leahbobetApparently when I just stuck those two containers of mixed salad greens and spinach that had gone slimy in my fridge *cough* weeks ago out on the balcony*, it wasn't because I'm a lazy so-and-so who didn't really feel like going down to the building's green bin collector that day. Or on the *cough* many days after it. Apparently it was secretly because once it renders down to mush, dead spinach and mixed greens make some really kickass compost.
The mush in question, as well as today's used tea leaves**, is now mixed gently into the old soil in some spare planters I had kicking around, in an effort to wake it up. Judging from the smell and consistency (nice and earthy!) this will probably work. A bean and some radishes have gone into one of them in the spirit of a test balloon. It's nice to know I was only posing as a lazy first-world wastrel who doesn't appreciate a nice mesclun mix in order to covertly further the pursuit of AGRISCIENCE.
Also, having checked this afternoon more closely, I don't have two delicious wonderful homegrown snow peas out there. I have two million and a quarter.
If any of the first batch of radishes are ready? Tonight I'll actually make some salad. *g*
*And yes, I have learned my lesson re: this and bought the smaller size of salad greens. Buying lots of mixed greens does not, in fact, make me eat more healthy salad.
**Black tea with lychee, and great with milk.
