Mistakes I've Made On My Seed Growing Journey,

Hey Guys,
I just wanted to talk a little about some of the mistakes that I've made on my seed growing journey this far.You can take a look across this blog to follow along with my seed growing journey if you're interested.

I've tried experimenting with a lot of different seeds in the past 8 months and all of it has been a learning experience for me.. the good and the bad. 
I have to be honest and admit that not all of my experiments with growing my own seeds has been successful, I've had more failures than success but that's all part of what I wanted, I wanted to learn as much as possible, and every mistake brings me closer to a more successful outcome in the future.

The important thing I'm reminding myself is that I have to keep trying, I won't beat myself up over the mistakes I'm making because making mistakes is all part of life and it's what makes me human.

But I've also learned a lot, I had failure with my lilac bell peppers because I didn't take into account the right kind of temperature that these peppers needed, it was my very first experiment with growing anything and I set myself up for disappointment here because I simply didn't know at the time just how fussy peppers can be, but that doesn't mean I won't try again. 

Almost all of the things that I had growing in grow bags in my backyard were eaten by snails and slugs... and one of the grow bags was even destroyed by a bull hoof! (yes that actually happened!) 

So if you've ever made mistakes in your own seed growing journey, take it from me... you're not alone.

Thank you for reading,
Until Next time,
Kim
