Prepare your urban garden for the impending Apocalypse with Kevin.
I was walking out of Whole Foods the other day ogling avocados and free-balling straight men in basketball shorts when I noticed a selection of beautiful orchids on sale. I desperately wanted to buy one or two to add life to my otherwise dark apartment but having long ago accepted the fact I was not blessed with a green thumb, was reluctant.
As I sat there weighing whether I should sentence this beautiful plant to death row, this little old lady started commenting on not only the beauty of the plants but how easy they are to take care of – “just one ice cube every week” she said – the last petal on my orchid fell yesterday…after it’s fourth day as my roommate.
Why am I talking about plants, free-balling Whole Foods patrons, and old ladies? Well, this is just my longwinded way of explaining why I gave Kevin Espiritu’s YouTube page a look – honestly, I should treat his videos as gospel.
Unlike that sweet old lady from Whole Foods who offered me both unsolicited and ultimately incorrect advice, Kevin Espiritu, the creator of the Epic Gardening YouTube page, knows his shit. He’s a young amateur improv student who provides solid, practical, and correct gardening advice to a community of over 65,000 eager gardening online ingénue. He’s also not just teaching you which daisies to plant when, but rather how your garden could help you survive the inevitable nuclear holocaust.
So, HEYO fam, roll up your sleeves and actually check out what the yellow orb in the sun looks like – with Kevin’s help, maybe you could grow your own avocado so you won’t need to spend $7 on that organic shit from Whole Foods (how you choose to satiate the eye candy issue is up to you).
Check it out…what do you have to lose?
