Garden Update

Hey everyone! So last night I got a Hive Garden Badge, thanks to @riverflows. It got me thinking of doing an update. After all it has been 9 days since the last one. Things are growing, so I guess I am doing something right. Let's take a look at the changes since last week.

As you can see in the thumbnail photo, the corn is now as tall as I am! The melons are still creeping, and producing more fruit. One things that I have learned about them, is they need lots of water. So something to keep in mind.


Question for all you pros. Should I worry about Ants eating the melons? I’ve seen some around the garden.


Happy to see some Jalapeno's. Even though I am not to happy with the way they turned out. Next time I will do better. I think I should go ahead and get some seeds, or seedlings, and do some more. This time I may just do in a container.

Still no Ear's of the Glass Corn. I do think they look cool though. The other night I was dreaming, and in the dream I got up to check on my tent, and my cannabis turned into corn! It felt so real, and I was even thinking that it was very plausible, and was trying to pull the leaves off to get my cannabis back lol


Both tomatoes are fruiting. Still have yet to put stakes up, but they are holding up well. I still have time to put a few up.

I am very pleased with the Sunflower, and Glass Corn side project. The corn is a bit small compared to the front garden, but I did get these in the ground later. Then there is not as much sun. I am sure they’ll come around soon.

I’ve been feeding with Fish Fertilizer, and will continue to use once a week, along with a Bloom top dressing that I use on my indoor cannabis garden. My only issue is keeping up watering the melons. It has been warmer then usual, but I’m sure it will cool off by next week. Hopefully we get some rain soon. We really need it! The other night there was heat lightning up in the mountains. Thank goodness no fire started. I am sure we will have one. It is not a question of if, it is a question of when?

Your garden looks fantastic bro,
Those sunflowers are certainly magnificent! And I think it's even more cool that our sunflowers bloomed at the same time :)

That dream about the cannabis turning into corn had me laughing because I have strange dreams like that as well, and the fact that you were trying to rescue the cannabis by pulling the leaves off makes it even funnier 😂

Pepper plants seem to be very touchy to me. It's difficult to know what they want sometimes. I would be pleased with those results but also feeling like better results are possible, either way all your plants are healthy and happy.

Not sure about those ants, I would be concerned too though because those melons are looking great.

Keep up the great work, congrats on your badge achievement!

Thanks man! And yeah it is always fun growing the same thing with someone here on the chain. I’m hoping I can make sunflower seeds with then, since it is what I used to replace the cigarettes lol

Ahhha you know you are a mad gardener when you dream about it!

I hear it's been dry over there. Reckon it might be third cycle of El Nina maybe... Good for us as we get more rain, but not good for you guys.

Keep an eye on the melon ant situation... Some people put stockings around them!

I find jalapenos like water and fertiliser... I made some wicking buckets or self watering buckets this year and have had sooo many healthy ones it's incredible. Might be a great idea for the work garden and definitely water saving!

Could I get a photo without the writing for the Hive Gardeners grand selfie wall? Love it.. if a bit 🌽🌽🌽 corny 😂😂

Hey Jon. I'm building an upcoming 3D P2E browser game to (not only) explain our blockchain to new people. I got an recomendation by @ganjafarmer to talk with you about possible win-win-cooperations. So I tried your Discord in your hive header, but the link doesn't seems valid. Do you have another link? If you want to have a first glance to the game, just visit @CryptoCompany.
