Finally, gingers are popping! It took them 15-17 days to appear. I'm sharing this in case you are looking for numbers. The weather has been between 65 and 78 degrees Fahrenheit, and it's getting warmer slowly. I guess because gingers are tropical, they want more heat.

The image depicts a close-up view of soil. The soil is dark brown and filled with wood chips, small white pebbles, and tiny yellow seeds. There are three cinnamon sticks scattered across the top and right side of the image. A small, light green sprout is visible in the center of the image.
The image shows a pink plastic planter filled with dark soil and wood chips. Two cinnamon sticks are laid diagonally across the soil. A small green sprout is growing in the middle.


I know there are too many of them in a bag. But, just look at them. They are happy. This new soil+compost+warm castings combo is giving me great results in other containers, too.

Potato plants growing in black grow bags


This morning’s 15-minute break was spent planting French marigold seeds in many tomato and pepper containers.

Then, this corner already has some wildflower seedlings that I threw two and a half weeks ago. I have randomly mixed seeds of French marigold, echinacea, salvia blue, chamomile, and anise hyssop in the leftover space.

All of these seeds are 4 to 2 years old. I don’t know how viable at this point. It’s going to be fun if these old seeds pop up. Imagine the riot of color in this 4x4 bed.

A raised garden bed filled with dark soil contains several small, light green seedlings sparsely scattered across its surface. Five seed packets are laid on the soil: one labeled "Echinacea Purpurea," one labeled "Salvia Blue," one labeled French marigold, one labeled anise hydsop, and one labeled "Chamomile German." Two broken, light brown sticks are placed in the soil, and a yellow envelope lies near the left edge of the bed. The bed is lined with black landscaping fabric.


Spiders don't need any help from me. :) I found it at the Jasmine plant this morning.

 A close-up shot of a plant's leaves and stem heavily coated in a thick, white, web-like substance, possibly spider silk or a plant disease. The leaves are large, green, and appear somewhat damp.  The background shows a partly cloudy sky with a hint of sunset, a green tree, a wooden fence, and a portion of a yard.
