And they have germinated!<br/><br/>Seeded with winter rye and hairy vetch. Hairy vetch is a legume and should fix nitrogen. I’ll dig them back into the soil sometime in May. Maybe earlier if the vetch looks like it might go to seed.<br/><br/>These rolling bags on the deck are great for enabling my partner with serious spinal-related disabilities to still do gardening!<br/><br/>#gardening #WinterCoverCrop<br/> <img src="https://cdn.masto.host/rubysocial/media_attachments/files/113/528/358/000/623/927/original/dcb7a66154993bee.jpeg"> <br/> <img src="https://cdn.masto.host/rubysocial/media_attachments/files/113/528/360/066/927/313/original/0850187eff6ca685.jpeg"> <br/> 2024-11-22T20:02:37Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsq4v3xpv2qsffjsgkscdjxursrjc3mlfd5y5p6suqhvr2fltgtrtczypsvc08r2zv7hl9ezrusmqwf3jcwr7a8jc4pc5kwkyjfx655txcayfqhwcd In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs2888xmlzd9yh674zuvt3k30fprax6mhtt40j332rv7gf0rf9qljsp4hruh'>nevent1q…hruh</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>I don’t know much about hakas but I love what appears to me as a profound combination of fury and delight! 2024-11-14T16:32:40Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsv8vpldtdupe4le4jc5x760mdcglerrlwx3yz8u54ly780u7c2lzczypsvc08r2zv7hl9ezrusmqwf3jcwr7a8jc4pc5kwkyjfx655txcayt8san8 Right now it’s hard for me to imagine the future, partly because it’s so dark, and partly because just wtf!<br/><br/>Yesterday I composted a bunch of plants from the garden and saved seeds to maybe help make a possible future I can’t see right now …<br/><br/>Four kinds of beans and peppers, radishes, and fennel. <br/><br/>More info in the alt-text.<br/><br/>#SavingSeeds #compost #gardening<br/> <img src="https://cdn.masto.host/rubysocial/media_attachments/files/113/466/198/499/661/381/original/eeca3349eecd05df.jpeg"> <br/> <img src="https://cdn.masto.host/rubysocial/media_attachments/files/113/466/198/505/365/004/original/f5a05e0361bddb78.jpeg"> <br/> <img src="https://cdn.masto.host/rubysocial/media_attachments/files/113/466/198/472/605/535/original/a6723ff762259d31.jpeg"> <br/> <img src="https://cdn.masto.host/rubysocial/media_attachments/files/113/466/198/526/539/459/original/68895e5454b99d5e.jpeg"> <br/> 2024-11-11T20:34:28Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqs055qsuhvd8l9rrtylxlu5q52qx0svsanagtmxq92ltw0v2yc9wsgzypsvc08r2zv7hl9ezrusmqwf3jcwr7a8jc4pc5kwkyjfx655txcayp4wdel In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsff7kp4rgke5rc2xhk0vh237whx9l9xdv2d8tt833kerqkxhwn55gpwsxze'>nevent1q…sxze</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>here’s a tiny tree frog I found holding onto a single small leaf on a plant in a fabric bag container on my deck garden!

When it reacts and damages cells those O3 molecules are changed into other forms. If you have plants that more susceptible to damage from O3 they can get some protection by making green O3 fences with bushy sacrificial green leaf plants with lots of leaf surface area. 2024-08-08T02:22:50Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqszc88sywyhueufkyu23mgphajru2ft0p4szl95chgfmsygttm8xegzypsvc08r2zv7hl9ezrusmqwf3jcwr7a8jc4pc5kwkyjfx655txcay7srwds Zinnias from my daughter’s garden yesterday!
