Can you promote in r/garden?

A subreddit dedicated to real gardening

The short answer

Be helpful first: answer the lead's question, optionally mention your product/company briefly and transparently only if directly relevant, and avoid hard-sell language or links unless a mod or community norm permits it.

What works here

  • provide practical, non-promotional gardening advice
  • share personal experience and photos
  • optionally disclose affiliation if referencing your tool/service

What gets posts removed

  • posting blatant advertisements or solicitation
  • dropping uncontextualized product links or repeated self-promotion
  • assuming vendor acceptance without checking mods
