No title

‘Twas a sunny, dry day. No watering—everything needs to dry out after several weeks of daily rain.

Need to get some pool filter sand to try to make up a mix for cacti. It will be an interesting experiment to see if some of these will like my environment (rain, humidity, hot sun).  There are certain types from the tropics that are probably amenable to my clime. I was surprised to read that many cacti like bright, indirect light. When I think of cactus I think of the saguaro growing in the middle of the desert.

The dragon fruit are starting to wake as I see rootlets breaking out of the ends on two stalks. The first one that showed itself last week has rapidly grown and is sending branches of the growing root.  
Worms are good.
