Thanks to everyone who entered last week's #creativegarden challenge!
If you miss the deadline, don't worry! You can still write on that theme - you just won't be selected as a winner, but will still get a chance for some great upvotes for great garden content!
Here's last month's entries!
🍅 @riverflows wrote about gardening under a totalitarian dictatorship
🍅 @multifacetas wrote about her big problem with rats - even though she has a cat!
🍅 @owasco cleverly wrote about how the most joyful thing in the garden can be the absence of things, such as phones.
🍅 @fantagira wrote about the joy of the tiniest fuschia
🍅 @missjoycee wrote about vegetable gardening in schools - this is an initiative in the Phillipines you may have seen in other gardening posts on Hive! This post really details a hydroponic system. Bringing gardening to students must certainly be a joyful occupation! She writes:
Not only we have saved money, we have also enjoyed the benefits of eating healthy foods from the blessings that we harvest from our garden. Indeed, there's so much joy about a garden not only because of the anticipation it provides, but engaging our learners into hydroponics and vegetable gardening teaches them to be responsible, strategic, patient and optimistic- the qualities that they most need in order to be successful in life!
🍅 @selflessgem also wrote about a school garden
🍅 @ivycrafts gave great instructions for air layering
The Winner - June Creative Garden Journal Challenge
Unfortunately some fantastic posts didn't qualify as the rules asked for no more than three photos. That's quite the challenge, we understand! But sometimes less is more, right? Don't worry, we still upvoted and reblogged your post, but we just couldn't put you forth for some prizes, even though we wanted to! Also, make sure you explain what prompt you are writing about, because some didn't seem to suit either prompt at all.
This week the winner is @fantagira, who wins 75 percent beneficiary for this post! Congratulations!
🌿🌺The July Creative Garden Challenge🌷🌿

This Month's Prompts
Each month we'll supply TWO prompts. Choose one - or hey, you can do both if you like! And don't forget, it doesn't even have to be based on fact - you could write a fictional story or a poem if you like! The trick is to consider the word 'creative'.The prompt is just a jumping off point.
Prompt 1: The thing I love most about the Hive Garden community is....
Prompt 2: My biggest garden disaster was....

!QUEEN
Your hard work has paid off Queen @gardenhive, fantagira(1/7) is grateful for the passion and commitment you put into this post. Keep up the amazing work.
In fact @fantagira has given you 50.0 BUDS! You can find it in your hive-engine wallet! We hope you enjoy it a lot!
BTW! BUDS is the token of the hashkings ecosystem, you can use it to have discounts in all our games or stake it and earn rewards now!
I don't see a countdown, and I use peakd. I'll write one today and hope it gets in on time.
Here's my bonafide entry!

Oh man I love the gardening community here! Such a fantastic pastime and to garden right along with folks from across the world via the blockchain is even better.
I really wish we could settle on 1 flag to fly as I have seen #hivegarden, #gardenhive, #creativegarden and others. Perhaps I am confused or not paying close enough attention but some guidance would be awesome.
I will happily disqualify myself from prizes if there is only 3 pictures allowed ;). Too many things growing not to share and pictures tell my garden story best.
I will pen a garden update today and look forward to reading all the submissions!
Hive green thumbs rule!
Oh and here is a little garden love for you!

The challenge is not too hard. As part of this community now, expect my entry soon. But, I wish I can get the peakd link for the time
You have trouble with PeakD? I cannot comment or upvote (or post) -
For a ludicrous length of time now, I have failed to get around the No Access:
WRONG PASSWORD
Never mind that I copy-pasted it and saved in Google Chrome.
My Last Pass got hacked, and every password there was lost.
But I had kept passwords in chrome.
Just... meh....
I also cannot delegate or make wallet transfers (to host prizes, e.g.) -
yes
I need to resolve these crises
I know
I know
I hope you get peakD working for you!
