All I need is to know that I can, I really can.
Everybody's had become busy with plants. Me, on the other hand is still hesitant.
Theirs are ornamental, me was more of vegetables.
Way back in High school, I know I took care of our small garden in Cagayan Valley, where the weather is much colder than here in Ilocos Sur., so growing plants was easier for me. I tried hard to keep me getting into plants but, it was hard, thus the hesitation.
But then, I always buy seeds
, keep them and thinking when to plant them. Then someone gave me a lemon, after watching youtube videos on planting, germinating, etc., I give it a try.
Out of the four seeds, one survived and growing.
. And it inspired me to try planting again. From the simple eggplant, to few ornamental. I can pat my back and say to myself... "Glad, you didn't give up."
There are times that I wanted to give up on things, but every time i am hanging by a thread, something/someone is pulling be back.
May we all not give up on the things we know we can make it through.

Ohhh, this was me exactly a year ago. We have a yard, but I didn't get serious about planting until the pandemic stuff started. Your lemon story reminds me of my mango plants . . . we germinated mango seeds from mangos we ate . . . and thus far 4 are doing pretty well. Never give up . . . and hopefully the seeds/plants never give up on us either

When we see growth from seeds, it truly is satisfying. I have grown avocado from seeds. And i have harvested my kalamansi na.

@Lucky15 When i was still a student, i threw atis seeds in our yard because it’s my favorite fruit. It grew and bore lots of fruits! But when i left home, it started to die. It’s not there anymore.
