so is mine....she loves the jokes
The "Kardashian Look" is not for me.

I vastly prefer the balanced perfection of this body type:

Whew, finally able to sit down for a break. Got everything I could done today despite the rain. Planted marigolds in my new/old plant stand. Going to move it to my garden area after the rain. Transplanted my eggplants into 4” peat pots as they needed more room to grow till I can put them out in May. Updated my herb garden with 5 new plants As they were root bound and overgrown in my indoor garden. Looks kinda naked now but they will grow really quick. Planted the old ones in my flowerbed. They will love it outside. The inside ones love the window that gives them perfect sun when they seem to need it. Got silly monkey curtains I got from good will hung on two windows in my laundry room where I put the new tent. There was no need for privacy in that room till now. And…got the new light hung yay. It’s just like Christmas looking in that new tent with the new MarsHydro light.

Looking good! You've been a busy girl!

Sprinkler system is up and running. No issues at all. That is the first time in a long time that I didn't at least have to replace a couple of heads. My lucky day I guess.

Congratulations!
 
Good sound to start the day with Mr Jones. Hope you are enjoying the start to your day Big.


aww thanks SG , right back at ya!

we are having a wind event today , 30-40 mph gusts , it is difficult to get anything done outdoors under these conditions , sometimes I wonder why I even try!

this is a god forsaken land out here, we have been in a drought for several years , we are a few degrees away from becoming a desert!


that’s us down in the southeast part near the red zone

My goodness all that dry your way. Do you have to tote water to all your outdoor plants or will the hose reach them when it doesn’t rain. I’m thinking you don’t ph the water you feed them and just use the hose but this post got me thinking of how you water your plants. Sorry about the wind. My pepper plants did ok in the low 40s last night. It’s sunny today so I’m hoping that soil will warm up good again for tonight.

yep , water hose

but not directly on the plants

goes into 5 gallon buckets for 24 hours and watered the next day. ( sometimes directly on the plants when I am lazy , our little town has its own water treatment plant and our own aquifer and it is a reverse osmosis system so the water is pretty good for plants , around a 7.0 - 7.2 Ph right out the tap

we also make some teas in the 5 gallon buckets , worm poo , bat poo , chicken poo…you get the idea!…lol

a lot,of staking up plants until they get bigger and then we use horti-netting

glad your pepper plants did ok…it’s to early here to set anything out , but not the pot plants , if they are hardened off or volunteers , which we probably have 100 or more of them little buggers coming up everywhere this year , mainly because last year was a seed making year and all plants were seeded

time,for some carrot cake
