I learned how to garden

Gardening is a lot of work. But hard work and effort pays off in the end, usually. 

I have learned the importance of fertilizer. Before this class I thought that you fertilize one time in the beginning and then all you have to worry about it making sure your garden is watered. WRONG! In Florida, the soil lacks essential nutrients that fertilizer provides. 

Also, I just thought that weeds were annoying before this class. I had no idea that they steal your plant's water and nutrients. 

I really enjoyed learning about gardening, even though some of my plants died. I plan on having a small garden in my backyard next year.
