Experimental Garden Day 1 Black Saporte: planted 4 seeds // end of year 7 seeds

 Experimental Garden  Day 1 Black Saporte:  

I planted 4 seeds in long deeper pods, about 2.5cm below earth, 

now, see how long it takes for something to be seen, I understand that it takes about 4 wks, lets wait and see

one seed per pod

seeds with earth filled to the top, seed is about mid way into the tube pods

seeds are planted pointy end up, vertically, the other end was the where the seed was attached to the fruit, that will be rooting end so better it faces down.

I put a small transparent cone on top to keep the earth moist, should water once every two days

My friend brought me black saporte seeds from Asia.

And here we are.

I will follow step by step the above video to see if it would be successful, when it become a strong seedling, the experiment will be certified as successful.  :)

Seedling will then be grafted onto an adult fruiting persimmon tree. Persimmon tree cannot sustain more than -2C, so, no rough outdoors like a normal persimmon.

So, it will be in a green house !

This is a way to go about it from step one to finish, you could apply the same method to do other materials, like wireframes, 3d printing, whatever.  Get plants to grow into the shape you want, then remove the structure afterwards, etc etc.  V gd video, it really helps people to start doing!  Show and do, not too much wordiness.  Thanks to the video maker.  :)

futuro houses // artist renovated futuro house at Havre. Craig Barnes

Original futuro

https://www.futurohouses.com/space-age

I saw this today!

I like the original much better esthetically speaking, but this one has modern everyday usability that the old one including aging materials is probably another animal; this one is, lighter, double pane glasses, though I prefer oval windows. but i prefer openable windows too.

i wonder if there is a problem w insurance for these houses.... and permission to put it where? Only on private properties w greeneries? I think a lot of neighbours would hate to have this nearby...

I like the original overall esthetic unity much better, i think today, if anyone buys such a house, esthetics is a v important aspect. This one, hmm. I dont want this one. And this is after seeing it for a couple of hours already. Price wise 99,000 is a tiny house price, gd enough if people love it. But if design wise, these strange proportioned little feet looks unstable to me, it needs to be flaired like the original. Anyway, not cute enough, not sleek enough, not the beauty that it tries to be. Such a waste of opportunity.

Introduction

If dragon fruit has intrigued you, the small seeds scattered throughout its flesh can be sprouted easily and grown into a dragon fruit plant of your own. Plants can begin flowering in as little as six to eight months, although container-grown plants may take up to two years to bear fruit.
