Sorry to hear @Smooth .
If you need cuts when you’re back up and running , let me know.
When tragedy happens around here, my daughter sideways says" it’s an adventure " but one I’m sure you can do without.

I may or may not have been fucked by Beryl. I was heading out of town anyways, left on June 27th… was supposed to get back into town two days ago so I at least prepared my grow to last that long. Miraculously, with however many millions of people out of power, ours appears to still be working as I can access our security camera. My neighbor said it flickered a few times but has been reliable… the issue is if it flickered during lights out, a 4 hour window, my timer run off a smart plug will get stuck in the off position and the power might as well be off… the other issue is that if we can’t go back for a few more days, I’m pretty sure the 10 gallons of water I left in the reservoir will be depleted. Such a shit feeling lol, but hey, what can you do? The good news is I went to Vegas and won a little WSOP satellite and just pocketed the money so now I’ll buy the rosin press and bubble bags I’ve been eyeing with free money

Yo Smooth my friend… sorry to hear about this, living where I do I so understand.
Thinking of leaving Florida for this very concern, each year it’s getting worse .
Do you have a generator or would that even help if gas stations aren’t up with power… grrr.
When you get recovered and back at it, you need any seeds hit me up and I’ll get something otw… until then, prayers your way bro

Thanks guys. I have a generator running and able to keep fairly cool. Just so hot and humid outside. I still have another couple days of chainsaw work. Was lucky to find a new chain for the chainsaw. Not something a 66 year old guy enjoys for sure. Could always be worse. Glad I had no structural damage. The rest will just take time, sweat and maybe a tear or two. Thanks to all who have reached out to me.

That is an absolute heartbreaker! I don’t have anything too special but if you gotta rebuild on seed collection I’d be happy to send some free ones your way.
