    Hi there!

    I know, it’s been ages since I’ve been on the forum.

    Life!! It has been a mad year or two, but I’ve still been wrestling with the super-sandy garden soil. We’ve had some successes, and quite a few failures. But I won’t stop trying!!

    Great to see some familiar names :yay::yay:

                  It's certainly nice to see you back!

                  A small FYI, cannabis likes growing in sandy soil.... :heehee:
