Green Thumb is the art of growing plants naturally. 

“Gardening is about enjoying the smell of things growing in the soil, getting dirty without feeling guilty, and generally taking the time to soak up a little peace and serenity.” — Lindley Karstens

Some think it's quite arduous to grow a plant. Some also say it takes talent to grow it. Yet, little did we know that it is like taking care of our pets as well. You need to protect and develop a good relationship with your plants.

Here are some tips for you.

1. INVEST IN GOOD SOIL.

Plants need good soil to grow faster and healthier. 

2.  PICK A PERFECT PLANT.

Choosing the best plant for you is a good idea because some plants are sun-loving, heat-tolerant, or might be ground gobbling's vines. This method would give you a clear plan of taking good care of your plants, what to prepare and what to expect in the long run.

3. THINK ABOUT YOUR CONTAINERS/POTS.

Giving your plants proper space to grow is a requirement. Some plants are best in pots, on the ground, etc. So, it will go back to No. 2 — choosing the plant that suits you (or your personality) is the key. Some plants need not much care in grooming, and some also need a bigger room for growth. It all depends on the plant that you choose.

4. WATER ACCORDINGLY.

One of the most important things about gardening is getting the right water source. However, getting to know well the plant you have is vital to planting because some plants need water while others need less. So, giving the right and appropriate amount of water to your plant is a must.

5. RIGHT ATTITUDE: PATIENCE.

The right attitude to have in taking care of plants is patience, as everything takes time in planting. 

Bonus tips: Having the right tools for gardening is also a plus, such as a shovel, watering can, etc.

Let's save mother earth. Let's plant more.

Happy planting, everyone!
