Planting.
I do not think I have what you call a 'green thumb' and can easily grow plants.
But as I mentioned again and again, I always want to have a simple veggie garden of my own. Just a few vegetables that I eat.
I have a calamansi plant, but it was given to me when it was already about 3 to 4 inches. It is now taller and I am guarding it from those worms that like to feed on its leaves.
I hope if I pursue this, the seeds will germinate and live 
.
I am open for advice, anyone?

A little patience goes a long way with gardening, especially when starting from seeds. Keep the soil moist but not soaked, give the plants enough sunlight, and keep watching for those hungry worms. Don’t worry if everything doesn’t grow perfectly at first; you’ll learn as you go...hope it helps

Not a green thumb either even the plants in my aquarium do grow well in there but there are times I simply oversee some and I will just see them either die or melt on undetected. I also experimented on hydroponics where I used my used aquarium water to feed them and planted some veggies on it grew pretty healthy at the start since aquarium water was full of nutrients from the fish waste and other debris in it. I have harvested it but I still see that they didn't grow well in the long run since as they grow bigger the more nutrients they need to consume which I think is not enough for them.
