Good question! Glad you asked.

Basil is the culprit. When I was 14 I was watching YouTube. This video popped up, claiming that someone had unlocked an "infinite money glitch." It claimed: if you cut a basil plant at the right spot, and replant it back in soil, then it will grow roots, and turn into a new plant (the whole idea was: infinite plants= infinite money- to what extent that is true, I'll leave for you to decide). 

I wasn't buying that crap. I really thought it was fake. I actually laughed a little bit.

"Oh thats some really good camera work! You made it look like those basil plants just multiplied in from of my own two eyes. Funny."

It wasn't a joke. Turns out propagation is a real thing. Who knew? I didn't!

Once I found out that plants could multiply (like what a novel idea right?), I was compeltly hooked. I have since been gifted a greenhouse from my lovely neighbor (and co-beekeeper). It has opened up lots of new opportunities for me to try growing new things- humidity is the most underrated thing in the entire universe. I'm now using it to grow my microgreens, which I sell at farmers markets.

I could talk about this forever, but I'm gonna shut up now so you can read my blog.
