As you can see they are starting to take over the even larger box and the camera.

For anyone that has been following the success (or maybe lack of success) of my compost bin volunteer tomato plant, it has nearly taken over the compost bin and finally did bear fruit. What is interesting is that it seems to look like an ugly tomato, which I have grown from seed nor purchased from the grocery store or farmer’s market. I guess the plot thickens, could just be…
The volunteer tomato plant that has been growing out of my compost bin definitely looks healthy but given its rapid foliage growth and no fruit I guess I don’t need to do any soil tests to confirm my compost is high in nitrogen. Note to self, don’t grow tomatoes in pure compost.
Over the past year I have created a few different versions of garden planters for growing tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers inspired from my daughter watching a Topsy Turvy tomato planter commercial.

I noticed some of my daisies were getting a little leggy so added 60 more LEDs (red) to my LED grow box.

Given that our last frost date is March 15th and I don’t have a good southern facing window I…

It is great to eat on tortilla chips the same you would for regular salsa or black bean corn salsa. One of my favorite things to do with is as a topping to blackened salmon (salmon grilled with dusting of Cajun seasoning)…

That was a very interesting video; with the way the plants were moving it almost seemed like they were breathing!
Laura, you’re right, I guess they were! Nice video. Its amazing how big they got.
I absolutely love time lapse videos. Great job!
did you take this video using that fancy time lapse camera? What are the specifications of the video shot: pictures shot every hour during the day only, for about how many weeks? Neat stuff! I considered doing an old fashioned time lapse series of photos of my morel mushroom patch, but after 18 months my morels have yet to (visibly) fruit.
