Today marks the beginning of the second full week of Spring in the northern hemisphere, even if some of us are stuck in second winter. Share your garden goals, projects, challenges, and successes for this growing season; share your tips, tricks, and garden hacks, or anything else you’d like. Let’s all help each other grow something beautiful together!
If folks are into it, I’d like to make this a weekly thread for everyone to share updates and assistance as the year progresses. Please let me know if that’s something you’d all like.
I’m not a person with a green-thumb by any means, but I made a planter of fresh catnip for my feline furball, and it’s absolutely going wild. Just a little plant thing I’m proud of that no one else cares about. ;)
Catnip is great for humans as well. Its has a minty flavor and has mild relaxing and pain relief elements. Its even safe for children, pregnant women and can pass through to breastmilk to calm fussy children. Its a very useful and safe plant
I did not know that, but I definitely admit that I’ve been tempted to eat it because of its nice smell. For once my intrusive thoughts were right!
As a general rule if it smells minty it’s pretty good to eat in small quantities. Teas are the preferred medium
The cat’s probably ungrateful but I think that’s wonderful
I love it, I should do that!
