Plants are ultimate Motivators to human kind

As I started knowing more about gardening more and more it teaches me one ultimate thing. Plants are ultimate motivators to human kind.


In this Selfish World, We have plants which are standing selflessly never discriminates in the name of caste creed or race. What they need is a gentle care which may be very less effort any human can do for the fruits they bear. Can we really provide simple care to plants who feeds us endlessly. Are we really ready to give them care they require or we will just left them for dying.


Plants not only gives us fruit but they also provide seeds in  abundance to us and paves way to endless supplies to us for our food requirements. It is very difficult to payback for their selfless service.

Just think one slice of tomato can give you 10-12 tomato plants easily. Just think how many plants can be obtained from one single tomato.
Plant provides the way to regrow them again and again and one single fruit / flower provide seeds which can help in regrowing them multiple times. This process is never stopping.
Just imagine if that is not the case, could we able to survive, think of the seeds and plants, they may cost much more than Gold.

Since we have that in abundance supply we dont care of them, but compare if we have tiny bit of Gold, We may buy a big locker to keep it safe. Giving plant a healthy medium to grow may be much less than this but it doesn't seems to be sign of wealth and hence we just dont care.

What plants taught me
1. How to do selfless service without discriminating
Can we atleast do one service selflessly for everyone and make change in someones life.
2. A way to leave the legacy for themselves
Is there a work we are doing which will build a positive legacy for us. Some work for which we are remembered.
3. Taking care of Environment
Are we taking enough care of environment or we have become source of contamination.

Have you learnt anything from plants: Comments are welcome.

How to start growing food at home: Vegetable gardening at Home

Growing your own food provides you with healthy life, happy life.  If you are ready to make your hands dirty to start your own garden, you are a beginner, then this article is for you. Starting your own vegetable garden requires motivation, patience and most importantly caring for the plants you grow. It requires consistent effort to yield the fruit from seeds. If you want to start then start growing from seeds directly.   Growing from saplings/seedlings acquired from somewhere else like nursery requires extra care so that plant settles in new environment. Yes you heard it right, plants also need adjustments in new environment like human beings.  Many beginner in my opinion makes this mistake and get the seedlings/plants from somewhere else and eventually because of lack of how to care for these plants, these plants die often. The Start Space is not a constraint, in the smallest of spaces it could be started.  There are some veget...
