Pretty sure we nearly killed a few of them though.. we got them right before our trip to CO, and the soil it was shipped in was too dense for long term. She watered them before we left, but some varieties of lavender are pretty sensitive to wet feet.
Some of that pooling on the left is from where we flushed the lines prior to capping them off.
Plants will be in holes in fabric spaced precisely at emitters on the drip tape, so there shouldn't be an issues with the plants themselves getting watered.
Big step up from last year. I'll update with more pictures as we get planted!
Ursa Major, taken this evening! Well, it's not a good picture, but it's my first with my star tracker. Technically not my first either, because the first one was a 5 minute exposure of the back of the lens cap.
Was getting too cold and too late to continue to fiddle, but i think i have polar alignment down ok, and the app figured out.
Now, if i knew how to use a camera at all, this image would be in focus, and if i knew how to use software editing at all, I probably to figure out how to correct the colors being washed out a bit. but those are further steps down the line.
