LV Gardening Theres more to gardening than just growing your own food. Gardening is about healing and relaxation. I am an ICU nurse. I find that to be true.

There's a saying that ICU nurses like things that don't talk back and gardening tend to be a hobby that ICU nurses enjoy. I enjoy getting up early in the morning, grab a cup of coffee and get lost in my little garden. Most of the products I'm using for my garden are from Amazon. I am also an Amazon associate.

I am the sun, the moon and the stars. I am a dandelion.

There are some people that no matter what happens to them in life, they will find a way to thrive and flourished. And then there are those who are super spoiled by their love ones that if you put them in a hard situation, they crumbled.

A dandelion plant can grow and flourished in a little cracks on the sidewalk. Dandelion can grow in little sunlight where most flowers will die. The dandelion has three stages of its life. At first it's the sun, then it becomes the moon and eventually turns into stars. That is so awesome, right?

The rose is the opposite. The pH of the soil must be just right. Not too much or too little water. Not too much or too little sunlight. The rose is like a spoiled brat.

If you can be anything in life, be like a dandelion lol.

That's why I've made dandelion a part of my life. I love dandelion tea. Since I'm a Southeast Asian, my foods are always salty. Salty foods causes me to retain a lot of water so I would usually drink organic dandelion roasted root tea because it has a diuretic effect. In other word, it made me p**s a lot to get rid of the extra water in my body. Btw this is not medical advice. Please don't do what I do without talking to your doctor.

I started my gardening hobby about three years ago. At first, I didn't know what I was doing. I also don't know why I got into gardening in the first place. I guess it's because I've been keeping house plants for the longest time. I guess I like house plants and gardening because I'm an ICU nurse and I like things that don't talk back to me lol.

When I first start, I heard that strawberries are easy to grow. I bought a raised garden bed and plant one strawberry plant with a jalapeno plant. Before I know it, my strawberry plant is taking over the whole raised bed. I didn't know that strawberry plants are very invasive. They shoot out what we called runners. These runners would plant itself in another spot and become its own strawberry plants.

Eventually, my raised garden bed was full of little strawberry plants but no flower or fruits was produced by any plants. Finally, around September, there's a few flowers and four tiny strawberries came out of it by late October. Unfortunately, two of them rotted and only two were left. So I took the two tiny strawberries back inside and shared one with my one year old LOL. It's actually very sweet even though they were small.

I found out the reason why my strawberry plants don't produce strawberries. But it's okay. I was happy with the many strawberry plants that I got from one plant. I couldn't wait until the following spring so I can separate those strawberry plants into different spot in my backyard.

I found out that if I want my plant to produce strawberries, I have to cut off those runners. That way the plant will focus it's nutrients and energy on producing fruit.

I'm not sure if this planter is a good idea, but I can't wait to try it this year lol. It looks kind of cool. https://amzn.to/3Gq7CG8

The raised bed I'm using is this one here. I love raised bed so I don't hurt my back. It's also very easy to put together. You can get it here. https://amzn.to/3k6uz9Y
