Hello, everyone. I have a question for you today. I'm wondering, what is the color of the thumb of the person who kills plants? I'm told that if you are skilled at growing plants, growing them to be healthy and strong, then you have a green thumb.
The opposite of that is what I have. I'm thinking maybe it's a black thumb because I seem to have the plant Grim Reaper thumb. I like plants well enough, but I guess I don't think my heart is in it. I water them too much or too little.
