Depression is everywhere Ryan
Secret is trying not to get too down. it stops you living your life
Why not just go into your local garden centre and see if you could spend couple of hours there occasionally. Nothing to lose by just going in and asking to see the manager
Have you nought about selling some plants you've grown yourself? Do you have space for that?
You have some good ideas there on your blog Ryan.
Mind you, you are already learning about plants on this forum, aren't you ?

What ideas do you have already?
I'm not expert enough in this to give advice but I will read with interest
How old are you Ryan? Or do you mind me asking you that?
Have you thought about offering to help out in a nursery or garden centre at weekends?

Obelisk,
In summer a nearby river bank is flanked by miscanthus grasses for about a mile. The sound is magical.......whispering music.

Hey david K
I'm sure I speak for most everyone when I say I value brumbull's huge contribution to this forum. He has opened up some great new threads and encouraged the rest of us to think a bit more laterally. Not forgetting the knowledgeable advice he gives....did I say that right dad?...ha ha
just as with texts on mobile phones, messages here can be miss-interpreted or misread but criticism should not be personal. I'm the first to engage in agitating threads but only because I enjoy the (childlike) mischief!
