Carolina jasmine
This is my 2nd plant to flower. And unlike the paperwhite narcissus – I really like this smell. I have this plant blockaded so that the cat cannot eat it – its poisonous. The flower snuck up on me, or I’d have done a time-lapse video of it opening. I expect it to flower further, [...]

Narcissus Paperwhite Timelapse
This is my first flower since I started my indoor growing hobby a few months ago. Apparently paperwhites only take 2-3 weeks to bloom. Mine took a couple months. And I’ve read that giving the bulbs a bit of alcohol will help prevent the plants from getting too tall and falling over. This video is [...]

I should probably filter some of the water out of that one. I’ve seen a few seeds drop to the bottom [...]

Aeroponics
Aeroponics is a system developed by Nasa to be used in space, as there is no soil involved at all. This is a small system, but from reviews its relatively noisy. http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=9863440&sourceid=1500000000000003260370&ci_src=14110944&ci_sku=9863440 And there’s things like this: http://aeroponicsnmore.com/aeroponics-systems-c-3/rainforest-36-six-3-in-site-aeroponics-system-p-141 Apparently soil is becoming a thing of the past.

Bonsai
I am going to attempt to grow a few bonsai trees. At least until I decide its too much trouble or too difficult. I ordered a few seeds recently, including: – Chinese Juniper The Chinese Juniper is a classic Bonsai. The Wisteria below would be fun, as they apparently are fragrant as well. Watch the [...]
