Removing lawn, planting perennials, and installing drip lines. Yard work is hard work. Feels good. #gardening #climate #savewater

Golden Alexanders (Zizia Aurea) getting the #nativeplants season started. Great plant, forms nice clumps and self sows around, but in a good way. #gardening #pollinators #Bloomscrolling #ohio

The hot compost pile was at 66°C/151F today so it’s had three days over 65°C. Two days at that temperature is sufficient to kill weed seeds and pathogens.10 litres of rainwater and lactic acid bacteria (LAB) diluted 1:1000 was added to the pile.The pile had its first turn, outside to in.Within an hour of turning it had heated up from 53°C/137F to 59°C/138F. The pile should remain above 55°C/131F for the next three days when it will be turned again. #Compost #Composting #SolarPunkSunday

It has begun! The Flying Saucer cacti flowers are in the process of opening for their one day of life. The sequence of photos was taken at 5:30 pm, 6:30 pm, and 7:40 pm, to give an idea of how quickly this happens. #MarxToot #cactus #gardening

@kiramt I think this is what made the difference for me. I always thought it was in shade, but I paid attention last year and it was getting sun during the hottest part of the day. I moved it and here we are. Gardening is really just an endless, beautiful experiment.

Teeny tiny Omphalodes verna flower popping out of the moss. I love the flowers that flourish despite it all. These little ones have crawled all over the place. Feels nice and rebellious in the city. #nature #gardening #Bloomscrolling #Mosstodon

@brudibrau And I thought you had to use rhizomes!Game changer!

@StarlingW Azera envy here! I had two freeze out on me and I can’t think of trees as annuals. Great fragrance that is a bonus to the garden.

Today in #gardening news, the pole beans, tomatoes and zucchini all moved from the cold frames to the raised beds. Lettuce has been going great in their boxes for the past two weeks even giving us a few salads to enjoy. Carrots haven’t shown themselves but potatoes are coming up. AND I found a nettle patch on my morning wander and went back to forage enough for tea all summer. #pnw #zone8a
