Current cycle status: Fuck if I know! It's CD18. ~X(
QOTW: Do you have a green thumb? Do you like to garden/grow plants or veggies?
I have somewhat of a green thumb. I've never attempted to grow food but I get giant irises and my hostas (sp) usually do well (but you can't kill those if you tried). I do grow herbs like basil, mint, chives, etc. I like the smell smell and we use them in cooking sometimes. One spring- when we had horses I went as far as saving their shit to fertilize with. I've also heard coffee grounds work well?
But I don't do high maintenance plants or flowers.

Re: ****2IF weekly checkin****
QOTW: We have lived in a townhouse/rental property for the past 8 years with no outdoor gardening space. But, we recently bought a house and are moving at the end of April so I really hope to start planting/gardening this spring. I don't/can't really keep indoor plants b/c my cat just eats them and pukes them up all over the house [-X

I do not have a green thumb. I kill everything I touch. And I mean everything. My husband on the other hand is Mr. Gardener.
We have a big garden. I can't wait for fresh veggies. We use horse manure. Coffee grounds help keep rodents out.
Extra: I'm exhausted!
Rainbow Surprise Baby due 05/26/2017
Green thumb? I want to garden, but we have a condo and would have to do a container garden. I did that one year and kept up with it pretty well but it was a lot of work. I also tried to do a plot at the community garden, but I just couldn't commit the time needed to keep it weeded. And the damn deer ate all my squash blossoms.
QOTW: Do you have a green thumb? Do you like to garden/grow plants or veggies?
I cant seem to keep anything alive. I love flowers though and my husband wants a backyard garden.
QOTW: I am attempting my very first garden this year. Just today I moved my seedlings into bigger pots. I usually and a plant murderer but I seem to have better luck if I stick them outside and leave them the hell alone. I'm trying a bunch of basic herbs and veggies. Somehow ended up with 4 different kinds of tomato. The seed company kept sending me free ones. I see many Caprese salads in my future. YUM!

QOTW: yeah, no. I wish. I've had 4 bonsai plants & have killed every single one, within weeks. We live in a really small condo, so even if I wanted to torture plants outside, I couldn't.
Green thumb yes- do I like gardening? No- talents are wasted on me but I've grown potatoes in my house (yes for realz),onions, eggplants, herbs, carrots, pumpkins... All this in or at a townhouse, not easy to do.

I have a very light green thumb. I can keep some things alive, easy things to grow, but anything that requires more attention is better off in someone else's garden!
