Welcome!
Question for #gardenstr: is it just me or have you noticed a ton of reply-guys who are obsessed with “invasive” plants lately (most every platform - Reddit, TikTok, IG, not as much here)? Just seems like a lot of angst on that topic all the sudden. 😅 #asknostr #gardening
GM 🤙 I got my first impersonator over on the TicketyTok. They’ve been filling my comments with video-solicitation comments. For the record, I never make videos with just text on a black screen so if you see alt-me out there (garden_variety_jess0), do me a favor and report them. I already tried and TikTok said they’re not violating any guidelines. Lololol. #tiktok #socialmedia
Yeah one of the first things I mention is that if the answer to “why can you not forgive yourself?” Is “because I secretly know I’m gonna let myself down again” then that’s a personal responsibility problem and needs accountability applied.
One of the trending search phrases on #tiktok right now is “how do you forgive yourself” which is a really interesting phrase to go viral (though not surprising with the current level of collective guilt for perpetuating mass violence, but I digress) - but it provided the opportunity for me to pay forward a lesson my old therapist taught me: the why not and so what method. Enjoy. 🫶 #selfforgiveness #selflove #therapy
I took them away from my front flower beds and just use an edge tool and mulch, but I do see the appeal of having a solid border of some kind to block light because the grass is less likely to run under them into the beds. I suppose a low hedge row would work for the same reason. Or cardboard but it’s less pretty haha
What’s your least favorite garden task? I’ll go first: moving border rocks 🪨 lol like I know, I know, it’s free weightlifting, but if rocks could not be so heavy, that’d be great. 😅 Where’s my anti-grav inventors at??

Didn't you do something like this on Tik-Tok?
I don’t have one that is quite that short, but I can make one if that is helpful! Lmk
You guyssss my first Apple 🥹🥹🥹 #gardenstr

I’m growing it this year! Can’t wait!
GM 🌞 These lilies are radical. If you lean in close, you can hear them whispering: “Stop using tax dollars to fund suffering!” Lol but seriously.

I also may or may not have gotten some new apple trees and a purple robe locust tree from Stark Bros. In my defense they’re on sale 😅
