Well she evolved to hunt and gather, so maybe don't blame her for gathering.
Lest she switch to hunting
In the end, it doesn't even matter
I had to fall to lose it all
I could kill a cactus native to my location. Because I have. 😔
It's often too much watering.
I'm pretty sure it's because I play them the wrong music.
Wait a second. This is Sounds of the Boreal Forest! No wonder my bamboo is withering away.
If you're not playing Sinead O'Conner for your Bog Rosemary, you're going to kill it.
And poor drainage, the wrong light, lack of nutrients, and build up of minerals or being pot-bound.
My watering is just fine
It just turns out plants like more than 6" of dirt. Maybe I should've realized this already, but on the other hand, I learned this empirically with no support and second hand advice
I'm able to cook, I don't have a cursed non-green appendage, but gardening indoors is a skill I'm still working out
I got so far
But in the end
It doesn't even bloom
This is definitely not something specific to women at all. Men also love to neglect plants.
I think it's more of a satire of a news headline starting with Man/Woman than specifically targeting women.
Or they started with the photo and then made the title.
It's probably both.
Do we have a c/houseplantmemes or a c/houseplantscirclejerk community on Lemmy yet?
Terrariums with small grow lights are a cheat code for these plants. If you keep it mega humid in there and let the water drain away from the roots so they don't rot, they go absolutely ham.
Brings back PTSD from last year
