with the romas and the zucchinis germinated, transplant is probably only a week away, maybe less. once they have true leaves we’ll start hardening them, and that will only take a day or two.

so, time to consider trellis plans.

we have some bamboo and twine, which will hopefully be enough to make a simple DIY solution that will be cheap, reusable, and if it truly breaks, compostable. so expect to be flooded with pics of those in a week or so lol

the grape and roma tomatoes are technically bush and not vine, but i think we’ll trellis anyway to keep the fruit off the ground. we do really minimal pest control, and preventative measures like that are part of it. not that that’s ever stopped an aphid, but maybe a slug or two...

#gardening #also time to start looking at mulch. we have a little and i think it’ll be all we need #i dont really feel comfortable running to the store for more as its not so essential obviously #btw- seed aquisition was done by using already owned seeds or picked up from grocery stores during existing food runs #which we do once every ten days. so if you are following my gardening adventures #remember that a hobby isnt essential #dont put workers at risk.#and support striking workers #and contact your local org #etc.
