it’s one of the things I love about gardening
yes… the vagaries of thriving. no judgment
Oh I beg to differ, we make little judgements & adjustments in our gardens every day!
I have no qualms about removing a plant that is not thriving and turning it into compost
Nor do I hesitate to remove something that isn’t doing well. Consider it bad energy. Is there a difference between discernment and judgment? Maybe. Seeing failure to thrive and acting on it vs condemning the individual plant or species for doing a bad job. I think that’s what I meant. And btw I judge constantly which is why I am going on about this.
interesting, I can condemn a plant for not doing well & send it to it’s next life as worm food & can take an animal who is suffering to be euthanized at the vet but would never be able to sit on a jury to condemn a man or woman for a crime no matter how compelling the evidence…
I probably would not have a problem voting someone guilty on a jury even knowing how evidence can be skewed. But couldn’t vote for the death sentence. Too many mistakes have been made.
