Being at home and moving to a place with a backyard in August means I want to try gardening!!! Hahah. From what I’ve heard it’s therapeutic in a lot of ways. Who has tips for beginners?! Books, things to start with, what tools do I need, ways to be cost effective!!!! Thank you 😀🥬🥒🌶👩🏼‍🌾

Only thing I have is what I heard not to long ago. Gardening is the process of learning to kill things less. August is the end of most growing season I would just a local gardening group to see what works in your area.

1) start to garden stuff you like, don’t go overboard at first
2) download the Planta app to help you track when to water or feed your plants.
3) sing to your plants, they love it.
Keep it simple and have lots of fun!

I know there are some creative professionals in here so thought I'd ask. We're trying to call in to my friends internet radio show and change our voices so he won't know it's any of us. Any app or device we can use that would allow us to call his number and have us change our voices? We're hoping a girl can sound like a guy and vice versa.
