Wheee! Legal Planting! / myLot

I just got an email from my friend, Mark. I spent Easter with his family and brought him some green bean seeds. I am glad to see them poking through. He and his wife have a nice back yard, and grow everything from succulents to smokables to pretty flowers to corn. I'll put some corn and sunflower seeds in my pocket for next time I visit them. Things are poking through on my balcony as well. I'll take a picture soon.

I love the joy of seeing seeds sprout. It is so fulfilling I hope your beans thrive. My mangetout beans are going bald from snails shaving it. Last year they ended up eating all the leaves before it produced any fruit.

@TheHorse I used to be happy to share my plants with them but last year they were too greedy. This time I actually binned them out of frustration they never stop coming.

I toss snails over the fence when I find them "attacking" my gardens.

I'm glad you didn't get arrested for planting anything this time.

One has to engage in legal activities sometimes.

@TheHorse True but that doesn't mean you'll actually do it, though.

Those are at my friend's house. I am sure he will water them. My balcony garden (and my various illegal plantings) have received a lot of rain.recently.

@TheHorse - Rain is so much better than tap water.
