(Edited)

A place to calm down.

  • After work it is so relaxing to have a moment on the balkoney.
  • I drink a tea, or browse some Hive news.
  • And of course look at each plant about the current health and growth.

Welcome on the balkoney, today we have a look at a few projects and so going on.


Thuja Redwood Bonsai

  • A old tree thqt got a drastic cut last year.
  • Still recovering, a lot of growth is expected this season.


The wild flowers bloom!?!

  • Yeah, they see sun and off they go hahhaha
  • It snowed last night heavyly, but in the morning all the snow was gone again due to some rain.


This old plant 👇 is just allways happy!

  • I replanted it last year so thqt was the care for the next years.
  • This plant is so thankfull and grows great in our local conditions.


Love Crystals!

  • I jave a few crystals around on the balkoney.
  • Makes for some great vibes.


  • Some I found in the mountains during a hike or ehile camping.
  • For example the few pieces here 👇


Oil Lamps for ambient!

  • A old but gold source of light.
  • Having this one from my grandfather means a lot to me. Reminding me of the bright light he had in his eyes.


Pinus Silvestris With A Nistel!

  • Yeah I planted a seed from a Nistel on this little fellow!
  • First time I try this so it will be interesting to see how it develops.


Can you see the seed?

  • It is placed on the spot 👇 where the branch divide.


The big Pinus Silvestris with mushrooms!

  • The mushroom is over but still there!


  • This pot is home for the Pinus Silvestris since two years!
  • I grew that 👇 since it was a seedling, 6 years ago.
  • In spring its the best time to repot as the cycle of growth during a year is quiet complex with pinus trees.


Sokulents are the best!

  • The look is so wild and the flowers are beautifull.


  • Old one over here as well.
  • I took them in about 7 years ago during my civil service, and they where old back then.
  • Honestly impressed of how old they get.


Forsythia Bonsai

  • Yeah, old and gold hahaha
  • First thing this tree does in spring is yellow flowers.
  • Only flowers with the first growth in soring makes it look so nice.
  • Age is about 18 years old!


Thats a small portion of my balkoney!

  • Next time in soring (soon) we will see how everything poumps back to green!

For the first time! Let me show you my terrarium!

  • I keep a albino corn snake in there!


  • You can see her in the back 👇 climbing.


  • Every now and then I rebuild the whole set up
  • Everytime she goes back in it is so cool zo see her explore!


Check the clips here 👇

This rat was also dinner 🥗


Its a frozen rat so we defrost it in front of her terrarium to get her going. 👇

You have a lot of unique things. Is it just a coincidence or are you really collecting things? I especially like the old plant that's always happy. Wouldn't mind having that on the front terrace.

Aren't these Sempervivums (Hens and chicks)? I have one kind of similar to this and I'm trying to revive and stabilize it's growth. From what I found these guys don't always want their soil wet - one thing I struggled with before. I thought I was carefull but it seems that I have overwatered mine before. And now all what's left is a tiny succulent still thriving to find it's way to grow bigger.

I'll share it some other day.😉

Yeah, they realy do not like it to wet all the time, youre totaly wright!
I planted them with a mix of fulcano substrate, coco substrate (about15%) and perlite (anouther volcan substrate realy high drainage). This mix drains realy fast and holds not a lot of water. Also a point to consider is that the pot allows this kind of drainage volume ( just make shure it has a big enough hole on the bottom, I use moskitonet to prevent the soil from exiting)

I love this plant as it is a real minimalist hahah
!BEER 🍻

Yeah, but I never thought they could grow long like that. I'm still trying to figure out if my method of taking care of my sempervivum helps it grow and stabilize, but right I just let it get wet as it is raining right now. I think I have to change the soil these coming days since the former was a 60% pumice and 40% vermicast and cocopeat.
