cheers matey - hope you and yours are keeping well :smokebuds:
Ive still been a bit slack on here of late - eyes playing up heaps - double vision (more than double but thats the best basic description) seems to be getting a lot worse and the flashing lights etc have been in fairly full effect (not as bad as they can get though) which is crap in itself but also leads to lotsa headaches, stress etc etc - arrghh! so been limited in computer time. Crap thing is that with my eye pressure currently at about as low as its ever been thanks to my eye drops and my good friend canna and with the double vision meant to have been fixed by the multiple surgeries I had a while ago but obviously not fixed there is possibly more underlying undiagnosed probs or current probs combining to create super symptoms. Im not sure but is possibley due to since spring is here with a shinier sun and since I have an enlarged iris, no lenses to filter, glaucoma etc etc which heightens glare and a super thin retina is that the sun is doing damage to the eye as it streams in. I have a super thin retina which has a penchant for heamoraging etc so Ive got my fingers crossed at the moment Im not getting more retina problems due to the sun coming in as a heamoraging retina (macular edema or whatever its official title is) is no fun whatsoever (is an absolute undescribable mindfuck where the world not only seems upside down but literally looks upside down due to the retina not processing information properly amongst many other crazy symptoms) and having had a few previously I dont think my eye can take too many more of them and still even remotely function... anyway - we will wait and see or not see as the case may be...
Yep, am lucky can now do a little outdoor work out the back - cant do guerilla grows since cant drive etc and obviously cant have them out in the middle of the yard in the best sun nor have as many as Id like (would love a house with a little land out of town!) but definetely like having the outdoors - seemingly simpler though I'll prob change that view when "nature" stricks with force. Will try my best to fit as many small plants in as I can - no real worry from neighbours as should be fine on all sides, just mainly a matter of not wanting to have them too obvious for the kids/teens of my family when they visit but would be nice to get a good supply from the outdoors over summer so can cut back on electricity inside.
A question for you folks - ive looked through here and there in regards to long term storage of canna but with the real threat that sooner rather than later and it is a when not if at this stage, I go totally blind Im keen to know of any longterm storage ideas that have worked or may work. When I go totally blind (or even a little worse than I am now) I just won't be able to grow nor arrange purchase and I won't expect anyone to break the law for me and grow but obviously Im gonna need something to help me laugh, sleep and generally find reasons to keep finding reasons so I am thinking I will have to try and organise myself to have a decent amount stashed for that purpose. So yeah any though tips on long term storage wld be appreciated. I gather freezing is best not done and well stored in jars in a cool, dry, dark place can store decently for upto about 2 years(??) but Id be very interested in any other ways to store for longer...

Im gonna have to make sure I have a good rotation - not just to make sure I have enough meds on hand but just from a "gerdeners" perspective is nice having plants in flower - always a pleasure to peek at and smell!!
