Okay, so around mid spring last year, I really started to get into making stuff at home like sourdough bread and butter, stuff like that. Then i decided I really wanted to start a small garden just for basic ingredients like garlic, tomatoes, cucumbers, potatoes, etc. And since it was getting cold recently, I also took the time to learn how to grow pomegranates. Overall it's been really nice and it's cut back on how much we spend on groceries every week, also the food tastes much better fresh.

But anyway, I had heard all the rumors that cucumbers and tomatoes were plants that grew very fast and while they may be nice at the beginning, soon you will get sick of them.... I wish I had listened

I HAVENT PLANTED A GODDAMN TOMATOES IN 3 MONTHS AND I STILL HAVE A WHOLE FUCKING FREEZER DETICATED TO THEM, AND DONT EVEN GET MY STARTED ON THE CUCUMBERS JESUS CHRIST I MADE MY OWN BRINE AND HAD TO TURN HALF OF THEM IBTO PICKLES BECAUSE THERE WAS SO. MUCH. CUCUMBER.

Now that I have that rant out, I think I wanna try planting squash this year😊
