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

Well it hasn’t been a great year here in the Northwest for summer vegetables but got enough tomatoes and peppers to make some salsa and get stocked up with enough jalapeno pepper powder (been great on omelets) until next year. With a larger abundance of ripe jalapeno peppers this batch of peppers have a more festive look to them. Here are the peppers ground up, as you can see…
Here in the Seattle area we are, as you say, latitudelly challenged. We are fortunately to have the Pacific Ocean to give us mild winters and summers though our distance from the equator provides our plants with less intense light and a relatively short growing season for summer crops. One in particular difficult summer crop are peppers. This is important because one of the major exports of my garden…
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. Here is a quick summary of the different options which you can click the link for full instructions how to build on yourself. 2 Liter – The Original — This is the one that started it all. Very simple…
I came across this interesting concept for an automated grow light. It uses a photoresister to detect when lights get low and proceeds to turns on some red LEDs to provide the plants a few extra hours of light. From my experience if you are growing indoors, your seedlings can use as much supplemental lighting as they can get and would recommend turning them on when there is light…
On of a common questions I still get is, do you still grow tomatoes upside down? Does that really work better than just planting in the ground? Well I decided to do a little experiment and start several tomato plants from seeds and grow two in an official Topsy Turvy planter, two in the ground with fertile soil, and one in a homemade self watering container. Each plant was…
When you start seeds indoors in a vegetable garden, it can be difficult getting your schedule down to ensure that start your vegetable seeds with enough lead time that they are mature enough to venture outside but also not so large they take over your growing area. Personally this has been a difficult part for me where I am really good getting the early vegetables started on time (onions, peppers,…

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.
