Very excited about my new stupidly expensive cultivar of tomato- 'Silbertanne'. It's special in terms of these very bushy fronds. Super cool!
They grow up so fast... Goes without saying that 2025 is going to be a very lucrative pepper year!
Bell pepper 'Sweet Banana'
I just love chili's, especially at this very precious stage. So fresh and wonderfully green. (This is also the stage before they get annoyingly tall, so I savor these moments lol)
The peppers are poppin' off!
Chili 'Jalapeño', 'Scotch Bonnet'
Bell pepper 'Sweet Banana', 'Ora Long'
The indoor setup for the 2025 growing season is complete! Brand new shelves makes the best out of the space. Planted: Chilis x6, Bell peppers x3, Vervain x4 & Pelargonium x2
You'll always be proud of growing a giant tomato.

A chunk of my garden at sunset. I built this section in 2024 after removing our (unusuable) greenhouse. I adored how lush it looked over the season.
Huge potato harvest with little effort!

Playing Disco Elysium at 4 in the morning and going outside to this absolutely beautiful yellow light illuminating the rain-splashed garden at its absolute peak. The special light, sights, the smells and being in the DE headspace culminated into an absolutely unreal experience. Bright summer mornings are simply ethereal.
Snapping a few photos is unable to capture the feeling itself, but I'm glad I have the moment preserved regardless. -Then I had Kim waiting for me when I got back inside!
Cucumbers are quick growers!
Cucumber 'Marketmore'

Getting ready to plant my chitted potatoes!
Stay tuned for my blog post about growing potatoes in mulch without having to work the ground at all!
A beautiful 'chitted' potato ready for planting! Chitting is letting the seeded potato sprout by keeping them in a bright, cool place. This gives them a huge head start once in the ground!
