I don’t do much social media because I don’t need another computer addiction, but I’d do it for gardening! Can you comment, ask questions like we do here or is it just photos?

Yes, check it out. I don't have social media either, but I set up a generic anonymous insta account just for gardening.

I set up an account, but I don't have any photos on it yet. PM me so we can follow each other, but I'm not going to be too interesting to follow...yet! I love GardenWeb and will most certainly stay on here, but the population is dwindling. Facebook drives me absolutely crazy. I'll give Instagram a try.

oh no. I'm already a facebook fanatic and think of it as my daily newspaper. I "like" pages for garden centers, plant nurseries, and local farmers who sell at farmers markets. There's some activity in Gardening in NH group and I just joined something for Pinetree garden seeds. It makes a big difference when the business makes frequent posts. Horsford Nursery in VT makes quite a few. I also like Rocky Dale in VT. Edgewater Farm in Plainfield NH posts a lot of vegetable related photos but in the spring they have great greenhouses open for annuals and perennials but close the greenhouses when the spring buying season tapers off. Spring Ledge Farm in New London NH announces things like farm tours and events. My local nursery usually announces sales or just a reminder of what's good to plant right now.

daffodil, I'm reluctant to try something more and new on the computer. Is it the photos that are most appealing?

I LOVE Gardenweb! It is not that I don't like this. But Instagram has a much bigger community of horticulture fans from all over the world, and yes the pictures are soo nice. My personal favorite are: #cottagegardens, #horticulture. Easy to browse even without a account. "hash tags" (#) are used to tag pictures posted so they are easy to search. So for example for wild flower pictures you would search for: #wildflowers. Similarly if you post a picture of say: Rudbeckia Hirta, you would hashtag it: "#rudbeckiahirta", so others can find your picture. To communicate with other simply add a: "@" preceding their username.
