In this domestic garden, every leaf is a proclamation of sustainability, every stem a testament to the simple yet profound act of regrowth. Through the lens, the photo captures not just greenery, but a narrative of an empty space transformed into a space of self-sustenance, where the act of regrowing becomes a daily celebration of nature's resilience and the joy of a thriving, regenerating ecosystem.

Hello hello everyone!

I'm glad to be back and feeling a little more refreshed this week! Hopefully everyone has been able to take a moment in their garden or farm or homestead efforts! :)

To start off some of my hollyhocks bloomed!

Sadly, this was the only one that was bright and bold so far :/ and it's less than a foot tall 😆 so long as the seeds mature ill be happy though :) I would love to have more of these beautiful flowers growing tall and luscious for allt he pollinators of the area 😍

I pulled the Nasturtium. Sadly they reached the end of their life cycle faster than I expected. I will absolutly be growing them again! I also got a ton of seed which I am stoked about!

I replanted this area with rainbow chard and kale seed. There is as well still nasturtium seed in the bed as i got kinda lazy towards the end of clean up. As their growing this time I plan on plucking the plants and using them all for cooking this time round, even if just for egg dishes and salads. (At worst my chickens will love the extra greens!)

A few of the armeninan cucumbers I planted have finally started taking off! I cannot wait for those tasty cukes!!

I believe the lentil grow experiment has just about concluded now. I've seen small flowers for a couple weeks but nothing more than that. For now I'm leaving them in to give ground cover on the soil.

The flowers are super cute, but I haven't seen too many pollinators for them. So I don't really know if I'll get any fruit.

An onion update~ I accidently lopped the flower head off one of these guys while trying to remove the carrots that got trashed in the last wind storm.

I think next time I do this grow experiment with onions, will be fall/winter. Around the time I planted them was a lot of temperature fluctuation so they went straight to flower and not bulbing like I had hoped.

we have some ears! During all the wind storms these poor guys got pretty beat up. While I wasn't too impressed with the germination of this variety I do have to admit they have been incredibly hardy! If the ear growth isn't too bad I think I shall be giving them another try in a different area next grow cycle.

To those who desire to grow mint, a small warning

It is invasive! Once established mint is incredibly invasive. I have seen it take over entire yards, even in 9b-10a areas under okay ish conditions.

To be honest I'm not sure this one actually came from a runner though (a type of root some plants have to spread themselves) or if it was seeded in. as the mint has seeded several times and there are some varities of finches in the area that eat them on occasion. Either way I pulled it. While I don't mind the mint in the herb or floral part of my grow space I do not want it in the vegetable area. Far to easy to lose under big plants and become a problem.

Speaking of big plants!

That pumpkin sprout has grown into a pumpkin forest! I eagerly await the pumpkins 🎃

That's it for today's update :)

🌱💐Happy Gardening! 💐🌱

Marigold

I planted marigolds back in 2021 from the first time and I loved them. In 2022 I wanted to take a break, so decided not to plant anything, not knowing that I was going to get several free plants. I got several free cherry tomatoes, tomatillos that fruited A LOT! But I also got marigolds, many of them just sprouted and I was so happy, as they don't usually regrow in our region. It is November now, and I still got one more marigold here. 🐝 💚 🌺

The damage suffered will be undone. The way her body had worn out began to reverse and change about - healed her bones, mended her knees, her shoulders, her back, her feet. All the things others had stolen from her being were restored to her double. Breath of life filled her up, made her new, refilled what was lacking, regrew what was missing. Ever forming newness within her, filling her up from the endless chamber of life-giving power.
