Day 44 from Sprout 🌱 in My Living Soil Bed 🪱

What’s up my growing friends!!!

I can’t believe the amount love I’ve gotten over the past few weeks documenting my living soil grow. I can’t thank you guys enough for the comments. Last week I posted my last years outdoor grow and it got 240k+ views and 1,000’s of upvotes. If you didn’t see it, go check it out. I was showing how I made cannabis a little more aesthetically pleasing by planting with companions. It brought a lot of color, and conversation on my back deck! You guys rock and I love reading *MOST* of your comments! Haha.

It’s been 8 Days since my last update of my indoor grow and shits getting real! I love my little basement jungle. Haha. I’m a little overdue for some defoliation but I’ve very happy with 2 rounds of topping I did along with LST to get this Cannabis Bush! Sometime this week I’ll remove a bunch of fan leaves and add my trellis.

I hosted my family Easter egg hunt this year and had a ton of people at the house. Needless to say, if you come in my house, I’m making you look at my garden. I know you guys can relate 😂😂

I hope everyone is doing good. If you like this post, go to my page and check out where we began and you can see the progress and how it unfolded.

P.S. - Yes I love playing rainforest sounds for my plants. Don’t judge. And when I’m not playing music, it’s constantly listening to the rain water and air stone 😂

Cheers and Happy Growing to All!! ♥️

Absolute beginner!

So I thought I’d try and grow sunflowers for the first time (have never had an interest in gardening before) so started them off in the little seedling pots and promptly forgot about them. Can I move them to soil outside just in the pots with the roots growing through the cardboard? Will it disintegrate ok? TIA! 🌱

Is my hosta patriot dead?

Hi everyone, I am in zone 9b Central California & I planted 3 hosta patriot last September and they did AMAZING in my yard until the cold came. It’s now April and they have yet to come back. When they died off, I did a hard prune and cut the dead foliage off. I’m worried that I killed the plants, but I heard that these are very hard to kill.. any help or guidance is much appreciated - these are my first hostas so I’m new to this plant!

I took 2 pics of the mulched area of 2 of my 3 hostas for reference.

🌱 Calling All Plant Lovers!🌱

Hi!

My name is Monique!

A few friends and I—STEM students and plant enthusiasts—have been geeking out over plants and tech, and we had an idea: a sensor-and-app bundle to track plant growth. We just want to explore it for fun and see if it’s actually useful for people who love plants as much as we do.

We’d love your input! Whether you’re a newbie or a seasoned plant parent, your thoughts will help us understand what really matters to our little plant community.

It’s a super quick survey—just a couple of minutes!

Help us figure out what would actually be helpful for plant lovers like us.

Here's the survey:

Help with Mango Tree Fruiting

Hi everybody. First of all, please ignore the overgrown weeds and vegetation on the ground, need to do some clearing this weekend.

My question is about this beautiful mango tree that we have. I germinated it from a seed about six or seven years ago. Last year the tree started giving marble sized fruits. But none of them grew any bigger than the size of a marble, and they all dried out and fell off.

I’m looking for advice on what I can do to help promote fruiting from the tree. I understand I may be a season or two early given the age of this germinated plant.

Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Got out into the garden… not dead yet!

For context, I’ve been recently diagnosed with non-radiographic axial spondyloarthrtis and possibly UCTD. My garden and yard really went downhill last fall and it honestly broke my heart because I’ve been really proud of the way we transformed our 2/3 acre property.

I started Rinvoq two weeks ago, and I’m also on Xolair, Wegovy, Singulair and sulfasalazine. This past week I’ve almost started feeling normal outside of fatigue.

This weekend I planted strawberries in new 2’ raised beds with my kids. My husband got them set up and covered with a chicken coop to keep the deer out.

Today I got out in the front garden and cleaned up some sedum and covered them with net wastebaskets so the rabbits can’t eat them. Also got my rabbitbrush pruned up. I only spent about 30 minutes. My husband made me use my kneeler/garden seat and I was honestly annoyed, but I think it helped my back a lot. Annoyingly. 🙃

I worked in the shade, before it got too hot, and I came inside, drank water, and I don’t feel half dead!

I really hope my bad hip cooperates and I can get out again tomorrow. Baby bites! 🌱

The curated balance between human design and the wild impulse of the earth

There is something incredibly meditative about the way a garden exists as a collaboration between our own vision and the unpredictable nature of the soil, especially when you realize that a garden is never truly finished but is instead a living and breathing process that changes with every single hour of light, it feels like a garden is a private sanctuary where time moves differently and the outside noise of the world just doesn't seem to reach as clearly, and even with all the modern ways we have to automate irrigation and monitor plant health there is still no replacement for the physical act of getting your hands into the dirt and feeling the temperature of the ground

Ivy removal

Hello! We have 3 big ivy bushes that are about 2x1 meters and 3 meters high, we are removing them to build a deck around the house instead and to avoid any foundation issues with them being close to the house.

Is it enough to cut them down to their roots and they covering them with a tarp with the wood deck above?

Does ivy stand any chance to break trough with sunlight completely removed?
