Few quick answers (since Tumblr being a lil funk I'm just gonna continue doing answer/shoutout-ish posts as I can :) )
@jishinsjourney
the cornstarch slurry I'm testing out for a few different reasons the first 2 is the main reasons.
Some seeds are too small to easily space (like carrots and lettuce) so the slurry aids with spacing better and making rows or designs in your planting spaces.
The slurry is also supposed to help with moisture holding as well for the first couple of days of in ground until germination (sprouting).
Partly as well because ants keep stealing my seeds, so I'm hoping this will repell huge bald spots a bit haha
@empress-gabby Thank you! :) it's still a work in progress as of yet, but every bit of produce we've gotten has been very worth the energy and the work. 🌱🌻
LOOKING FOR THE PERFECT LIGHTWEIGHT + BRIGHTENING SUMMER SUNSCREEN?👆🏼 _______________________________________________ I love the Solara Suncare brand — and the incredibly functional, elegant sunscreens that the brand’s founder, Stephanie DiPisa, has created. So it was no surprise to me that the new Solara Suncare Go! Vacation Glow Illuminating Mineral Sunscreen would be just as exceptional. . As the name indicates, Vacation Glow is great for tossing in your weekend getaway bag. And I did exactly that on a trip upstate two weeks ago. To start, Vacation Glow has a lightweight creamy texture that lights up your skin as you apply it. Psst…if you’re looking for a mineral sunscreen with a tint, a subtle blurring effect and a shimmer, this is it! . As with all of the @solarasuncare facial sunscreens, the new Vacation Glow is much, much more than a mere SPF cream. It’s packed with multiple pro-skin health ingredients at relatively active levels. The top 10 of the INCI is front-loaded with water-binding humectants and two solid antioxidant botanicals, including Açai Fruit Extract, and tried-and-true Green Tea Leaf Extract — one of the best antioxidant ingredients in skincare. . It’s a bit thicker than the @wander_beauty Pack Up & Glow Priming Mineral Sunscreen I reviewed on the blog. I’d almost go so far as to say Vacation Glow has the qualities of a BB Cream. Hmm…is it a BB Cream?! You tell me! . Curious? Discover my picks of tinted sunscreens for summer on the Skincarma Blog at skincarma.com.

There's always a fight between my head, which wants to portray reality in a meaningful way, and my hand, which wants to scribble out of control.

Tiny post of excitement! (As well as a mini update!)
Corn sprout spotted!!!
Im Even more excited because the expected germination date passed almost a week ago! Went out to reseed with the rest of the bag and peeled back the row cover to spot a few of these lil ones poking up :) so no reseeding of them at this time.
The plan for the corn row is to do a 3 sisters method row this year.
When the corn is about 3 inches tall, I'm gonna pop a few beans and pea seeds around each stalk (half and half row cover, we really like snap/sugar peas), once they've grown an amount I'm gonna plant some I think zucchini squash for ground cover.
There's also another lil grow experiment I'm giving a go~
I had some onions I purchased go to sprout. While I'm on a little regrow kick I decided, why not? At worst it doesn't work and at best I've got a new bulb/had flowers, or just learned it doesn't work 🤷♀️
In 5ish months (or if the onions just don't do well, in which theyll be pulled) hopefully we may see flowers!
4 lil sprouted onion, peeled back to center and planted. (3-18-2023) I'm pretty sure I may have spaced them a bit much, but once they seem to root I'm going to sprinkle kale and chard seed around them.
onions companion planted with kale and chard are said to help repel pests like flea beetles, cabbage loopers, and aphids that like both.
That's it for now :) I hope everyone is having an ama,ing week so far!
The first time I moved into my current residence, my heart fell. I opened the back window and looked at the banana plantation and it finally hit me. This is what I had chosen. A quiet village life. I imagined myself fetching water from the well. Taking a bath in the plantation when it was dark, finding my way around the quiet. I looked up to see a print of leak on my ply wood ceiling, and thought…
