Why it's so hard to terminate a plant?

[ahoragi]

I've been a big fan of growing plants indoors and I have quite a number of "friends" maturing in my complex right now. My buddy needed me to resurrect his trouble-some plants so I invited them into my place. I instantly was attacked by gnats so I changed the soil in freezing outdoor weather and it seems that the gnats have survived the soil transfer and started spreading the orange-poke-a-dot leaf disease to my other plants. I told my buddy of the situation and he ok'd the termination of his plants but I could not do it. I had to ask my gf to terminate them by placing them outside between two big bushes in front of my apartment. They are now out there in temps that will kill them. I feel terrible about it and I cannot shake the feeling.


I never felt this way before and I blame Avatar. I guess it's a good/bad type of thing but it sucks having to kill a living plant because of a bug. Ehhh.......
