I hate not sleeping. I think I hate that I can't turn my mind off even more. :wall:
This is the story of my life... I've dealt with insomnia since I was knee hi to a duck. I am in no way shape or form a fan of pills and chemical medicine but I recently caved and took pills for mild insomnia in an attempt to work the next morning, let's just say restless mind 1, insomnia pills 0. Was able to make some cash, just extremely tired while doing so...

A burning mind from a wounded heart will keep the best of us up at night. My sleeping habits usually have me up these late hours and you're always welcome in my PM box man.

Sorry to hear that gandalf. In these times the best thing is to make yourself happy by doing the things you live and keep your family close. Smiles will be key here.

So I need help guys on what strains yield a lot with organics. I want to be able to put stuff back and not smoke it all lol I go though 1-2 oz a week he'll maybe more. Right now I'm working with 2200 watts , 1600 hps/600 mh. I have a footprint of 6 ft width and 12 ft length, 7 ft height. I want to jam pack this area as efficient as possible and get a large quantity so I can get legal lol then buy a ton of equipment and build a kick as growroom.

Gandalf your always welcome to come my way. We could meet up with red and go hit up some guy bar dressed in clown suits tripping on acid.

Ambien, melatonin, klonopin, nestle up in worm bin, alcohol, combine anti-depressants/anxiety meds with NyQuil, Blueberry, good porn helps too. Sounds like you're heading down that spiral into the dark place. That place is hard to get out of. Stay strong and keep talking to us bro.

Thanks Red. I am trying not to be that much a freak. Hang with me boys. I am fighting as hard as I can. I don't want to go near that spiral. :leaf:

My bro went through such a period, during his break-up. He slept with
a fan pointed at his face for a few months. It helped him get to sleep.

A white noise generator will do the same and will not give you a chill. :0)

Keep the shiny side up!

Ooooh yeah that SUCKS. Not much you can do about that one. I can tell you what was the most pain free solutions I have found so far. These work for me personally, not suggesting they are fix-its for everybody.

1- Study. Cramming new info in kinda stills the other shit and makes the waking hours more bearable and sometimes they just fly by. If it is something hard (like learning LOS in 4 weeks and then doing a run and settling for perfection only is what I did) the interest keeps you going. After a few weeks, you are really friggin tired. You can look forward to 5-6 solid hours of blackness each night at that point.

2- Reading helps, but it has to be pretty boring. Like in research papers as opposed to a novel. Just keep pushing until you can't any longer, and then some. Most likely to wake up after like 3 hours with the papers in your hands or on your face.

3- When you can handle it, Indica herb. PURE Indica. A mild one is best, just to relax all the muscles and ease the stomach. Basically just enough to take care of the little physical discomforts you don't usually notice. Doesn't need to be strong, just remove a few of the elements causing your discomfort. A stressed mind causes stressed muscles.

4- Mostly just keeping busy with stuff is the ticket. The real key to dealing with insomnia is accepting that you are not going to be sleeping for a while. Trust me, this is step no 1. I know you want to sleep but you are not going to. This is the one that has helped me the most, is planning to USE the time I am going to be awake. Once you get used to it, you wonder how you lived with all that sleep before. Doesn't last forever though, soon enough you will be too tired and then you get a little disappointed that you don't have all those extra hours in the day any longer.

I hate to say it but that is not going to go away, the head that won't shut up. Not for a while brother. All you have to do, all you CAN do, is harness all that extra mental activity...

Thanks Hamish. I really can't tell you how much I appreciate it. It is nice to know that I have a crew of great guys that I can turn to. Your advice and help is invaluable. You guys are the best. Thank you all so much.

I might not have any experience to pull good advice from for you Gandalf, but I will say the way you've composed yourself through all this speaks volumes about your character. Even though I only know you online I can tell your one of the most upright and well structured men I know. Most guys would be bashing and demeaning. Just plain nasty, but you won't compromise your integrity and for that I salute you sir.

I got seeds coming. Bodhi's Appalachian thunderfuck, and the fuzz. I got advice from mad hambone on those strains and looking forward to putting this los to work. My worms should be here tomorrow and that will be fun too.

Should I mix mycos into my soil or just when I transplant my seedling to their 15 gallon?
Jesus H Steelheader! I hope your avatar isn't a selfie. Dude looks like he could eat an apple through a picket fence

And no, don't add the myco to your soil. Pour it directly in to the root zone when you transplant.

That sucks. I have been there buddy. I couldn't sleep, completely lost my appetite, and listened to every sad song that was on the radio dial. You will be in a funk for a while. I know you said you aren't smoking right now, but when you get back to that try a high cbd strain. I grew out a Critical Mass from cbd crew, and that shit would knock an elephant on it's ass. I fell asleep one night with my hand in a bag of trail mix, and a mouth full of it half chewed. Woke up a few hours later in disbelief. Might be worth a try.

I've been popping into that frostiest buds page the last week, looking for my chance to throw some impressive frost that way...

My frostiest pic to date, 4 weeks into 12/12

This batch is noticeably more developed than my last Heri, even though they are clones from the same plants. My week 4 looks like my week 6 last run, only with more frost... Its between 6 and 7 weeks where they really swell right?
