I grow other plants too.

My wife and I both enjoy growing our own vegetables as well as ornamentals. I love botany in general and apply everything I've learned about growing to all we do.

One of my rhododendrons:

Re: I grow other plants too.

Beautiful. I'm thinking about getting a degree in botany, or atleast a minor in it. Growing the herb has shown me how amazing plants really are.

They really are. I've loved to grow plants since as far back as I can remember. That's why after my very first taste of cannabis I knew I'd grow it.

EDIT: And thank you

Re: I grow other plants too.

I had already taken it all down for the outdoor growing season when someone suggested it, but this coming Winter I'll make sure I journal my indoor hydroponic veggies too

Re: I grow other plants too.

you're making me blush.

I have about 6 different gardens in my yard and in every single one I have at least one variety of columbine. As to not completely hijack the thread I'll only share a couple.

I've absolutely adored lily of the valley every since I was really young.

Re: I grow other plants too.

Madre and I invest most of our time in the garden as well. We have a considerably large vegetable garden. Mostly just peppers and tomatoes.

Then we have a few rose bushes, some poppies, which are gorgeous, snap peas, a rhohohenhron bush (which is huuuuuge) and some honey suckle. We also have some lavender growing, which makes this place smell awesome right around this time!!!!!


I'll definitely try to snap some pictures.


Oh, we also have this great grape vine that grows on this wire next to our garage, it was there before we moved here and the grapes are sour as shit, but it's definitely cool.

Now if i could only find some catnip for my Norman.

Have an awesome day OSG! Nice Bush!

Re: I grow other plants too.

Looks great OSG. My parents and I also have a garden. They got all their own plants, I mainly wanted to grow tomatoes, onions, garlic, peppers, and rhubarb for my hot salsa haha. We've got like a 20x20 foot garden.

Girlys, I live with my parents in the basement and we have some lavender by the basement windows, you're so right, it smells great, I always keep my windows open
