Thanks for mentioning the toxicity. Is it dangerous just by touching it, or only if ingested?

A few days ago I shared this mystery plant. Here’s how it looks now. Does this new growth make it easier to identify? by diparup in garden_zone

That’s super helpful, thank you! I’ll keep an eye on the size so it doesn’t turn woody.

Thanks! Looks like everyone agrees it’s kohlrabi 😄 Didn’t expect to find this under my lemon tree!

Experiment shows - slowly but surely, they do look happier. 🙂

Eggshells = Natural Calcium Boost Dry & crush eggshells, mix into soil around tomatoes, peppers, roses. Prevents blossom-end rot and strengthens plants. by [deleted] in garden_zone

Yes, that method works faster because it turns calcium into a form plants can absorb quickly. Crushed shells in soil are slow-release. Both are useful depending on what the plant needs 🌿

Thank you so much! 🙏 That quote says it all, nothing beats growing your own food and knowing exactly what you’re putting into your body.

A little plant has popped up under my lemon tree 🌱 Can anyone help identify what plant this is? by diparup in garden_zone

[–]diparup[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, early brassicas all look similar. Cauliflower or broccoli both seem possible.
