Earlier this winter I came to the conclusion that Buddy Aloe had once again outgrown his home. This was evidenced by the fact that he was too damn big for his pot. I'd rather not play re-pot roulette every 4 months with a plant that keeps trying to take my eyes out every time I … Continue reading The Final(?) Repot of Buddy Aloe

Buddy aloe gets a new home

I had a matching low bowl to the one I put the alpine strawberries in, so I cleared it of dead and dying succulents and set it into the vacant pot opposite … Continue reading Quinalt strawberries are finally in their new home

Even when it screws me. I've got powdery mildew on nearly everything, and lord only knows what this will do … Continue reading Captain’s log: July 12th 2019
