fuzzyredDoes anybody have any suggestions for how to learn new things, especially when they aren't a passion? I'm going to use gardening as my example. I know very little about gardening, and I don't love it, but I do like flowers and the previous owners of my home had a garden. I woukd like to keep it alive and healthy, but I'm not someone who is comfortable winging it, especially for things like pruning and trimming where I might kill the plant.
I learn best when someone shows me what to do, and can answer my questions, but instructions will work too if I don't have a person. I know I could look up many things about gardening, or pick up a book, but I'm not aure I want to wade through that much information on something that isn't a huge interest of mine. Any ideas for finding the basics on gardening, or sifting through large amounts of knowledge to find what you need?
