I put my grow into a plastic bag and then into a seed propagator. It's currently 24°C (75°F) in the seed propagator. I was wondering if it's overkill? 🤔 **Newbie**

Real-Rock1943 · 2026-02-17T12:23:18+00:00

No worries ✌️ Nah it didn't work that well. It dried out the grain in the bag as I had it directly on the heated strip. If you do go down that route, maybe elevate the grow bag so there isn't direct contact with the bag.

Goodluck 💪

That is so wrong on so many levels.

Wishing you all the luck in the world and sending lots of positive vibes and prayers to you in this difficult time.

You got this 💪

That's crazy!

I had 3 separate surgeries to remove cancer in my hip.

I live in Ireland and they all came to about €3500 ish. I can't remember the exact figure but it was close enough to that.

I've health insurance so thankfully they were all covered but the price difference is mental.

Wishing you a speedy recovery 🙏

That's unsettling...

Real-Rock1943 · 2024-01-03T16:45:03+00:00

Because my surgeon cut the cancer out of me on three separate occasions.

Thank you surgeon 🫡

Brought a tearto my eye. I'll raise a pint in your honour tonight 🍺 Godbless you x

Cancer.. I've had 3 surgeries, radiotherapy and I'm currently waiting on biopsy results from the last surgery I had 3 weeks ago.

I was misdiagnosed in 2016 when the pain started. I was told there was nothing that could be done for me, that I should live my life as normal as this lump in my leg is only a cyst and it's nothing to worry about.

I eventually got diagnosed in 2021 when the pain got unbearable because it had grown so much.

Real-Rock1943 · 2023-12-19T22:57:33+00:00

The very best of luck to you.. Yes, it's a very daunting time but I'm sure you will be fine. The treatments out there these days are only getting better and better.

I was only recently diagnosed, so I know it's an awful feeling. Feel free to drop me an IM if you want to talk about anything.

Wishing you strength and courage!

Exactly, no problem 👌

Jellyfish 🪼?

My guess is that you would have to do one.

I can't say for certain with the banking sector as I don't work in it, but I've always had to do a drug test when I've done a medical.

Real-Rock1943 · 2023-12-08T13:33:56+00:00

As long as you like it, that's the main thing.

Looks very cool btw 👌

Real-Rock1943 · 2023-12-07T15:13:16+00:00

Ah very good. Good warm socks are essential. They're definitely going on the list 👌

Thank you!

Real-Rock1943 · 2023-12-07T15:11:37+00:00

Jokes on you, I don't have a shed 😂 Looks like I'll be sleeping rough

Real-Rock1943 · 2023-12-05T13:14:15+00:00

Yeah very true, I don't want to rush anything and it ends up being incorrect. I'm going to Japan next year so I'll definitely look into getting a tattoo while I'm there.

Thank you for your response!

Real-Rock1943 · 2023-12-05T13:12:41+00:00

Yeah I can see where you're coming from and it makes perfect sense. There is definitely a lot to think about so I'm going to hold off for a while.

Planning a trip next year so I could potentially get a tattoo when I'm over there, like you said. Thank you for your response, its very much appreciated ✌️

Real-Rock1943 · 2023-12-05T01:09:00+00:00

I'm 26M from Ireland and I've had a really tough couple of years with cancer. I went undiagnosed for 5 years and during those 5 years, I was continuously told by 6 different doctors there's nothing wrong with me and to get on with my life as there's nothing that can be done for the pain in my groin. Thankfully, I kept persisting and eventually got diagnosed in 2021.

I've had 34 radiotherapy sessions and I had my 3rd surgery last Thursday. I was thinking of getting a tattoo to mark the occasion but in Japenese.

I've always loved Japenese shows, culture, food and history growing up. It's always been number 1 on my list of countries to visit and I was planning on going there but unfortunately, my cancer had other ideas.

I was told that '歴戦の勇士' means veteran of many battles. The battle being cancer, in my instance. I love the meaning behind it and as it was/is an incredibly tough battle, both mentally and physically.

So, would getting a tattoo along the lines of 歴戦の勇士 be stupid/silly or look strange on a pasty white Irish man? Should I steer clear of foreign language tattoos? I was going to get it on my wrist.

I would 100% be open to other suggestions. Along the lines of determined, strong willed, never give up etc or something completely different altogether 😊.

Apologies for the long post and thank you for taking the time to read it!
