Summer Update

Solara loves to bounce now - 4 months old!

The indoor garden is much more lucrative than the outdoor.


The lemons are just starting to turn!  (Pretty stoked about this.)


The greenhouse has turned into a huge project.  I am scrambling to get the thing enclosed by sub-freezing temps.


The main holdup is acquiring bottles.  I'll go through close to 3,000 by the end.

This year, I will only be overwintering a navel orange and a mandarin - my 2 cold-hardiest.  If they survive I'll plant lemon and lime cultivars as well.  Since there will be no additional heat source, I have no idea how this will work.
My favorite flower so far.
