Happy LPUD Hive Gardeners! Come join us in threads!

Hello Hive Gardeners from near and far!

It's @fantagira here. As many of you, Leo Gardeners know, I've been curating from the $leo loaded Hive Garden account @hivegardenleo on Threads, making sure that anyone sharing content via LeoGarden Threads is rewarded!

We are scanning the following tags on #threads on a regular basis:

#hivegarden
#gardening
#homesteading
#flowers
#greentuesday
#permaculture
#nature

and more! If we see garden/nature threads without tags, we 💙 those too :) Although the curation is not as frequent as it once was, due to not being able to upvote anything using mobile threads for over 2 months now. Still, we do what we can to get to those garden related threads!

It took quite some effort to encourage our gardeners to show their gardening efforts on #threads. At first there were few and far between and we were a little sad to see our awesome delegation sitting at near 100% most days.

---

Week after week (after announcing, poking and pushing our gardener's friends to thread) we began to see more and more #hivegarden posts and today I can proudly say that we have quite a vibrant community of gardeners and nature lovers who post threads with our community tags on a regular basis. The upvoting issue made it a little less vibrant though.

From once being amongst some of the most frequent tags on #threads with 24 #hivegarden tags we bragged about couple months ago, as I checked the trending tags, we're much, much lower with only 2 #hivegarden tags today.

Hopefully we can bring back some more gardening activity to threads.

Thread and win 10% beneficiary rewards of LPUD posts!

To encourage members of our community to become more active in LeoFinance's own Twitter, otherwise known as #Threads we said will be setting one gardener who threads with #hivegarden tag on a regular basis as a 5% beneficiary of our #LPUD posts. This month we decided to increase the percentage to 10%!!!

First time winner was @jenthoughts who delights us almost daily with her #hivegarden pictures as well as food she prepares from her own harvest. Jen is our little star and she continues with a great activity on threads, but we would like to reward other contributors too!

@iamchimary and @marajah were the winners of the last post and since we haven't participated in LPUD in the past few months, we decided today there will be 3 winners:

Congratulations to: @caleb-marvel @uzoma24 @chichieze
Keep up the good work guys :)

Today we are participating in LPUD with 157 Leo Tokens, which is slightly above the minimum to receive the badge and if memory serves me well, it will be the first LPUD badge for @hivegardenleo ! We have participated in LPUDs several times in the past, but usually with smaller amounts of Leo staked.

In case you haven't participated in Leo Power Up Day before, there is a prize pool of juicy delegations as well as lpud badge when you Power Up with a minimum of 150 Leo tokens on 15th of each month (then write a post about your power up) If, however, you're only just starting, you can power up as little as 50 Leo and still be in for a draw of smaller delegations.

Speaking of delegations - we are already extremely grateful for the amazing one for our community from @khaleelkazi which makes our regular curation of gardening threads possible.

We love being engaged with the broader LeoFinance and Hive community in general and participating in initiatives like lpud by @leogrowth is one amazing way to do so.

According to the last LPUD post, our starting balance was 383 LP:

And after powering up 157 Leo today, we currently have 540 of our very own LP stake:

The Leo counter goes back to 0 and another month of growing our curation account starts. Hoping to see many more #hivegarden tagged threads this month!

May your Leo Garden continue to be abundant, and I'll see you next month for LPUD!
