When you wake up in the morning, and they want to give you thuja and roses
June 10 (Kursk), it seemed to me that everything had already been planted. And suddenly, in a dream, I hear that my father is waiting for me to wake up to go and buy, literally: "something." He is our guest, there are 3 days left before departure. That's…
Okay, let's go. The seller has probably never seen such buyers. The father went straight to the tuya and asked:
- How much is?
- 1500, I will give in.
- We take it.
- How much will you concede? - this is me.
- 200 p.
Have taken.
Then the father asked how much the roses cost? 200 p. They were with buds, the color is not visible. We took a couple. Didn't even ask for the color. The seller was very friendly and lovingly chose and offered everything.
At the same time, they took a bush of Syrian Hibiscus, aka Syrian rose, 200 rubles. We also do not know the grade or color. Okay, father! And what am I? And I really didn't care.
We have no roses, I was all afraid to grow them. Spider mites and other charms did not attract. So just to get accustomed and survive, there are no other tasks.
Well, Syrian roses in Krasnodar grow along the roads, unpretentious, it means. And all, in my opinion, are good in the same way. Since we planted both the thuja and this bush behind the fence, where there were only weeds, then, of course, any cultivated greenery there will certainly be good.
And how to leave with such good
Thuja was heavy. It would seem that you need to call a taxi. And we both forgot our phones at home. The seller called a taxi for us, but... It was not going to go to us. Now, for a person without a telephone, a taxi is not a convenience, but an INCONVENIENCE. They do not want to go to our village, 100 m from the city, next to a super sleeping area, not a single dispatcher will motivate the drivers.
We have already found ourselves in a similar situation more than once. I found the only way out, attach the map to Yandex.Taxi, and now it regularly arrives and takes anywhere.
Two of our minibuses passed and one wonderful Pazik - the door was opened, just sit down! But we are waiting for a taxi!
Result: the call was canceled, we got into a full minibus (we barely waited). Father with a stick, so that you understand the whole flavor :) I immediately apologized to the passengers that the taxi did not want to take us. I paid for 3 tickets (for myself, my father and the "tree") so that the driver would not be angry at least. He was late, and the passengers... Half were grandparents with chopsticks.
I was very lucky with one of the passengers (also with a stick). She helped to attach a thuja in such a crowded minibus. I also helped carry it to the corner (I left my father on the bench with the roses). There are people! Thanks her!
As a result, only one rose was broken; my father had it. Now this rose looks like this:
And like this:
I try to root everything I can. By the rules and without. With Super Root. In peat rooting tablets (large). It won't work, it won't work.
And this is the second whole rose, the next day the buds began to open slightly, it is light:
Father dug a hole for the thuja, dug it in the rain. The pebbles were also selected by other construction waste. Initially, it turned out a pit meter by meter and meter deep. In the morning, her father filled her up as it should, and we planted a thuja with him. She got a couple of buckets of compost.
Cabbage
So I still managed to buy winter cabbage, 4 dozen per 100 rubles. Grades Valentina and Kharkovskaya. Imagine a woman stands at a bus stop, a package in her hands, and offers cabbage seedlings. You can't sell like that. I thought what it would be like to grow good seedlings and not be able to sell them.
And I have a place. Pests, probably, are no longer waiting for a treat, maybe it will work out. That's a lot for us. But usually not all cabbage grows before harvesting. So what will be will be.
Identified in ordinary beds, there is no place in the shelter under the net:
I planted the last ten in the morning. Because in the afternoon, a wonderful, necessary rain began with a thunderstorm and lightning. This is wonderful with us. And in the city all the lowlands flooded, somewhere hail.
That was such a day!
If someone shares tips for growing our spontaneous acquisitions, I will be grateful :)
