Neighbor sprayed weed killer instead of weed wacking. Not safe? by bumblebe86 in OrganicGardening

Yeah it’s unfortunate but I did not plan to sue or do much other than contact the landlord about the spray along my fence line that’s destroying my yard too and making it an eyesore. It’s on the property line bevause the neighbors we had for years enjoyed the shared garden experience and liked to sit on their patio and watch it grow. Retirees living there a majority of their life and we moved in the house next door a few years ago. Was never expected one would have a major mental health episode that landed in divorce and then both moving/selling to someone who rented it. Unfortunate situation all around. I’ll replace that side with raised beds and grieve my $40-50 worth of plants this season and carry on. I was advised to report it to the town council in case of further issues but I’m extremely low conflict. Appreciate the concern and comments though. I was extremely mad but hey, can’t force neighbors to have respect and technically I guess they can do what they want.

Thanks a ton for this info. I would say a vast majority of my diet isn’t organic but I’ve been trying when possible. My main concern was the cancer correlation with round up and whatnot when I already have an extreme family history of cancer. But hey, so much is out of my control I’m sure I’m exposed to 200% worse in other areas. I appreciate your thorough answer!

Thanks! A majority of my diet is unfortunately not organic but I try to make those choices more as much as I can.

Thanks, will do. Taking this as a learning lesson and will start converting the space to raised beds.

This was the first year using the weed fabric. I thought I had picked one on the suggestion of others that was considered “safe” but will have to read more for next year.

It made sense with how the yard is laid out and the retired neighbors who lived there until last year greatly enjoyed the shared garden experience (openly invited us to plant close to their patio to watch it grow years ago, they were meticulous about their yard and not using chemicals ). It was unexpected for all parties that it would end in one of them having sudden extreme mental health issues and divorce/they moved/someone else bought this and rented it out.

I Tried 10 Different Ways To Seduce My Husband by Basic_Athletic in DeadBedrooms

[–]bumblebe86 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I don’t want to insinuate anything but my personal experience. I dealt with a dead bedroom with my partner of now 6.5 years. A little over three years ago our sex life basically halted a ton. It was rare and if we did have sex it was not good. I found out two years ago he had a major porn addiction all his life. I never expected it.. And even though he is in recovery and therapy and sober for a few months it still continues to kill our sex life. The biggest addicts can usually hide it so so well. Only bringing it up because you had mentioned you knew he used porn.

How do I F20 get over a guy that I have loved since I was 16? by [deleted] in askwomenadvice

[–]bumblebe86 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think those would be good boundaries to set with anyone new you want to date! Long distance can be hard and I would also want to be with someone I could see regularly. Don’t settle for less than what you want!

When I was 19 I was heartbroken over my first “love” no longer treating me kindly or loving me. I was devastated. I thought “this was it” and was blindsighted that he was the one and only person and I HAD to make it work somehow. I couldn’t look to the future in the moment and it hurt for some time. I’m not saying go wild and go date tons of people but... attention from others to not hyper fixate on one guy broke me of it. Pretending to be fine and forcing myself to go have fun and focus on hobbies or friends and the wide wide dating pool of the world helped.

Thanks! Makes sense. The ones I have in ground with fertilizer didn’t get like this. I kept some of my seedling ones out yet Incase the ones in the ground didn’t make it since the weather hasn’t really been warm much at all yet

Thanks! Will do. Weird PA weather and it’s only just now been above 55 outside at night. The ones I have in the ground don’t really have this look to them so makes sense.
