      I would try small grow bags. You do need at least 6-8 hours of son for food to grow. Or you can try growing inside with a Hydroponics machine like Click and Grow.

    Good morning everyone I’m excited for you Helen. It’s been fun watching you gather your crop. I have a small patio and would like to at least try something I’m inspired and thinking about the hanging bag because I don’t want the bugs getting into the pots or maybe I should try the grow bags and be brave. Laugh out loud. I’m definitely organic and careful most of the time of what I eat . OK let’s go. I love your journal.

    What is your opinion on mushroom coffee and if you ever tried it would you share the one you tried I value your opinion

    • @HelenH
      @HelenH  10 місяців тому +1

      Yes. I just did a 30 day trial with mushroom coffee, mushroom matcha tea and the mushroom creamer. I like the matcha better. I was shocked. However for those like me who love the flavor and scent if coffee it takes gearing use to. But they are correct with they say the bloat goes away, the energy increases and it cleans you out.

    Hi Helen, yesssss!! Your garden is going to be amazing yet again this year ❤ People don't sleep on the Dollar Tree seeds. I spend at least $50 to $75 on their seeds every year. I also got me a garden journal for this year. I'm going to use the barrel pots from Dollar general this year. Along with the grow bags and a few pots. Yeah, I know what you mean when you say your big sister bosses you around. I have 2 of them and I love it ❤❤ my sister's are my best friends! Thank you for sharing 🥰 Ramona

    Your garden is going to be so cool. This is my 5th year gardening. I think i will grow those plants that draw aphids in containers. I was plant based until this spring. However I eat a lot of plant based meal. So here in GA we dont begin planting in ground until Easter. I'm so ready for spring. Hey Journey 🐕 No cameo appearances today? 😂😂😂😂😂😂

    As far as keeping the grow bags moist idk if a tray would be enough in Texas. It was hard to keep mine moist in NC. Try some small baby pools or a tray/container that can hold more than one plant.
