Seed Swapping

Aug 15

Posted by noobcake-admin in cool stuff, food, gardening | No Comments

So I’ve joined a few forums that concern growing your own food and I’ve been swapping stuff around with fellow hobbyists for the past 6 weeks now. I’ve been getting a massive amount of free seeds and free plants from people who I barely know. Which is absolutely the best thing ever! =D

I’ve joined www.tomatoville.com, www.thehotpepper.com, www.thechilliforum.com, and www.pinoyexchange.com…. and so far my favorite place to get free stuff is from the folks at tomatoville. I mean they just give stuff away for no reason! It’s awesome. People at THP, TCF and PEX have also been quite generous to me. And I have been generous to quite a few people there also.

Pulled Out my First Plants

Aug 15

Posted by noobcake-admin in food, gardening | 1 Comment

Pulled out my first plants.

The crappiest ones of all…..my bolted lettuce. lol. Ain’t planting these no more. Changed my mind on letting them go to seed. I’ll just plant more arugula.

Put them into my potting mix for my new plants including the old soil. I just cut them up into little pieces and mixed them in with the old soil including some new compost and other good stuff that I always put in. Not worried about diseases or anything since I only got nightshades to plant and herbs and arugula. Crop rotation’s gonna be a bitch when I start recycling my soil for nightshades that’s for sure.

On to the Updates!

My Organic Basil Pesto Recipe

Aug 3

Posted by noobcake-admin in food, gardening | 2 Comments

So the other day I decided to harvest a bunch of basil from my basil patch. My homegrown, organic, basil has just grown insane the past few days so I decided to top them all off and make pesto out of it.
