I know dozens of men that like gardening, it is actually a pretty popular hobby in Poland if you have garden that is, murican style barren flat lawns are pretty rare here, only some mentally barren noveau riche seems to like them.
I absolutely love gardening; I had to start growing my own herb with the onset of the pandemic; and it just blossomed to a point where I was able to hand out surplus peppers and tomatoes around my neighborhood by the time harvest started rolling in. Fuckin rabbits got into my hot peppers this year, though.
Yeah gardening is dope. Im lucky enough to wfh and in the summer I like to go take breaks during the work dau and stare at my garden and keep an eye on what’s for dinner. I didn’t even do a good job this season, but I’m still hauling a shitload of zucchinis out and sharing the surplus. I’m amazed at how compelling and weird plants can be. Also hanging out in the garden helped me get over being afraid of spiders, big ladies are everywhere, esp in the fall but they’re peaceful friends and I like to think we now have an understanding.
Zucchini feels like it always grows insane; whenever I put those down I always wind up with way too many, rather than the regular too many that I get of my cucumbers, bell peppers, and tomatoes. Can never get enough of the jalapenos to grow, tho… I always wind up with like just seven or eight of those; never a whole bushel
That’s based af. I hate the American/Anglo flat lawn vibe of the west. It’s shit for local wildlife and biodiversity and creates a pocket industry of amateur pesticides and lawn care products which just shouldn’t be needed. Wildflowers and natural fauna all the way.
As soon as I escape apartment living and get my own house, I plan to rip up every square inch of flat lawn my dog doesn’t need for shitting and athletics and replacing it with flowers, fruits, vegetables, and trees yielding edibles for the wildlife and my family. And if some NIMBY home owners org or shitty neighbors try and complain that my garden is lower home values I swear I’ll be planting all kinds of passive aggressive plants like:
the Bradford Pear tree, smells exactly like cum when it blooms
Bamboo, which launches underground ‘shoots’ and can spread to neighboring yards
Cockleburs, which will stick to anything they touch, great to plant at your property edge for your neighbor to brush up against when they mow their boring ass lawn
Devil’s Tongue (the primary name of this plant sounds racist, but the alternative name I chose to use is also the same plant. It is also sometimes called Elephant Yam), which produces a corpse smell even though they are beautiful visually
But, if my neighbors and whatever association is in the area plays nice, then I won’t have to waste my time planting these revenge plants and can instead plant more food yielding plants, then give out my excess yields to neighbors.
I’m referring to the lily name, but konjac is another name as well. Anytime I hear or read about it, it’s always been referred to by the lily name, but that name seems like it has racist roots or something, so I prefer to avoid it and opt for Devil’s Tongue since it sounds fucking cool.

The flatter the lawn the flatter the ass, you can’t explain that
That’s literally it as well 😮💨

Don’t fuck with gardeners!
This “Devil’s Tongue”? Isn’t the primary name “konjac”? Or do you mean the “lily” name

It does sound cool
“Revenge plants” I’ve never heard such a fantastic term 👏
I still find it wild America has home owner associations that police what people can do in their own homes. Fucking wild.
