Nothing says summer like melon🍈🍉

Here’s my melon patch that’s 10x10ft. It mostly consists of watermelon but I do have a few cantaloupe growing as well (the lily pad-shaped leaves). The watermelon I have growing are regular watermelon (red), organic sugar baby watermelon (personal-sized/red), orange watermelon, and yellow golden honey watermelon. I only have about 5 regular cantaloupe growing but it’s common to have different color watermelon where I’m located.

Personally I’ve never grown watermelon but my father’s grandfather grew watermelons on a farm and my dad also grew personal sized watermelon years ago when I was really little but I’ve never done them before (along with the cantaloupe, but I’m super excited anyways).

As you can see everything looks amazing. These were directly sown into the ground around late March to late April. We planted the red and orange watermelon in late March but I couldn’t find yellow watermelon seeds until about mid-late April. The bigger plants are the orange and red watermelons and the cantaloupe is catching up but the yellow watermelon will be our last harvest (but that’s ok because I’ve got a long growing season). This patch gets mostly direct sun but does get shaded at about 6pm and I water twice a day due to how densely everything was planted. Because I’ve never done melons (watermelons specifically), I think I got a little overenthusiastic and over planted so to keep everything nice and healthy, I’ve been watering once in the morning and once in the evening.

While there aren’t any flowers yet, I’m expecting them very soon so stay tuned for an update in a few weeks.

Happy gardening🌱🌿🍉🍈🥰💙

Inktobertale day 3

prompt: coffee

they're at muffet's!

he's soooo exited to be in underswap. he sounds like an absolute lunatic, fanboying over a local café there's no way anyone outside of snowdin's ever even heard of before

for whatever reason i decide to draw them as humans. and whilst i saw ink and dream very clearly in my mind's eye, blue's design was... hard to pin down so to speak.

i wanted them to all look very different,

ink is meant to be very sort (but you can't tell) with big gremlin energy

dream's the genshin impact lookin twink i always knew he could be

and blue was just "oh i guess he should be more bulky? the others both have very warm color schemes so i guess i'll try to contrast with cool colors. hair cut, oh god what hair cut do i give him? he'd probably have something practical"

i ended up spending an ungodly amount of time on this

Okay, time to start the day of jam making/canning!

First up are peach based varieties: peach with cinnamon, peach with ginger (homegrown ginger!), and peach with raspberries.

I only have a few pounds of peaches so the jars will be small and the flavorings added to each jar to infuse the base recipe over time, which is the easiest way to do multiple flavors in small batches.

Okay so Trent absolutely knows shorthand and writes most of his notes in it right?

I think he probably also has horrible handwriting, he writes to fast and it makes his words incomprehensible. He's also dramatic enough to modify the shorthand he knows to ensure nobody knows what he's writing.

My point to all of this is, imagine him forgetting his notebook somewhere and someone from Richmond finds it, maybe Jamie or Roy or Rebecca and they're like "neat let's see what he wrote about me" only to be hit by complete nonsense (to them). Even the bits where he actually wrote something out are just indecipherable scribbles.

I think this is hilarious, the idea has been amusing me all day and I wanted to share it

what's hilarious is we have the same braincell, i literally also was like "does trent NEED to have personalized shorthand that's some sort of elaborate code he knows by heart so that no one can read his notes even if they had time? no. does he? definitely. if confronted he would claim that it's for journalistic integrity reasons, but truthfully it kind of makes him feel like a spy and he likes it." also because while some of it is genuine notes, some of it is just like. stupid shit. grocery list of shit he forgot to get earlier. jotting down a terrible pun ted made or some detail about something ted likes ("taking notes on your crush is both normal and regular behavior so long as no one ever sees or finds about it" trent reminds himself repeatedly)

and it's so much funnier if he also just has terrible handwriting and needn't have bothered bc no one could read it anyway. (same, trent, my brain goes faster than my hands. one time my dad's doctor looked at my handwriting when i was like, ten, and was like "wow, and you're smart kid, too. you should be a doctor when you grow up" dlfkgjdh)

ANYWAY i love the idea of them actively trying to snoop and it's just. complete gibberish. especially if then they're just like frowning down at it and then pan to behind them and trents like "looking for something" slgkjdfg

I wish I had my photo of the last blueberry cobbler I made. Unfortunately my old phone....is in a better place now. And I lost all my pictures.

I was imagining situations where I use Luna and Blueberry in Scarlet and Knight and Cherry in Violet in a double battle and attempt to use Luna’s Sunny Day to boost the power of Blueberry’s Hydro Steam and Knight’s Electric Terrain to boost the power of Cherry’s Psyblade only for the plan to fail because Blueberry and Cherry are faster so they just use their signature moves before they can be boosted by the environment only for me to check their species’ Speed stats on Bulbapedia and discover the average Roaring Moon (119) is faster than the average Walking Wake (109) and the average Iron Valiant (116) is faster than the average Iron Leaves (104). Of course they’re all quite close so it mainly depends on the individual members of each species and it’s entirely possible Blueberry and Cherry are faster than Luna and Knight

III 16 spoilers

I'm so unhappy with what they did with blueberry, like yeah I like the concept of that arc but I think it would have worked better if they had him for like at least one more epiosde, of course I'd say two (balloon and Nickel getting eliminated one after antoher or soemthing like that)

like I just think it dosen't work because it happens to fast

silver spoon was good this epiosde but silver spoon is always good in every III epiosde

Me, being a damn freight-train of productivity for two weeks, with only minor energy crashes once a week: "Okay, doing... Super good. Keep the momentum, just keep the momentum going, we'll be able to rest once the place is set up atleast a lil bit and Piki can come here with me-"

*unexpected delays in plans, ppl not answering my calls because of said delays and workload juggling, UPRAVNA ENOTA, unexpected expenses, and other things that kept happening in these two weeks that were building up, catching up with me*

Me, waking up very much NotOkay™️: "O-okay, let's survive this, we'll survive this, it will be fine, we can have a proper crash after this week-"

My period, that I knew was coming:

[gardenstateofmind]

it's funny bc nj is the most densely populated state, but that's bc our cities are insanely populated, like the area where i live is just straight up farmland
