These flowers got a lot taller than last time I grew them!! You can't really see the solid yellow ones behind the yellow and red flowers, but they're all very pretty!!  The greens are coming along really well too  |

These are still super pretty!! The bottoms of the plants are kind of dried out, might try to trim those up a bit when I get home today. The greens look ready to harvest too!   |

Took the marigolds out - they had really outgrown the machine. Planted violas in their place!! Soon I'll be harvesting and eating the greens, probably put radishes in their place

The violas should stay nice and small and not crowd the greens out. And their flowers are edible, too. Pretty in salads, on cake frosting, or frozen in ice cubes.

I didn’t know violas were edible too, that’s exciting! I want to try one now  |

Not much to see yet - doctored the pods with peroxide to kill some algae. There are sprouts coming up, hopefully they keep growing!!

A few of the violas are up!!
Ended (and devoured!) the greens and planted marigolds
Decided that the Komodo dragons are only going to get orange, not red and ended it. Planted sunflowers in its place!!

Sunflowers, yay!  Your flower project with the Bambino Sunflower is what inspired me!! I love sunflowers dearly, and can't wait to see them grow in my own machine!!!  |

Have two sunflowers up so far!!
On the violas, gave up on the pods with nothing in them, only 3 pods of violas came up. The others at the back are transplanted marigold sprouts where more than one plant came up from the right side of the machine.
All the marigolds came up, with extras! They've been thinned down now
