Posted on May 17, 2022May 17, 202205/16/2022 south of the river An update from the Texas home garden this past week! Pink brandywine tomato flowering in Mom and Dad’s container planter garden last week. White currant tomato flower buds. The red rubin basil has appreciated an increased watering regime. First marigold bloom! The ones up here in Norman in my garden are just getting their first and second sets of true leaves. Last Wednesday, note the size of mustard greens. They sure grew over just a few days! In fact, they grew enough that Mom harvested some. Mom sauteed them in butter, oil, and white vinegar with salt, pepper, and a lemon juice top off at the end. Sources say it was good.
Posted on January 29, 2022January 29, 2022Tomatoes for Mom All three kinds up! Once a tray is all up, I move it immediately to the stronger natural light of the plant window from its original place in the dimmer UV light on the heating pad. After a few days I’ll probably start taking them to the porch too for even stronger light.
