Update on my garden situation: we didn't end up transferring them in time and they pretty much died off and because we are so far into summer we just decided to buy plants that are already grown and transfer to our garden space. Next year we will starting from seedlings again.

You're gnat laughing any more!

I saw one get stuck then it ran and managed to escape. I thought wow this guy is the Schwarzenegger of fungus gnats.

Okay, so this might sound gross.

Something I do these days is when I need to pee, I walk outside. I have a watering can with a spout that I pee into. Then I add about 9/10s of water to my pee and water whichever plant I think could use a little phosphorus and other nutrients.

For years, I peed in a can until it was full (took about a day) and then watered, but that inevitably led to a can of piss standing somewhere. One might forget the watering part and piss gets rancid quick. Doing this little ritual for every piss break takes care of that potential nuisance.

I do that sometimes, when my outdoor plants are scheduled to be fertilized. Once in a while I'll pour it undiluted onto my compost pile.

I love my garden most years but this year I've been so lazy with it. I got a beautiful new Hosta plant and some wild flowers planted but that's about all I have bothered with.

Can we post about house plants in here too? That's been my main focus this year and it's my first year having any so I think that is why I have neglected the garden a bit.

I have quite a few, I went from none to having 8 in the space of 2 months. They make me so happy 😂.

I have the cutest baby Boston Fern, 2 Cacti, a Kentia Palm, Prayer Plant, a Chinese Money Plant, Birds Nest Fern and a Money Tree. All pet friendly 😌.

I'll need to get some pics! Although one of my cats thinks they are salads so some look a bit scabby 🤦🏼�♀️

What do you have growing Degrassi?

What do you have growing Degrassi?

Grass 😂👍

Sorry.

I dunno what it is about house plants, they're just nice and make the windowsills look nice imo. I've put my bonnets outside now because the gnats were annoying me too much.

I'd like a nice flower or something to grow indoors. Or cacti but one that looks like ones from the desert.

A miniature one of this would be  :

Ants in my plants. Needed an old pot and saw this.

@Jwb I think you are an ant fan.

@Guybrush maybe you too.

Oh, very nice! And lots of ant larvae too.

Have you tried eating them alive?

No 😲

Would you?

[Guybrush]

No 😲

Would you?

Of course! The last time I tried was a few years ago. A little sour, not unpleasant, but it was one ant and honestly should probably eat a few more in a bite to get a proper assessment.

My boy wolfs them down in kindergarten.

Just normal garden ants? Not sure about this mate. I know they're high in protein, think I'll stick to tins of tuna 😲
