Companion planting French Breakfast Radishes with my Sugar Snap Peas on the balcony
(sh.itjust.works)
I repotted my sugar snap peas into a larger upcycled kitty litter container that I found in a dumpster. There was plenty of space, so I added radishes that only take 23 days to mature to maximize my use of space. What are your favourite companion plants?

The solution to my earwig problem
(sh.itjust.works)
I have had earwigs eating my balcony garden crops, so I decided to try a solution I found online: add 50/50 soy sauce and oil to a container and leave it overnight. It was filled with earwigs the next morning! So I am setting up another trap with an empty tofu dessert container.
That being said, earwigs aren't universally bad. They help decompose plant material in a compost pile. However on my balcony, they were doing more harm than good. The ladybugs can stay :P

I pollinated cherry tomatoes on my balcony with a cotton swab for the first time and it's working well!

TIL: French Marigolds only need one seedling per pot
(sh.itjust.works)
I had filled a pot with seedlings, so the nursery pots I found at the side of the road came in handy today. I split them into their own pots which I will give away to friends and family once they grow larger.
My goal is to grow marigolds from seed for the first time to enjoy their summer blooms and repel pests from my veggies.

Any advice on drilling holes in a container to use for a balcony garden?

Like hole size, placement, etc?
This is what I have in mind. Let me know what you think!

Local garden centre!
Dollarama babyy
I'm interested too! Not PNW but I could cover shipping if its not outrageous. I'd love to see them if you are comfortable posting images here!
I received the print in the top left from an artist and she threw in that print and the risograph machine on the top right for free!
Hood observation, I'm going to repot it in a day or so.
Is it cozy?
About 5 months.
