Trala’s Tent

So I’ve dropped a Laughing Buddha. Fingers crossed she pops. At this stage, in my heart I think she has a 24% success rate. I’ve totally lost confidence and I’m not even joking.
Just a few days now. How many days does it usually take for the cotyledons to show when you plant directly in the solo cup? Looking forward to watching Laughing Buddha grow. Those big plants are stunners.

Omg I don’t know what a cotyledon even is lol! So I’m not sure.

I just hope she pops.

Just started a night shift an hour ago. It’s a full moon, what could go wrong?!
 
So I’ve planted another seed since my Strawberry Lemonade was a failure.

It’s crazy how one failure can make you lose confidence, or I should say me. Right at this second I feel like I’ll never be successful striking another seed. I’m worried I’ve ruined them all by storing them in the fridge, despite the fact this storing method was suggested by top shelf growers. I’m worried I’ve buried the seed too deep, despite the fact it’s the same depth I bury all my seeds, I’m worried it’s too cold for the seed to strike, despite the fact it’s a 25 degree humid day. I’m expanding on worried by adding worry. I’m worried I going to ruin these beautiful flowering girls despite them being the best plants I have grown. I’m worried I’m going to run out of weed for my spawn, despite the fact I have jars full. I’m just worrisome bipolar bear today! It’s exhausting!

I need some motherfucking zen man!

I hope my next grow adventure stars this little one.

Just take a deep breath and remember shit happens that Buddha will pop!
 
Cheeky day off to myself and I have just finished water raking my pool.

These girls remind me of Kardashians. They are begging to be photographed.

I hope so.

In my heart I feel like I’m never going to be able to grow another seed again!

I’m always all about the trama ;)

LOLLING!

I really do though. I am driving myself mad. Im convinced I buried it too deep. Just wait and see I guess. I only planted her on Wednesday. Still time I guess.

My wife showed me this neat little tool said you just stick it in and it’s the perfect depth for the seed. I haven’t tried it yet but I’ll let you know if it works. She’s got tons of time and so do you just relax and she’ll pop when you least expect it.
 
I hope by the time you next visit your journal the seedling has sprouted. I get the anxiety. It usually takes me about 48 hours to see a tap root in paper towel, and then I plant in the peat puck a pencil end deep and it takes another 2 days to surface, so give it time and hopefully you'll have your zen back and can miyagi your Laughing Buddha to conclusion. It's a week of lost time if it doesn't sprout so c'mon baby buddha :cheer:
 
Omg I’m so bummed. I got a sad story and I’m gonna offload.

So as many of you know, I’m from welfare. It was only thanks to some good choices and luck that I was able to meet the people I needed to get better, have opportunities and educate myself, but I know my roots and I have empathy for a welfare bum ,coz what’s that saying “but there through the grace of god go I”? Or something like that. Basically it’s a fancy way of saying that could be you, meaning me.

So when I bought this house, not I, my partner in crime and I bought this house we went to the local Bowlsie for dinner. Rough bowlsie really. The sort of place you can still smoke in. And it’s full of yobbos with bad tats and missing teeth. So we buy some raffle tickets, and we don’t win, we play barefoot bowls with the locals and had the best night. As we were leaving this very obvious bum, missing teeth bad tats an all gives us the meat tray he won and says “welcome to the neighbourhood”. It fucking touched my heart coz I could see that sausage and pork chop tray would have saved him food money.

From then on every time we went to the bowlsie I would anonymously put $20 on his tab. And over the next 3 years I got to know him. He lived 2km into my daily circuit walk right beside the bowlsie. He got a carers pension for taking care of his dad (terrible care lol) and I was shocked he was only 55. Never worked, small time dealer, semi affiliated with the local bikie club and an alco. But there through the grace of god go I, and I just loved him from afar. So when I started growing, I told him my son the grower wanted a tester, and I would drop a jar in his mailbox, and he would put it back out when he finished. No charge or anything of course. He always called me his weed fairy, and tbh I don’t think he ever knew my name coz he just always called me “darlin”. So this went on for about 18 months. It made me feel so good to make him feel good. Then suddenly the owners of the dump he was renting wanted him and his dad out. And I lost touch from there. I mean we were never friends. He was just someone I could have been.

Well today as I’m walking out of my ward, he is being wheeled in. He has lung cancer, which has metastasised and he’s basically fucked. I went back to my ward and sat with him for an hour, and while it’s not my circus or my monkey for that matter, I just feel so super sad for him.

I just want to add, if you have a cough, that is prolonged or feels different, or shoulder/back pain that isn’t muscle related, or you have lost weight without trying don’t fucking sit on it. Go to your doctor. Get it checked. Many lung cancers are treatable if caught early.

So tonight when you blaze up, have one for Greg coz he’s a fucking legend. Xo
