  1. For some reason all my other veggies are fine? Like maybe kinda smallish or narrow but still pretty okay and very alive. I cannot for the life of me make a single radish go past the leafy stage and make a root. This has become my white whale because radishes were supposed to be the easy beginner crop.

  2. I'm gonna grow so many fucking radishes if/when this works.

  3. I definitely need to replace some of my potting soil because it's full of salt bulidup lol. I thought this might be true, then read something that made me question it, now I am sure. Radish death mystery/ squiggly weak leaf mystery solved.

    Many things grew decently or even very well! But my oldest pot has a plant in it that it turning literally purple???? in places from phosphorous deficiency despite being recently fed phosphorous. There are white crusts from all the water buildup and it seems I'm just gonna have to a)replace potting soil moderately regularly b)water only with filtered water or c)likely both lol.

    This is a big deal though, this solves a Large Persistent Mystery that has caused me to really kind of feel incompetent and bad at gardening for a while.

  8. Want a tough-as-nails drought resistant perennial for shade? The somewhat underused Epimediums are in bloom.

    I love the flower and leaf edge color-echo…

  13. As I await tulips to begin blooming, here’s from a past spring,
    Euphorbia characias and Tulip ‘Bastogne.’

    The color echoes were not planned…rather, they were another gift from the garden🌿

  18. Planting Moonflower Vine seeds…and thinking of that magical moment when the first flower unfolds it’s fragrant beauty.

    Every year, I watch in wonder.
