An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men's Club.
1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of "discuss" rarely comply with this rule.
2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.
3. Avoid repetitive topics.
4. This is not a search engine
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions or identify objects. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.
There are a number of content specific communities with subject matter experts who can help you.
Some other communities to consider before posting:
5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.
6. No hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.
7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with "So" - starting a post with pointless phrases, like "I hope this is allowed" or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

There is a Japanese grocery store near me. I'm unsure what the difference is with seeds from near me but am interested in trying one of each to find out.
I am done too, at least with the veggie/fruit part. When I ran out of raised bed space I started prepping other spots. Totaled up to 27 different varieties at the end. I'd recommend getting some strawberries and planting them with your tomatoes. It's a great companion plant and they spread like weeds. The 5 I planted last year are already over 30 and some are nearly 1 ft tall bushes, really impressed
We have strawberry and blackberry from planting a few years ago, and it look slike this may be my first year actually getting grapes as well.
It is always rewarding seeing the literal fruits of your labour.
I know what you mean, that's why I couldn't stop. Everyone asks me "what if the animals get to it before you" and I answer as long as someone enjoyed it
We haven't yet, but we also have a very small sunny section of the yard, so it's not very motivating to plant only a half dozen plants!
When I lived in an apartment, we did balcony heirloom tomatoes. Once you get some of the tomatoes you can't buy in the store, even a few plants are well worth it.
