Thank you.  I have a question for you:  If I forget to check the box that says, “Notify me of follow-up replies via email,”  is there a way to go back after submitting a post to request notification?  Thanks again.

Thank you, Greg, for your warm welcome and reply!  I was able to return and click on the notify button in one of my reply posts when it offered me the “Edit” option.  That was so easy.  All the others just offer me “Reply” and either “Quote” or “Thanks” or both, but no “Edit.”  If I press “Reply,” it wants me to leave an entire message and not simply click on the notify button,
Is that what you are referring to?  (Sorry if I appear to be the densest of your newcomers — hopefully more plant intuitive than tech savvy!)

Hi Jenny, and thanks so very much for reaching out!  To suddenly find myself not only enrolled in this course but surrounded by friends coming alongside in this journey is a blessing beyond words.  Not only do our plants struggle, but we put in Herculean efforts to counter this inhospitable environment in our attempts to grow and nurture.  It takes so much fortitude to experiment and figure out what works and what doesn’t.  Over the past few years I’ve tried singlehandedly to farm a granite bed but wound up feeding a veritable smorgasbord to the rats, mice, squirrels, and now deer since my border collie is no longer here. But when things actually work, O joy!  O rapture!  O bliss!  I’m all too ready to discover what actually DOES thrive here without so much additional sweat and tears and learn how to let it become that blessing.  This summer I got started on the cactus fruit for the first time, which I just posted about under the topic of Rabbitbrush, Russian Sage, and Prickly Pear. I wonder if there’s a way to notify or tag each other when we post in other places.     (P.S. your smile is gorgeous!)
