waterboy 2.0 Posted September 24, 2015 (edited) He'd be tasty I reckon.....been feeding him good Wouldn't be all "doughey" The chamo made it through in pots with absolute neglect....thats a good sign. I am thinking carrots.... More garlic in the middle, the leek project is about to get moved on. I've selected my parent stock, closer to the middle - except the bastard that has bolted to seed. I want a better leek . Knocked out some silverbeet seedlings, sowed some peas and snow peas. I reckon the minus degree nights are nearly done, propaggedon is coming....lol Edited September 24, 2015 by waterboy 2.0 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

flora Posted October 17, 2015 now thats a cute lizard that scar looks a bajillion times all better too. do you keloid? whats the tree with the magnificent blueness? i keep seeing this blueness in bloom all over the show 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
waterboy 2.0 Posted October 19, 2015 No luckily I am not a keloid scar candidate. I am pretty chuffed with how the "cut here" lines have healed up. The "blue flowering bush" is a Ceanothus sp. and can't remember the cultivar planted there Flora. They do put on a stunning display of colour. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

waterboy 2.0 Posted November 4, 2015 I tried worms for the dog crap, but couldnt keep it working during the cooler months alas. To much protein in it as well I think. Could go to compost, but I dont want it in me humus...lol also been thinking maybe feed it onto bamboo....but not a species that can make good edible shoots. the Redbud is flowering up - Ozothamnus rosmarinifolius, makes a top notch cut-flower. First season in-ground for Apios americana, growing on the other side of the "hops" shed. Survived waterlogged and frozen soil.......with no root containment I reckon this will boom (many thanks Franky ) 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
