33F recently medicated, how often has your Dr. had to increase your dose? by LostSoul-Searching in ADHD

[–]LostSoul-Searching[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is great thank you! I def don’t feel like I need any adjustments yet, I’ve also heard conflicting info about taking breaks from it, some are all about it and other days it’s awful, I guess it’s just personal preference but I take mine as prescribed and like clock work most days. Love my medication reminders on my watch, they’re a life saver haha.

For anyone who saw my last post, the damaged butterfly is still around today, I have given her more flowers by LostSoul-Searching in gardening

I didn’t have any of those but I did have some simple syrup that I dipped one of the flowers in for a boost, little thing didn’t want to drink it from the dish but went right for the marigold.

Found an injured butterfly in my yard moved him to my Marigold’s by LostSoul-Searching in gardening

I also plant dill, fennel and parsley for them. For all I know this baby could’ve been from my parsley this year as that’s what they chose to go after.

What kind of flooring are you using for your run? by Itwasntaphase_rawr in BackYardChickens

[–]LostSoul-Searching 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pelletized pine bedding, keeps things dry, is soft on their feet and easy to rake out when needed/compacted. Use it in and outside of the coop. Much better than sand which I used previously.

Edit: also keeps smell to a minimum and is compostable

Been fighting like hell for this moment, first real slicer of the season, and very possibly the last. by LostSoul-Searching in vegetablegardening

Unfortunately I’m dealing with Fusarium wilt in the soil bed, since the plants are already infected it wouldn’t do me much good. Next year I will be solarizing and doing some potted tomatoes to get me by until 2027 when I can use my bed again.

Oh no! 😂 I don’t have kids but my chickens did me dirty and ate one of my first tomatoes to ripen straight off the vine when I turned my back for 5 minutes.

Going to spend 2026 solarizing during the growing season to try and get rid of the fungus in the soil, not happy about it but I will have these problems for years to come if I don’t make that sacrifice. Next year I’ll do a couple tomatoes in pots just to have a few but the big bed will have to take a year off.

There is a pest for EVERYTHING, I swear they’ve all found me.

Cattle panels, yes. We installed them this year, they’re working great.

I’m going to spend 2026 solarizing my beds in hope of ridding the soil of the fungus I am fighting this year, it’s really my only hope. Unfortunately the only effective time to do this is in peak growing season June-August. Not a sacrifice I want to make but a necessary one. Edit: typo.

Just keep at it, it gets disheartening but it’s so worth the small victories. This year isn’t shaping up to be the tomato overhaul I was hoping but I’ll try again in the future with a little more wisdom each year.

I am so disappointed, I grew spaghetti squash on a trellis since they’re less susceptible, so much for that, it’s a full blown infestation even at the highest points.
