How to start your own home garden

We can all agree that gardening is not for everyone unless you have the will and the patience to learn from it. Plantita speaking, we can grow whatever plant we want with consistency, commitment, and by treating our plants like they are part of the family. Secret is out—give your plants a little motivation at the start of each day by greeting them, “Good morning!”

This pandemic has changed the way we view things. It has changed the way we live and learn.

Most important, it has changed the way we survive and perceive things. During the height of Covid19, most of us have turned on our survival skills. Whether financially or emotionally, all of us have unleashed a certain skill to survive. The COVID-19 protocols are truly anxiety-inducing tasks to do. Most of us are mentally drained as we fight this dreadful disease. And as we learn to co-exist, we must arm our mental and physical health with the pleasures of nature.

Today’s generation thought of gardening as a daunting job to do. To others, it is tedious and only those with “green thumb” can do it. From choosing the plot space, planting the right seeds, to having a wide selection of fertilizers, starting a garden surely comes with responsibility.

Evidently, gardening is a skill that most of us, especially this generation, must embrace and learn to be able to enjoy life amid the pandemic.
