As you are a young apprentice top dressing big pot plant with pure fresh Bull muck which stunk the ammonia in the muck made my hands lily white - then also on a very hot day turning a manure heaped with bull muck and straw -taking my t shirt off and being bitten by a horse fly whilst doing it ouch!!
Then another apprentice job in greenhouses was to balance on the heating pipes on a plank and hand weed under the benches took weeks - Foremans response don't moan I did that when I was an apprentice.
The greenhouse shading in the old days was like an emulsion paint so it had to be scraped of with a 3x2 piece of glass took ages! water would not touch it!
Happy days Not!
got a top Nursery superintendent's job by moving around qualified in my career though!
so was it worth it Yes!
