Relaxed Lester's Garden Photos

[Lester Freeman]

Those iris' are beautiful. And I've always loved looking at mature broccoli. The bees around these parts love broccoli flowers. And now, you've gone and made me hungry, I've gotta go plant a bunch of radishes now! I love how quickly radishes finish. Good work on your garden, may it be green and bountiful throughout the year.

Thank you kindly!

I will keep thinking about it, my above ground multi shapes and sized pots are nothing compared to your beautiful plot always tempted to start tearing up the rental back yard and fill it with a few raised 4'X10's.. One day! Until then I will look at your pics and imagine I am tending to a field like that

You are too kind brother!!!

Tonight we had the lettuce, radish, and brocolli mixed together in a salad and it was absolutely amazing! The Romanaesco brocolli is some of the best tasting brocolli I've ever had. Only took over a year to grow. Amazing.!!

Kudos on a delicious homegrown meal Les, I am sure a lot of others are jealous as am I!
One of the best feelings consuming your own home grown nutrition, veggies, fruit, herb, whatever it may be.

Happy skunkday Les may the sun gods shine down perfect rays for your crops!

 

[Lester Freeman]

Thank you kindly brother!

Happy Skunkday!

Rather large photo dump of the current plants and flowers from the garden

Mixture of Black Pearl, Tasti-Lee, and Rainbow Heirloom Blend tomato seedlings

Those Honey Bun Cantaloupe seedlings

The Monster Heirloom Romanaesco brocolli

Rose bush vegetating

Cat and Tortoise ( Fang and Methusula - she looks mean but she's actually very playful and nice

The smaller Brocolli plants, one of them far into flower, the stuff tastes the best straight off the plant, yummy flavor better than any brocolli I've ever had, and is quite a sight to watch flower

Some of the strawberry plants enjoying the sun and shooting out a couple of berries here and there

That flowering white Lily

Orange-pink pheno of the hybrid bearded Iris

That wild mint and flowering Sage buds

And a batch of radishes

Looking like springs in the air around there. I guess I need to get off my lazy azz and start afew seeds for my veggies this year. Looks great my friend. Keepem Green

Nice update. Love your tortoise. I miss CA

Sometimes I forget how nice the climate is down there. Here in WA, we started tilling this week since the snow finally melted, but most of us are afraid to plant yet. We know not to trust it!

Very nice. I'm jealous you have lettuce now. Our lettuce SEEDS are going in this weekend.
I already have a bunch of starts started in the bathroom (tomoatos, peppers, etc). This year will be the first food garden. I got the spot all tilled up last Fall and got our garlic in.

Nice! Start your engines!! The lettuce we have is actually from the seeds we knocked off last years lettuce crop that we flowered and went to seed, we just hit the plants with a stick and the seeds laid dormant for a few months and grew back starting in December, didn't actually have to plant any, seems to be the easiest way to do it It's nice to see cannabis journals side by side regular garden ones, one is a food one is a medicine Good luck with those seeds my friend

Thanks b.real! Yeah, she may be a little too feisty for you

Really nice photos Relaxed Lester .I like those grow bags and wonder if they are temp pots or will you grow them out in them?
I have been wanting to start seeds this month of some varities but the snow covers our frozen ground still. I' ve been seeing birds like robins and canadian geese coming back the last couple weeks to little to no food,They sure are winging it through some tough times those poor things they have to be thinking

 

[Ascended Master Kief]

Mmmmmm, maters. Is that another tortoise? Looks neat!

 

[RainStacks]

So much great stuff since I last checked in! I am so glad to hear the Broccoli turned out! When I grew some myself I was amazed at how much tastier it was than store bought. All that love and time pays off! Your garden is looking lovely my friend! Looks like Methuselah was about to go to town on that succulent?
