Good evening dear insta friends! Day 14 of quarantine is nearly over and we are motivated for the next week to come. Okay, motivation is perhaps the wrong expression 😅, but we have at least developed a certain #quarantine routine. What about you?
Today we again did a little craft, one more time with #paperroll....everyone should have enough of them latley, isn't it?

Posted @withregram • @guardian A bacterium that feeds on toxic plastic has been discovered by scientists. It not only breaks the plastic down but uses it as food to power the process.

The bacterium, which was found at a waste site where plastic had been dumped, is the first that is known to attack polyurethane.

While the research has identified the bug and some of its key characteristics, there is a long way to go before it can be used to treat large amounts of plastic waste.

More than 8bn tonnes of plastic has been produced since the 1950s. Scientists say it threatens a “near permanent contamination of the natural environment”.

We are playing along with @startcreativestudio for #artthealphabet with guest judge @minimadthings . Mr 7 and I have been collaborating on an epic house for our @olliella Holdie Folk. The final project will be too big for one post so I’m going to share each room as we finish, starting with the lounge room. Which is missing the TV, as I was made aware this morning. “You can’t have a lounge room without a TV mum”
.
Don’t forget to tag your cardboard posts with #wearecardboardfolk so I can find them to share on Sunday 📦❤️

I’m taking the Pooch 🐶 out for her walk - she wouldn’t stay still long enough for a photo - and trying to decide how to spend the rest of the day. I’m thinking reading and maybe a couple of video chats. What are your plans?⁣ ~ Rachael ⁣

Posted @withregram • @hellohubbub The sun’s out (woohoo! ☀️) and lots of us have a little extra free time - it’s the perfect time to #GiveItAGrow 🌱🌷Here are our top tips for growing plants from seed: 1) Start small by planting “cut and grow” lettuce or fast-growing herbs like oregano or thyme. These can be grown both indoors and outdoors as long as they get enough sun. Micro-leaves can be grown inside year-round and like the name suggests, they don’t need a lot of space.
2) Get to know your seeds. It sounds pretty simple but seed packets are like manuals for your plant, and reading them closely is the first step to getting to know how to care for them. Follow the instructions for how, where and when to sow your seeds and you’ll be more likely to see(d) the fruits of your labour.
3) Choose the right soil. Your seed pack will have tips on what soil your seeds will grow best in. If growing indoors, avoid using soil from your garden as it can bring pests and plant diseases into your home or greenhouse. Opt for organic soil if possible, and always keep it peat-free, as taking peat from its natural environment destroys habitats.
4) Give your plant a suitable home. Check the packet to see how much space your seeds need and make sure to have proper drainage by adding holes in the bottom of the pot or by placing small stones or broken crockery at the bottom of the container. For a personal touch why not make your own plant pot or container from things you have at home, like an old boot or biscuit tin? 🍪 🌱 🥾 #livesavvy #plants #growyourown #planting #seedlings #spring #springiscoming
