Those mushrooms are beautiful, joseph. Thanks for posting a picture.
Instead of growing my "hopefully soon to arrive sunchoke seeds" in trash cans, I ordered two 20 gallon Smart Pots. This is an experiment of sorts. In the spring I will be using self watering 5 gallon buckets for tomatoes to see how that goes. I've been stockpiling medium to use for planting. Also I've been collecting free, food grade 5 gallon buckets from the local Winn Dixie.
Interestingly enough, the icing contents of the buckets kills the grass in the back yard. St. Augustine grass. Something is in that icing that the ground doesn't like. Glad I don't eat that stuff.
I am very excited about the sunchokes. I hope I'm successful with them.
Btw, I absolutely LOVE nasturtiums for salads and for their pretty flowers. This tree stump is long gone. But it was fun while it lasted.
