My green thumb is brown. I'm just throwing that out there. haha I have tried to grow my own herbs and even though I did just what all the directions and tips say, they all died. I was so sad.
I would also LOVE to have a garden but my dogs would dig it up and eat my produce. LOL So get a raised garden box, you say? Oh I have thought about it but it would have to be pretty raised to withstand my bullmastiffs and, actually, I just have not had the chance to build my own. And now we are PCSing so there is no point anyway.

My problem is although I want to do it, I have zero motiviation. I have a hard time keeping up with things that I start and we are always really busy.
I'd start the garden or whatever then I'd get home to find that my aunt and grandma did everything and I'd get aggravated...lol.
Oh I do still try but it takes a bit of time to recover from the time before. I just tend to buy. haha
Quoting abra:i used to be the same way. ive killed cacti before!! but dh really enjoys fresh herbs and produce so im woring to get better at it. the results are hit and miss but the hits make it worth it!

Sounds like a fair plan to me!
Quoting NicholasMama608:
I also can't garden. I overwater or underwater things. I'm just no good at outside stuff. Lol. That's DFs job around the house. He takes care of anything outside and major stuff inside that I can't do and I take care of inside and keeping things clean.

Quoting VisionSeeker:
I grew up in the gardening business. It's in my blood I guess. I never have problems with growing stuff.
