What's best practice in this scenario? ( slrpnk.net )
So I've got this Monstera plant thats been with us for a while but recently got attacked by these tiny tiny black insects that keep eating the leaves. I've actively tried to get rid of them as well as screening this plant away from the rest, but the insects seem to always come back. I've just read that it's possible to spray the...
Well growmies, there's one less predator for my veggie garden this year, my 14 year old dog will Godzilla all the plants she wants in heaven tomorrow. ( lemmy.world )
Seed stash! Most are new from today. ( lemmy.world )
Lots of peas, few different bean options, lots of carrots, some radishes, lettuces, assortment of flowers....
Welcome to Schmidt house friends, I hope you can survive some light frost and neglect. Time to go growmies. ( lemmy.world )
They aren’t going in yet, hopefully slowly over the next week, still need to harden off my starts, but didn’t want to be left with nothing for options either....
New homeowner, just sorta winging it... ( lemmy.world )
Having never owned a house or really had a yard of my own, I got pretty excited and decided to do some ad-hoc landscaping. Built some raised beds for vegetables, and just laying in some organic shaped in-ground beds for low water decorative plants. Gonna fill the rest in with gravel. Any pointers?
the veggie garden is starting slowly. ( lemmy.ml )
Do to a busy life (both good and bad stuff) I had a bit of a late start planting and sowing seeds indoors....
Looks like it'll be the end of May still before I risk planting outside. ( lemmy.world )
Just 1 large one left growmies. All the small ones are done, total will be 144sq/ft real estate. ( lemmy.world )
Progress growmies! ( lemmy.world )

I know it's a little late for most of you, but what's your guys spring lawn care routine? ( lemmy.world )
Me I just got done mine, snow and rain made it a little too wet to do fully, but I dealt with it....
This is my cities 4th false spring. 9 days ago there was 15cm/6" of snow. ( lemmy.world )
Previous post for the reminder...
In progress pic of my new metal raised beds! They are 4' long 2' wide and a foot deep, got 6 of them! ( lemmy.world )
Check off one thing, totally ready growmies. ( lemmy.world )
1.3 yards to fill the entire 3’x40’ flower bed. Cedar mulch.
Weather was nice enough to get one of the raised beds raised another 10". ( lemmy.world )
Size of each bed is 4’x12’. All that’s missing is the 50/50 loam compost mix for the one. Other needs a tilling and the extension as well.
More starts going and more potting ups. My peppers haven't even germed, so I'm gonna have to buy some more than I planned. 21ish more days till planting. ( lemmy.world )
What’s your guys thoughts on a cold frame? I think it could be worth the investment, just for hardening off, but can they take some snow weight?
Bought this a few years ago, probably about time to give it a read. ( lemmy.world )
Aero tomatoes are flowering nicely. Gonna have some reservoir issues with the ageing lid. Can't do much until these have run their course though. ( lemmy.world )
I’m wanting to make a new lid for next time using smaller net pots. These larger ones have been punching through the lid during growth.
Something is growing and I didn't plan it ( lemmy.world )
I think I dropped seeds here many months ago....
It's beginning to look a lot like fuck this. ( lemmy.world )
2-4 centimeters my ass….
Refreshed the bed with new cedar mulch! ( lemmy.world )
I didn’t take a before picture, just an in progress, but I took out the 4 year old mulch, never turned it before. So I ripped it all out, stripped out abount 3 inches of soil and put it in the garden bed. I then put 3 inches of a 50/50 loam compost blend and topped with 3 inches of cedar mulch.

What's everyone's favorite garden flower/plant they are looking forward to this year? ( lemmy.world )
Me, I love my Lillie’s, especially these dark purple ones.
Good news! I think I figured out my tomatoe issue. ( lemmy.world )
Unfortunately, it is user error. My watering timer got switched to day mode instead of 24 hours. So it would only work when it had the light to operate, so it always worked when I was in the room…
How would you spring care for this third year fruiting raspberry. ( lemmy.world )
I’m kinda half regretting the plant to be honest, it’s spreading vicariously, maybe giving it my cannabis nutrient runoff wasn’t the best idea…...
