I didn't mean to, if I did.
The other day, while in town, I noticed the local grocery store had its usual springtime inventory of starter plants out front on the sidewalk.
Now, I don't plant things. I simply let all the flora at this place out in the middle of nowhere grow as it wishes, when it wishes.
The William Rivers Pitt, for example, grows lavishly with "volunteer" tomatoes and catnip, and given the nature of the William Rivers Pitt, it's usually a darker green than similar foliage on the ordinary soil here.
Where, for about 110 years, there was a large vegetable garden (5 acres?--I dunno, I'll have to ask someone who knows) I leave even that alone, to burst forth as it wishes, when it wishes. I will occasionally pull out weeds, but that's it; I don't plant, I don't thin, I don't "regulate."
Unlike primitives and "nature lovers," I leave nature alone to do its own thing, while nature leaves me alone to do my own thing.

Ping for the list; if one wants on or off the list, please holler at me.
Oh, no, wait....that was Captain Hazelwood.
Never mind.
What about your socks...aren’t they an ecological disaster?
I really love your concern for nature. But you are into “brain-washed.”
Don’t worry about it and just enjoy your plants.
Is it worse than global warming (phony as it is)?
Is it worse than swine/hog/whatever pandemic we are going through (phony as it is)?
Is it worse than Obama (not a phony problem)?
Relax and enjoy your plants.
as you can see this variety of tomato is suffering from some sort of fungus
You ought to be flogged for that....
No!! My socks are always clean and fresh! (OK, except maybe at the end of one of those delightful 120+-degree days in August...)
ROFL
Frank, there is an ecological disaster at post #6. You may have to have the whole thread deleted! LOL!
You know, sir, one of these days I hope to get around to posting a picture of the William Rivers Pitt, that circa 740 cubic yards of antique swine manure from 1875 to 1950, that's a prominent landmark here.
Alas, I can't do that at the moment, until someone else gets done with her soil analysis of the Jungfrau-like mound; as it's her Ph.D., I don't want to mess it up for her.
