San Joaquin Victory Gardens

Project Video Update: Lavender are in the ground! #SanJoaquinVictoryGardens powered through the Labor Day weekend to finish bed prep and planting! Now we just keep these plants alive via the driptape until the rains come. 45 sturdy plants in the ground and now I need to make more cuttings! I'm already dreaming about starting a second location in the neighborhood. The food garden in the backyard will soon get the driptape upgrade to support a bed of lettuce, a bed of asparagus, and keep the blueberries and apple alive. I'll share a video of that work soon. #gardenstr #urbangardening #gardening #diy #lavender #permaculture

GD, for now my morning passed. As the heat sets in and builds past 103 through the weekend I am happyto report that irrigation is set! Irrigation is on and getting tested. Transplanting next! I need to find a video stitching app for mobile that is FOSS. Any suggestions out there? I've looked at Open Video Editor and Bunny Media both out of FDroid store, but some features I desire don't work/are missing.

GM Nostr. Here is a sub 2min, first ever Vlog. In the future I will make them polished but as of now I am super excited about this hose extender. #permaculture #sanjoaquinvictorygardens # lavender #DIY #urbangardening #gardening

NEW PROJECT ALERT: Farming in the city limits. Victory Gardens can happen in any place where there is sunlight and water access. This year, San Joaquin Victory Gardens will start about 50 lavender plants in the front yard of a family who isn't using that space. We will manage the plants for flower production, and plantoo plant soon. Each orange flag will be a plant. Irrigation with drip tape. The single bush in the third picture is the mother plant that I made clones from back in March. The variety is 'Phenomenal' lavender, which can stand up to the heat and blooms all summer. #growster #sanjoaquinvictorygardens #horticulture #permaculture #urbanfarming@
