Apparently it's time to start some seedlings, but the potting soil is a frozen block. Broke off a few chunks and put them in the house to thaw.

#Update: #JerusalemArtichoke

I’ve started 4 new #tubers in bags of #potting mix with drainage holes on the underside & a large diamond shaped opening on top for the plant to be watered & grow through.

Two of the plants that were in the tub have been replanted into bags of their own as well, but with square holes on top.

No reason for the hole shape change. 🤪

Photos later as my back is currently complaining about me carrying potting mix bags around & doing some bending.

Sigh. #gardening.

Big potting day today trying to get 14 plants (2 cuttings went to a friend) potted, photographed, tidy up, get frost cloth off etc.

I’m going big this week and next with ones I’ve really wanted before the money runs out and I’m out of space. It’s going to be tough to ignore the weekly sales going forward but I’m going to have to if I’m going to survive financially.

Next week will likely be my last plant mail post for a while. I’ll just have to post pics of the ones that are catching my eye instead! I’m waiting (impatiently) for my zygocactus to flower (only buds so far) so I’ll definitely be sharing when that happens!

This week’s #PlantMail newbies are:

- Echeveria Kabaldi/Prism (this is a maybe ID as the only one the seller could provide was “pink Korean hybrid”)
- Echeveria Pink Apparition
- Echeveria Chihuahuaensis x Red Velvet
- Echeveria Truffle
- Echeveria Black Crystal
- Echeveria Heather
- Aeonium Cherry Blossom (gift from a seller)
- Echeveria Lovely Bear
- Crassula Deceptor
- Echeveria Valkyrie
- Echeveria Kissing Bumps
- Echeveria Lilac Mist

Also, apologies if my alt text is not so great this week. I’m not having a good brain fog day but was really excited to share them and didn’t want to wait. It’s also really difficult to describe three very similar plants differently! If anyone wants to suggest any changes/improvements please feel free and I’ll edit it.

Potting on has come up recently in conversation. I tend to pot on seedlings as early as I can, sometimes ones that only have the original leaves. This is because they can already have good roots that want space to grow.

Have you heard of "Kill them with #Kindness?" Georgia asked from the #Potting #Bench.

Unsure what was coming next, Ava nodded.

"Well, this big ol' #Jade #Plant almost #Drowned because Missy watered it every day when Jane was sick. Now I get to do CPR to try & save it.
It's like I always say: If you're going to #CODDLE something, make sure you know what you're doing first. No sense missing the mark."

Georgia had a plant #Analogy for every situation.
It got old.
