Understand AI use at MyPTSD: all AI use is explained in our AI help page. AI use is by choice here. It exists if you want it, but does nothing unless you choose to use it.
Some of the mental health groups in the UK do this, I know there is one in Plymouth. I've seen bits on TV about the difference it has made to people's lives (including vets).
Me though, I just don't seem to be green fingered. Wish I was.
There are many plants that I have grown exceeding large and beautiful. However, some did not resonate with me, the lighting was not correct, the draft or area and I couldnot coach them no matter what time period. Therefore, if you really 'wish' to...consider picking an easy starter plant (that you have not tried before), one conducive to your region. Perhaps a relative that you loved grew this one you may consider and your heart will warm. Use the internet to research it and try again. The reason is multifold, renewing as well as aligns your energy to nature. So the plant must be special to you in some manner.
Should you decide down the road to do this adventure, let me know if you have questions and if I am familiar with the plant...I will grandmother you and your plant.:clown: The bond can be awesome adding serenity as well as pride to your accomplishment, a simple pleasure.:hug:
