍
My cantaloupe seeds failed this year.

Sowed watercress in 2 pots & 1 repurposed colander(lined with paper towel). I picked up 4 free colanders, on the weekend. They're all in a repurposed cafeteria bin, with water.

The ginger that I planted on August 12th are all doing well. Here's some of them, emerging from the soil.

I did more homemade soil mixing, adding vermiculite into it.
Rooted my hibiscus cuttings into a pot.
Petted my wee basil babies.
I'm a proud, diverse plants parent 💚

I cut off 2 side shoots that had their own root system entangled with larger lavender root ball. Transplanted them into their own pots. Added some lavender cutting propagations into the pots too.
I also dug out a new artichoke side shoot & transplanted into its own pot.

A still shot of my gorgeous beetroot seeds 😍
I love seed photos. I love seeds. I love photography. Great, when both lifelong passions are combined.

My amazing #beetroot #seeds.

Winter carrots seeds were sowed. This is two of 8 pots that I sowed with more mini rainbow carrots & some finger carrots. I should be able to harvest these carrots in November/December. I will have round & finger carrots sowed outdoors in pots in October & November, moved indoors over Winter & those should be ready for harvest in January/February 🥕

Harvested a bunch of older Thai lemon mint & Vietnamese coriander from our repurposed bathtub planter. Allowing new growths to come up & fill the bathtub planter again.
I never grow these in ground - only in controlled containers.

I did two harvests today. A snack pack of peas & cherry tomatoes - ate that while working in the gardens. Picked more homegrown foods for family to share.

The top & bottom pruned Thai pepper bounced back quite well after one week. It is almost the exact same height as the 2 other plants which only got bottom foliage & some flowers removed. I'm top pruning all peppers(except large varieties) from now on.

First okra harvested. You want to harvest okra fruits at this stage & pick off fruits when they're no bigger than this size. You'll encourage the plant to produce more flowers/fruits if you don't leave fruits on for too long. I explain in the video.

🌱 Important read for anyone interested in food, farming & ag.

This piece asks a pretty fundamental question: what if feeding the world wasn’t just about producing more food, but about building food systems that actually work for people?

Drawing on small-farm systems in India, Bosnia and the US, it looks at how biodiversity, local markets, mutual aid and public infrastructure can make food systems more resilient — while strengthening communities at the same time.

Lots to think about here, especially as we keep talking about food security, climate, farming and the future of #Agriculture

I try to avoid LinkedIn unless I have to go there. But an AgTech investment post celebrating the "Monsanto playbook" as a model to replicate got under my nose badly enough that I had to write about it.

Nobody who knows my work would call me anti-tech. But there's a hard line between technology that increases farmer capability and technology that engineers farmer dependency. The Monsanto playbook is the second kind.

The playbook: own the genetics, bundle the chemicals, capture the data, engineer the debt. Charge the farmer for all of it. Call it innovation.

Also in there: corporate capture of agricultural knowledge, India's farmer suicide crisis, Dark Emu and native grass seeds, and why a loaf of bread can be a political act.

Tech4Good means the farmer gets more capable. Not more dependent.

#Tomatoes #transplanting.
Ensure that you pile up the soil at base of your plants. Tomato plants are happier, when you mound up the soil & transplant them deep into pots(if you're not putting them into ground). Banana peel & fish head parts are at bottom of every tomato planter to ensure they are constantly fed from the bottom up 👩‍🌾
I'll update in 1-2 weeks on how I use alfalfa feed pellets when my tomato plants start to produce their first fruit babies.

I want everyone to be able to have food/flower plants to nurture. For folks who can't afford to buy plants - it's important for me to give them away. I know how expensive it can get if you have to buy all your seeds/plants. My goal with sharing free plants is to make food/flowers growing more accessible to everyone. I also help fellow disabled folks set up their gardening spaces so it's easier for them to grow plants. I have been doing that for free, for years. #Gardening can be inclusive & accessible to all.
