It's very cool. There is such a wonderful variety of plants and colors. Beautiful place.

What a great spot, thanks for sharing. Do you have to do much for them or is it mostly about letting nature do nature things?

Yes

It's your home instance. Lemmy.world is blocking vpns.

I've referred to him as MBS since he took over the FiA. It isn't meant to spark controversy, they are literally his initials.

Idk if the replies about the MBS in Saudi Arabia are meant to be snarky, bring awareness, or if people are incapable of managing context clues for abbreviations.

I'm smoking weed about it.

On today's episode of things clowns say, MBS.

It's too early to be this hungry! Why do you have to post such delicious foods!

P.S.

Please stop removing the crickets.

I keep sending them to bring me back some of these meals you post and you keep putting them outside. Stop it. Thank you.

All praise to microplastics, or as my body uses them, "replacement joint spacers."

Who needs discs and cartilage when eventually plastic will fill the space anyway?

Currently working on How To Tell When We Will Die and enjoying it much more than I anticipated. I plan to post something about it when I get it finished.

Edited to add image.

Whatever life Michael and his family have it should be respected and left out of the public eye if that's what they want. Having said that, it's nice to hear that he/they are doing well enough to be around friends and family.

I hope time has helped them adjust and heal.

First time?

Looks great as usual fam.

You've inspired me to care a bit less and just have a go haha. Thanks :)

Awesome! Best of luck with whatever you decide to try!

I can definitely understand the garden and gardening being a cherished protected space. Everyone's vision of that is going to differ yet we can all be successful, and I think that's one of the most magical things about it!

One of my pet peeves is when people try to shoehorn everything into a one size fits all, my way or it's wrong mentality. I'm not that way and gardening certainly doesn't have to be that way whether it's soil, hydroponic, aeroponic, etc etc.

The zucchini I'm growing is being done with my own homebrew methodology simply because I know it works for me and my life. I happen to like harvesting zucchini every 2-3 days, so in this case I've used a much smaller than "normal" reservoir that keeps me to that schedule. It keeps me motivated to keep the plants harvested and the tanks topped up at regular intervals without feeling like a chore. Other times I put them in huge over sized reservoirs, it just depends on what my vision for the space and the plants is at any given time. This time it happens to be "kratky" with a personal twist.

The right way is whatever works for you.

I'm all for taking back our food production for anything and everything it's practical to grow. I've found that soil free methods offer the added benefit of fewer pests when used outdoors and effectively none when used indoors unless something hitches a ride inside. Less mouths sucking leaves = guilt free bountiful harvests for me/us!

Sometimes it's nice to offload troublesome outdoor plants out of the garden and into some other method so you have more time and space to make the most of the outdoor spaces. The sky is the limit.

What hydro method are you using? The lazy one where the water just gets used up (kranksy or something)?

The zucchini in this post would be considered kratky hydroponic but they do well in pretty much any of the common systems. Whatever method fits your life will probably be just fine for the squash too.

If we have to be full of microplastic it should be homemade.
