First time growing this variety and they're pretty tasty. Then again my taste buds are bland so the taste of these are extraordinary to me haha. I am really surprised how few of them csn be humongous while others are tiny. Either way, I grew too many that I can eat so I've been giving the excess away to family and friends.
Hatching another batch of peppers and starting cucumbers soon. You can follow me on TikTok under Deku Farms if y'all interested in more daily updates. I'm trying to be more active on lemmy 🙏🏽
One of the few pepper pods showing, bell peppers. I planted 5 to a box, with 3 of them being conjoined. I also added a vermicompost bin and to my surprise, the peppers have responded really well to that method as well as to my Amaranth + Basil.
I'm a bit behind on my pepper plants this season so im looking to catch up by planting more seeds this month, mainly from the grocery store bell peppers.
Some say they dont fruit or are bad, but honestly its worth a shot. Sounds like what Big Seed wants us to believe lol
I have more content on TikTok, Deku Farms if y'all care to follow 💚
I'll tie a mesh bag to capture some seeds as rods I saw a lot laid out on my driveway
I took this when there was overcast in the afternoon, not close to any mountains
I've been growing these sunflowers for a little over half a year and I think I'm always going to have these in rotation. The birds and bees love these beauties as one gets drunk off the pollen while the other snipes bugs from above.
Anyone ever harvested sunflower seeds to eat? How was the process and taste?
I'm pretty sure JD Vance was one of the participants of the RNC/Grindr fiasco
Yes, NPS staff but anonymously. Is that a problem?
Pathetic. We, the people, have the power. Its why Republicans are speedrunning fascism before the rest of dumb af America wakes up.
Planted Pink Ladies along with Red California Poppy to bring some life to my front yard. I've grown tired of the mono lawns I've seen and wanted to spruce things up. !!!
It's been amazing seeing the flowers blossoming as well as fruits growing. Currently got blackberries, boysenberries, raspberries, blueberries, and grapes looking healthy as heck and pushing flowers!
Oh shit, yes my out/in flow is running constantly. Could that be the cause?
Hmm I have a small 3x3 or 4x4 grow tent; heat mat, lights, in/outflow, and 2 fans circulating the air. During the winter it would be too cold to get any of my peppers to germ as the weather continously dipped below 50 at night. My grow routine would be day time during night so the peppers 'high' would be a smidgen below 60 degrees by the time I woke up.
It's the second time I seen DLI so I'll look into it for peppers
Ah, try canning your excess? I plan on making some pasta sauce for any extra left over. Have you looked into growing vertically?
There's never too many then there's how much your spouse is willing to put up with it 😅
Oh cheese, I feel ya. I was like that late fall and throughout winter due to my grow tent not just getting how enough to transplant/Jumpstart a few varieties.
By the time I bought a small grow tent heater, the weather began to get warmer. What do you plan on sprouting?
Hello Earth Shepard's! Waiting patiently for some harvests to come in. So far I've been plucking away at my lemon trees to make lemonade (tried wine, but for health sake I'm sticking to lemonade) until everyone else catch up.
Invitees are: Blackberry (x2), Peach (x2), Raspberry(x2), Boysenberry(x3), Blueberry(x1), Strawberry (pulled a few and they're good, x8), Summer Crisp lettuce (still producing and tasty,x6), Tomatoes (Roma and Black Krim,x10), Apple (x1) Bell Peppers(x12) and Zucchini(x2).
As you can see, bell peppers and tomatoes make up a large part of my garden. I'm shifting more to a perrenial grow instead of annuals (peppers here are perrenials) hence the large amount of peppers. In hindsight, I should had bought more Blueberry bushes and at least another tray of strawberry starters.
Besides the strawberries and the trees, everything else has been grown from seed. Pictures are just a minor snippet of what's growing in my backyard.

White women will do anything except hold white men accountable. They're content with being numero dos as long as other minorities and women of color remain "at the bottom."
We, The People, give these corporations power over us since we foolishly voted in self-serving politicians that allowed Citizens United to enter the political arena and since then no politician has lifted a finger to repeal it.
We live in a dystopia.
I applaud her for fighting against the ocean tide. Our clothes are made from slave/child labor as well as most of our electronics. Expecting fellow Microsoft employees who are very comfortable in their position to give that up because of AI killing people?
I absolutely hate how apathetic the world is. It should never be "that's the way it is" because we, humans, let it get this far. Are corporations to be blamed, consumers, or both?
Who's turn is it to pass the hot potato?
Correction: US Republicans and Trump hate the USA. Do not pin it on one person as it takes a village. Fox News hates America, Joe Rogan rather be Russian than an American.
Don't let these fascists off the hook so easily.

Try being a single dad on the dating scene. It's like a yellow star on my shoulder everywhere my profile goes. For fucks sake, even had single mom's tell me they don't date single dads. Legit had a woman tell me I'm cute, but having a kid is a dealbreaker due to her not wanting "baggage." Says the person resorting to online dating.
Thankfully, I found someone and been out of the game for the past 5ish years or so. I can only imagine how much more superficial it all is now.
Zone 10B. I forgot the variety of these, either Velvet Queen or just a generic red sunflower variety. The only red sunflower I managed to grow successfully so far compared to the regular kind.
Also learned how to harvest these seeds so I'm looking to keep a sunflower patch growing indefinitely. Just need to squeeze in another spot in the garden 😅
Trip Report:
Went 2/17/25 to Angeles National Forest for a quick jaunt. Had the trail to myself, there was fresh mountain lion scat alongside the fire road. I took the fire road route as I didn't want to bush whack through poodle dog bush as older reports indicated parts of the trail is overgrown.
I didn't make it fully down to the camp to assess the damage done by previous fires as the doggo was getting a bit tired. I'll probably make another trip in the coming week or two to check out this area as it's been a cool while since the fires came through. I stopped just before the junction where you can descend to the valley floor.
Total mileage: 4.37 round trip

At least the Articuno looks good, probably just stick to getting singles for this set until Team Rocket comes out later this year. What's your chase?
So stoked to see my tomatoes coming through. These are the beefsteak variety as I'm waiting for my Black Krim to sprout. I decides to go hard on producing more veggies and fruits since I been lollygagging on getting around to starting up my raised beds. Got a no til plot that should be ready to plant in, just undecided if I should give that plot to my tomatoes or to corn? What would y'all do? Growing anything juicy this season?
