I dunno i just doubt this person exists to any great extent. All plants are great.
Wtf lol? This is completely made up
Fellas, is it gay to participate in agrigulture?
according to dross’s comics yes
Its confirmed, every farmer secretly has a boywife
Plowing them fields is hard work.
Fellas, it’s it okay to have a boywife?
As long as you say “no homo”.
locked in chastity with a remote butt vibrator ringing off the hook while he picks up your order at home depot?
Is that an option!?
i have so much to tell you
I love hot peppers :3
peppies 😍
…fuckin’ pussy?
Sorry, I don’t understand the rules, do we hate peppers now?
I grow a lot of those manly plants lol
I grow all kinds of plants including weed and really hot peppers… but also roses
Who does this ? This looks like ragebait
Maybe it’s the same men that don’t wash their ass cuz that’s gay.
/s maybe
I literally know someone like this…
/s maybe
Well done; that gave me a chuckle…
Its not gay if it your own soapy fingers right…right guys…oh fuck maybe I’m gay. No I can’t be, I hate the gays!!!
- some closeted jock probably.
I’m in this picture and I kinda like it. Edit: super hot and cactus
My dad grew tomatoes, loufas, and those decorative gourdes you turn into bird houses.
I can grow my own loufas!? The scratchy kind? Wait. Aren’t they sea creatures?
Yep you can grow luffa. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luffa
What the fuuuuuck. It’s a CUCUMBER!? This is like an all-new Mandela Effect for me.
Yeah, they’re really cool.
My mind is legitimately boggled, no joke. Are they fussy to grow? I’ve been known to accidentally kill all plants.
Any melon, gourd, or even most vine-based flowers I really recommend a simple automated irrigation mechanism especially in a hot climate because they are thirsty.
I have no idea. Dad never complained about them and had a whole trellis of them.
Now they grow on trellises!? My night is upended. I will be researching for sure, thanks!
I like flowers and tomatoes 😎
E: and pumpkins. Frankly this comic is just to generate anger, all the men I know with green thumbs grew all kinds of healthy and fun plants that everyone enjoyed.
Learned a new thing men are insecure about.

u sure?
Trichocereus bridgesii, monstrose form. Called penis cactus or toothpick cactus depending on spines. T. bridgesii contains higher levels of alkaloids, including mescaline, than the more commonly used T. Pachnoi “San Pedro”. The monstrose form is said to be particularly potent, although it is slower growing.
I must show this cactus who is the bigger man
Nice, when is your wife’s boyfriend visiting next?
The cactus is here with us now ;)
Plant growing is gendered now?
All the cishet men I’ve known who have had gardens grew all kinds of stuff, from fruits and vegetables to culinary herbs and flowers.
Maybe I’m in a bubble but damn I feel sorry for the dudes in the OP.
Yeah this is weirdly sexist. I only know one person this describes because he’s growing weed (legally) in an apartment so he can’t have a outdoor garden
Hell, I know over a dozen men with gardens and only two even grow peppers. Everyone grows tomatoes, though…
Fresh tomatoes out of your own greenhouse are amazing, that’s why
My old coworker told me he had only ever eaten the transparent slices of flavorlessness fast food restaurants call tomatoes until he moved from the slums to a rural town and had a fresh one. It blew his mind so much he went on to spend 15 years as a chef.
My dad’s been growing tomatoes my whole life so I’ve been spoiled
I grew up somewhat poor, small town with no fast food, post-soviet nation. We had a garden and a greenhouse. I was a teen when I found out how flavourless tomatoes can be. Because we’d always grown our own and didn’t use them as much in the winter when they needed to be bought from the store lol
It’s crazy how different they can be. I have no idea why they even include shitty tomatoes at those places. Awful texture and no taste, what’s the appeal?
Psychology
Hornworms and squirrells always wreck my tomatoes:(
I have a raised bed and just hang a loose net around the whole thing so the squirrels can’t get in. Otherwise those little buggers will take one bite out of each tomato and leave the rest for me to clean up.
It’s not immediately clear to me how this deters such pests.
The netting isn’t big enough for squirrels to get through. It’s draped down from the trellising, and pinned down to the ground. There’s no way for the squirrels to get in unless they climb up and over, and they don’t seem to be able to figure that out.
Not sure what to do about the horn worms though.
Oh, so there are also trellises of some sort. What else is there? It’s also still it quite clear how this is configured - are these frustra surrounding each plant? Because that sounds like a lot of work for each tomato.
As for hornworms, best we’ve found is a daily sweep with a jar of soapy water for ritual executions.
I’ll just send a picture:
This was before I added the netting. I use tomato clips to hold up the plants:
Then the netting just goes all the way around the outside hanging down from the top, and secured at the bottom with ground clips.
Fucking stink bugs! My plants got a little out of hand this year and I had to pluck stink bugs off them every day. Still 60+ lbs of tomatoes tho
Bro how big is your fuckin’ garden
Also may I have some tomat plz
Too big lol, the rest of my crop is frozen waiting to turn into sauce which is good because we’re out of last years sauce
I get it. I’ll help use up those extra tomatoes for you
Do what my dad does and plant like 40 of em, they can’t eat them all!
Yes, they can.
Well, shit. Greenhouse it is?
I’m debating replacing my ugly old shed with one
Sounds like a plan. Until those fuckers learn how to open doors, I guess.
yes. everything is gendered for gender warriors.
i’m cishet and i have a garden and most women i date think it means I’m secretly gay. the cat doesn’t help.
gardening is considered feminine, or for old people. not for younger men who are supposed to be virile and dominant. they should be hunting.
Weird. Have they seen how much you can provide from a garden?
Also, having a garden doesn’t preclude one from hunting… whatever that means in the modern era. You can only eat so much meat.
That’s wild, I’m sorry you gotta deal with that.
Survival skills + demonstrated empathy/care with other living beings are positives for any person. Hopefully you find someone who appreciates that. /gen
Seriously. Who could talk shit on local wildflowers? I’m feeding bees up in this B.
I’m encouraging wild flowers to grow in between my berry bushes.
Nice. I just threw down some plugs and watched em go
Your method is probably easier than stealing berry bushes from the woods and hoping they bring flowers due to birds.
Easier sure, but better? Doubtful
Same, I don’t know any dudes into gardening that care about that shit. One of them does grow peppers, but it’s because he likes peppers, not because he’s worried growing other stuff (which he also does) will make him look like a pussy.
I’ve gardened all my life and my favorite flowers are morning glories, please shove a cactus up your ass. Thank you.
Cacti and carnivorous plants are super cool tho??? Especially that you get cacti cuz of how resilient they are, a great first plant, can recommend. And growing your own food/spices as well? Also Ive never seen that stereotype lmao
Yeah it’s kinda weird. As if anyone is growing weed because it’s manly and not because it’s awesome
I genuinely regret all my cacti. I have like 8 Peruvian torches about a decade old from seed, and I like to put them outside in spring, so they don’t get all spindly and pathetic, and dear god are they heavy and dangerous to move now. They are like 4 foot (1.2m) tall or so, but can get up to 16 foot (5m)… whoops.
But I don’t want to kill them because, like… I’m proud of them for thriving with me.
I’ve been resisting buying a cactus for awhile now and I think you just gave me the courage to put the idea out of my head forever lol
For anyone feeling the same, maybe check out caudiciforms as a substitute! They grow slow, don’t need much water, and come in a bunch of cool varieties. It’s like bonsai without all the pretentiousness
If you have a botanical garden nearby, you could see if they’ll adopt them. You could also check with any greenhouses.
I wish I’d known this before committing inadvertent genocide (aren’t they all?)
That’s a great idea! There’s actually a couple places I can think of that might be interested.
