Andromedian Posted June 11, 2017 Author Share Posted June 11, 2017 Sorry for the absence people.....along with Zugs little mishap....i have been trying to deal with a few demons of my own.. Haven't been able to get out for 4 weeks now.... I decided to go visit TPPlot, knowing full well, the plants in the box would be dead.....mostly red purps and to be fair the seeds looks well fucked even before the off...half of them, didn't even show, and the others looked like they died about 2 weeks ago, at 1 inch tall. We had planted out a few others and caged them up, a couple of white widow auto's in the mix too.... Most were doing really well....a couple looked like they were topped by something early on and another which was missing in action.... 21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zug Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 Nice one mate, we'll done for finally beating the anxiety and getting your ass to our plots while I'm in plaster haha! Well. .one of them at least. I reckon there are 20 ww auto in that box at tfz ready to go out and by the look of the one at this plot, they should be good. All looking good here then mate, must have been nice on arrival to see them out of the cages. Looking forward to getting back out but a while to go yet... 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm fairly sure i wouldnt be able to do what i do if i did all of the above. listening to really loud 90s hip hop while driving normally sorts me out talking about storage boxes , heres what I've done with one recently, stretched a mesh over the top, maximum ventilation for hot weather but still bug proof.

tigseyjnr Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Aw man, really feel for you. Anxiety can be properly crippling!! Something I only recognised in myself a few years ago. Its the the irrationality behind it that makes it so hard to deal with. Anyway.. Wishing you both all the best, and looking forward to seeing you both back on form soon.

Irishgirl Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 @Andromedian, plants look great, really nice & healthy, it doing well . Anxiety is a curse, can be hard to deal with. I have it myself & medicated for it. Don't like meds but with a heart condition & severe anxiety I need it. I must admit, it does help me, a lot. The worst thing you can do with anxiety is best yourself up about things as they say here in Ireland "Its da fear of God that's in you" that doesn't help so for me it's a matter of changing my way of thinking, I'm ok, it's ok I keep telling myself. @zug speedy recovery mate, hope it out & about real soon but don't push yourself, you don't want to cause further damage . @Amarillo slim, I love the idea of the mesh cover. Just wondering tho, if there was heavy or a lot of rain would some of the rain water lodge in the containers & then the pots are sitting in this? I'm sure you have drilled enough holes for this so I guess I have answered my own question . 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harvestreaper Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 interesting posts on anxiety i used to suffer panic attaks and like andro it would baffle me as i feared nothing in my consouis mind i could not work out what i was afraid of but as irishgirl pointed out like the irish i concluded it was fear of god in my case,, i had to just about rule everything else first tho ,,ive not had panic attaks for years an i know i wont again strange as it sounds ,its all simply fear you just have to understand what your afraid of you might be offending yourself somehow in such a way as doing things you belive are realy wrong either conscoiusly or sub consuisly as long as you dont give up you will overcome nice plants btw 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
