Will you be growing anything that’s new to you?
@Broadfork. New things for our 2025 gardening season include wild rocket (Sylvetta Arugula), rocket (Arugala Arugala), nasturtium, Ethiopian Eggplant (Solanum Aethiopicum). We are hoping the rocket self sows enthusiastically. #gardening, #allotment, #minnesota.
If your rocket is like mine, as long as you let some go to seed, you'll never need to plant it again. It's a lovely edible flower and seed pod too of course.
@JimmyB @Broadfork. We hope so. The rocket greens season starts early and ends late in the shared reality of the Mastodon gardening universe. #growyourown.
I threw some rocket seed into a big potato sach which I'd had a tomato plant, in at the back end of the season - and it's not cropping nicely! There aren't so many edibles for me, which are as satisfyingly reliable as that.
