Nice harvest !

The Ruth Stout method is really amazing. And it also works with other vegetables.

So far I’m using it for zucchinis, tomatoes, corns, eggplants, squashs and beans.

Using hay (fresh grass and dried ones) if you have a large garden is really nice.

The dev also works on a lemmy-reddit like.

It is at an extreme early stage but if you like honk you could like it too.

If you only want a single-user instance you can go with honk.

Right now I host it on my rpi3 under a vlan connection (1000kbps/125kbps). No struggle, 120mb in ram for an uptime of 80 days. Following nearly 40 accounts on 15 instances.

It’s a lovely read. A piece of fresh air with but only kindness in it.

It’s nice to have some SFF where wars, treasons and deaths are non-existent.

Hoe, sickle and scythe.

Not really a fan of Language, but Clairvoyant… Oh boy that album is a masterpiece.

Thanks for the suggestion. It was really hard this year to plan a garden without seeing to big for a first timer.

But yeah, onions would be nice.

It really amazed me how corns are growing even if I do not water them. The experiment will be renewed next year in a larger bed.

Scything is great. Previously I had a tractor mower and one day, after several hickups, repairs, it brokes and I had enough.

I invested in a a good scythe (wood adjustable handle, and a blade from one of the last edge-tool maker in Europe). 2000m² takes quite some time but I let the field to be much taller than I used to do with a mower. In 2023 I only scythed one time (I am starting the second round just now). I also have a small manual mower (helicoid/spiral blade) wich I also use just in my yard.

And for a bonus: no gasoline, no smell, no sound !!!

Sometime they can bloom with a little offset on the same plant.

That’s why it’s good to have a few plants to create interactions between them.

Female flowers can also be fertilised by hand.
