Single. Plant. Every. Single. Time.\n\n---\n\n![Imgur (https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/OncAFmn.jpg)\n\n<sub>This was yesterday's effort,<br> thankfully nothing had been planted yet<\/sub>\n\n---\n\nAnyhoo,<br> I've found a temporary solution to this problem and as part of my recent act of self-rewardation,<br> I've purchased a new B.I.Y. (that's build-it-yourself) walk-in greenhouse that I can use to lift my new pots up off the ground,<br> thus keeping them out-of-reach from curious paws.\n\n---\n\n![Imgur (https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/6pNU7do.jpg)\n\n<sub>Boxed,<br> and a close-up of how it should look when built<\/sub>\n\n---\n\nSince it's a portable structure,<br> I've already thought of a few different uses for it around the garden where I can use it to protect newer plantings until they're either better established or fenced off,<br> but for now it will provide a lovely,<br> warm haven for my beloved pot plants and perhaps,<br> a *whole lot* of sanity and peace of mind for myself.\n\nSo,<br> wish me luck as I call on ALL my IKEA building skills to help me out and I'll share photos of the build and finished product in a later post.\n\n<center>\n\n![Line (https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/u7Do3Kd.png)\n\nThanks for stopping by and reading my post,<br> I really do appreciate your time.\n\n### And remember to keep smiling,<br> it makes people wonder what you're thinking...!\n\n<br>\n\n![Kindest Regards (https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/VBf96Pj.png)\n\nIf you enjoyed reading my post,<br> please follow,<br> comment and upvote.\nAll photos,<br> stories and graphics are my own work unless otherwise noted.\n\n<br>\n\n![Imgur (https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/nPCnREd.png)\n\n![Line (https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/u7Do3Kd.png)\n\n[![stnicholas2018.png (https:\/\/steemitimages.com\/80x90\/https:\/\/files.steempeak.com\/file\/steempeak\/alphaccino.art\/g9mDbqfL-st-nicholas2018.png) ![level.png (https:\/\/steemitimages.com\/90x100\/https:\/\/files.steempeak.com\/file\/steempeak\/alphaccino.art\/PIAXLLxw-level.png) ![weeklyAuthor.png (https:\/\/steemitimages.com\/80x90\/https:\/\/files.steempeak.com\/file\/steempeak\/alphaccino.art\/egEMzTZF-weeklyAuthor.png) (http:\/\/steemitboard.com\/board.html?user=alphaccino.art)\n\n<sub>Make your own steemitboard footer with [this post (https:\/\/steemit.com\/steemitboard\/@arcange\/steemitboard-how-to-create-an-awesome-footer-with-your-awards) by @arcange<\/sub>\n\n[![posts.png (https:\/\/steemitimages.com\/60x70\/https:\/\/files.steempeak.com\/file\/steempeak\/alphaccino.art\/7Fl6DhKA-posts.png) ![comments.png (https:\/\/steemitimages.com\/70x80\/https:\/\/files.steempeak.com\/file\/steempeak\/alphaccino.art\/GC7Lp4wP-comments.png) ![upvotes.png (https:\/\/steemitimages.com\/80x90\/https:\/\/files.steempeak.com\/file\/steempeak\/alphaccino.art\/fAZmZvq4-votes.png) ![rewards.png (https:\/\/steemitimages.com\/80x90\/https:\/\/files.steempeak.com\/file\/steempeak\/alphaccino.art\/3CrK0JdL-payout.png) ![replies.png (https:\/\/steemitimages.com\/70x80\/https:\/\/files.steempeak.com\/file\/steempeak\/alphaccino.art\/Ip1amUg1-commented.png) ![upvoted.png (https:\/\/steemitimages.com\/60x70\/https:\/\/files.steempeak.com\/file\/steempeak\/alphaccino.art\/nFJ8gpbW-voted.png) (http:\/\/steemitboard.com\/board.html?user=alphaccino.art)\n\n<sub>*Last update: 23 July 2019*<\/sub>\n\n![Line (https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/u7Do3Kd.png)\n\nProudly representing\n\n![Imgur (https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/WGuBGxi.png)\n\n![Line (https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/u7Do3Kd.png)\n\nProud supporter of @steeming-hot\n\n[![steeming-hot-bot_small.png (https:\/\/cdn.steemitimages.com\/DQmdCimXD2sHmZFpicaiPQvLwHc8T9mbn1PmU5f9QgbsT4M\/steeming-hot-bot_small.png) (steemit.com\/@steeming-hot)\n\n<\/center>",<br>"json_metadata":" \"app\":\"pruner\",<br>\"message\":\"See you on the other side!\" " |
