The first Chernii Prince has appeared, and the "Tarim" finger eggplant has its first flowers. For dessert today, we’re having strawberries and Mayberries again 😋 The first berries are always a high…

Like snails don't eat tomatoes! Of course they nibble on them too! Luckily, I have way too many seedlings! Thank goodness!!!!!🤣

So, after it poured again last night, today was the day. I planted the cucumbers, bell peppers, and a cocktail tomato plant. Tomorrow, I’ll plant the salad tomatoes in their spots. My nearly 3,000-li…

Flowering kale looks great… for seed production

Everything's in place... now it just needs to grow 🙏🏻

@Anza 👋 I took this tour of the garden just for you 😂🤗🫶 ... the pony looked pretty surprised... 😅

Question for the mortar-pot gardeners If I drill holes in the bottom and place the pots on slats (to keep snails out), do I still need a drainage layer? I’m planning to plant sweet potatoes.

Things are slowly starting to happen in the vegetable garden... The old trampoline won’t be a greenhouse after all; instead, it’s serving as a trellis for the pole beans that are finally out, and the…

For all you other columbine fans! :-D It’s been a while now, but these are the self-sown and cross-pollinated flower varieties that appeared in my mother’s garden over the course of a year. Unfortuna…

Hi everyone! I’ve had a bit of a mishap: I mixed up my zucchini (Black Beauty) and pumpkin (Hokkaido) seeds, and now I’m not sure if I accidentally planted the wrong ones 😅 You can actually see a di…

The first two photos are already four weeks old; I think birds were looking for grubs here. After that, I reseeded the carrots and covered the beets. My tomatoes, which I planted in the greenhouse on…

I finally got around to planting everything today 😁

...I did almost nothing in my 'backyard' last year and absolutely nothing this year... so if anyone feels guilty about having too much 'weeds' in their untidy garden—I bet it's nothing compared to mi…

Well, finally got the last of the seedlings out 😍

Today I planted all the tomatoes and bell peppers in the container. I also planted the cucumbers in the greenhouse. I still have to plant the outdoor plants. Everything is growing like crazy. The Afr…

Who is it?

Hi, my physalis has grown really tall. Can I prune it back? Or will that ruin it?

The #cucumbers were the first to be transplanted after the chili peppers. It turned out to be more work than I expected 🥵🥵🥵 The little plants in the new garden probably get less sun, so I’m growin…

Well, we've made a start! The tomatoes are now in place. This weekend, we'll move on to eggplants, bell peppers, and cucumbers.

The garden is playing hooky 🤣

So, yesterday we managed to plant almost everything successfully and without any losses 😅 You almost have to search for the tomatoes among all the huge heads of lettuce—so we went ahead and polished…

...Fiddly work☺️... I need to stock up the freezer...

...someone's gotta be the odd one out 🙄 🥴 ...but the snippets were still delicious...😋...OK, here are the FULL pictures in the comments. ⬇️

I’d love to hear your advice: what can I grow in a raised bed measuring 240x90x30 cm (LxWxH)? I’m a bit worried about the limited height of 30 cm… Unfortunately, it won’t be sitting on soil but on a …

... Have you ever noticed how beautiful a chive flower is? ... It’s made up entirely of tiny lily blossoms 🤩

Thank goodness!!!😁 Almost everything is planted!!!!!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Hey, I just downloaded the Fryd app again and am currently testing it out. I’ve created my own varieties. Can I edit or refine the descriptions later on? I haven’t been able to find a way to do that …

They're almost ready to go outside.

I brought home some asparagus and blood sorrel today P.S. If you want to see the whole picture, check out the comments 👀 😉

The potatoes and various types of cabbage have been in the garden since early April. The bell peppers have been waiting patiently for a long time and will all be moved to pots outdoors starting tomor…

@rhubarb : a) Does harvesting early—like now in May—stimulate leaf growth, so that you can harvest more in June (traditionally June 24)? Or would the stalks harvested earlier be thicker and yield mor…

#beans2026 I’ve actually had good results with direct-sowing beans. But this year, everything’s been pushed back a bit because of the late frosts, and if I want the runner beans to turn out well, I’l…

I think this is going to work out 😃

Since you were such a big help last time, I’m giving it another try! I grew some seedlings from a bush tomato I found at an open-air museum in Alsace. I don’t know if it was the seed, but at some p…

And our other vegetables are growing steadily

The vegetables are growing like crazy here, and in three days, once the weather improves, we’ll harvest a batch for the weekly market.

I still have some plants left... If you live nearby, feel free to take a few!

I had to use up the @radishes, so I roasted them in the oven for the first time—with olive oil and plenty of herbs from my balcony garden, of course. Roasting takes away the sharpness, the orange sal…

And here... critters! :-D I accidentally knocked the lizard into a tub with a brick while mowing the lawn. It was so cold that I was able to catch it. I then put it on the tree with the hole in the b…

I was in the garden on Sunday, too. Here are a few snapshots. Garden beds Flowers Vegetables Three tomato plants were ready to be transplanted. Unfortunately, I’m short on mulch. Grass doesn’t provid…

Today after work, I took advantage of every spare moment on the balcony. They need to go out. Just a little practice before Thursday. I took the day off to plant tomatoes and other things.

Sometimes I wish I could be one of my plants 🤭

Dear Fryd Community, Today, a peek inside the plastic greenhouse. My bell peppers 🫑 finally got to move in today and spread out. The tomatoes 🍅 have been inside since last week and, thank goodness…

Tucked in and with a hot water bottle! No, there was no lullaby 😄

And since I can now 😅, here's another photo... The little map of MY 😁 garden. The caterpillars need nettles to eat, and I've got plenty of those to offer.
