  2. Hydroponic spinach is going well after a lot of babying.

    The tatsoi, poblanos, and pumpkins are doing good too.

    A single musk melon is... problematic, which is why I direct sowed about a dozen the other day. Let's hope for at least one mate.

  3. Basement garden is in full swing.

    Purple tomatillos, 5 types of lettuce, cherry tomatoes and basil.

    On deck: Sugar pumpkins, poblanos, tatsoi and chives.

    Bonus: hydroponic spinach kratky experiment

  5. I might have a baby redbud 🥹 Unless it's a weed whose seed flew into the pot 😄 We'll have to wait and see (but it's in the middle, where I put the little bean, so it should be it).

    In other news, it seems my (potted) wisteria probably froze this harsh winter. It was slow to start growing leaves last year, too, but I feel like it's too late at this point 😞

  7. Baby lemony basil just starting its second set of leaves!

    I wrote alt text but in my sleepy headed state couldn’t come up with a good description of the interesting shape of the initial cotyledon leaves.

    I really enjoy having a camera app with manual focus on my iPhone for photos like this one. An old version of Obscura.

  9. Finally got around to replanting my tree seedling/clone experiments, something I've kinda neglected to do for far too long.

    The two surviving Thujas I grew from seeds were half dead and their roots look not so great, but apparently thujas do have brown roots, so maybe they'll make it.

    The clones from spruce cuttings had mostly not managed to develop roots and I got a little sad about that until I got to this one, which somehow was rocking huge roots and a fresh sprouting tip at the top 🥳

    A few others had a tiny start of a root. They're all planted out front in a little tree school row now. I think that one will at least make it!

    Lovely large #yellow horseshoe marking on the inner petals. I'm calling it Kathleen after my late mother.

    "#LandcareAustralia is proud to partner with #PointPearceAboriginalCorporation in establishing a First Nations community-led conservation and education project. Located in South #Australia’s Point Pearce in the #WardangIsland #IndigenousProtectedArea (IPA), the project is led by the #TraditionalOwners, the #Narungga people, and aims to support #Indigenous youth to learn about their Cultural heritage and knowledge that will lead to career and leadership pathways in #EnvironmentalConservation. 


    At the heart of this initiative is the Point Pearce First Nations Culture Garden, a space where #Elders, #FirstNationsRangers, and #IndigenousYouth come together to bridge and transfer #CulturalKnowledge. Designed as a hands-on learning environment, it will inspire young people to explore environmental conservation, deepen their appreciation for the natural world and discover career pathways that utilise Cultural knowledge. 


    The Culture Garden will feature a #medicinal and #ceremonial plant area, #NativeBushFoods, water features to attract #wildlife, #SensoryGarden, and dedicated spaces for learning and Cultural practice. With a #seedling #propagation zone, a #NativeSeed cleaning station, a fruit and nut #orchard, and interpretive walking trail. More than just a garden, it serves as a ‘cultural learning hub’—fostering pride and offering a comprehensive setting for community events, educational programs, and vocational training opportunities. With funding from #OneTreePlanted, the tree planting will also help #restore #NativeVegetation and improve habitat for threatened species including the Southern Hairy-nosed #Wombat. 


    Aligned with the South Australian Department for Education’s Aboriginal Education Strategy, the project aims to inspire engagement, Cultural pride, and environmental responsibility among First Nations students. It focuses on educational outcomes and how Cultural activities can play in enhancing social and academic competence among First Nations students."

  22. Guide to writing fiction with AI

    I started this journey out of frustration. I’ve had a story languishing in my mind (one of many!) that wouldn’t stop nagging me each night. So, one day, I decided to let AI write it for me by sending it my storybeats (description or outline) with the dialogue I have of each chapter.

    Since then, I got more and more curious about the process. I started wondering out loud if writing fiction with AI is as evil as the writing community made it sound.

    Experimenting with AI fiction writing made me more aware about my creative writing processes. This helped me clarify what processes I will outsource to AI, and what I will keep.

    The sunbirds are back building a new nest (far right vine). I hope it will be completed soon! 🥰

    14 March 2025
    So, each time a Sunbird couple’s chick grows up, they leave the nest behind. The last couple left a fully intact nest but over time the vine it was built on withered.

    One day, it fell. I was a little superstitious and it felt like a shame to get rid of it, so I kept it. (Don’t laugh.) Then, a new sunbird couple started building a new nest on a different vine. I thought to myself: Won’t it be nice if they didn’t have to fly so far to gather their supplies and reuse the old nest?

    So, I placed the next on the branches of a shrub near the nest. I noticed that they liked to perch there from time to time, so I hoped that they would notice the old nest and reuse it.

    It worked! They started picking apart the old nest and using the materials to build the new nest. The old nest is now half its size. Nature at work is so beautiful!

    15 March, 2025

    Sunbirds recycle 😆🤭

    I placed an old nest on the shrub and now its just taking it apart to build a new nest. Aren’t they clever?

    Feeling semi proud that I got the idea of placing the old nest in the bush where the current sunbirds couple likes to hang out. Seeing them peck at the old nest and fly the bits that they have from it to the new nest is really satisfying 😆

  29. Today was a productive day. I sowed three different types of tomatoes in soil block cubes. I also transplanted the sweet pepper seedlings, which had sprouted in the soil blocks and waited there for too long the transplantation into larger growing pots.

    Unfortunately, I also had to deal with an aphid infestation on my couple month old jalapeño and chili seedlings, and I really hope the treatment was effective.

    I will soon run out of desktop space and it is still too cold to put the seedlings into a balcony.

  30. This passion fruit seedling did consider for a month and a half before sprouting, but did it anyway. Don’t know if it was the right thing to do though. I mean, it is summer and all the nice things now, but let’s wait a few months and see it getting introduced to the Finnish winter…

  33. #CompostAtHome tip

    If you have to #transplant your #seedlings make a bucket of aerated #compost tea. Soak the #seedling in the #compostTea for 30 seconds to get the biological activity in the #soil block.

    The big pro of doing this is that you won't have to water after the transplant and it will give enough nutrients for the plant to grow and avoid any shock.
