#god priapus

Last year I started to pray to and work with Priapus as a vegetation and fertility god since one of his domains is vegetable gardens specifically.

I asked him to help guide me and teach me how to grow my own vegetables, how to care for them, how to deter pests, etc.

Since then I've not only grown bell peppers, but I've also planted potatoes, carrots, beans, and gotten a strawberry plant, all of which are thriving.

My bell pepper finally ripened, so I harvested and offered it to Priapus, as I had promised it to him months ago. I thanked him for his guidance, thanked him for working with me, and asked to continue to work with him in the future and to continue to have good harvests like this.

Praise Priapus, god of fertility and gardens! God of vegetables, fruits, nature, and protector of crops!

My pepper plant is flowering :)

This spring, she has about 4 - 5 buds on her, which means 4 - 5 potential bell peppers!

Last year she only produced one pepper, which I had offered to Priapus, as per my promise to give him the first of the produce. Unfortunately for me, last year's product was the first and only ^^"

But I'm hopeful that this year I'll finally get to try one of the peppers I grew with the god's help. He has been so kind in guiding me how to raise this plant properly

Even the time when I was guided to cut off the majority of her leaves because it would genuinely help and I was doubtful and worried I was killing my plant, but of course he was right, and now she's thriving and producing more than she did last year

Praise Priapus Kepouros, keeper of the gardens

Priapus' pepper is ripening

His is the red one :)

I've made a couple other posts about this pepper and my work with Priapus as a vegetation and fertility god, and now seeing it turning red, I am so excited to give him this pepper.

Priapus has guided me and helped me learn so much about vegetable gardening, and I am so grateful.

It started with just this one pepper plant last year, but since then, I've planted potatoes, carrots, beans, and bought a strawberry plant.

Some of my strawberries are already ripening, my potatoes are thriving, my carrots are doing okay, and I just planted the beans two days ago so there's nothing to show yet
