Let's Plant

Planting is one of my hobbies and I love planting more plants and trees. Since I was 9 when I got interested to planting when our Science teacher when I was Grade 4 had an experiment and those were planting beans, planting potato and planting onion. Although I tried to plant malunggay (moringa plant) when was probably 6 or 8 but it didn't success. That's why, my planting journey when I was 9 was memorable for me because it was my first success of planting.

When I was 11 when I got addicted to know about different plants out there. I was wishing to plant sunflower, bougainvillea, eucharis lily (I thought it was daffodil), anthurium, zinnia, etc. I was really obsess to plant ornamental plants during that time. I was Grade 6.

New Year 2019, I was turning 19 when my desire to this hobby returned. I tried to plant garlic, onion, ponkan, dalandan, etc. I planted some of the seeds through egg shells, some scraps, few amount of soil and etc. During that time, I wanted to change my routine and overcome my anxiety because last 2018 when I got anxiety and insecurities multiple times and thankfully, it helps me a lot.

During quarantine season, that was 2021 when I continue to plant again. At this point, I planted more ornamental plants. fruit-bearing trees and even trees. It helped me to become productive during quarantine season. Until now, I love this hobby and I'm dreaming to have a farm and execute what I've learned about permaculture. I'm really interested about permaculture and even urban farming, since I'm living in the city. It is one of my interests and I have an intention to do it since, it is economically friendly and of course, environmentally friendly.

Plants makes us happy and it has a lot of benefits. That's why this is one of my hobbies I love. It helps me to relax and through this hobby, it helped me to overcome my anxiety. Besides that, we really need to have a garden because it is convenient to produce our own food.
