It seems plants have taken my mind quite a lot of time, especially when I lie in bed and think back of the day. I will try to plan what I can do tomorrow or next week.
This morning, I noticed the pepper cutting seems to root in water, actually its a topping. Two weeks ago, I decided to top the pepper plants, they did produce some flower buds, but virtually all fell off, the weather wasn’t on my side. Since they were not pruned, it might not be a bad idea to do so, although I prefer to let them take their course.
Three tops were cut, I pulled off the bottom leaves, then planted them into a pot with growing medium, but didn’t seem to work, only one still has new growth. So, I took the other two out and plunged them into a water bottle three days ago. I saw a few translucent strings from one cutting, they might be roots, but I am not completely sure.
Today, the celery finally sprouted after ten days, brown seed with white little tail. It’s fascinating that a celery could grow from that tiny seed, but these won’t get the chance to be a big tall celery stalks, because I am going to eat them young and raw. (sounds creepy)
