My Personal Plant Paradise: The Good Greenthumb Nursery

Hello every One and happy Fabulous Free Lance Friday!!! Thank Your Regal, Moral Highness for being here, it is always an Honour to Host You in My House. Today I Will likely have more than one Post to share with You simply because it is Free Lance Friday which is a day I allow My Self to Post about whatever I Wish. Although I could argue this is True everyday, I feel I have a moral and ethical obligate-Sean to Keep You up to date on the corrupt-Sean taking over Canada’s capital city of Ottawa and Canada’s Courts, and how I endeavour to bring these People to Justice, rather than leave things unjust is, as they are. My Friends in My Microcosm continuously tell Me that if I did not have such strong Faith in God, I would be lost already, I would never be able to endure what Canada’s corrupt State Actors have done to Me and My dear, deceased Father in Heaven – and You can perceive that to mean whatever One Wishes, the Truth is the same; I am bound to Honour My Father in Heaven.

However, I also appreciate that it can be a little daunting to be reading a Public a Sean Called ‘The Good News Journal’ when all I have to share is evidence of sociopathic narcissists posing as public servants. Please just try to Keep in Mind that it IS Good News because nothing can be done about something if One does not recognize there’s a problem. At least I am exposing the corrupt-Sean of the State Actors posing as public servants in the City of Ottawa and Canada’s Courts, and believe Me when I tell You that the world is taking Notice – but more about that later. In My later Post this Fabulous Free Lance Friday, I Will be tall King all about just how much attention this Public a Sean is beginning to draw on the world stage and what kind of Posts are Drawing them to attend Sean. Trust Me when I tell You it Will be one worth tuning into. 😉

For now, I Wish to share with You My ‘Personal Plant Paradise’ which is one of four pillars I believe help Me stay positive and deal with all the negativity imposed upon Me by the filth of dirty State Actors. For Me, just being in the Presence of plants provides Me with a sense of peace and tranquility. People say that when One talks to their plants they Will grow better (and there have been studies done to suggest this is True, though feel free to fact check Me on that because I don’t recall the source of the study). I can’t say that I ever really ‘talk’ to any of My plants. I don’t name them, either – except for My earnest attempt to remember all the proper Latin names for the plants I do have. There are some common plants for which I still can’t remember the proper name, like ‘African Violets’, for example. The common name is so well known that it’s hardly ever labeled by its Latin name and there are very few (if any) other plants it could be easily confused with.

The above photo is showing the unfurling of the newest Monstera Deliciosa leaf. So far, it seems I get a new leaf every five weeks almost like clockwork. The plant is a year and a half old and was a Gift from a Friend to celebrate My fifty-first name day. There were five of these plants in a six inch plastic pot that was easily carried home on a bus. All were immediately transplanted into new pots, one was ‘paid forward’ to the Friend that got Me the Gift, two were placed in a larger pot together, and two more were potted separately. Of the two that were potted separately, one was cut to the base and divided into four stem cuttings, the other was planted into a larger, permanent pot, placed in the brightest corner of My living room and became what You are looking at now. It Will likely reach the ceiling by spring and the new leaf coming up now Will be even larger and more fenestrated than its predecessor – they can get to be as large as three feet in diameter!!! Hence the name, Monstera Deliciosa.

These are the two that were initially left in the original pot which I’m going to guess they outgrew within another two months (at the very most – it was probably as soon as three to four weeks later). They don’t stay small for long…

And don’t Mind the half finished portrait of Justice Sally A. Gomery. She was the first Judge whose Order required Me to file an ex-parte Motion to vacate for violating the Rules of Civil Procedure and removing documents from the Registry to pervert the course of justice (Genevieve the Lawless Langlais conspiring with corrupt Ottawa Court clerk, Steven the Pathetic Pardou). Sorry, I still have to include the odd reference because the world is watching. If the stupid bitch would just Honour her Oath and hold the People conspiring against Me accountable, I might find the Motive a Sean to finish it so I can Present her with her Gift for Honouring the Role she was Cast to Play in Universal Pictures Greatest Present a Sean. Sadly, she and so many others Wish to make a mockery of the Crown they allegedly represent.

Anyway, the Motive a Sean behind today’s Post, is that the reason for the mess on the table of the above Monsteras (Monsteri?), is because I am literally war King on My plants as I Write this Post and decided to share some of what I’m doing with You for something a little different. The table the Monsteri (I don’t know if that’s correct but it sounds cooler, spell check flags both as incorrect) sit on is basically My plant workshop. The table is easy to clean and keeps the cats from becoming too interested in what I’m doing. [My two cats are the third pillar of the four pillars that provide the found a Sean for Peace and Harmony in My Microcosm.] I was Gifted with a new Motorola 5G phone by My phone provider because My old phone is apparently obsolete now and won’t even work on the 5G system. Protest change, they Give You the upgrade for free (okay, so it wasn’t free – it was a dollar because Canadian law says they have to charge Me something for it)! The point is, I would never buy a fancy new phone because I don’t Give a shit about fancy phones and would prefer to not be on the 5G network if I had a choice – apparently I don’t, so they Give Me for (almost) free! However, it has sufficient memory that I can now upload all the basic apps One uses for a modern phone without it taking up 95% of My phone’s memory, so I can basically take a photo of whatever I’m doing and have it available to Post here almost instantly because it now syncs to My Blog!

I also figured I should tell You the story about the phone because I’m so ‘Lucky’ that it really didn’t seem like a big deal to Me until One of My Friends heard about it and asked Me to get him the same deal. For the next week he wouldn’t let up about it because he has the same phone provider and they would NOT Give him the deal. It wasn’t a ‘special’ deal for Me, it was a ‘perk’ they were offering to every One on their network that would not be able to use their network the following month because of the 5G network taking over. He was trying to tell Me that wasn’t fair, they should have the same deals for every One. The fact is, he didn’t need the phone because his phone is already much better than the one I got for a dollar! And while We are on the subject of Luck, I also told the same Friend exactly a month ago that I needed a new pair of running shoes because I Wish to start jogging. The very next day I won a Strata lottery that I entered for completing a certain number of kilometers within a week, a pair of ‘Terrex’ Adidas running shoes – exactly the brand I was as King for! 😀 I also randomly entered a trivia radio contest because I just knew the answer and decided to call – got through immediately, knew the answer, won the tickets and gave them away because I didn’t Wish to see the band that was playing! I also almost always get a prize of some kind when I go out to sing karaoke. Friends always tell Me I should Play the lottery, but I won’t because I would feel like I was cheating – that’s not how God Wishes for Me to Win this Game of Life We all Play.

This is the watering station where every plant gets watered. I always water plants from the bottom up to help avoid root rot. Over watering is probably the number one cause for plant death. By watering from the bottom, One can make sure that the soil is draining properly because it never takes up more than enough to moisten all the soil in the pot. As soon as it’s removed from the watering tray, the water begins to drain, so the direction of water flow also helps to increase oxygen levels in the soil which help to prevent the dreaded root rot. The downside is that it I had to leave the ‘ZZ plant’ (sorry, can’t remember the Latin name right now) overnight, so I always have a queue of plants waiting to be watered. On average, I probably legitimately spend about an hour to an hour and a half watering and tending My plants.

I’ll Give You a tour of the Good Green Thumb Nursery, then I Will Show You My work bench and take care of a couple of transplant projects.

Yeah, that’s Kingston in the background just about to get a drink of water. Would You believe they are so well behaved they won’t even touch the plants that are sharing the water dish with them? So far the only exceptions are the Spider Plant (another one I still need to learn the Latin name for) and the Fishbone Cactus, and I honestly think it’s just because of the way the leaves dance and dangle in front of them. I think the Spider Plant also probably tastes pretty Good because it’s non toxic and they seem to Wish to eat it like they would eat grass if they were outside. But honestly, so well behaved that it’s only been an issue once (once with each plant). People ask Me how I train them to do things or not to do things and I don’t have an explanation except to say I tell them ‘NO!’ when they are not allowed to do something and they listen. Kingston is so vocal One can have an actual conversation with him if they Wish! Also turns out he’s a Nebelung or a Russian Blue – it’s almost impossible to know because they look almost identical and Nebelungs are a hybrid that were essentially aiming for the characteristics of the Russian Blue and managed to successfully stabilize the breed (meaning that they successfully crossed pure-grey cats for eight generations so that there are no recessive genes, officially creating an entirely new breed of cat). They are both considered rare and apparently highly coveted, so he’s effectively worth $800-$1200 which isn’t too shabby for a fifteen pound cat. There is a very cool looking miniature jaguar (house cat) that is worth a ridiculous amount of money.

It’s called an Ashera and they say prices can range from $10,000.00 to $75,000 and even upwards of $100,000.00 for some! That is a crazy amount of cash to spend on a house pet! The image may be subject to copyright, so please check out the website if You Wish to take a look! 😀

Alright, finally what I have on the operating table for this evening…

Here We turn wine into water by emptying the bottle and refilling it with water. Then We leave it overnight (at least) before using them ‘FIFO’ style (first in, first out) to refill the watering trays. The clear container is fertilizer I make My self which really only gets used on My pepper plants for producing fruit (and why they are so huge in such tiny pots). I basically recycle all organic matter back into My soil so that there are always things breaking down in the soil which basically provides sufficient slow release fertilizer for most house plants.

First of all, how do I know this plant requires a major transplant for its cardiovascular system?

So We can be pretty sure it Will require a new pot for its growing root system.

And so I have a wonderful clay pot that is just the right size to upgrade this plant that Will last for at least another year or so.

Clay pots are much better for drainage and for keeping plants in general than plastic pots. When I finally inherit My wealth, I Will upgrade all My plants to clay pots. In fact, I Will even design pots of My own!!!

And the patient is now ready to accept the transplant.

Oooh, babies!!!

And re-cord them in new soil…

I hope You can see what I did there. I’ll fast forward the next operation. A picture is worth a thousand Words, right?

The root system is tiny, therefore so is the pot. Placing this plant in a pot any larger is only going to cause it to stay wet too long (root rot) and make it prone to falling over (which is why it’s being transplanted into a smaller pot). Succulents like to be crammed but the plant would be too top heavy for the pot, so it gets a very hard pruning. This Will allow the roots to support a much stronger, hardier (and bushier) plant in the future.

Finally, We get all the surgeries performed and hope the plants are happy in their new homes.

And the picture in the above collage that shows a chopstick is Me trying to point to a tiny Crassula Golem. The pot it’s in also contains five Crassula varieties that were started simply by placing five evenly placed leaves on the soil and watering from below every time the soil dried out completely. If You zoom in You might even be able to see the shriveled old leaf from which it sprang forth.

Well, that’s My Personal Plant Paradise for You, I hope You liked this Post for a little something different. I’m sure You can tell I am passionate about My plants as this took up roughly five hours out of My day and I would guess I spend an hour to an hour and a half daily tending My plants. Although I don’t talk to My plants, I don’t just believe that plants are conscious and aware of Me, I know it’s True because I’ve proved it before (more about that another time). But plants communicate on the subconscious plane of thought, so they can hear My thoughts about them, which is far more powerful than Words because they know it is genuine. It is the language of the Heart; He-Art in Heaven.

Love and Blessings,
