Yesterday, it occurred to me that I'd been wasting money buying indoor potting mix for decades. All I really needed to do was simply heat sterilize less expensive outdoor potting mix this whole time. I had the means to get it done the whole time. Live and learn.

Der Benzinrasenmäher verträgt es eine Nacht im strömenden Regen zu stehen.

Springt danach normal an.

Still unsuccessfully plugging away at my garden. I have a rogue poppy, a rogue geranium, no echinacea, no lavender, no sage, no cilantro. I don't even have gomphrena even though I got seedlings to sprout three times. I'm gonna make them happen I swear.

All I have are the plants I've always had, and the random alyssum I bought from the hardware store on a whim and three of nine lettuce. Oh and the grocery store mint I saved because my grow anywhere mint didn't survive.

I have more seeds here, so I'm gonna keep trying. Something will grow here. I've ordered native to the region seeds which I will pick up this weekend.

The only time I can't grow anything is during the rainy season, when everything should be established. My goal now is to get anything to that point so it doesnt die between February and April.

I should have stuck to houseplants.
