# I am pleasantly surprised that I grew all of these plants from seed…

_Posted by Jackye on 2025-04-26_

I am pleasantly surprised that I grew all of these plants from seed (with the help of moon magic)! The hardest part about sowing seeds is the algae. I use cinnamon powder to keep the green at bay, but honestly, it’s the fungus gnats that chap my thumb. Cannot wait for some mosquito bits to arrive as making a tea of these beneficial nematodes is the only solution I found that works for gnat attacks.

I would show the homegrown babies, but Planta directed me to their doppelgänger app: Hampa.
