Today we got to go check out the new place and it was fantastic! It needs quite a bit of cosmetic work and yard work, but the bones are excellent. The finish work is just really shoddy though, probably the owner tried to do it, but that's OK since that's the work I can do. Like, a bunch of the outlets and wall switched have gaps between the switch plates and some light fixtures the holes were cut a bit too big, the trim around the doors good lord.. And one door it looks like they bought a door jamb that's 2" too small lmao, it's a brand new bedroom door, but has a gap of about 1.5" so the top of the jamb isn't attached to the door frame, just nailed to the sides lmao. Just little things that make me laugh but will be easy to fix, oh, also, the painting my God. It looks like they were flicking paint at a ceiling fan, there's splatters EVERYWHERE so that'll be a pain in the ass to clean but still just cosmetic. The land is perfect though, just needs mowing and the garage is MASSIVE and brand new. It looked small in the pics but holy shit it's pretty much a 3 car garage, or way oversized 2 car,perfect for me :)

So the offer was put in, and we made it much above the last offer they received which they denied, so I feel good about it :) was able to do all the paper work this time right on my phone and virtual sign it all, technology is bad ass lol

Oh, and right on schedule my clones are starting to root through the new smaller sized rw blocks so I'm stoked and should have everything vegged and ready to flower if the offer is accepted and by closing is over :D

A new prehung interior door is $100-$150 + an 18pk of coors light:-D
The splatter is most likely drywall texture sprayed by someone like stevie wonder;-)
Let me know if you want me to take a look at it. I'm sure I'll find 1000 more things wrong though:-(

Right on bro, that's my way of thinking too! That's so sad/dumb about the shootings, mj is supposed to bring people together.. I mean, it sucks if you find someone ripping you off, but a good old fashioned ass kicking with a bat would solve the problem and everyone would live :(


Awesome bro! Honored this thread was your first post and thank you! House hunting is super stressful for sure, but it'll be worth it in the end. You sound exactly like me, looking for a great place but with growing potential, I mean we're going to be in the house for years and can't just move, so definitely look to the future for how much you want to upgrade, make sure it has enough space and then you can grow your grow if you want :) good luck on your home search as well bro, don't rush into anything and always weigh your options, and never over pay! Lol

No doubt, thanks. I'll definitely be taking my time. My ultimate goal is to have the secret door behind the bookshelf where the grow room is. Hahaha that would be sick!!

hell yeah, deal! Lol, there is actually alot more I noticed that I'll want to change eventually, like the tile job is terrible, but it's solid at least but they used too much mortar in spots so some tiles are raised a bit more than others, and either didn't use spacers or just didn't know how to do it, reminds me of the tile in my kitchen lol. The cool thing is with the dogs it doesn't matter for now really, it'll be easy to clean and it is livable for now. Tons more cosmetic nickel and dime stuff that I was ignoring, it all adds up for sure, but it's all easily fixable and I can make it all how I want it to be, like the trim I want natural wood instead of white, and different fixtures for sure. Kitchen counters I'll want to switch out but I love the cabinets. Carpet is old in the bedrooms. House is HUGE tho, feels like a mini castle that needs some tlc :)

Thats fucking awesome Alpha! I know you've been searching for a new place for a bit now. Hope it all works out for you!! Tlc on houses is to be expected these days I guess. Most try to live decent but there are some trashy ass people who just love to destroy something that was once beautiful :/ Nywayz that's just something else you can take pride and pleasure in! Make it your own! Alpha's Cannabis Castle...coming soon lol Good luck homie

Thanks brother! And you got that right, it seems every other house has some issues that shouldn't be there! I really hope things work out and if the offer is accepted it passes inspection and appraisal, it's pretty rough around the edges but luckily I can see past the imperfections and have a master plan to make it great already drawn up in my head :) fingers crossed bro, I should know one way or the other in a few days, maybe even tomorrow :D

MASSIVE YIELD, better then 4 oz per nice taste and enjoyed peeling the buds back to show the beautiful colors and flavors, dried for 4 or 5 days and bottled it up, smoked some and it was nice tasting with lemon grass undertones and smooth.

Awesome bro! I told ya the yield is outstanding! ;) tga always has some solid genetics, he has a few strains I'd like to try eventually, there's a purple strain I want but I can't remember the name, and the chernoble I hear is great as well :)

The mendo Breath leaves are purple now and it's smelling like sugar cookies kinda, the minty smell is mostly gone, really curious how this will turn out, it's coming out better than I expected and density is nice which I was super worried about, if she smokes good I'm keeping her and will run 2 different mendos :)

I do believe so. She is one frosty/greasy bitch. I almost wouldnt want to touch her in fear of losing any of that goodness, but I know I couldnt help myself just squeezing it. Looks like a great hasher!!!!

Oh man you have no idea, I have one bud I squeeze once a week lmao, I leave the rest alone thought :) every grow I pick one bud to molest through the grow hahaha, I haven't made hash with her yet though but this run I will! I've only grown 1 mendo Breath plant before and this is a different pheno than the last one I had but very similar which I'm super stoked about, it was by far the easiest plant to trim I've ever had, which sucks for hash because there's hardly any trim, but I bet the trim that is there will be fire!

Hahaha. I'm totally down with the same idea. Usually I'm in the room yelling "Honey come touch this! Just wrap your hand around it and feel its girth!". I am talking about the buds of course, although by this time I am usually overly excited anyways bout the whole situation anyways.
