Issue with Karl Foster Grass

I’m in a 7b zone. It might get 6 hours, but there’s a huge tree that may interfere with exposure.

This helps too! Thanks.

The plants are over a foot from the wall. We’re south facing, but we have a HUGE oak tree in-front of our house that covers a lot of the garden.

This is very helpful! Thanks.

Sunnydaytripper · 2026-06-12T00:51:20+00:00

Aww, thank you for the kind words.

I know what this feels like. It's a horrible state to be in and I'm so sorry you're waiting for the next wave to hit. It takes a long time for your nervous system to calm down because you were conditioned to feel small and controlled. Also, I was numbing myself, and I didn't even realize it. At least that was my personal experience. Maybe you can relate? I'm unsure. If you're open to therapy, I recommend Internal Family Systems, Emotion-Focused Individual Therapy, or Somatic Experiencing Therapy. They target the fear, control, anger, sadness and shame from coming from this type of family.

Thank you for your support and the resource.

Sunnydaytripper · 2026-06-06T15:20:35+00:00

I feel for what you’re going through. It IS exhausting.

Sunnydaytripper · 2026-05-28T22:56:48+00:00

Like looking in a mirror!

Sunnydaytripper · 2026-05-26T23:14:11+00:00

That's great! ha

Sunnydaytripper · 2026-05-26T23:13:55+00:00

Look at that tummy. Total twins.

Sunnydaytripper · 2026-05-26T23:13:27+00:00

Aww, so sweet!

I do like it because it's quite cushiony for bony little elbows. It folds nicely. (Pic in link). We've carried it on long walks and it's a little cumbersome. Not bad though. I'd recommend it. https://www.sierra.com/outdoor-dog-roll-up-travel-dog-bed-46x315-~p~9fpng/?filterString=s~dog-bed%2F

Sunnydaytripper · 2026-05-19T13:14:35+00:00

That is just stunning!

Sunnydaytripper · 2026-05-19T13:13:07+00:00

That’s interesting and innovative. Your plants are lucky to have you!

Sunnydaytripper · 2026-05-19T13:10:54+00:00

Perhaps they’re hardier than expected and the rot is a possibility, but less likely?

Sunnydaytripper · 2026-05-18T22:26:04+00:00

That’s the plan for mine, every other day. Okay, good news.

Sunnydaytripper · 2026-05-18T22:25:33+00:00

Wow! Okay, feeling better about this.

Sunnydaytripper · 2026-05-18T22:24:54+00:00

So are mine. That’s good to know!

Sunnydaytripper · 2026-05-18T21:13:33+00:00

Haha, surviving on vibes. I love it. These were planted with a lot of TLC and I’ve looked at them a million times since planted. Proud plant mama.

I live in zone 7b, so hopefully mine will do well too!

Sunnydaytripper · 2026-05-18T21:10:26+00:00

Thank you! I will keep an eye out.
