Timed my grocery run well - got back just as the rain started. Light rain, but still.
Will relax a bit more then start on more of Operation Sort Shit. Probably the back room as it's at the can't-walk-through-it stage.

A Lifehacker article says sterilising new potting mix is unnecessary unless it’s for seeds… However. Due to energy constraints I’ve planted up a single unsterilised test pot. I chose the cat grass seeds as they seem tougher, cheaper and easier to get than the heirloom seeds.

This potting mix is definitely coarser and lower quality than when I did the spinach over lockdown. Seems to be a few little pieces of mulch in there. (For the baby spinach I got a good quality tomato and vegetable mix, sterilised it, mixed in slow release fertiliser and put a thin layer of special seed starter mix on top for them to germinate in.) It also warns about microorganisms. But it does have plant food that wouldn’t be ruined because I didn’t use heat. I guess this will tell me just how precious I have to be.

If anything happens with damping off or mould I’ll sterilise everything and do the extra steps for the other plants.

I wish I had more physical reserves, more space, and didn’t have to worry about moving. (Or the cat absconding.) I’d love to have a catio and a vegie patch

Edit: Melbcat keeps not eating her wet food :(

Nasi Lemak with Beef Rendang please. I'd also like a replacement throat if possible. Mine is very sore and it hurts to swallow 😭
