This is a circle for discussing plants, fungi, and slime mold. From flower beds to hobby farms; from your dying windowsill basil plant to kitchen gardens; from wild mushrooms to your failed tabletop mushroom kit.
If the species falls under the aforementioned categories, you are welcome to share advice, success, and failure.
Identification requests are also permitted, just please add the "ID Request" flair to your post.
Lastly, pictures of animals (e.g. bees) in your gardens are also welcome, but please keep animal agriculture to an extreme minimum--our focus is flora, not fauna.
Guidelines:
-
Be very careful about revealing your location information. If you need to give details, you probably should be as vague as possible, ie: "a desert", "the southwest US", or "USDA Zone 9"
-
Be very considerate of the content of photographs and if they reveal anything that can be used to de-anonymize you.
Rules:
-
No exchanges. Don't give anyone your address.
-
Don't ask anyone for their specific location.
Additionally, the Sitewide Rules and Sitewide Guidelines are both enforced here.

Depending on culture maybe. Some cultures put more pressure on people (specially women) to marry, so I'd say in that case there is oppression
Yeah, but that's just ordinary patriarchal oppression of women.
I am not asexual, I just haven't met a man I'd want to marry. Forcing me to marry some ugly dude would be oppression just as much as forcing an "asexual" woman into that.
(I, too, would usually not care if people want to call themselves asexual, I just think it is covering up societal and medical problems. If people who find porn disgusting just call themselves asexual, there is no pushback against porn, no one opposes the claims that porn shows how you have to have sex. Same with SSRIs killing people's libidos, if depressed people claim to be asexual, then no one learns about the side effects of SSRIs. Not wanting to have sex can be a result of trauma, or of poor health, and if "asexual" is made an identity one may not question, all those things are covered up.)
