The condition of my windowsill garden

It's a difficult summer for a person like me who has a windowsill garden in Shanghai.

I watered my plants every day and sprayed their leaves twice a day, but they are still in bad condition and barely live. The weather has been too hot for a too long time.

This kind of situation made me want a house with a yard. If so, I could put my plants in a better spot, and maybe they would have a better life.


对于像我这样在上海有个窗台花园的人来说,今年夏天很是艰难。

我每天给我的植物们浇水,每天给它们的叶子喷两次水,但它们的状况仍然很差,勉强活着。天气太热得太久了。

这个情况让我想过要一个带院子的房子。这样的话,我就可以把我的植物放在一个更好的地方,也许他们会活得更好。

Since you do it regularly, it should be in the present tense.

It's hot here too. Rain hasn't been falling here, unlike last year.

It sounds more natural to say things that you have been doing in the present tense here, as you are still doing those activities. Otherwise, it sounds like you've finished the actions completely and that you're no longer taking care of your plants.
