Hello hello my gardening friends the October challenge is in the final stretch I think I almost missed it this last week I have been very busy with my mom's health doing medical studies and that takes time I hope to be within the deadline to participate I don't like to miss this challenge things are a little complicated but here I am not with very good news since in my garden the only thing I have now is weeds.

Apart from my mother's health situation, going in and out of clinics when she arrived, I am very tired and the last few weeks have been one of a lot of rain, which makes the weeds grow. Today when I woke up in the morning I wanted to die when I saw that in the garden I am practically harvesting weeds. The neighbor when she passes by my house asks me where my sunflowers are, because the last ones, although they were small plants, looked very pretty.

Although all is not lost, the flowers are very beautiful and stand out in the weeds, for example the Indian cane plant is big and green with a strange but beautiful flower, the weeds cover it but it still grows and continues to offer its healing benefits I use the leaves to make infusions and help my kidneys.

The plant that is called acetaminophen for its benefits for general discomfort is really very good it expanded a lot due to the rain I have to prune it is not a weed although it looks like a bush.

The purple starthistle plant doesn't mind growing inside the weeds to look beautiful, but it needs some TLC so it can show off its flowers better, I'm trying to see the positive in my garden hahaha, but if you ask me how much maintenance it needs I say 1000%🤣🤣🤣🤣🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈.

I hope to make time this week to clean up my garden and fertilize it for the next harvest. I will see you soon with good news from my garden, so far I can tell you that these last weeks I have only grown weeds.
