I’m David. I live in Tacoma, Washington.
I do square foot gardening, home automation with Home Assistant, and keep a pond.





I use the lemongrass a lot in Thai cooking! It’s also a delicious herbal tea.
When I plant live herbs from the store, I typically remove any dirt and separate the plants as much as possible before I replant them. With the live basil and rosemary at least, they really pack them in there! I usually separate out all the individual plants(the easy ones at least), being careful with the roots, give them a rinse, and plant them in a new (small) pot with a clean soil mix. They stay inside for a couple days to get over the shock, on a sunny window sill or under a grow light. Then, just like a transplant, you have to weather them a bit on a mild day before you put them outside permanently. They are often grown in hydroponic environments, and the sun is a deadly lazer.
I’ve got a dozen basil plants hanging out in my greenhouse right now that were all in the same pot from the store. Just planted them out in the garden all summer, and schlepped them right into new pots yesterday.
You can also propagate a lot of store bought vegetables, especially if you have rooting powder. You usually shave off a very thin slice from the bottom to get a fresh surface, dunk it in the rooting powder, and set it in water shallow enough to let the crown hit the top. Change the water every couple days and eventually you’ll get roots and you can plant the vegetable in the garden after a bit. This works with:
and of course you can plant garlic and potatoes but I get fancier stuff from the local garden center (Chesnok Red my beloved)




I feel like that’s probably a badge of honor.


See, it’s a good question! I looked it up, but didn’t find a firm answer. As far as I could figure, they:
All conjecture, but I don’t know!


Sure! My answer may or may not be useful but go for it!


Hi, have you followed the basic setup guide?
If you are less tech savvy the docker installation might be the way to go for Piefed.
Each instance already has the capability of fully changing the logo and branding:
Federation is also controllable, you can just not federate, or block all:

As for the cloudflare tunnel, you should be able to set up an application that points to your local installation.
Finally, if you like the dev installation you set up, and want to move it to production, you can follow this guide , but I’d probably just create a new fresh instance.

I checked it out! I’ll probably hop in intermittently as the crafting urge strikes.
Thanks for putting it up!

Perhaps a triumvirate of vets is after him.


Are you able to check the logs at all?
This may be totally off base but: I recently had some issues with the intel networking adapter on one of my Dell Optiplexes. Still not sure specifically why, but when it was at high load (including during one backup), it was crashing. I found Intel e1000 errors on the host and was able to follow these instructions which seemed to resolve the host become unavailable:

If you like bird art, let me drop a mention of The Bird Museum. It’s a free game (well, walking experience) that features very good and very bad artwork of birds. There’s a random selection of art everytime you reload it. It’s great!


Nah, you can use an HA Ping (Settings>Add Integration-> Ping) trigger against 9.9.9.9 or whatever and run a script if it comes back false for X minutes


I’ve been using Niagara since the first stink of this was in the wind - price tag, yes, but I love it.


Congrats on a year of posting!


I hope so as well! Good luck on the tomatoes and also the other stuff!


Aw, that sucks. Last year a big rain caused this in a third of my roma tomatoes, I was so sad.
I’m now the proud owner and user of a calcium spray to try and prevent this.


I’ll give it a shot. I’m running a Lemmy instance and (new!) a Piefed instance, I’ll try it with both!
