Selby had a dream last week that we had huge pots of kale in our apartment. "It was the first time I ever dreamed about vegetables!" he said. I think this is a good sign.
This weekend I went to Santa Barbara, so Selby watered the garden for me. Thanks Selby! Things seem better with the new wind barriers. The woodwind section is doing well, and actually starting to look healthy. Lettuce is looking a bit better too, but still not great. The epazote is OK, but I can't really tell how it's doing since I'm not sure what it's supposed to look like. The oregano seems to be dying maybe.
The tomatoes are okay, but I think they are struggling a bit too. Mario, sadly, is dead, and today I pulled him out of the drawer and thew him away - without leaves, I don't think there was much hope.
After returning my rental car today, I quickly stopped by the garden store to buy a new pepper plant. I brought this pepper plant home and named it Luigi. I dug up the epazote and moved it to the opposite end of the drawer where Mario had been, then planted Luigi where the epazote had been. It takes about 70 days to get peppers, so hopefully I'll have some peppers to eat by July!
The kale that I planted indoors is doing well, but the chive seeds I planted haven't come up yet. Hmm. That's about all for now.
