Experimental garden 2023, Black Saporte, pitaya, kumquat from a found fruit, purple sweet potatoes, black cherry tomatoes, yellow, red, green, etc, mangoes - all from seeds of fruits that I have eaten from store bought fruits.  Except Black Saporte.

Black saporté

I unzipped one column and checked just to see if anything is growing, and it is.

Pitaya seedlings, all the heads are gone, some slugs have eaten them, i saw them. Now only one or two left.... see if it grows into a cactus core...

sweet potatoes, white, and purple types from Egypt, purchased at Paris Store.

after a couple of wks, no sign of life from sweet potatoes which was sitting in a dish of water - being impatient, I just put it in shallow bonsai dish -maybe some green sprout vine for slips coming? but no sign of anything moving, another wk went by, nothing happened, i lifted up the pot and saw a small 2 inch root from one of the holes... oh, its living. So after another day, I think time for it to go into a real pot - why is it time? Its time because, I dont want to fuss w this anymore. No more time. Dont want to spend anyore time on this patate. I upended the bonsai pot, wow, after i shook the earth a bit, lots of white new roots!!! but the on the above earth part, no difference. So, there you go, things are growing - new pot. I forgot to take pics. Next, I will try to grow purple sweet potatoes.
