already i'm kind of sore from planting and weeding. it's so friggin chilly out even though a few days ago it was warm. How do i keep from getting bored by gardening? i enjoy it but sometime it leave me feeling jaded.
Soft music and a glass of fresh lemonade or wine. Don't be really quick to just get it done and over with, then it can feel like you are doing a chore. Take your time and enjoy the wonderment of God's creations that you are improving upon!
Skip pulling weeds. I like gardening because I am into exercising. I also like the fresh salad and tomatoes all day. I live in South Dakota and stay cooped up all winter so when spring time rolls around, I am ready to work in the yard.
Get an i pod or other such device put your fav tunes on and get cracking at the garden. Do things in little stages set a goal of what your are going do not over do it you will get a feeling of achievement. Have a B B Q enjoy it it should not be a chore.Things take time just look forward to what its going to look like. But there is not a lot you can do with the weather...sorry
I loved Science lab as a kid and so I use the garden as a big Science play ground. I experiment with different mulches - deciding which works best for which plant...etc. I also play and do things like decorate a scarecrow, or use some found item as a decoration. I put a plant where it shouldn't be - like a flower in with the onions. I have some raised beds and some flat ground. I also raise at least 1 new type of vegetable every year - this year it is orach. I'm still drinkin the parsnip wine from 2 years ago! I'm also an Indiana Master Naturalist that enjoys doing talks on Wild Edibles. That means I get to leave what some people call weeds grow in my garden for food. Makes a great excuse if you don't get a chance to weed! Play - get dirty enjoy. Find a young child to take with you - that always gave me a new look at the wonders in the garden.
