slow growing, the 9 new little ones are starting to show their 2nd set of leaves, prolly up 2"s. I have 3 that survived from the first plant and they are hanging on, hopefully.

looking for a caregiver for me, anyone in the area have a spot open? wife lost her job and we are tightening the belt and cutting everything in terms of bills, which means no more extra electricity for growing my girlie girls.

Bummer man, sorry to hear this news

Although its still cheaper to grow your own! Good luck with her employment search as well as your endeavor to find a med provider.

put cinnamon on the soil to try and help with the gnats, and they are gone. no more gnats against the screen, no more flying around, I saw that in a different website and it works for me. :-)

this is my phone camera. I found the sativa was having its problems due to lack of food, i wasnt feeding her enough, i doubled the ppm just for her and she has responded well, she is on the floor in the middle

this is my Nikon, the one on the far right is the fruity pheno, a stronger version. Back middle is the huge producer that will have 35+bud sites, mostly popcorn in the outer edges, but still good for butta. The left hand side is nothing but pure good bud.

they have had their problems in veg but with 2-3 more months of 12.12, i think they will grow up nice and fat.

i am feeding GH Bloom, Bud Candy and small amounts of GH Grow and Micro, green and red. CalMg is also added to most feedings.

Cinnamon has stopped the gnats, havent seen one in here in a few days and it hasnt affected the plants.

MH370 A different point of view. Pulau Langkawi 13,000 runway.

A lot of speculation about MH370. Terrorism, hijack, meteors. I cannot believe the analysis on CNN - almost disturbing. I tend to look for a more simple explanation of this event.

Loaded 777 departs midnight from Kuala to Beijing. Hot night. Heavy aircraft. About an hour out across the gulf towards Vietnam the plane goes dark meaning the transponder goes off and secondary radar tracking goes off.

Two days later we hear of reports that Malaysian military radar (which is a primary radar meaning the plane is being tracked by reflection rather than by transponder interrogation response) has tracked the plane on a southwesterly course back across the Malay Peninsula into the straits of Malacca.

When I heard this I immediately brought up Google Earth and I searched for airports in proximity to the track towards southwest.

The left turn is the key here. This was a very experienced senior Captain with 18,000 hours. Maybe some of the younger pilots interviewed on CNN didn't pick up on this left turn. We old pilots were always drilled to always know the closest airport of safe harbor while in cruise. Airports behind us, airports abeam us and airports ahead of us. Always in our head. Always. Because if something happens you don't want to be thinking what are you going to do - you already know what you are going to do. Instinctively when I saw that left turn with a direct heading I knew he was heading for an airport. Actually he was taking a direct route to Palau Langkawi a 13,000 foot strip with an approach over water at night with no obstacles. He did not turn back to Kuala Lampur because he knew he had 8,000 foot ridges to cross. He knew the terrain was friendlier towards Langkawi and also a shorter distance.

Take a look on Google Earth at this airport. This pilot did all the right things. He was confronted by some major event onboard that made him make that immediate turn back to the closest safe airport.
For me the loss of transponders and communications makes perfect sense if a fire. There was most likely a fire or electrical fire. In the case of fire the first response if to pull all the main busses and restore circuits one by one until you have isolated the bad one.

If they pulled the busses the plane indeed would go silent. It was probably a serious event and they simply were occupied with controlling the plane and trying to fight the fire. Aviate, Navigate and lastly communicate. There are two types of fires. Electrical might not be as fast and furious and there might or might not be incapacitating smoke. However there is the possibility given the timeline that perhaps there was an overheat on one of the front landing gear tires and it blew on takeoff and started slowly burning. Yes this happens with underinflated tires. Remember heavy plane, hot night, sea level, long run takeoff. There was a well known accident in Nigeria of a DC8 that had a landing gear fire on takeoff. A tire fire once going would produce horrific incapacitating smoke. Yes, pilots have access to oxygen masks but this is a no no with fire. Most have access to a smoke hood with a filter but this will only last for a few minutes depending on the smoke level. (I used to carry one of my own in a flight bag and I still carry one in my briefcase today when I fly).

What I think happened is that they were overcome by smoke and the plane just continued on the heading probably on George (autopilot) until either fuel exhaustion or fire destroyed the control surfaces and it crashed. I said four days ago you will find it along that route - looking elsewhere was pointless.

This pilot, as I say, was a hero struggling with an impossible situation trying to get that plane to Langkawi. No doubt in my mind. That's the reason for the turn and direct route. A hijack would not have made that deliberate left turn with a direct heading for Langkawi. It would probably have weaved around a bit until the hijackers decided on where they were taking it.

Surprisingly none of the reporters , officials, other pilots interviewed have looked at this from the pilot's viewpoint. If something went wrong where would he go? Thanks to Google earth I spotted Langkawi in about 30 seconds, zoomed in and saw how long the runway was and I just instinctively knew this pilot knew this airport. He had probably flown there many times. I guess we will eventually find out when you help me spread this theory on the net and some reporters finally take a look on Google earth and put 2 and 2 together. Also a look at the age and number of cycles on those nose tires might give us a good clue too.

Fire in an aircraft demands one thing - you get the machine on the ground as soon as possible. There are two well remembered experiences in my memory. The AirCanada DC9 which landed I believe in Columbus Ohio in the eighties. That pilot delayed descent and bypassed several airports. He didn't instinctively know the closest airports. He got it on the ground eventually but lost 30 odd souls. In the 1998 crash of Swissair DC-10 off Nova Scotia was another example of heroic pilots. They were 15 minutes out of Halifax but the fire simply overcame them and they had to ditch in the ocean. Just ran out of time. That fire incidentally started when the aircraft was about an hour out of Kennedy. Guess what the transponders and communications were shut off as they pulled the busses.

Get on Google Earth and type in Pulau Langkawi and then look at it in relation to the radar track heading. 2+2=4 That for me is the simple explanation why it turned and headed in that direction.

Smart pilot. Just didn't have the time.

did some harvesting of the unwanted this afternoon and this is whats left

some are drying but most are going into here

jesus of Cannabis · Apr 29, 2014

the stuff that has been hanging and came off the rack this morning is a headband dominant trait, a freight train running laps on my skull and a deep deep body buzz. the draw is smooth until it expands into a hot air explosion in my lungs, wow, what a head rush

jesus of Cannabis · May 8, 2014

THANK YOU FDD!!!

jesus of Cannabis · May 17, 2014

picked up a pack of god ideas seeds from Gage Green to cross with the K.K. and got back into autos, 5 buddha seeds and 5 dinafem so I will have a summer grow after all, just using my T5;s instead of the big lights.

nice work Attitude!!

jesus of Cannabis · Jun 14, 2014

ok so here is my plan.
start my autos and see how they do in the summer heat, 11 of them, start now done, by september.
September starts another grow of regulars of 6. September to October 1st vegging time, 30 days is good for my, height problems and yes I top and bend when needed. New Year Harvest means 3 month of flowering, just to be safe.
New Years starts a new grow of 12 "good ideas" from Gage Green and let them go until spring.
Rinse Lather Repeat.

I am very high so maybe this dosent make sense, but thanks, writing it in words made sense to me :-)
