Okay, very good @minismallholding. I really appreciate both the input on tags as well as the encouragement to continue writing.

My beloved and I are leaving tomorrow for some time away, with the opportunity to share in a family member's graduation ceremony. So ... There will be an unavoidable time lag.

Once home, I'll see about taking the next step and beginning to write about our first season of preparations last summer.

I hope you have a lovely time away.

Just out of curiosity, I see you have a hive tag on your post, which tribe is that from?

Thank you!

That is the PHC tag, which I just recently started using a tag like that. They invited me to join their "tribe" and that is what I saw recommended.

Do you have a suggestion on which hive tag to use (whoever came up with the bright idea of just having these meaningless numbers?! 🤔)?

P.S. PHC => PowerHouseCreatives

P.P.S. Is #creativecoin for more than just artistic posts? I have zero artistic talent ... 😞

I think when you post via their tribe it automatically comes up with the hive number. To hard to remember otherwise.

I rarely post art, so most of my tags are on gardening posts for #creativecoin.

Well, they had instructions about copying and pasting, just like what you see listed on this post now. They said it had to be entered as the first tag, when creating tags for your post. Or it would not work. And that it must have the "-" in it, or it would not work ...

Do you use a hive tag # for gardening that just somehow autopopulates itself? If so, that is a pretty impressive feature in whatever tribe you would suggest.

As for #creativecoin, thanks for letting me know they accept gardening posts. I will use it, as you have recommended!

I don't think there's a hive tag for gardening. When I post through NaturalMedicine.io it automatically adds the hive tag for them at the start. I'm not sure how that's done, though. Tagging #naturalmedicine will also allow it to be seen on NM.io, but the hive tag doesn't get added automatically then.

Oh, wow, thanks for this additional info @minismallholding. So, there is a website for this tribe as well ... Since you are recommending it, then I guess I better figure out how to post from there, for future posts on my "Back to Eden" gardening journey.

Now it makes sense to me that a dedicated website would ensure their specific hive tag would be applied automatically. I had never heard of that before now. Guess I am "behind the times" ... 😊

Have a great day and thanks again for all of your help! 👍


P.S. In my little "pea brain," it is challenging to see the clear link between the content in my post and all of these "hives / tribes," but I'll figure it out eventually. That is, how my posting on gardening would be considered a natural medicine, i.e. #naturalmedicine or creative content, i.e. #creativecoin. I'm sure though, after another cup of coffee, that it will become clearer ... 😉 And I have confidence, having much more experience than me, that you would know the right ones to use.

Haha, yes the connections aren't immediately obvious, however it makes sense when you connect the dots. Many of the people at NM are also homesteaders and like to grow their own medicinal herbs as well. So @riverflows, @naturalmedicine's creator, feels that many of the natural lifestyles can also be included under the NM tag, including homeschooling (natural schooling). Natural healing is often a holistic approach, after all.

With #creativecoin (they also have the desperate website, by the way) I'd guess they're taking the view that gardens are decorative, as are household plants. So we often create our gardens as an artwork, even if they're our food and medicine.
