Container Potato Update and the Bionic Boy


The other day Jaron brought his arm to me and then wore it for three hours. It didn't seem like he wanted it for a specific task, just wanted it on. The day before he held my hand a lot walking around the house and I remember making a couple comments that I needed my hand back for a moment; I needed both hands. I wonder if he felt bad that he only had one. 🤔


Back to homesteading...

I brought my container plants over to our house. Well, technically G did. The plants winter in my in-laws' garage and harden off on their patio. Finally time to get them to our place! They are hanging out in the orchard near the potato containers. 

My experiment in growing carrot and cabbage seeds continues. Looks like I'll be successful with the carrots!


I put a mesh bag over the flowers to catch the seeds. 

My poor aloe plant took a beating with the cold night temps a few weeks ago. I think it'll make it though! 


And now the potatoes. Such luscious leaves! This pot is after mounding. There'll be space for one more mound, I think.
