There's fresh snow on the ground outside, and the tent is getting frosty too. F23
How much does Lemmy compress uploaded pictures? Viewing it back on voyager it’s hard to see detail.

Looking good dude! I should have finished an indoor cycle while I was waiting for the outdoor season to start, I still have a month to go before I put mine in the ground. So now I'm jealous. Oh well.
Thanks man!
Sometimes a break is nice to spend that time on something else though, I wish I could grow outside but the situation isn’t very conducive for it. BUT this weekend I gotta figure out and plan out my garden to get my seeds going. I still have 2 more months of frost, so I’m hoping to have some decent monsters ready to transplant after 8 weeks.
This could also all go out the window though, waiting for my carpal tunnel surgeries, so if those wind up being at the wrong times, may need to just do what’s easy and toss the starters.
Edit, I think the timing may be about right.
These tomatoes are about 3 weeks old, planning on keeping them in the tent though.
I've never grown outside, I'm super excited. It fits my growing philosophy better than indoor does, and the yield potential is INSANE so that's nice.
What kind of produce crops are you doing? Are you doing your starts aeroponically too? Have you done indoor tomatoes ever or just these? I bet you could grow some monsters judging by the weed you put up.
In a greenhouse? Or gonna be fighting the standard mildew and bugs? I live on a mainstreet siding a large escarpment, so no place to really “hide” it to follow local legislation too.
Last year was carrots, radishes, cucumbers, peas, tomatoes and peppers. This year more of the same and maybe some other stuff. Brocolli didn’t work out too well one year, lettuce is hit or miss. I wanted to expand to put more in, but life happens.
I did peppers that I thought were originally tomatoes, does that count? Haha
I did put up a greenhouse. The government says it has to be in an "enclosed, locked space out of plain view of the street" which I think sucks, because I believe that cannabis should be treated no different than caffeine. I recognize that's a pipe dream, and it's a pretty controversial opinion that's gotten me "atted" a number of times, but cannabis has so many benefits with such few drawbacks that I find it hard to take them seriously.
I live in a quiet neighborhood, next to a cemetery, with a sheer drop at the back; so if it were up to me, I'd call my fence good enough. Alas, the government can't just leave people alone. I'm expecting this first season to be a learning experience more than a viable crop. I always try to set my expectations low, that way I'm never disappointed.
That's cool! I'm doing most of that stuff too, plus potatoes and watermelons. It's my first time doing watermelon and I'm pretty excited.
I'll allow it. How was the yield?
That’s a gray area and what I’m worried, you can see most of my backyard from the hill coming down the street. So would need to be in a greenhouse, and I would want to grow year round, so someone will notice the light eventually…
There’s also a large natural hill/escarpment that parallels the community.
I tried potatoes on the deck, but the frost got them, and never start the watermelons or the pumpkins early enough, that’s my reminder to get them going this weekend! Thanks.
What mountain is that in the background? I live in Illinois so my view, although gorgeous, is pretty heckin' flat
Oh man… that’s not a mountain, that’s just a hill for the valley I live in. It’s part of a provincial park though.
I do have the Rockies a few hours to my west!
My personal view of them, that hill is part of a dump, and should be taken down in the next few years giving me a little view back, and you can see the other side of the valley on the left, other picture would be turned 90 degree right from this image.
Downtown and the mountains in the backround.
Beautiful view man is that the greenhouse for the ladies?
When there's nothing but corn for miles around everything looks like a mountain 😂 that does kind of ruin it, being a dump. I know from experience how glacially slow governments move, hopefully they give you your view back.
Canada is such a beautiful place. I had a great-uncle that farmed weed on Nova Scotia for decades, he had an ocean view that was absolutely gorgeous. The closest mountains to me are the Smokies, and that's still like an 18 hour drive which sucks. Especially when the Boundary Waters/Quetico are only 9, it's hard for me to vacation anywhere else. Last summer I illegally crossed the border to smoke a joint on Canadian soil, don't tell the mounties 😂
That is my greenhouse for the ladies! It's just a little 8x10 I got on Amazon. It's jank as fuck and needs serious modifications. I started 5 seeds next to my produce crops, so if they take off I'll cull the unhealthy plants that I have now. Weed farming has kind of taken a back seat thanks to the move but I'm about to start in force. I've tilled my whole greenhouse by hand (every good notill bed starts with tillage, unintuitively) and yesterday I sowed my cover crop as well as some native prairie grasses in strategic places around the property. The nice thing about my indoor grow was how close to an outdoor grow it was- I already practiced regenerative agriculture techniques, now I just need to do it a little bigger! I'm planning on making a post about my whole setup soon but there's still some work I have to do first.
Hahaha that’s fair, we tend to take it for granted how close we are to the mountains. Banff is only an hour and a half from our door. On the dump, non-plussed was there when we bought, and it’s a commercial dump, so mainly safe construction garbage type materials. Theres a church that wants their land back, so it’s gonna get dealt with sooner than later I imagine.
You more of a summer sport or winter sport person? Not many people are able to take day trips from their house to go snowboarding :D
I think it’s customary for them to partake actually, it’s your own guys on the way back that’s the problem.
I look forward to an update, enjoy the holidays growmie.
Your app likely has an option to enable HD images. There should also be a button once the image is already open.
Viewing other pictures doesn’t seem to degrade the image. I don’t know if they are lemmy hosted or externally though.
I’ve also never heard of that feature or option before on any of these viewers. Got an example? It’s also not just the app, web view is the same thing.
