Fill up with dirt, make a hole and drop the Brownies in and water lightly.

Supposed to be “moving” but nothing strenuous, so at least I can spend all day doing something like this. My surgery couldn’t have came at a more perfect time really. Would have sucked to have my plants ready to go and be stuck not being able to plant them after frost. I couldn’t install a green house though. The timing wouldn’t work well by the time I will be able to build it. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Panamalt@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 year ago (1 child) My issue is I'm literally moving states in a couple months, so everything has become about making that happen. Wouldn't get a chance to enjoy any plants before then anyway. Gardening (or any outside time) really is the perfect thing for recovering, glad the timing worked out. Maybe you could get a greenhouse set up for next year? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] SchmidtGenetics@lemmy.world [S] 3 points 1 year ago* (1 child) Dang that’s unfortunate. Next place able to have a garden though? That’s the plan. I need to destroy/modify a small portion of my raised garden beds, so it’s end of season or during spring cleanup. The soils workable for a few weeks while it’s still too cold to transplant. If I do end of season, I could maybe push some potted veggies if I have extras so I know what to expect for next year. Got lots of plans, life keeps getting in the way, but figuring it out. I’m like 60% through a backyard modification from last year. But atleast a good portion should be ready to planted out this year. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Panamalt@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago I really hope so. My parents are actually moving to the same-ish area, worst case I'll have to hangout with them on the weekends or something. My mom loves to garden, so there will definitely be a space at their house (that I'll probably get conned into building, lol). Got lots of plans, life keeps getting in the way . . . Hey, that's my thing, hahaha. Progress is always progress, and 60% is pretty dang good, easily 80% more than most of my projects. I wish you the best of luck with all your photosynthisizing endeavors. Considering the current state of everything, this is some good in the world. permalink fedilink source parent
