Hey-FYI your radish plant leaves seem to be getting eaten
Chris198I
Chris198I

RiS, i have issue with your comments, and i'm quite tired of not speaking up for myself, but i believe in this instance, it's proper, and necessary. i take issue with your comments, of pinpointing the picture, plant, that has imperfections, due to insects. yes, all gardens, and plant's, can't be perfect, it's completely unachieveable, due to the size, and amount of plants we have. we are trying our best, and i must say, i got very disappointed when i read your comment. i welcome all comments, whether critical, or not, but i find in this time, it's very difficult, to understand, that out of all of the pictures i shared, you pinpoint the plant that has a few holes, and imperfections. normally, i would let it roll ,but right now, it's a hard time. things have been rough. we've lost 3 dear friends who have passed away, in the past 6 months, and 2 of them recently plus family, friends, who haven't been too well, and needing prayers. it's been a rough time. we find simple joys, in life that bring us comfort, during these times, that can be rough. Holly has had it very hard, with the past 3 years, and we bring her here, and this is her first gardening season, and she's so proud, of her planting, gardening, her radish plants. She's giving her all, through migraines, asthma, she's been enjoying her gardening experiences, and that's what matters most. DS is about imperfections, no one is perfect and we all are here, because in life, we all have been through a lot, and are a bit wounded, and needing support, and care, and there's no need for judgemental comments. i welcome all comments, feedback, and also support, with any tips friends can provide, if needed, especially about gardening.i find, and haave found your comments, to be judgemental of our plant, that's not perfect, and i feel like it's insensitive, especially with whats been going on.maybe if you read my journal the other day, you would have seen and noticed, that we are grieving the loss of 2 friends, who passed away recently. i value friendship, i cherish it, very much, we all do, and i just feel your comment, is worth standing up for myself, for Holly, family, friends, who enjoy seeing our garden, and who don't pinpoint any imperfections, especially in these times when things are rough. Your comment could have been sent to me in a message. i put lots of hard work and love into my writings, and my journals, pictures, and We are VERY PROUD of all of our plants, whether they look perfect, or if they have any chewed leaves, or holes in the leaves, it's a plant, its a live, and we have friends right now,who aren't here, who we miss, and we know they'd love to hear about, our see any pictures of our plants, and they can't, because they passed, and we're very saddened by that.with all due to respect, if you have any comments like your comment you posted, send to my inbox, please, or at least recognize our other plants, or give any tips you can, because we understand, all gardens, plants, aren't perfect, none are, and we all aren't perfect, and that's what makes DS the special place it is. we send our best wishes, and wish you well. i just felt it very strong in my heart, to stand up for myself here, and for our garden.

Our plants and garden are very healing, and theraputic for us, our experiences being out in nature, give us strength, and hope, and we are so proud of our plants, garden, and all the love, and hard work we put into it :) We couldn't be any prouder. last year, we couldn't garden in our backyard, due to a tree falling on our house due to a storm, and to be able to garden again in our backyard, it's very special to us, and we are giving it our all, and we dedicate this year's garden, to our friends who have passed. their love, light, and sunshine of their hearts, glows upon us all, in our daily lives, and we feel their prescence with us, and we know they are shining down upon us, and our garden, and we love knowing they are forever in our hearts.

i know with emotional times, we can be a bit sensitive about things, words, comments, that can affect our hearts. i've always taken a lot of pride, with our plants, garden, i know all plants may not be perfect looking, or may have had some troubles with insects chewing at the leaves, but i'm always proud of our garden, and the journey of the season :) sometimes over the years, i've had times where i felt our gardens were being compared to others in our city, and made me feel like our plants, garden wasn't good enough, and i struggled with that for some years, but everyone's comments here, compliments, always reminds me of the beauty of our garden, and i love to base our garden journey's, as an un-perfect garden, that is like us all, un-perfect in life, but always proud of how well we do :) getting back into gardening in 2002 when i did, as one of the best blessings in my life, that i will always cherish and treasure :)
i love being able to share our garden across the miles, here on DS, and i want to always feel like, even if a picture or two, is a rougher one like a plant that may have some chewed leaves , i want to feel comfortable taking those garden pictures too, because those plants are strong too, like us, and can make it through, and continue to grow and thrive, like we do in life :)
