Initiation into The Garden

It is All Growing!

Neighbors

I went away Friday night to Saturday evening, leaving the sprouts and baby-plants to fend for themselves in the Sun without ample water.

My neighbor told me he watered my garden for me. How awesome is that?

He is growing food now too;

• carrots
• tomatoes
• chilis
• sweet potatoes from the Philippines

Bokashi is supposed to arrive today... get the organismic composting on...

Hooray for vegetables.

Also, for you vegetarians - Please look into buying these posters for your education, reference and well-being, and artistic addition to your pantry/kitchen:

Updated.

Some things have been progressing since last poast:

1. more plants planted
2. Landlord's overwhelming approval
3. decision to use more land and extend the garden due to lack of earth-space
4. purchased bokashi (10 lbs.) to begin composting
5. purchased another 5-gallon bucket due to growing quantity of waste that we am accumulating and in preparation for bokashi
6. purchased a softer spray nozzle for watering the garden

I also have conceived of the idea of developing a small-scale bokashi business for Silverlake/Los Feliz/Echo Park area... do you or anyone you know have any interest???

• I could collect people's waste
• sell compost
• sell bokashi

Please share this with potentially interested parties and send them my way. Thank you.

The Sun shines and shines and it just no never stops... beauty burns.

Full blessings,

It's Bokashi Time!

Bokashi;
Mr. Al Pasternak is a friend researching and working with Bokashi. He responded to a message I sent to him in thanks and praise for his sharing his passion and for distributing this amazingly simple, elegant, and mightily beneficial composting method.

I will be either buying his Bokashi or making my own with his guidance. For now, please enjoy his blog on the subject.

Bokashi in your house... recycle your waste; feed your surroundings with the abundant nutrients of your waste...

on a related note... discover Liquid Gold.

Love growing,

How To Make Bokashi (for composting)

So I am going to be using this style of compost in our garden, eliminating and recycling all of our food waste....
and to have a continuous supply of fertilizer.
Wahhooooo!!

More Fun Than Pain - More Beauty Than Dirty

Today we purchased some more soil/fertilizer/compost and a garden trowel. We spent another $25, making the total estimated cost around $130.

We also potted some herbs...

It's all about to get freakin' wild ova here!

Jus' you wait.

Love.
