WTF is this Outside and why would I ever go there? Y’all be tripping.
Kidding aside, my wife has several raised beds in our south-facing front yard, but they were made with pine and she will need to re-build them next season, but cedar is expensive. Everything is expensive. There are some kits, however, with all the cedar included that are, quite frankly, cheaper than buying the cedar boards and making them ourselves.

Went to pick up my little dudes from my farm
Remembered to take a picture of the avocado tree this time. I think it might be dying because it’s very warped.

Got a shot from the avocados too! How many can you spot?

This is the reserve we can’t/won’t touch no matter what. Since it’s too dense, i never went there. My uncle got curious this week and found a new lemon tree bearing fruit!

Also, one of my orange trees is bearing giant oranges this time. I love OJ so i can’t wait to harvest these babies

Wow! Looks like you got a lot of good stuff at the farm. Is the reserve dangerous or just too difficult to walk through?

Both! lots of spiders, including Phoneutria nigriventer, one of the most dangerous species ever. I saw them there but never had courage to take a picture. Usually they go inside the house.


I swear to you these spiders have both HP and MP bars

Also, little harmless snakes, scorpions and other bugs

Geezus!!! Those things go in the house? I dont blame ya. I wouldnt go in there without a good reason either. We just have ticks and snakes mostly.

i captured one once and released outside. I was terrified! My uncle usually gets rid of them since i’m too afraid of big spiders. They usually won’t attack you unless they feel threatened

Looks like we are going to have about 500 passionfruits this season (only a 10x exaggeration)

i love passion juice fruit. I think it’s my favourite. Either water or milk based!

Were all those fruits flowers before? They probably looked pretty nice!

I never really notice because they seem to bloom the most at night, so it’s hard to track their locations in the morning. Plus I was gone for 3 out of the last 4 weeks! So… Maybe!

Just began germinating these seeds. Late, I know, but I am moving them inside by the time it cools off. I plan on keeping them for a few years, which I have learned is possible if they don’t experience a frost.
