a berry moving day

the berries and the company they brought in with them from outside in december seemed to be cohabiting with the spuds without any tennant stress going on...
however, since the berries are thriving they are putting out stolons in an effort to establish a colony in favorable conditions...they ( there are four original plants that came in...all related ) want daughters and will not be put off forever...
so i cleared off the cart wich has its own light attached ( after some plant room rearranging ) and put the berries and comapny in the cneter of their own world...
then i filled a peat pot with compost and worm castings which i doused with some worm "tea" from the worm bin...
after which i took the longest of the escaping stolons...and the only one actually long enought work with...and pinned it in the peat pot...the cental location of the original plants wil allow placement of pinned stolons all around them and, soon enough, there will be a colony...
the original tennants have some berries just starting out...
one cooking...
and a couple that are done...given conditions it is reasonable to expect more.
