Not all seeds

I was watering the garden, noting which new veggies were doing well and which seeds had refused to come up at all. It's strange how you can put in whole rows of seeds and have not one of them germinate.

And I got to thinking that it is the same way when you move into a new community. There are some relationships that seem to spring to life immediately and flourish, quickly yielding fruit. But there are others where, no matter what you do, there isn't much kindled. There are some soils where certain things will never grow naturally.

If you want to grow those things, you need to condition the soil.
