Good shit bruh! Man I wish I had some space for some lemons or cherries. I'm using my aerogarden indoors to try to grow some habanero peppers and cherry tomatoes.

My current aerogarden light only goes up to about 12 inches.. the next one I cop finna go up to 24.. that should be enough for some indoor growing. I haven't found anything that goes any taller in case I wanted to experiment trying to grow some uhhhh... herbs lol

This is my backyard. This was during the beginning of spring of this year.

Cleared up a lot of stuff upon the hill after I took that pic. Now everything is grown out, which doesn't look too bad now. My Dad pointed out that I got grapes growing up there.

My question for yall is...what else should I grow?

I was thinking of tomatoes b/c we eat a lot of those. Any suggestions would be helpful.

@IP360 I would plant the kind of stuff you and the fam like to eat honestly. Look online to see what you can grow this time of year for the region you're in. This site might help you out - https://www.ufseeds.com/learning/what-to-plant-now/

You gotta check what's on season, spring is almost over, gotta look for dinner vegetables

The bugs got to my biggest ones tho 20180616_131137.jpg

:foh5:

Gonna replant from the clippings once I turn and replenish the soil tho
 
Got some chives coming along nicely. I think i'm going to get a dehydrator next time I hit the states. That way I can dry out a lot of these herbs, bottle them up and store for later use.

What's up everybody. It's been a minute. I hope everyone is doing well. Props to everyone out here growing their own food. This is an important thread.

Here's some of the things I've been building and talking about all this time.





We can change our communities but it takes action. This wasn't done with money or voting. This was done and is being done with action and a little bit of love.

Y'all are the first ones I shared these videos with. Share them if you think they're worthy of being shared and holler at me if you'd like to build something similar in your community, neighborhood, or workplace.

Peace and blessings
