Ok so I think I'm done with my planting for this year I'll be keeping watch of my seeds as well and will post when they start coming up I have all my seeds untagged (was being lazy) tho everything is actually planted
Somehow my mom managed to steal like half the pots for her rubbish flowers (you can't eat them so why bother?) then also managed to get the peppers she wanted (not the ones I thought could be nice/different) but I did do one pot with my seedlings and some seeds so we have direct compairison store baught to seeds to seedlings and if I get even 2-3 fruits from the seeds (each one) then I'll be happy
So on to the pics? See how much of what I planted that I remember? (flowers I don't know names on most)
There's one that shows 4 of my moms flower pots the 2 larger I planned and planted the 2 smaller one on left has lettuce seeds one on right has a mix of things including cotton seeds money plant and a bunch more lol (like 4-5 things mixed up together lol)
Just another pic of the first set
There's the 2-tier the top I'm considering "unplanted" because the lilacs were not to survive a normal winter here and they were saved because I couldn't stand to watch them get tossed like garbage when they weren't there's also a purple it looks columbine in the top that just kinda appeared so I thought would save it let it grow then take and put it wherever we wanted (that was to survive even in there)
The bottom was another planned/planted by me there's mostly petunias in there (funny cause 2 years ago my mom said she was "sick of petunias")
That's just a mini rose that we got at the grocer it will have to atleast be outside for winter I honestly don't know what it's fate will be or will it will get planted tho
The outher mini rose --same deal with this one as well
Our raspberry plant in a container
We thought it would be something different the neighbor has one that you may have heard me call a weed before that has not only spread into our yard but into our grass as well
This one I'm planning of putting in the garage for winter or somewhere sheltered I'm zone 5 that says hardy zone 4 to like -30 but I don't wanna chance more then nessiary
On a side note there's carrot seeds all along the ring around the strawberry plant
There's the pepper plants my mom wanted --there's sweet bananna mucho nacho and garden salsa all her choosing
On a side note her ideal of a "compromise" is "my way or nothing at all" that's entirely NOT what I know as a compromise but if the tart sod is happy enough to not make fun of me for the stupidest things (like not making some drink) then I guess I can deal even if there not peppers I'll do more then save seeds from
The tomato planter --there's coyote abe Lincoln and yellow brandy wine tomatoes and a lime basil plant all were started by me the tomatoes were a little leggy so I did bury them some (cause they are good with it)
I did also scatter lettuce seeds in the container as well
The outher pepper planter--this one has seeds (in the green trying to hold humidity) and plants that I started --now when one of the plants we baught had buds for flowers starting and these don't I think y'all can tell these are nowhere near as far along as those but it will be fun to see the progress on all 3
My beloved windowbox! Let's see of I can remember everything lol (seeds and plants)
Dill parsley sage (reg and pineapple) rosemary thyme lemongrass lemon nip catgrass garlic lemon verabena garlic chives stevia Greek oregano chocolate mint --hmm there might be a few things I missed? We will see when the seeds start coming up
Onions there's red (you can kinda see some of them) yellow and white I'm hoping I can get some decent sized bulbs from these maby some seeds too? Switch one sets to get bulbs one seeds to get sets? I know we will have a good few hopefully this year lol
Another of my moms flowers there's "snappers" (my nickname for snapdragons like my mom calls rosemary twigs) beauty berry poppies possibly a few things I don't know ATM and a columbine as well
The mint pot --this pot had weeds in it for a couple years it has no drainage (the reason I choose mint) it also had some ashes dumped in it a couple years back but now it seems to have great soil!
Ok do what's in it? There's seeds for lemon mint anise mint peppermint spearmint and lol another mint that I can't think of ATM lol then the plants are --to the left is ky colonel spearmint the top fruitasia mint the right mojito mint and the bottom cotton candy mint
I do plan on harvesting and drying the leaves trying to save the seeds if I can and having tons of mojitos and even teas with these leaves I'm thinking only now *might* I have enough mint
The container itself is not to be near the grass and I won't let the mint crawl down it near what I call too far so that it can't be mint and spread like crazy apart from in that pot lol
