Hmm, alright then. How best would you say to go about practicing?

I am debating if I wanted to try a second time around with the onions, but maybe try more Egyptian Walking Onions instead of traditional white onions; however, I also have debated if I wanted to just switch to the next in the set for crop rotations. I have decided that next year I am going to attempt crop rotations with my four major sub-sections, being two sets of pots, and two raised beds.

I do not have pictures right now, but my plants are doing better. A few more of my peppers in my larger pots are beginning to fruit with more flowers, and a few tomatoes are beginning as well. I feared that my watermelons were dying, but they are back to life and flourishing right now.
With my beds themselves, two of my three tomatoes in the beds are doing alright with one doing better than the other, while the middle tomato plant is dead as dirt for some reason. Similarly my onion bed did not survive the storming we had a week or two ago. Sadly I am going to need to figure out the plan there.
My indoor tomatoes and indoor onions though are doing very well!

I admit I only recently begun to learn about the concept of crop rotation, but it is one that I am attempting to incorporate into this year with my garden. Especially with me having 16 plants specifically in large pots instead of my raised beds, I have to be more aware of that practice.

Hmm, alright then. I did not actually know that, thank you!

I see your invention and raise you one even older! A stick.

Living in an agricultural community where several of the ranches and farms have artificial ponds, I almost wonder how well this would work there. Extra plants and harvest but also the shade created by the plants in theory may help combat some of the evaporation.

CounselingTechie , to Solarpunk technology in This startup is about to install bladeless rooftop wind turbines on box buildings

I was thinking the same thing, how easily the two units could work together.

You put it best, but I approve seeing more trains made.

CounselingTechie , to Self-hosting in Meshtastic

I have been following them for a year or two now, and it is just amazing. I have thought about how hard or easy a system could be built to connect it with lorawan or similar.

CounselingTechie , to Cyberpunk in [TV] Samurai Jack - I wish he'd spent more time in the cyberpunk city

X-49 was one of the most amazing concepts, since it did a good job of showing us a cybernoir story!

CounselingTechie , to Cyberpunk in [Art] From ER to VR

I love how almost 20 years later, it still is shown around as a warning to people.

CounselingTechie , to textsfromsolarpunk in cutting your children off from society doesn't help your children or society

Fully agree with this, having known both parents who homeschooled their children, and the children who were homeschooled. To put it bluntly, I have seen the trauma that many of the children have in how they are controlled and the emotional abuse that their homeschooling did to them because it was their parents controlling every aspect of their life. Now, with the parents, I also shall say the harsh fact that the majority of the parents I know that want to homeschool are the types who want to decide for themselves what their "little genius" will become, creating an entitled image of what they will make their children become, and will not permit anything that isn't their image. The child is not allowed to actually develop.

And I'll say that as a parent.

CounselingTechie , to Solarpunk in Hopepunk, Optimism, Purity, and Futures of Hard Work by Ada Palmer

Thank you for sharing this. I admit, the nature of hopepunk was something I found recently through solarpunk and it kept going in my heart as an ideal to push for, especially in the work and life environment I am in.

That is even more worrying since that isn't normal for your spring season.
