With everyone practicing social distancing, seed sales are exploding. There will be many first time gardeners out there and we can help them as well as help in making this site show up in search engine results. We have a wealth of knowledge here at this site, let's put it into practice. If we can find a few people to start some educational/informative threads that are titled with something that someone would enter into a search engine, we will help new gardeners with the information and attract new members to Tomato Junction.

Threads with titles such as these that people will search for:

Growing tomatoes from seed.
Growing beans from seed.
How to plant _____.
How to make a garden.

So please help out and start a thread to give these many newbies a hand. ;)

excellent idea. because even those of us who have grown a lot of things have things we have never grown. Even asking how to grow, how to store???, how to use???.... will generate information for all of us. I have never grown or eaten turnips or ruatabagas.... I am 50. no idea how to do so. what they taste like or how to use them.

Well, I tried searching on "growing tomatoes from seed" but it told me the words I used were too common. So I started a thread: viewtopic.php?f=7&t=865

Please help me :D
