Week #1 - Charles' Garden







So far my garden is doing great I've been keeping it in direct sunlight in the warmest spot in my backyard. The advantages in doing so keeps the soil dry basically its a hardy plant so time to time I like to keep it in my room under direct sunlight in my room window. And because my pot has no drainage hole Im able to just water it less frequently. My water source is dishwater & every friday I use the filthy water from my fishes' bowl as a source to water my plant

Week #1 - Lalo





Dear Person,

I named my plant Lalo. I have nice conversations with him near a nicely lit window. He doesn't have much to say usually. He's been looking a little gloomy as of late, maybe it's due to theview outside the window, really big and beautiful plants, but I assure him one day he'll be just as big and he already is beautiful.

Sincerely,
Carly Cram

Week #1 - Brian's Garden



I've been keeping my garden in direct sunlight, in what is the warmest spot in my house. This has kept the soil relatively dry, as much so as I can get it with out adding direct heat to it. My plan is to keep it as dry as I can, and only water a small amount once per week.
My water source is a leak in the pipes under my sink. A lot of soap and grease residue leaks out into a catch pan, which I'm using as my water. Hopefully, the plants aren't the type that watches their figures.

Week #1 - Amy's Garden



I replanted the garden in a large clear vase and added some rocks at the bottom for drainage. I'm using laundry rinse water for the plants, and because there is no drainage hole I will be able to water it less frequently. I'm also keeping the garden outside so it can obtain more sunlight.
