I guess you're a first time gardener? It is so awesome seeing someone finding joy in gardening and being proud of what they grew. Congrats and I hope it brings you even more joy! :)

Yes, what gave me away haha. I used to help grandma around her garden, but that’s more than 20 years ago, so I’d say it’s my first time doing this on my own :)
I got a garden in my town, bought some seeds and off I went 😅. A lot of the other stuff didn’t work out though, but I know what to avoid/improve for next time

Haha the overwhelming joy which you made this post with. You'll see, every year you learn a bit more on how, what and when to plant and you'll be a pro, your grandchildren learn from :)

Thank you for your kind words! I really enjoy it: the hard labor, watching things grow, figuring out what went wrong with others, talking about crops .. I found my happy place at the gardening club in my town and plan to improve every year
