How times change!

-

 I've had fridges that looked like this before in my underworld days and it certainly wasn't apple tree cuttings - How times change!!


I do sleep in my bed better at night though with apple tree cuttings and I'm not jumping up to grab a baseball bat or machete every time you hear something outside. I was born into that underworld life, I became a product of my surroundings.

That life is no good though, its all one negative action following the other. Like someone pouring petrol on a fire continuously, we live and burn with rage!


There is no inner peace or contentment in that life. Still today I suffer from the effects of living like I did. I realised something there a while back why I still get so uptight at times about people being late or if I'm running late also.

I still get these feelings like I'm ready to blow at times!

And its because of all my dodgy dealings in the past. Way too many times has lateness in my life meant that someone has got scooped by the police or even worse.


Anyhow today I have been very fortunate to receive the teachings of the Buddha and turn my life around. What money we earn in them negative emotional states in the underworld is bad luck. When we surround ourselves with the energies that exist in that world we become infected and polluted. There is no getting out!


Karma will ripen and we will suffer. Its only a matter of time. A guy who robbed me for over 100k right at the end of my underworld endeavours I've come to realise that he was a guardian angel in disguise. At that time it was all or nothing for me and after 15 years of drink and drug abuse I was a mess. If I had of made that 100k I would be dead. The money would have carried on funding my poisonous lifestyle. This guy who was my friend and underworld partner at the time did me the biggest favour ever by robbing me.

I went into a state of darkness for a couple of years hiding in the back bedroom where I grew up with nothing until one day I was guided to Jampa Ling drunk and seen this monk waiting on me. That was the light for me, my negative karma had ripened and passed and I was given the tools to set things right. Karma means action, action creates reactions. We can never trick the Dharma, even our thoughts are creating Karma. When we even think of doing bad on someone its the same Karmic reaction as doing it.


Anyhow guys, in my fridge is load of old Irish variety apple tree scions/cuttings. I have rootstock ordered to grow these into apple trees. I take these round about this time of year and store in freezer bags with some small droplets of water added into the bags. I always make sure humidity is forming on the bag and open once in a while to check for any mould.

Grafting begins last 2 weeks of March first 2 weeks of April when the sap is rising. I'll be doing some videos on this for you guys to see come the time.


These days I'm all about creating good karma, analysing my own thoughts and intentions. I believe everything the Buddha says. His teachings for me are not just blind beliefs. They are forged from experience. 


If you'd like to support my work please do on the link below. It's only because I live a very austere lifestyle in my cabin drink and drug free that I have the time to do what I do. Your support means so much to me.

  A bit about me and how I became the phantom planter. I grew up in a Loyalist housing estate in Belfast, my father a Protestant and my mother was a Catholic from Ardyone, that had big complications here in Northern Ireland but I always knew I was a mongrel, a bit different! My dad was a delboy ( a buyer and seller of everything and anything) and from I could walk he had me a mini Delboy, from selling round the doors to off loading lorry loads of bootlegged cigs and booze straight in from Andorra, he had me street trading and playing part in his delboy tricks to help him sell his dodgy goods! I learned fast how to make money and school for me was my business, I had more money than the teachers, my dad would have stocked my bag up at lunchtimes for me with more of his dodgy goods, perfume, tobacco, clothing, all sorts I had in my bag, even sold some of my goods to the teachers! When I left school I was financially embarrassed for a small time, 1000 pupils to me was 1000 people with ...

 Good morning guys, most of you have probably seen my disheartened post the other day about me feeling a bit down on the financial side of things to do with the Phantom Planter. I've been trying for so long now to earn a decent living from it to help fuel my passion in what I'm doing. There's nothing more I'd love to be doing than going round phantom planting fruit trees and maintaining them, getting my free fruit tree map app all updated and promoting it also so everyone can have free fresh fruit. I also have plans for my Oak Grove museum and several other community and nature projects I had on my mind. But for the past while I've been spending hours every day doing all sorts of work to do with the phantom planter and It's always been in the back of my head at times, what am I doing?? As most of you know I've been donated a small plot of land and I'm intending on building a cabin on it and I need money to do this. I'm living in a rotted rented cabin...

 From I've been saying that I'm on Onlyfans I've a lost a few hundred followers on my main phantom planter Facebook page. And the posts on it have a attracted many negative comments from people who seemed to know alot about life story and phantom planting antics, these are people that have been reading all my previous posts in depth and have never commented once before as I do read nearly all the comments and show my gratitude and if its a negative comment I just give them a hug. But it just shows you how many people are reading your posts with venom, just waiting until you put a foot wrong then give off. Then they announce they're departure commenting "Unfollowed." Look guys I'm really not going to lose any sleep over it and its certainly not going to distract me from my mission and soul purpose. I very rarely give my attention to negative comments on here or even get in a debate with. I would much rather give my energy and attention to people who are sup...
