any recommendations for indoor plants? we wanna start having plants around the house

Shit dude, that is quite the listening room.

Can you make the windows behind the speakers openable? For infinite soundstage depth?

I haven’t got loads, and only have easy growing things really. Choose depending on your light levels. We’ve got a fairy dark house and I find the following are pretty hard to kill! Also I use the app Planta to help with correct watering.

• spider plant
  
• peace lily
  
• Chinese money plant
  
• Jade/trailing jade
  
• Snake plant (mother-in-law’s tongue)
  
• Aloe Vera
  
• Pothos of some sort
  
  

I’m hoping to get a fern type plant soon, a bit more fussy as far as I’ve understood. PictureThis is also useful for plant ID and care.

There is a house plants thread, including swaps and sales.

My wisteria is currently loving life.
It's shot out these from the base. Could these be cut and made into baby wisteria with some (rooting compound?). I know nothing...

Wisteria hysteria?

I've got that feelin', better start believin'

New patch, French beans at the far end. Carrots in 4 rows at the near end and broccoli in the middle. This is a free year effectively and since the broccoli seeds are well out of date everything is a bonus.

Cabbage White eggs on my Brocolli. I'm going to have to terminate with prejudice, aren't I?

Yep. Mash 'em up.

Chickens didn't happen, we are getting a bee hive on Saturday tho'! Full of bees too!! 🐝😍

Won't little ones like that be difficult to milk?

you call that a bee

Native stingless bees, they're so cute, they're absolutely tiny... They'll be going right under our macadamia trees so we should get just over a kilo of macadamia blossom honey this time next year... It's all very exciting! 🤗

That’s awesome!

Update on the wild flower strip.

Grass is now creeping back in and the adjacent grass is shading it - which I can't cut because I don't want to risk damage the flowers.

For next year I think I'm going to cover with a couple of layers of cardboard, then composite, then those seed mats with some compost on top.

Hopefully the flower roots will be able to sufficiently work their way into and through the cardboard as they grow to get water from the ground.

You could cut the adjacent grass by hand? I have a wildflower patch in the corner of my lawn and I’ve had to get down with some scissors to keep the grass next to it under control. Shouldn’t take long for the flowers to get tall enough that it’s not so much of an issue.

Bees are in! Not sure we've got the right spot for them yet, might need somewhere a bit sunnier to get them warmed up... I love them!!

Looks the bees knees ...

House hunting blue tits are in for a shock next spring.

Looks like I'm going to lose my crop of clothes line to cabbage whites.
