Alright, then my apologies.

The one tomato plant was as an adult.

I didn't know what I was doing because I was living in Maine at the time, not in WA state. So, things can be quite different.

Either way, even if we try and we mess up, (which I fully expect to happen when I try growing in pots, because I've never done that before), we learn as we go.

But, the more that people learn to help themselves, without the government all up in our business, and messing everything up for us, the better.

I want to learn not only how to grow, but learn how to somehow get my own seeds or clippings, whatever, from any plant I do successfully grow, because I do not trust our government at. all. in any way, shape, or form.

I feel like all of what is happening is being done on purpose. And I think a lot of people are going to suffer. I don't make $300,000 a year, so apparently, according to some idiot at Bloomberg, I'm supposed to eat lentils.

I also want to get seed packets asap, before this government gets another wild haired idea - I seriously distrust them that much.

I fully believe that they are trying to destroy this country, and they will do anything that they can to ensure that people rely on them, not themselves. At this point, no one can convince me this is not what is going on.

I know. It'll be interesting what they campaign on. They are going to have to do a lot of denying, spinning and twisting. It's already started...Putin will be responsible for all the bad things. Lol

Myself I grow tomatoes for one reason and one reason only. They taste like real tomatoes.

Yes, I tend to vote more for the Republican side lately since they make better sense with spending Biden’s BBB plan is a failure failure and spending more isn’t fix the economy.

As for the New Green Deal, that’s a crock of BS. Can it work and do we need it yes, but in gradual steps, not in some overnight force-feeding attempt to shut down our system to make it work. Plus, until China and India are held to the same standards of the Western countries, it’s not going to work.

Biden screwed up or whoever is making his mind up for him, from day on. He ran as a common sense Centrist, but chose listen to the Far-Left, so I’m hoping that the Democrats loose big time in November to stop the damage Biden is causing, with all his failed “plans.”
Upside is the BBB failed and thus didn't cost anything. It's one of those cases where being ineffectual is a win. Actually, that's usually the case when it comes to Washington. The more mired in partisan gridlock it becomes, the better off America is. They get less done which usually a good thing.

Yet chances are that Biden/Harris will be reelected for a second term in 2024, and again "with the most votes in American presidential history" no matter how unpopular they are.
