GT and you!

GT is keeping me accountable to my plan!
I’m great on getting something started.. but follow-through often is a little harder. Having posted my visions online I feel a greater commitment to seeing the projects completed – and the weeds weeded.

GT is fun. Nobody comes on as “I know so much more than you”. Everyone has a sense of humor.

-- the day you quit learning is the day you quit living.

For me GT has been a true learning experience … so much knowledge in one place and filled with people who truly love to share that knowledge. I feel like I am a sponge.

I also don’t feel there are is any competition going on. Everyone is really excited about sharing what they are doing, how projects have turned out, ideas that they may have, their little “patch of dirt” in this massive world. Their efforts are appreciated here. Me, I love to see what others are doing. I get so excited for someone when they have planted their gardens, flowers are beginning to bloom or have finished a project. I especially love the garden “tours” ...

I also like the freedom that we can say … hmmmmm, maybe you should have moved that, or it needs this, I would have done it this way, or job well done. There is no malice in the constructive criticism.

And lastly, I really enjoy the “conversations or chatting” as I call it that goes on within this forum. People are just plain ol’ folk on here … sharing bits and pieces of their lives. That in my mind is priceless …

A gardening forum that is also a social forum … how much better can you get!!!

I like GT because it is a great way to keep a very organized online diary of my garden and I can share it with others. I like that people are friendly here, especially eco-friendly. I think GT is one of few sites with a true community spirit.

There is no fighting and so peaceful. There is helpful posts .
One never stops learning with gardening I don’t think. There is something always new to learn

This forum never goes down. Every thing runs smoothly

I don’t have the time I wish I did to chat but guess we are all busy this time of year

All your pictures are so nice and thanks for telling me how to post pics. You’ve been all helpful in one or the other

This is a nice place to be

I am happy here

So far I like it as there are people here that appreciate the time and effort we all put into our gardens. For some of us, me especially it is a labour of love. There is something therapeutic about working with your hands in the dirt, seeing the rewards that make you feel better.
