I didn't realize you have to water it, so my cactus die
“Uh, I couldn't lie. I just- straight up, no, I'm not growing anything. I tried to grow cactus, but I didn't realize you actually still had to give it water, so my cactus died, so I'm straight up off growing things. Like I kind of- yeah, I wouldn't, I wouldn't be able to grow an onion, let alone anything else.”

Pumpkins, watermelons, sunflowers, roses and more
“Yes, I'm actually growing a lot of things in my garden this spring. I have pumpkins and watermelons. I have some sunflowers growing. I have a few roses. I have daylilies. Let's see, what else. You know, I've been really trying to grow strawberries and for some reason, I um- where I live, it's really hot, so strawberries aren't working, but everything else's just taking off. The pumpkins, I have like, easily like eight or nine pumpkins. It's pretty awesome.”

Is this a metaphorical question?
“Okay, I don't know if this is supposed to be a metaphorical question, and I apologize if it is, but no, I am not growing anything in my garden this spring. I live in an apartment, and I'm 22, so I don't have a garden.”

I'll probably start with the garden herbs
