Steemit community has made me and my garden grow, video included :)
I am disabled and housebound, I didn't go out as I can't walk very far, I spent most time on the laptop on social media or doing surveys. It shows how much I am housebound after a blood test showed I am severely low on Vitamin D, Which I will have to take for a long time. I am not a very crafty person, I would love to be able to draw or at least achieve something but never got round to anything. I was really bad with negative thoughts, constant downs with depression and very lonely.
UNTIL STEEMIT
In 11 months I have learnt to like who I am, I now think more positive about everything, I don't have as many black times and I have started to get interested in Gardening,
It hasn't been easy but with the help on and supportive messages I have done it, so Thank you for caring enough
I had to start from scratch with my garden as I had nothing to work with, I had earned a little bundle with working on Steemit so put it towards my project, have a Steemit funded Project underway
I now have something I am very proud of, whenever someone visits they have to be taken out to the garden first to see my work. I want to make it better and do more so next year I have bigger plans but that's for next years posts
I have made a video for you all, just to show you in real time what is happening and how its looking now, Can you tell I am buzzing. Steemit community has improved my life, its given me so much more to think about, you have all given me some life back :)
Thank you son-of-satire

"Which I have probably bored you all with..... Sorry" This has never been the case! Enjoying your journey and the video! Thanks for staying current with us all!
Thank you for that I appreciate it :)
Your barking fur babies in the video startled me at first. I thought I was under attack! :)
They have to be involved, there a couple of divas lol
Ah your garden is lovely! I also have a little one going on my balcony. I'm struggling with my lavender though, I snipped some slips off a lavender tree at work, and I followed a YouTube tutorial on propogating lavender. It basically said where to snip it off, plant in moist soil, cover with plastic bags, and they should start sprouting roots. Two weeks later and no roots!! ☹️☹️☹️
Any tips?
I love impatience (spelling!?!), they are so underrated
It's very heartwarming and inspiring to hear how Steemit has made such a difference in your life

I grew mine from seeds so not sure as you should be seeing something growing by now
I know! 😰 Super sad! It is freezing though here
Are you keeping them inside as it might be to cold for them
As sad as it is, it can be just bad luck or something else is wrong. Different kinds of soil, temperature, humidity etc. can lead to different results.. and of course, every plant is an individual. One trick won't always work.
Some special shops sell some kind of.. substance to help plant grow roots, it might help :)
