CAS: Sept. 29 2020

 The plants are doing well. They’ve been steadily growing, and I haven’t really noticed any of the leaves or stems dying, except for maybe one or two, which I cut off so that they plant would be healthier. I have been watering them daily; they sit in direct sunlight, so the soil dries up fast. They need a lot more attention than my other houseplants do, but that’s okay. It’s fun for me to take care of them.

Something I’m starting to worry about, though, is the environment they’re in. The seeds of the flowers I planted are flowers that prefer to be outside. I am anxious about how they might bloom without the outside environment they want.

  7 September 2020 These past few weeks, I have taken upon myself the project of growing 3 different plants! I have a strong passion for plants, and I have a whopping 27 in my room as of today… So, a few weeks ago I decided I would try to grow some plants of my own. I went to one of my favorite nurseries, Buchanan’s Native Plants, and I purchased two packets of seeds. I bought a packet of Oriental Nights and a packet of scarlet Flax seeds, then planted those seeds into pots of their own.

It’s shown in the photo below that I planted the Flax seeds into the red pot, the Oriental Nights into the blue pot, and the Alpine Marigolds in the brown pot. The seeds were planted on August 25th. They sprouted beautifully within the next few days, and have been growing nicely. I placed the three pots in a perfectly sunny spot, right on my...

  Here is an image of the progress from September 21: The seeds sprouted so well! I must have done a good job planting the seeds, because they look great so far. I am very excited. I noticed they grow towards the light a lot, which I think is really cute, but every now and then I turn around the pots so they grow in the other direction if they’re leaning over a lot. I am excited to see how they turn out.  I think growing these plants is good for me; it’s fun, obviously, but it’s also something to get me out of bed every day. That’s kind of why I like plants so much; because, if I don't get out of bed and take care of them and prune them and water them, they die. I have something to do every day, even if it isn't a big deal, it always makes my day just a little more fun.
