Not a whole lot in terms of creative hobbies, but I’ve been pretty consistent at the gym this week 💪 I’m in a bit of a slump wrt strength building so I should probably take some time to rework my routine, but I’ve proved to myself that I can still physically be there even when my life is hectic.
Also did my second D&D session, using a pre-made character sheet. Gonna try to learn what the hell I’m doing and make my own character soon. :)
watched a series, you?
Work has been chaotic this week so the days have been late so far, but I did have time last night to make strawberry muffins with a streusel topping.
On Sunday I reported my tiny plant collection so I could bring a couple of them to my desk at work.
Those muffins sound delicious!
They were! Though its a little to early in the season for strawberries I guess, the strawberry wasnt as flavorful as I would have liked. Next time though!
I build mods for a multiplayer survival game, I finished one of those today.
I was finally able to cross pollinate two pepper varieties! They are:
- yellow bell pepper - just some market variety.
- dedo-de-moça - Capsicum baccatum, red, 5k~15k Scoville heat units (hotter than a jalapeño, milder than a cayenne), great flavour.
I want the breed to be: yellow, large, mild but not heatless, finger-shaped. And hopefully more resistant to insects than bell peppers are.
In the meantime I’m still waiting for my chocolate-coloured habanero to grow flowers, so I can cross-breed it. Likely with dedo-de-moça too, I like the shape.
Wow, for some people (me included) it’s hard enough to even keep a plant alive. Cross breeding them is next level
You can cross-pollinate plants by using a little paintbrush to catch and move the pollen.
To be frank it’s only the start - I’ll need to plant and select at least five generations of the hybrid. But I’m really happy, the hardest part was done.
May the pepper gods bless you with bountiful harvest!
Thank you!
I finish this ! It was soooo long !
Looks beautiful! Looks like a granny version of what the Romans used to wear for battle
Ahahaha my husband says exactly the same thing ! 🤣
Lovely colors!
