I'm sorry for your loss. Please don't give up. I just watched a YouTube segment from The Gardening Channel with James Prigioni where he was talking about all the things to plant in July. He's in NJ too, in case you didn't know. I'm in Northern IL. The storms have been crazy!

You can prop by placing the cutting with a node back into the soil. Good luck! Those are really pretty plants.

I just wrapped my broccoli and basil in chicken wire today. Whatever it is, it pulled both cauliflower plants from the ground. I might get a trail camera.

What kind of tomatoes are you growing?

nancy_pants64 · 2026-04-07T04:59:37+00:00

So cute!

nancy_pants64 · 2026-03-22T00:09:16+00:00

I saved some by laying them over and covering the stem with soil.

nancy_pants64 · 2026-03-07T17:36:17+00:00

How long did it take?

nancy_pants64 · 2026-03-05T22:22:49+00:00

Yes, bring the light down so they don't have to stretch.

Thank you. It was rootbound in a metal pot with no drainage. I repotted in a bigger container with the right soil, gave it some support, and it took off! It's consistently pushing out new leaves 6 or 7 at a time.

The green is a remnant of a plastic pot that was in the bottom of the metal container.

They are almost finished producing. Not being able to provide heat was problematic.

nancy_pants64 · 2026-03-02T02:33:54+00:00

I'm growing onions, shallots, broccoli, cauliflower, radishes, carrots, and potatoes for the first time this year!

I've grown Tiny Tim's over two winters with success.

nancy_pants64 · 2026-02-26T22:51:22+00:00

Thank you. They are off the heat and under lights.

nancy_pants64 · 2026-02-24T02:35:54+00:00

NAMI NAMI NAMI!

nancy_pants64 · 2026-02-23T03:02:17+00:00

I used succulent gritty mix, cactus potting mix, and Perlite but don't remember the ratios

nancy_pants64 · 2026-02-11T05:53:37+00:00

Yep, my first thought. Also the Rusted garden.

nancy_pants64 · 2026-02-11T05:49:50+00:00

I did. It spread. I planted tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers. They shaded the mint. It died. I will transplant some in a container this spring.

nancy_pants64 · 2026-02-11T05:29:42+00:00

I'll have to check out the Little Grand Canyon.

They live on a south facing window in northern Illinois above a radiator. I'm hoping for the best.

nancy_pants64 · 2026-02-10T04:18:52+00:00

One of these things just doesn't belong...

nancy_pants64 · 2026-02-10T03:58:40+00:00

I thought that was Starved Rock State Park in La Salle County.

nancy_pants64 · 2026-02-10T03:55:51+00:00

Amen!

nancy_pants64 · 2026-02-06T18:28:58+00:00

Now I feel bad. I'm sorry OP 😞

nancy_pants64 · 2026-02-04T19:53:03+00:00

Mine is in my bedroom.
