I feel like I’m leaving it a bit late if I want to sow sugar pumpkins. I just wonder if I should take more physical work on because the initial filling and moving of the pots is gruelling and risks injury…
I just need something to do right now that engages me without urgency and gently keeps me moving.
If I were physically able and it was safe to I would be doing physical work or taking walks/going for runs just to destress.
Hm. I could get a punnet of cherry tomatoes for their seeds but I would have to order the mini pumpkin seeds and I still haven’t worked out what to do around theft prevention. I could ask someone to get it for me and they’re happy to but I hate adding to someone else’s plate.
I’ve decided that if I get stuck I can borrow some of the pvc pipes from the cat enclosure to serve as stakes. Since I haven’t been using it. They’re UV resistant and can still be used after the zucchini are finished fruiting, and if not I can just get more pipes.
I think it's ok to plant late as the seasons seem to be extended now.
Just try it. 🙂
I can plant the cherry tomato seeds but just realised I might not get good results if they’re a hybrid variety
You cold still try, might not be perfect but still ok. 👍
Which pre-minced or -chopped ginger is the least ass? Maybe I should Nutribullet some fresh stuff and freeze it? Just for use in smoothies. Any wisdom?
