🥔 2 Month Potato Grow Bag Update 🥔

🥔 2 Month Potato Grow Bag Update 🥔 Before adding mulch, I measured my potato plants to make sure they were tall enough. I waited until they were about 6–8 inches tall, which is the recommended height before mulching or hilling potatoes. Once they hit that milestone, I added a layer of mulch t

I turned a kiddie pool into a corn patch 🌽 

I turned a kiddie pool into a corn patch 🌽 First, I drilled drainage holes throughout the bottom so excess water could escape. Then I filled it up, planted my corn in blocks for better pollination, and now we're seeing what happens. And yes, before anyone asks—I know kiddie pools aren'

90 day chaos garden update

90 days ago, this was just a packet of wildflower seeds and a little bit of hope. 🌱 Is it perfect? Nope. There are definitely weeds mixed in. But every day, a new flower blooms, a pollinator stops by, and the garden becomes a little more beautiful. That’s the thing about a chaos garden—you

Peas are my new favorite thing to grow🫛

I think peas might be my new favorite thing to grow. 🌱 They’re easy, productive, and double as a garden snack. Once I gave them a trellis, cooler weather, and consistent water, they basically did the rest. As a first-time pea grower, I can officially say I’ll be planting these again next year

Why I let my cilantro go to flower💚

Most people pull cilantro once it flowers… but I let mine bolt on purpose 🌿 The flowers attract pollinators and beneficial insects that help with pest control naturally. And once they dry, you get coriander seeds to save or replant. Even bolted cilantro still gives back to the garden. #garden

There is healing and gardening

There’s therapy in the rhythm of watering, weeding, and waiting 🌿 Somehow the garden always slows my mind down and reminds me that growth takes time. ✨ #garden #gardening #gardenaesthetic #selfcare #cottagecore

You’re watering wrong, and so was I🩵

I kept watering my plants from the top down and started noticing brown spots, damaged leaves, and stressed plants. Turns out a lot of vegetables prefer water at the roots — not sitting on their leaves. What I’m learning: • Water the soil, not the plant • Wet leaves can lead to fungal issues •

Why are there mushrooms growing in my garden?

I found mushrooms growing in my garden and immediately thought something was wrong 🍄😅 Turns out… mushrooms are usually a sign of healthy soil biology. They show up when organic matter like wood chips, mulch, cardboard, and sticks start breaking down and feeding the soil. Basically: living soi

New elevated raise bed💚

My husband surprised me by putting together this elevated raised bed from @landguard_gardening 🌱 I filled it using cardboard, sticks, and pinecones first to save on soil before planting everything out. I’m honestly obsessed with how clean the galvanized steel looks next to my greenhouse 😍 And

🫛Pea growing do’s & don’ts: 

✅ DO: • Give them something to climb • Keep soil consistently moist • Harvest often ❌ DON’T: • Plant too late in the heat • Let them dry out • Wait too long to pick Peas are way easier than I expected 💚 #gardening #garden #growyourownfood #raisedbedgarden #gardeningforbeginners

Start the garden 🪏

Gardening doesn’t have to start with a perfect backyard, expensive raised beds, or knowing exactly what you’re doing. Start with one tomato plant. One herb pot. One grow bag. You learn as you grow 🪏 #garden #gardenaesthetic #gardentok #raisedbedgarden #gardening Salt Lake City

One month potato grow bag update🥔

30 day potato grow bag update 🥔🌱 The biggest thing I’ve learned so far? Don’t rush to hill them up too early. Most of mine are only around 3–4 inches tall, so I’m waiting a little longer before adding more soil or straw around the stems. I’m growing these in fabric grow bags to save space

No space… No problem🍅

You don’t need raised beds or a huge backyard to start gardening 🌱 Grow bags are affordable, beginner-friendly, and perfect for patios, small yards, or renters. I fill the bottom with sticks and wood chips first to save on soil, then top with soil, plants, and straw mulch to help hold moistur

Chaos Garden update

I planted this bed with zero plan… just scattered seeds and hoped for the best. No perfect rows No spacing rules No overthinking And somehow… it worked 🌱 This is your reminder that you don’t need to do everything “right” to grow something beautiful. Sometimes the best gardens are the

Mulching the right way

I learned this the hard way… 🌱 Last year I thought I was mulching my beds with straw… and accidentally planted a full garden of weeds 🙃 Not all mulch is created equal. If you’re using straw, make sure it says: ✔️ Certified noxious weed free Because if it doesn’t… you’re basically spre

Squirrels in the garden🐿️

Squirrels are out here acting like I planted this garden for THEM 🫠 If your containers or beds look like this… it’s not you. It’s squirrels. Here’s what actually helps: • They dig in loose soil → firm it down after planting • They hate strong smells → try cayenne, garlic spray, or pepperm

You are planting basil wrong🌱

Most store-bought basil is actually multiple plants crammed into one pot—which means they’ll compete for nutrients and stay small. Here’s what I did instead: • Gently removed the plant from the pot • Separated each individual plant (yes, it feels wrong 😂) • Gave each one its own space to grow

Rain does more than just water your garden☔️

Rain does more than just water your garden 🌧️ • Helps nutrients move through the soil • Encourages deeper root growth • Gives plants a break from heat stress Sometimes the best thing you can do… is nothing at all. #gardenaesthetic #garden #gardening #growyourownfood #slowliving

Kale forest loading🥬

One month ago this space was completely empty… and now it’s full of kale 🥬 This is your reminder that gardening doesn’t happen overnight—but it does happen. Kale is one of the easiest crops to grow, especially in early spring. It handles cold, grows fast, and keeps producing the more you harv

Grow Strawberries in Pots🍓

First strawberry of the season… and it came from a container 🍓 If you think you need a big garden to grow food— you don’t. Strawberries are one of the easiest things to grow in pots. Here’s what actually matters: • Full sun (at least 6+ hours) • A pot with drainage • Consistent watering (
