Summer Gardening

Hey guys! Semester is over, and im enjoying any form of sun that comes out during the summer! I am also doing small gardening here and there, I am random growing chilly peppers and cantaloupe seeds for the fun, and so for they have finally sprouted in my tiny green house I made using a chicken rotisserie plastic case! it works great keeping the dirt moist/warm for the seeds to grow and develop.

I am also for fun growing a rose from a cane. And, this year we had a nice bloom of cherries, 2-3 bowls full! I shared a nice cup of them to my friend, who enjoyed them very highly.

here some photos to share!


Green house-made simply with the Rotisserie plastic case, I always try to find a way to recycle items instead of throwing them away.





And the small sprouts inside, up close.



our cherry tree, zoomed in. We had to pick our cherries pretty quick when they were ready or the birds come in and pick them off for themselves!



and our small yummy morning harvest for today.


And a rose cane which im growing from a pot, just going to experiment and have fun practicing growing roses and such. Pruning/care etc. So I look forward to seeing this cane bloom/grow anytime soon.


Besides that! I am waiting for a package to come to the mail, possibly today. A good friend of mine ordered me a spindle, which I look forward to trying out/practicing to making my own yarn!


Will update as the seedlings grow and see how they develop through out the summer and when I receive my spindle!
