Gardening pics, hacks, successes, and or failures

I posted our perennial cauliflower idea on the dinner thread but I thought I would put it here as well. We leave our cauliflower plants in place after harvesting the heads and they keep producing in April year after year. During the summer they get lots of aphids but the plants seem just as vigorous come spring. Here’s a pic of today’s harvest. (Lots more to come).View attachment 116392

Tried this from our spring cauliflower and works great. Been harvesting a bit the last three weeks and found this one yesterday.
Thanks for the idea.

nice did you add sugar too it? read it will take about 3-6 months so thinking about getting it going now for the summer

Oh yeah. Molasses. YouTube stuff. We usually just use compost for the beds in fall, but pots need something more.

I squeezed two rows of tomatoes on strings in our two 3 x 8 beds. Then the celery went down the middle. It takes a long time to grow and isn't as white as it could be with a bunch of fiddling with cardboard wraps. Tastes good. Still more to come out. It can take some frost.
