Looking good braddah. It's cool to see a bit of your garden :) Does the GDP turn purple?

This one gets a grayish purplish on the leaves. Even with all the cool nights we've had. Lots of orange hairs. Buds so solid, I have a hard time grinding it. Easy to clone. Someday I'll pop another seed, maybe I'll get more purp. Due to moisture in the air, I do get bud rot around week 7 and normally have to cut early. Might be why I miss the Purple too.

Those look super nice. Hows the smoke and yield.
Thanks. Yield would be great if I didn't have the mold issues. I only keep the good stuff. Anything else I see while trimming or drying gets tossed. Since what we can have on hand legally is limited, I usually try to have some to throw out, choosing to keep the best of what is grown.


The mold issue is the reason I tried growing it the three ways...

Right on, I probably would've have opted for something like that, but I wanted to have the lights go on in the middle of the night so it's a little less obvious than staying on for a few hours after sunset since most people are asleep by midnight. I don't have any close neighbors to my garden. The closest one is about a quarter mile away, but when I had lights running from sunset to around 11PM they still asked why the area was all lit up. It's pretty obvious when a spot is lit up in complete darkness out in the middle of nowhere.
Seen some videos today of some huge waves out near you. Those dudes are so nuts!

Yeah, the waves have been pumping almost everyday. It's been a pretty epic winter for surfing. I hear them crashing from about a half mile away and falling asleep to their roar... super cool. And yeah, those guys are (coco)nuts for sure. I can't imagine what it would be like surf Jaws, I'm pretty sure if I did it and I wasn't focusing so much on not dying I'd urinate myself a few times, ha ha.

Nothing like a warm wetsuite.
A warm wet suite? You are partying too hard if you're getting suites all wet like that.

I have way to much time on my hands.
Ha ha ha, apparenty, I see your posts all over the place on here. You know what they say about idle hands.... Well, don't worry little buddy, summer will be here soon enough :) You may have to train an apprentice to handle your lightwork on here of smacking trolls in the boto and chiming in with classy and funny little anecdotes while you're busy growing garden monsters. It would be some intensive training to bring them up to par though. Just a thought.

Your a good guy ,
I worked for a company for 14 years that just about killed me , ruined my health and threatened my marriage til I thru in the towel. Now I'm just trying to do my own thing and waiting for CA to get their shit straight and step into the industry on the up and up. It's taken about 2 months now for me to start feeling better but now I have to much time to think about things and get these weird feelings I never had time to get.
I'm thankful for the friends I have meet and made here . I have a chance this year to run a big farm and a life changing experience . I do see monsters in the near future.
How ever I will be off the grid this summer so my riu time will be limted. That's probably a good thing. I love this place but it gets to me sometimes with the wrong info given out a lot of the time. Sometimes I just think I will stop posting but it's like a bad addiction. Lol

Huh? This whole time I was figuring you were some dude from Mendo/Humboldt/Butte/etc. and probably grew up as a barefoot hippy kid or something and possibly turned bro to your parents' dislike, not a company man, ha ha. Good for you throwing in the towel, you can't let Babylon bring you down. You'll probably love and hate living off-grid. I've done it and it's great and frustrating at the same time, but more great than frustrating. Country living is good for the soul overall and the little annoyances of living off-grid just help to make you creative or make you freaking tough like when you have to take cold showers on a cold night, uggh, that'll put some hair on your chest...... it's your body's natural defense when it feels like you're trying to kill it with freezing water in freezing air, ha ha, just kidding, that doesn't really happen (I don't think anyway), in actuality it just makes your balls retreat into your stomach is all...... who needs them hanging out anyway, it makes you more vulnerable to nut shots and cooler testicle temperatures help increase fertility (if that's what you're going for). So yeah, good job making the right choice, few things in this world are more important than family and health.

And yeah, RIU is like the heroin of the internet, ha ha ha.

I lived in a teepee in the hills of Maui when I was a kid and I hated it at first. Then I found out how much I hated technology. The earth, sea, and sun are what I need!

Green acres is the place to be
Farm living is the life for me
Land stretching out so far and wide...
