So, does that give you a frost-free period from when to when?

Didier's video for the month of May.
At the office, he drinks table water that is well known locally for its virtues ensuring good longevity. Exit therefore the worries expressed at the beginning of the video.

The context :
-I can't go there often
-no watering (the owner does not want to use drinking water, there is a small river in which I quickly dug a "hole" to be able to fill a watering can quickly)
- land never cultivated, never prepared
-unknown land

It's nice to read you again. Obviously, as an extreme gardener and at the same time looking for a house, you have to be very busy. Good luck, and good fun

I planted sprouted potatoes at the end of January, hoping that under two feet of hay they would keep quiet, but the bitches did as they wanted. I protected them with remnants of wintering sail and tarpaulin, they held up well until the end of April, there are a few leaves which took a little frost, but not the entire stem. But it depends what you want to do, experience or not?

Big trap: it's tap water. It's just a container!

[And here is a good example of the risk of the image, which speaks beyond what one wants to say; or at least "visual pollution" that we don't pay enough attention to - even if sometimes I dismiss something lying around that I think will catch the eye!]

Suppose I am playing devil's advocate. The image reveals a sulphurous "container" (from a "green" point of view of course). But where does it come from? Appeared by spontaneous generation? Brought by the winds blowing on an open-air landfill and despite this being recycled as a "container"? Or bought by the owner of the container or his relatives, who were fed up with the hints of bleach from tap water and legitimately wanted to drink purer spring water, even from (res) extractor capitalism sources? :)

If you want the real truth: purchased carbonated water; we have a small reserve, especially for our guests (fortunately, less alcohol and more water are drunk - including, at the end of the meal, sparkling water) ...

And then I was thirsty. I filled this bottle that was lying around. I always have some in stock, for my "confs", where I need a bottle of water to lubricate my aging vocal cords ...

one more question: I have a number of my young tomato plants (2 true leaves) in honeycomb plates, which wither away because they have at ground level a "tightening" of the stem with a whitish color instead of the color usual brown. who has already observed this? an explanation while in the same cell the 2 or 3 other plants are doing well ... for now?

I had this, I have no idea what it is, I just waited until the plant was a little bigger, and I transplanted into pots, burying the "tight" end of the stem. No other anomalies after, that's all I can tell you, I don't know what it's due.

Damping-off, I think. Cryptogamic disease, there are not only "nice" fungi!
