Does a bear split in the woods near Zheleznogorsk?
I bought two strawberry plants at Lowes, they seem to be doing ok about 10 days in. Also planted some flower seeds (Morning Glory) and some kind of sweet bell pepper seeds. Five of the flowers have sprouted after a week, the peppers aren't yet, but according to the packet they're expected to be a bit slower.

I'm thinking of rigging up a little LED light to give them a few extra hours after the sun goes down. Specifically for the strawberries; last year my strawberry plants never really grew, they just flowered like crazy and I got a whole bunch of like 1/10 scale strawberries.

You gotta pinch strawberries before they flower,

and anyways they don't fruit well until their second year.

I've heard that, but I kind of let last year's die because I'm terrible at plants.

If I leave stuff out for more than about 4 hours they just cook and wilt. And we're not even in full-up summer yet.

Yeah that's about right.

Edit: I had 12 pepper sprouts growing, then they literally blew away in the wind.
