i also planted hops, which just pop’ed thru the soil, no pictures yet.
ALSO! i ordered organic real hops, which we know the information on, to brew beer!, im so excited. going to plant 3 of them at the hepler hotel and going to plant one of them on the patio also.

what else, ohh, planted 3 jerusalem artichokes both on the patio and at bills. they get 3m tall! and are delicious! i cant wait.

did a bunch of gardening at bills today, sunday, in the rain all day. i did not take any pictures due to the rain, but i got a lot done, ill get a post up about it when i get some pictures of what we have done there.

then, we also gardened at shea and lauren’s plot on saturday, which was super fun. the post about it is here. it shows what we did! were planning on putting another planter box in, where i may be able to sow some more veggies too.

anyways, was a great weekend, did not do much on the patio garden, but got lots of gardening in anyways!

lauren and shea’s garden plot!

I got to come along to lauren and shea’s garden plot this weekend! wow, dl they ever have a prime location. did some work arranging some new flower beds, doing some cleanup, and scheming on where we can expand their plot. while we did this, i took a time lapse of what we did! pretty fun!

here are the pictures and the video.

had lots of fun, and look forward to getting to help out more!

thanks lauren and shea!

two new timelapses, brewing and seeding

I have 2 new time lapse videos that I have made

the first one is of dan and I brewing this weekend. the camera battery died about halfway thru, so this is not the full event, but its still fun to watch.

Tip: if you click on the video 2x i think, you get thru to youtube and you can watch them at a larger size.

and sorry, there is no music. this is me just testing and figuring out how this works with the least amount of work possible
