What did you accomplish today?

[Laughing Grass]

Maybe mom could be head of distribution?

It was awkward enough showing my dad and asking him for help, I'm not going through that again.

No problem, just a male that keeps getting cut back waiting for his time to shine again.

My sis is a dope grower now lol... I'm corrupting my entire family. I had her do all the tucking today. I showed her your photos just in case something went wrong. She's a little intimidated by topping up the nutrients and adjusting ph. She should only have to do that two or three times while I'm away. I'm not having her do reservoir changes or anything crazy like that. This strain doesn't seem to be very stretchy, I'm a week and a half into flower and it's grown maybe five inches at most.

When your sister is done at your place, perhaps she can come to mine. I could use a vacation, and you've already trained her on basic maintenance. By the by, does she look anything like you and is she straight???

I'm genuinely interested to know what your mom's thoughts on Marijuana in general is?

I remember showing my dad my 2nd grow. They came to visit and and at some point weed came up.

It's worth mention that my dad has never smoked anything that I know and has had asthma for 50 yrs, I do not
believe he has personal experience with weed. He is not unaware, just has never chosen to partake.

My dad reminisced about times past when he offered to get my grandmother some weed, she had cancer.
I asked him if he had ever seen live marijuana plants, he said no so I asked if he would like to.

His eyes got wide and agreed to view the garden. We discussed the plants and situation at hand for about 30 min.

Never again has he mentioned it.

Replaced the pull rope on the mower, boy has no reason not to mow now. Cut down the Strawberry Cheesecake plants today and hung them. Refilled the beer shelf and the boy has dinner covered. Mashed potatoes and cube steaks with a salad. Buds and suds time.

You cut down your plants with a mower??? That's gangsta...

 

[tyler.durden]

This kids dad is a big mouth for a living. Sales.

He does not know what hard work is but he can talk you into a different conversation in an instant.
And always trying to sell. It doesn't need to be monetary based either. I've seen him tell stories and embellish
distinct flaws into a star quality.

The kids ok but his folks are "unique individuals".

 

[tyler.durden]

Nice looking horse mate like the bridal. Id love to get a western saddle like that, a good one ain’t cheap though. I generally ride on a stockmans and saddle. Our horses are constantly pampered by my daughter!!

A groom carried his new bride into the lobby of a fine hotel one night. He said loudly, "We were just married! Give us your finest suite!" The hotel clerk said, 'Very good, sir! Would you like the bridal?' The groom replied, "No, thank you. I'll just hold her ears until she gets the hang of it..."

Jerry fixn to be a hurricane hold on bitches. Probably stay a fish storm. That’s what I would expect from a storm named Jerry. Meandering around in the middle of nowhere.

Saw them at my second concert in '75. Their sound system in quadraphonic blew away all the other bands sound setup that I saw after them. Saw David Gilmour in 94 at the Superdome also. It was like a religious experience.

I saw them in Pittsburgh June 20, 1975. Had to be the same tour right before Welcome to the Machine was released. They played a few songs off it, then went into Dark Side of the Moon for an hour. Finished later with Echos.

I saw them 4 years earlier at the Syria Mosque when Meddle was out. The mosque was a small venue with near perfect acoustics. They went from a 5000 seat place to 50,000 seat stadium in 4 years.

I've seen Brit Floyd tribute band twice in recent years. Takes a 12 piece band now to duplicate the original 4 guys. Worth seeing though, very close.

This place was sooo cool. And they tore it down for a parking lot.

Floyd 93/94 should have been my first concert, but the old man was worried there would be too many drugs at the outdoor venue. He took me to zz top, indoors, instead.

30 seconds into their first song, I found out what the marijuanas smelled like.

 

[raratt]

I found out what the marijuanas smelled like.

Back in the day when everyone had a lighter, not a cell phone with a light on it. How the hell you going to light a joint with one of those? I remember going through the gate search and the guard grabs the baggie in my sock.
"What is that?"
"It's not a weapon"
"OK"
I'm outta there.

 

[FresnoFarmer]

Watered all the plants in the patio greenhouse.

LOL. You might have to wait a little while, she's three months pregnant. She's gorgeous and looks nothing like me. She's has a darker complexion like my dad is way taller than me.

My parents are first generation immigrants. My mom is a very conservative orthodox christian who never really assimilated into Canadian society very well. She thinks that legalization is a mistake that will get more kids "hooked". She knows I smoke but I've led her to believe that it's every once in a while and only since legalization... it's just easier that way. She'd probably stage an intervention or send a priest to my house if she knew I was growing and a had a cupboard full of weed. My dad's not so deep into the religious koolade and I'm his favorite so I knew there was little risk in showing him.

In that moment when you showed him, did you get that sinking feeling in your gut like you were going to puke? That's one of those life moments that's permanently etched on my brain in full clarity. He looked at me and said "You did this?", the emphasis on the word you and not this. I felt like I was twelve years old again. lol

Cobo, Michigan Palace, Silverdome, World Series of Rock at Cleveland Stadium, Legend Valley (Central Ohio) were my primary go to venues in the 70's and early 80's. Also 3 rivers(?) stadium in Pittsburgh, Zep and a Jazz festival with BB King. Had more money and drugs than sense back then so I didn't usually have to drive or manage/direct/control the situation ergo I stayed comfortably numb.

Three Rivers Stadium was great for sports, not as good for concerts. That's where Floyd was in '75.

Window pane compensated for the acoustics .

I still remember being stuck down the local river all night after the concert. We went there after and the girls thought it would be OK to cool off in the car's AC for a while without running the engine.

Killed the battery. We were too stoned to notice.

 

[raratt]

My concert time in my misspent youth was in So Cal: Long Beach Arena, The Forum in Inglewood, The LA Coliseum, LA Sports Arena. I can't say how many times in the recent past we have been to the Sac Valley Amphitheater.

Some strains will not stretch very much ,some will get 4x bigger .
What your temp differential from day/night?
I usually keep feeding veg nutes for the 3 weeks to help add to stretch. N use lots of kelp, n the CO2 adds to it too.
When you are able to manipulate the stretch your yields will increase.



Here is that brake

Sorry I haven't been around much, I'm still trying to figure out my new life. Things have been going pretty well latey otherwise. Logged well over 2,000 miles on the bike in the last couple months.
