Countdown terminated on Nov 8, 2022, 8:10 AM

Exciting times in the Hive Garden world as @artemislives takes over the running of The Herbal Hive, a sister community to our green thumbed one that focusses on discussion of medicinal and culinary herbs. I know I'll be writing a #gardenjournal post with #theherbalhive and #herbalism as secondary tags this month in support of this, and quite possibly write a dedicated post too as mugwort and lemon balm, and many other herbs, burst into life in my garden. In the northern hemisphere you might be preserving them or using their dried form for winter remedies, so that would be great to share there too. The @gardenhive will also be popping over and voting content there too so do join in your support.

You might have noticed the new look images - I do this when I get bored of the old ones, and when I get sick of a particular app! I hope you like them - but as you know, it's not what it looks like, it's how it functions and what purpose it brings as well. By now The Hive Garden is a real standard for how you all go about sharing and supporting community, and sharing your passion for gardening. Kudos!!

Well I can't believe it's November already and I know that many gardeners have would up for winter. You can still continue to support community by engaging with others and joining in the challenges. If you're hibernating a little maybe a bit of delegation to the @gardenhive account could be a good way to show your support - those votes go along way to supporting the members who post regularly.

The Challenge

Write about what's going on in your gardens in November, even if it's a complete disaster!

You can also write about friends gardens or botanical gardens if your own isn't really up to scratch.

Damn it, girl - not sure whether to bristle, defend or laugh hysterically that it is OK to be not managing the jungle. 🤣 Challenge accepted!

Haha it's only our egos that make us feel like we have to pretend to be perfect!!!

Sigh. 😌 how right you are. It's not even about "perfect" though - just been waiting for the flood-mud to settle and dry so I don't destroy my already hard-packed-pathetic-excuse -for-soil. I was raised with manicured expectations of "garden" and I'm so far away from that it's absurd.

Challenge accepted @riverflows... I am a newbie and I about excited about this🥰 I am about to post here very soon, I just have to add more photos... It's gonna be my first if posted.

Anyway, I would be grateful and honored to be alerted every month.

Sending my best regards. ❤

Always looking forward to new garden contributors!! 😍

Wow! there is another garden journal challenge and I would love to participate on this again @riverflows.

Write about what's going on in your gardens in November, even if it's a complete disaster!

Oh I like this because I wont be shy to show how I felt sad in some plants of our garden.

With this, we will also be seeing other problems in the garden of other gardeners and learn lessons from it. This is exciting. Hopefully I can write about it soon.

Fantastic. Love your garden posts

Like the new look style 👍

 2 years ago  

Cheers, I do too!

Woww. What a great challenge. I will try to participate to this challenge sir.

I have some drafts that I am preparing about some medicinal herbs and some plants from my garden that can be used as such. I think I've found the right Community to publish them, thanks for letting me know.

The new look is very pretty.

Unlike you and other gardeners in the northern hemisphere, from my side the task of the garden is in full swing and I am publishing some posts that show the evolution not only of my garden but also of my orchard in the middle of spring.

The idea of the tag with the username to be notified of the news seems to me a splendid idea and I would like to be added to it as @goisal.

I do not see the expiration date of the contest or am I really asleep today?

Greetings.

 2 years ago  

Oh I'll add the expiration date and put you on the notification list

Excuse me if I ask you again: am I still in time to participate with a post? When does it expire? Thank you!

Wow, there is another challenge to sharing gardening activities. Incidentally in my place, there is no winter because it is a tropical country. However, it's rainy season here and some plants have fallen as well as mine.

Hopefully, friends who are facing winter stay healthy and safe through it, as well as their gardens. I hope so.

I don't have a garden but I have a disastrous weed that's about to swallow us up in my environment. Can I write about that?

 2 years ago  

Definitely!!!!

Thank you. I'll put up an entry.

I am upset that I am too late to discover this amazing platform here. Being a cannabis grower, I will appreciate reminders and alerts from this community.

 2 years ago  

Great! I'll add you to list. It starts on the 1st of every month.

Thanks and will look forward to participating.

You've been curated by @plantpoweronhive! Delegations welcome!

Wow how nice, I think I will soon come with the mess that I have in my garden since the rains have made of it what they wanted. Thanks for the mention for next month, see you soon.

Hello, dear @riverflows, nice to read from other gardeners. we are almost facing winter, cold wind, rain, and darkness all make us very tired. last week when a little bit of sun was out we cleaned up the rest of the garden few tomatoes were ripe on the window. but still, red poppies and calendula keep flowering. meanwhile, read other gardener's posts and have fun. But still lots of things to write about the Indian garden and my in-law's garden from the USA. Looking forward to read all posts going to publish in November. a hug ❤️😊

 2 years ago  

Stay warm! Do you guys take Vitamin D?

 2 years ago  

Yes, many different vitamins and minerals including vit.D
thank you 🙏❤️

Congratulations @riverflows! You received a personal badge!

You powered-up at least 10 HIVE on Hive Power Up Day! This entitles you to a level 1 badge.
Participate in the next Power Up Day and try to power-up more HIVE to get a bigger Power-Bee.
May the Hive Power be with you!

Apparently, I'm growing cats these days. 😂 I think this guy was enticed by the chipmunks that usually frolic through the beds. Other than that and a little bit of lettuce, we're pretty barren for the year. I'll have to start living vicariously through all the Southern hemisphere garden journals for the next few months!

 last year  

Hahah I just saw this! Goodness, haven't seen your garden in ages!

Getting bleak this way, so it's in hibernation, haha!

 last year  

Here is my entry @riverflows. I hope everyone will enjoy seeing our plants in the small garden.

This month I am a bit early and this gives me time to read and support other gardener friends posts.
This is going to be fun.

 last year  

Hey @sofs-su can you post peakd.com links next time, ecency's a bit of a pain for me on my laptop x

 last year  

I'll try. Peakd was my first choice, but since I had problem with it I moved to Ecency. I guess I'll post on Ecency but give you a Peakd link, that should be okay I guess.

Hey, here I am, sharing my humble results and experience for this year. The winter is knocking at the door ;)

I hope someone finds that helpful :)

Have a great one and some !PIZZA :)

Thank you for the inspiration and encouragement, it's always nice to see what people all over the world are growing; we're going into summer, so this is a summery garden, and It only Takes one Seed.
Enjoy!

Awesome, I'll get to it as soon as I can! Sunday here and we have guests

This is my entry for this month's #gardenjournal. Not much growing like in many of the posts I've enjoyed reading, but with winter around the corner it's to be expected.
