Hey, welcome to Steemit, fellow gardener! Once you get over the hump of the Steemit Learning Curve, you'll find this is a wonderful place to share ideas, learn from people and make friends with like-minded individuals.

Here are just a few tips that others shared with me when I first joined here:

1. Don't fall into the follow-for-follow trick. That is not how to succeed on Steemit. All it will likely do is fill your Feed page with things you're not interested in. There are no rewards for following people or the number of followers you have.
2. If you like someone's post, upvote it... even if it's not worth much right now. The thought matters most, and you will grow your Steem Power to get higher paying votes to gift to others.
3. Post regularly and with your original content and photos. Even if the photos aren't great. We love seeing other people's photos and reading their posts. You'll grow a genuine following this way... and that's what you'll want; people who regularly upvote, comment, and share your posts.

I also want to invite you to the SteemitHomesteaders slack community. It is a chat room/group of sorts where a lot of us Steemit Homesteaders hang out to chat, ask questions, and just get to know each other more. You don't have to be a homesteader to join. Anyone into homesteading, gardening, farming, prepping, and such is more than welcome. Here's a link to my announcement post with a little more details about slack and the group as a whole.

See you around!

Welcome Brother-one! Thanks for the shout-outs!
Looking forward to seeing your posts and video's. I need to get my garden figured out to make the most of the last remaining bit of rainy season. But first- Tax season.
I resteemed some articles about how to get the most out of your account if you want to check them out. Follow lots of people and write lots of comments. But then again you were the one who signed me up, so you probably know more about it than I do :)
Hello Louis-bug!
