SeaFury 🦜🍉A gorgeous warm day after yesterday’s lows. I am sitting on the deck and can smell spring flowers in Autumn. The climate is topsy turvy 👀😳 Here are my sweetpeas going crazy #GardeningAu #climateChange

ghost_shit 🪣The last of the blood plums. I'm not sure exactly how much plum I have to deal with, because my scales max out at 5kg.
The herbs and vegetables that give me the most food in winter
Yvonne Perkins"Since February 2024, Adelaide has only received around 300 millimetres of rain — the driest it's been since the city's weather records began in 1839.
During the same period, Sydney has been drenched by more than 2,000mm, nearly 500mm above average, and is facing possibly another 50mm during the coming week."
The cause of this? Uncharacteristically, Tasmania has had a lot of high pressure systems sitting over the state causing easterly winds over the south of mainland Australia bring rain to the east coast and stopping the westerly winds that typically bring rain to South Australia and much of Victoria.
Not good for gardening!

Keira (She/Her)The garden looks terrible right now, full of dying vines and barely standing seedlings.
But I'm still harvesting the last bits of summer fruit, which is great. Chillies, capsicums, and tla couple of figs that the birds and bats missed.
FeralFoodShirt now quarantined outside till whatever decided to crawl in and bite the shit out of my shoulder decides to bugger off.
Melbourne BitterI finally tore out my tomato plants this week and I'm using the last few green tomatoes and some homegrown chillies to make a lactofermented salsa.
Everything from the garden is diced along with some onion, garlic and some vine leaves I liberated from a neighbours garden. I'll let it bubble away for two or three weeks and see how they go.
