A few weeks ago I trimmed back the zebrina in my snail cage and instead of tossing all of the cuttings, I dug out some little 4oz containers, filled them with dirt, and stuck a bunch of the cuttings into the cups. I have been forgetting they exist patiently watering them on an intermittent schedule and they're pretty much all growing strong.

They all started from one (1) leaf @mishapeep tucked into a package she sent me (a dragon she painted beautifully) that was half melted by the time it arrived. I thought it was dead for a while and then one day the horrible little blackened stalk I had been watering threw out a fresh leaf. I let it grow a couple more before I put it in the snail tank and hooooo boy does it love being in there.

In case you were wondering about fertilizer and what does what. Even the organic fertilizers will tell you the percentages on N-P-K. I’m planting some tomatoes today and will fertilize with something higher in P than N or K because flowers are the most important. I’m using an organic fertilizer that is 4-6-2. Too much nitrogen is for your lawn, not your veggies.
