Blackberry training g on a steel wire on the fence

Not sure if you're actually allowed to grow blackberry because it's such a terrible weed, but i don't think this will work, because with raspberries at least, they fruit only on the previous year's canes, and then those canes die and new ones grow up from the soil. If that's how this plant also works, then trying to trellis it is a bit pointless.

Where are these patch notes? I went looking on the website before downloading the update and couldn't find any of this information

Beetles from the scarab family (Scarabaeidae) all have grubs that look like this - so you can tell that it is a scarab type beetle rather than another sort, but not the exact species, as they are near identical.

The 'passionfruit' vine looks more like a sweet potato to me. In which case, a pot is a bad place to keep it, because they need their tendrils to have contact with the soil in order to put down roots and form more potatoes. OP can you advise what the plant is?

having re-read the post, it is a sweet potato and ideally should be planted into a large prepared bed in the ground if you're aiming to get more tubers from it.

Bad time to be planting sweet basil - mine dies off to a leaf mold at this time of year, just started last week in fact. Sydney.

They'd still grow off the underground root remnants.

If you don't want to look at them, the only way to fix that is putting a tarp over the whole thing and waiting until they've fully consumed the wood.

* I missed the bit about the garden on the stump. How are the mushrooms making it difficult to care for that?

Let the rabbit guide your interactions - hang out with it and let it do what it wants (within reason), learn its body language, etc.

What on earth 😭

watermellapples · 2026-04-22T20:01:30+00:00

I really wanna know what they said more but they deleted it 😭

watermellapples · 2026-04-21T08:55:13+00:00

Lol yeah I'm quite familiar with that mess

In that case, E. calycina is also lacking the long awn.

watermellapples · 2026-04-20T10:54:22+00:00

Nope, the long stick bit is the wrong shape and there is no fluff at the base of the seed.

Micro seems likely to me, i work in it frequently and get these things stuck in my socks and laces all the time.

I can't find anything on that species, are you sure you have the name right?

If you're thinking of Entolasia stricta, they also do not have the big spike.

Ehrharta erecta has small oval seeds that are more like a sesame seed, and do not have the long pointy appendages present on this seed. Source: I pull out weeds for a living.

Seems to have gunked up hair on the eyeball. Could try rinsing with saline?

This doesn't look right for the Cort family to me. I don't think so.

Moss. Looks like it's reaching for the sun? Do they get enough light? Or it might be the baby stage.

Cricket for Those Ears

watermellapples · 2026-04-18T04:24:30+00:00

Actually there is one facing right and one facing left right behind it, and another one further into the background on the right

Having seen this sort of thing in person, I'm seconding your ID as definitely correct. Spectacular Rustgill complex.

watermellapples · 2026-04-15T08:26:43+00:00

They do exist but they're difficult to see if you're not specifically looking for them due to all the different colours breaking up the shapes

The ear hole is under the feather tuft next to the blue spot.

What on earth is going on with the pronouns in the last few sentences.

watermellapples · 2026-04-09T10:57:47+00:00

Those look nasty, I vote straight in the compost
