Louie looks like he is waiting for you to look away so he can make himself a salad out of that plant…
Louie only likes it when it’s burning. He’s my stoner cat. Loves to partake when one is burning. It’s my other cat Cleo who is the plant junkie. She eats it then sometimes I have ganja barf to clean up.

You are describing my lawn…
I have tried to bring these back but they are always spindly and ugly. This one is gonna look beautiful come Christmas. Do you have to put it in the dark to get it to turn red? Seems like I heard that somewhere

Yes. It needs a 12/12 cycle to turn red. Never tried it before but I am going to this year. I get the odd leaf here or there that is red but for the most part it has been green. It has been getting fed with my excess weed nutes so I think that is why it has exploded this year. I have a saguaro cactus that is about 20 years old too that has tripled in size in the last year after being a 2” tall cactus for most of its life. It likes the nutes too.

I did some reading about pumpkins. They have male and female flowers. The male flowers bloom before the females(sounds familiar) to condition bees and other pollinators to come to the plants. I now have at least 2 actual pumpkins.

I know I have a bit of a pot belly but why are you calling me a stove?

I gotta figure out what to do with the many tomatoes that are suddenly all ripening. I think I need to can some and maybe make a batch of sauce but I think I still have too many. The neighbors too. I saw an article saying farmers are warning of an increase in ketchup, tomato sauce and other product prices. Not a problem here…
