My gardening has now branched out (pun intended) to carnivorous plants. My six year old has developed quite the interest in them. Tomorrow we transplant two Venus fly traps into a terrarium, and plants seeds in it for more. Other carnivorous seeds will go into the fridge for stratification and will be added to the terrarium in six weeks. My son is pretty excited and keeps talking about seed stratification, which is interesting since I thing marijuana seeds need the same treatment. Oh well, here’s hoping CPS doesn’t get called lol!

Gardening is great with the little ones. Our daughter used to enjoy it. She started a packet of assorted cactus seeds when she was 4. That was 23 years ago. We still have 4 cactus going, one is a fishhook cactus that is as big as a basketball. Teaching your kids about where food especially veggies come from is great.

Well, it’s got his interest, and so he may expand into plants for food too.

Marijuana does not need stratification.
