Gardening as a hobby.

Did you know that gardening is the #1 hobby in America? I have a feeling I know why (because I love it too). It's so relaxing, and with our busy and stressed out lives these days, it's nice to have an easy and fun way to unwind . . . and see the visible fruits of your labor (sometimes literally!).

I am a gardening buff, and am excited because it's the first time I've had an apartment in awhile that I have space to "do something" with outside. Albeit it's a balcony, but it's long and goes the length of my apartment, so I have quite a bit of area to place chairs and a table as well as to grow plants.
Miracle-Gro® recently launched a new site called Gardenieres, which features hand-picked green thumbs led by master gardener, William Moss. They’re real-life gardening enthusiasts with real-world experience when it comes to growing, anything. The Gardenieres will be covering the country, inspiring us all to get out and garden - they'll be facing unique growing challenges as well as meeting those of us with only slightly green thumbs online to help with issues.

I'm most inspired to do a rooftop style garden just like Pamela Reed. I won't be able to have as many containers since it will be on the balcony, but I'd love to include some veggies as well as flowers - I'm a huge veggie fan. I love broccoli, green beans, peas and kale!

For this project, I'd use Miracle-Gro® potting mix, which feeds plants up to six months with continuous release plant food. I'd also use Miracle-Gro® LiquaFeed® as well while watering, so that my plants would grow up to be green and delicious!

So what gardening project have the Gardenieres inspired you to try?

Don't forget to like the Miracle-Gro Facebook page - you can also talk to fellow gardeners, get tips and share stories. See you there!
