One Alaskans greenhouse

[Alasgun]

My little “seed starting and production laboratory” will be kicking off real soon now!

Updated my seed start time sheet and got one taped up for referance.

Then on the top shelf; sitting on the heat mat is the start of a Lacto bacillus serum culture which when done will see several uses. Every year about now i grow a batch and dump it down the septic. This will end up at 1 1/2 gallons and i’ll pull off a qt. For foliar feeding before dumping the rest down a toilet! Been here over 30 years and never done anything to the septic system!

Then on the bottom shelf is the beginning of a little Lettuce patch.
In another week that shelf will be 2/3 full of 10/20 trays.

Here we go!

The “ExHale” co2 bag showed up today and i hung it and it’s monitor in the cuke hootch. After activation it should take a week or so to reach it’s maximum output and continue there for 6 months.
The goal is 1300ppm. Time will tell?

About the time i start feeling like a real “space cowboy” i read in their bio where these bag’s were part of a space mission once!

Anyway, now that i know there are 19,500 types of Butterflies in the world; im determined to chase as many of them as i can in the time the good Lord has given me.

This ole girl and her twin calves from last year have been hanging out on the property for the last week or so. Today i watched her heading around the back of the house so i went to a back bedroom and “intercepted her” just as sh was looking in my bedroom window. 10 pictures later i pecked on the window and she left so i sorted them and saved this one. If the window was open i could have petted her nose.

Just a little Alaskana for your evening.
