A few sources of free supplies for those who want to grow with less.

1. Free seeds - look for a seed library- check with family owned nurseries at end of season, they have to toss expired seed, they still germinate. Save seed from food - tomato, potato, pepper, squash
2. Free containers. Know anyone in a landscape installation company? Ask them to save you 5 and 15gallon pots. Make newspaper pots, sew felt bags ( get felt at a craft thrift store . )
3. free fertilizer: coffee grounds from neighbors, guinea pig litter or rabbit litter if you know people with pets, bean soaking liquid,

Any recommendations would be appreciated

Ugh I really want to do this but it’s totally outside my skill set

It’s worse with instagram. I debated switching to Pixelfed at first because no one I know is on it. But then I realized I barely see friends content on insta, so it’s not really different, at least on Pixelfed I don’t see adds and only see posts from people I follow.

Personally I find real people and everyday life more interesting than the bland reboots and sequels of movies from my youth.

I think it also makes me a more aware person to watch content from people whose lives are totally different than mine, in different countries, with different abilities.

The only good movies and shows I watch are based on sci fi books or computer games that already did the work of building a plot and characters. And there’s a few really comedic writers that do great work- mostly on Apple TV.

If movie theaters installed electric car chargers and made a package deal for movies and charging they would have plenty of customers.

Let’s not assume every garden has the same Eurocentric seasonal variation on lemmy.

I’m mid season right now. Planting usually starts in October but our rain was super late this year.

Lots of weeding and trying to get my summer veggies started. I usually stop planting anything by June.

Gophers decimated most of my greens and peas, so I’m basically turning my vegetable garden into plant jail. Still have potatoes going they should be ready soon.

I also have friendly raccoons who love digging up my plants, tossing them aside to look for insects. They got so mad about my plant protectors last week I heard them fighting trying to break in.

The thing is, you can do plenty of damage just with gravity. Fly high enough and drop anything and it becomes a weapon. Theres a YouTuber I follow who tried destroying a car by dropping things with a drone. It was scary.
