picture window plants
i have plants growing in natural light in the living room window for a few reasons...not least of which is the fact that there is no room available under the grow lights and i patently refuse to set up a fifth fixture this late...natural light will also make it easier to harden these plants off before they go out into one garden or another...the top photo is one of three northern tepehuam teosinte plants derived from seeds i got from the plants i finished in the basement...the second photo is of texas wild cherry tomato plants...if i succeed in getting these going there will never be a need to reseed...they will do the work in the future...the third photo is of one of three purslane plants that have sprouted...madness given their fecundity in the wild...sort of like pampering jerusalem artichokes...but i had to try...and the bottom photo is of one of seven wild potato seedling germinated as a backup in case the basement plants don't set tubers...there are plants all over the house waiting for the weather to break...more as it comes up.
