That is such a shame! Only if they understood the principle of sharing, also the insects! But alas nature plays by her rules and not ours. I lost a bunch of pepper plant seedlings due to ferocious eating of bugs. Such is life.

Well they found your garden tasty!

I am so sorry for only replying now. It feels like I type this comment every week or so. Time is such a troublesome thing, I cannot keep track.

Yes, that is sadly so! There is not even one pepper seedling left, after almost 15 or so small seedlings began to grow.

Coriander only one lifting it's head, turn from hot to cold back to hot I think everything is confused.

So true. Luckily, most of mine survived this crazy weather. I try to plant things considered “weeds” as it grows so well in most conditions. Marog, wild mustards, rocket, dandelion, all those herbs and greens that people want to eradicate. They are diehards that even some bad weather cannot kill.

Weeds look superb, growing everything you plant from seed intentionally takes a little longer....

I am sorry for only responding now! Wow what a crazy week, falling ill but deadlines remain.

So true. And the bugs love the things you plant. None of my pepper plants survived, but the garden is overflowing with purslane (if you know if?). So in some sense I am sad but also happy.
