Too easy! I finished 2 hours early and left the exam before everyone else in the room (CAFEP-CAPES, for private schools). It is the same exam for public schools, you only need to choose.

There come the roses’ diseases, as usual. I think it was a bad choice to pick roses for this type of garden—not enough sunlight, not enough space, hence all the usual hard work for not much reward in the end. I also noticed a lot of cheap flowers that are being replaced very quickly.

April and May are tricky months to deal with when it comes to growing plants. You are eager to start your seeds and take your plants out; however, the temperature and the sun are on a roller coaster. From previous years, I chose not to hurry. The plants underwent unnecessary stress, and in the end, […]
