The Sheltering

Fiction, Poem 1 Minute

In the Sheltering after the Fall,
Certain skills will be needed,

Those experienced in growing plants indoors,
Will be crucial to humanity’s survival.

I write poems which are mental health-themed, creative or humourous :). Within mental health I write a lot about: ADHD, OCD, anxiety, autism, emotional traumaβ€” usually with an optimistic slant. My goals for my blog are to give myself a therapeutic, creative outlet whilst also being able to connect with and relate to other people.

      2. Lol, sorry! This is like cookingβ€” I have been told I’m a great cook for simply following a recipe, and it’s the same with plants. A bit of research, gathering the right tools/materials, bit of trial and error and you can’t fail I thought, lol. The end goal is healthy plants, the rest is just a problem-solving/learning process.

        The trial and error bit is where sensitivity is important, but the rest is pretty scientific. Perhaps that’s why these skills are ‘hard’β€” they involve the combination of technical and creative, not too much of one or the other.

        Besides that, I don’t really know what to say in these situations, sorry! xD

      4. I think it is because I send off the vibe that I am going to eat them after they grow. They think why pit in the effort. That combined with the fact I forget to add water makes me a bad indoor fatmer.

      5. Haha! I recently started using an app called Planta. I really just wanted an easy digital way of recording when I’ve watered plants, but this app also reminds you when to water them :). As long as I keep on top of the tasks in the app, my plants are fine! πŸ˜„. I have 23 plants now in my room so it’s pretty helpful.

        You should try growing a snake plant though. They can survive months without water and are impossible to kill.
