I got Zuked! 🙃 . Hadn’t checked the garden for a few days, & while passing by the zucchini bush I felt a chill & the presence of a large, dark creature lurking in the shadows. . Parted the leaves to discover this Green Beast ready to zuke me back to the stone age. It already had sucked the lifeforce from the little zucchini behind it. . Fortunately I was able to “gift” it to a friend who will now be enjoying zucchini until late November 🤔👍 . #GotZuked #Zuked #GadZukes #ZukularFallout #ZukeEmAll #Zucchini #ズッキーニ #Courgette #Zucchinigeddon #ZucchinisOfInstagram #ZucchiniRhymesWithWeenie #RaisedBedGardening #RaisedGardenBeds #BecauseFUGophers #NorCal #Zone9bGardening #Zone9b #Permaculture #ShareTheBounty https://www.instagram.com/p/ChiUd3LvaaJ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The temperatures have been consistently above 105 lately. Believe me everything has really been struggling. Our monsoon has come early this year and I am really glad for that, adding a little moisture in the air.

Peruvian Apple Cactus seedlings sprouted up in just over a week! Wow! 🌵🌵🌵🌵 Okay so, "someone I might know" took a small over-ripe fruit (it was already popped open for days) off a neighbor's streetside cactus before the animals got to it. The fruit was way too old to eat, but the seeds were still worth taking a chance on, and omG THEY POPPED UP SO FAST I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH EM!! 🌵 Apparently, the longer I can keep them covered with humidity and warmth, the better they'll grow. But I'm so excited, I didn't expect this to go anywhere because the fruit was so old, and I've never grown cactus from seed. 🍑 Speaking of, just to rant a bit, I HATE that my neighbors let the fruit in their yard go bad and fall off and rot. ESPECIALLY since this summer, our apricot tree got raided and cleaned off for the first time, and I'm still so fucking mad about it. (I'm certain it's our most recent neighbors that did it since their yard faces ours.) I only got one apricot off the tree because it was ripe but too hard and needed another week to grow, but someone cleaned off the entire tree and ground of every single apricot before I had a chance to harvest. (We don't have a door cam, unfortunately.) Drives me fucking mad. If you're gonna take fruit off someone's tree, especially when it's not even streetside, it's well into our property, only take what you can eat right there. You don't fucking take everything. 😠 Anyway. This neighbor has some really amazing different cactuses on the streetside. They're humongous and grow these 2 story high flower spikes and have tons of fruit. (Again, why don't these people eat the fruit???? I pay good money for cactus fruit in the store!!) So, hopefully these seedlings will grow into big cacti and make some Peruvian Apples for me. I'll definitely plant them outside when they're bigger, so they'll still be a part of the community/help with pollination. 🌼 I s2g I'm gonna take a walk with some bags and tongs and go knock doors and see which neighbors will let me just take it all. I'd be swimming in fruit. (Maybe not swimming with the prickly pears tho.) 🌵 #cactus #cacti #sprouts #seedlings #gardening #zone9b #zone9 #zone9garden https://www.instagram.com/p/ClK2TSvLcuX/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Cleaned up the side grass that was hanging down into the pond! There were a ton of bricks and stones buried around the edge of the pond, which would find better use elsewhere in the yard, since this area is too overgrown to walk around. (I bet the bricks have been buried since I was a kid, this area has always been so overgrown by grass - there used to be a fence where those bushes are.) Nothing particularly important came from doing this, but I just really wanted to clean up all the dead grass. Got a bunch of worms and fresh wormy dirt out of this half of the pond, too. And I also saw a wild cockroach egg case and a wild cockroach... 😬 I haven't seen one since the exact day I left NYC last and saw a huge one barfing black ooze upside down on my rug... 🤢 Stay outside, buddy. (They're very uncommon to find in a house in this area, and obviously hard to find in the wild because they hide under dead leaves.) #garden #gardening #plants #california #zone9b #zone9 #zone9garden #pandemicgardening #spring #springcleaning https://www.instagram.com/p/CM8jzEjsMrO/?igshid=4txxgmbcbwyc
