Easy Peasy

If you grow plants for yourself then you grow them for the benefits they provide us.
In fact, hardly any plant is a weed, or should I say useless in some form.

One of the easiest plants to grow, at least in my case, is dill and purslane
Since I don't plant them, I scatter their seeds around the garden every year.
In the spring, when the plants start to grow, I try not to cut them, no matter where the seeds are.
So that they come as wild plants that I grow, without any special effort.
The only effort is not to cut them with a hoe when I dig up other plants.

One of the easier plants to grow is zucchini. It just needs enough water to provide itself.
Of course it depends on the variety and soil type, that's a whole science now.
But they are extremely productive, they produce well, and they can last throughout the season.

One of the plants that is easy to grow, in my case is sour cherry.
I think it is the Apricot variety but I am not sure myself since I got them.
With the initial 4 trees I have a total of 17 sour cherries.
I think the soil around me is perfect for them because they produce a lot of young plants.
New shoots have even sprouted in the front garden from the neighbor's cherry tree, which is right next to the fence.

This year we were unlucky due to the spring frost, but many other types of fruit also suffered.

The advice I would give to every beginner is: Don't give up.
To always be free to try to sow a new plant at home.
To learn about everything slowly whenever possible, about plants, soil, fertilization....
To not be overwhelmed by information and not know whether it's the right thing to do or the right thing to do not .
And in the end, give up.


Thanks for reading.
Until next time.
Stay healthy.

I really love this part! 👏 It's true that if we want to plant, we better think twice because there are a lot of challenges we can face when we choose to plant. As what you said which is true, we don't give up in just simple failure but rather learn everything but not to be overwhelmed specially if that was a first time we gonna try planting. Or else we will give up one day. 😊

I agree, every plant has its purpose and there’s so much joy in watching them grow, even eh wild ones. I like your advice for beginners, it’s a beautiful reminded to enjoy the process, learn slowly and never give up. Reading this makes me want to go check my own garden right now. 🌱

Oh man, zucchini grows itself if you're not careful!

And yes, I'm a huge fan of seed sprinkling and letting things grow what may!
