@BrambleBearWhuffling So, this article does NOT recommend using store bought garlic to grow (though I've done it with organic garlic). The store-bought organic garlic did okay, but the bulbs were somewhat small. I do use the top greens in cooking, which are similar to onion tops, but with a hint of garlic. Imho, onions are easier to grow -- even a small bulb (or the onion top) are both very useful in the kitchen.

Has anyone successfully replanted green garlic from store and had it keep growing to become grown-ass adult garlic? Got some from coop yesterday, looks like scallions with purple strips, lots of thick roots still on. Stuck them in water to keep them fresh. Local so they probably have not been out of soil long. Will try with a couple just to see but wondering how likely...

Hello friends!
I am Eden, I am #NewHere, and I like making things grow.
My particular interests include #TreePruning (think: fruit orchards, but also espaliers and bonsai when I'm feeling particularly spicy), figuring out how to grow a #Garden on a plot that is almost 100 % sand and gets little to no rain in the summer months, #BuildingSoil, and collecting interesting vegetable varieties (bonus points if they are black/purple or variegated).
I am a mix of about 50 % idealism and 50 % cynicism. The world is going to shit, but… that doesn't mean we can't try to have nice things while we watch the world burn.
Follow and connect if you want to exchange ideas, passions, seeds or just talk about STUFF. I speak German and English well enough to hold a conversation, other languages might need some more time to decipher.

Die entsprechende Verfahrenstechnik um CO2 großflächig im Boden zu speichern existiert bereits, ist erprobt, kostengünstig und erzeugt nebenbei noch Wärmeenergie.
Ich versteh es mal wieder nicht, warum diese nicht breit ausgerollt wird.
Ist wahrscheinlich wieder zu einfach, zu (doppelt) nützlich und kann keine großindustriellen Ineteressen bedienen.
An oldie but a goodie. This is an excellent introduction to the science of Ecology and how the living world works:

I wrote this introductory blog post a while ago and have worked up the courage to share it here. I use the topic of adoption of rooftop solar in Australia to reflect about the complex intersection between individual action and the wider socio-political context. See what you think: http://notaperfectpermie.com.au/why-i-finally-started-this-blog/

More than half of the trees I've planted are grown from seed, I guesstimate.
Hundreds of trees, dozens of species of tree seeds grown over the last 8 years. Sooo worth the wait...
My heart is overjoyed! 
We are beginning a many years-long #permaculture project out in Veneta OR this year. The first projects will be a good-sized Mandala garden in Zone 1 and dryfarming using, beans, grains and squashes in Zone 5. If successful these are important as our #food systems become ever more challenged.

Was feeling this morning like we've been neglecting the community allotment this year. We've been short staffed and some of our regular volunteers have been unwell. I had a lovely afternoon down there potting up many things that had self seeded accompanied by lots of buzzing bees loving the lungwort and honey berry flowers. Now have many pots of strawberries, chives, foxgloves to pass on and lots of things are growing happily so all ok.
