Well done for sharing the bee message, bless their fluffy bottoms! I am a keen gardener always trying to find more varieties of plants to attract more. Have you read about the stingless honey bees of Central America that make a really extra medicinal honey? I am looking into get a hive of these. My grandfather was a master beekeeper so nice to keep the tradition going too.

thank you! it needs to be heard!! that is awesome, i respect gardeners so much haha i tried growing garlic and my plant disappeared! i tried another plant and i accidentally drowned it :( i was so excited to grow it and thought it always looked thirsty lol. i have not heard of them but i will most definitely look into them, thank your for the info! that is a beautiful tradition and legacy to leave on the earth, thank you for sharing!

Never give up on gardening, try starting with something that grows really fast and easily like radishes ( just 3 weeks ) or bok choi or leafy greens. Green beans are also really easy - you only need a few pots on a patio to get going too if you are short on garden space outdoors

@sallybeth23 thank you for your advice! I will make use of it! i am a bit short on space so i am glad to hear that it only takes a few pots on a patio to get started! I have not had the pleasure of radishes in my daily eating habits so i will for sure get some of those started! as well as some leafy greens. thank you for the inspiration!

Excellent and do look into the health benefits of radish - they are a superfood! Let me know how you get on . Do you have open garden space where you live?

i will do that! i do not have any open garden space in my apartment complex unfortunately :( but i am moving next month to an apartment where i will have a balcony and more sun, so i am thinking of doing a contained raised garden bed in some sort of container since my balcony is upstairs and concrete. any suggestions ? thank you @sallybeth23

Oh a sunny balcony will be perfect - you can create your very own hanging gardens of Babylon. I will send you some links to inspire you soon

ahhhhh yesss! thank you so much. i appreciate you!
