    They level out in a few weeks. Once they calm down, make sure they get a ton of sun and even more water. Like tons of water once you into later summer.

      Ahaha, thanks for the guide, water and sun is not a problem in Malaysia, it’s either too blazing hot or too soaking wet. I’m still figuring out whether all the growth guide apply to me or not, since i always found the one that include 4 seasons, while in Malaysia we only have dry season and monsoon.

    It’s almost freaky how fast melons and squash grow, truly remarkable. And they’re mostly being built out of light and water like wtf.

    Zuchinni are preposterous. I think they are the result of some kind of Faustian bargain made by some agrarian ancestor. I have like 12 fucking zuchinni on my counter, they’re taking over my life.

    I’ve eaten two loaves of zuchinni bread this week and I eat an entire cucumber every day.

      Actually a lot of biomass for carbon based life came right off the Earth’s atmosphere. Trees are carbon sinks precisely because they suck the carbon dioxide right off the air. Conversely when you exercise you’re literally breathing out those kilos.

    I’m so envious! I love plants but they never seem to like my care. Most of them end up dead.
