Brobo's Thread for the Bro's (and Sisters, too)...

[Bobotrank]

I dunno I got a couple of trainwreck doms that look like they might go 10 weeks too we'll see.

Keep up the updates... i'm curious to see how your trainwreck compares to mine... so far pretty similar looking.

Then I bet yours smell like old hippy, too? I love mine... would definitely try growing this one out again. Looks like she's a good yielder, too. I think as a bunch of single colas you could kill it weight wise.

F;king sacks eh? That sucks I hope they stay away!

Sorry to hear about your rough bat with PM, I hope I never get that stuff. Your plan sounds good though.


BTW~ great pictures, nugs look delish.

Thanks bro, glad you made it back in one piece. The sacks aren't worrying me half as much as this fuking mildew. I'm about to go down and spray right now/eradicate anything suspect looking.

The funny thing is (about the sacks) is I actually spotted them when they were still in veg, but was seeing pistils, too, so just did nothing thinking I was making a mistake on my sexing (everything was still pretty small). So the questions begs, was it straight up my fault somehow? OR is it a recessive gene that is showing? In veg the girls were hardly stressed... the only problems I saw along the way was a spot of PM here or there. But never awful. Temps were always good. My tent pushes high 70's now, but every once in awhile will sneak into the low 80's. I'm thinking maybe that's part of it?

sup brobro! how goes the pm war? I actually wan't pished when i was up late that night. was waiting for the better half to come in. now she was sloshed hahaha. hangover all day

looks like some real sativa goodness you got going, the pandoras and TW look nice n frosty. but looking at how slender the leaf structure is i'd say 10 wks minimum.

as for the banana's i recently got a bottle of dutch master reverse. that stuff works a charm man.

have a good weekend man

Hey DGT my man. Glad to hear you were being a good boy that night, and that it was your las instead who was ragin'! You sound like a good guy, waiting up for her to come home so you can tuck her drunk little arse into bed, lol.

I'm with you on flower times, although I know I won't be able to take them that long with all my issues. The Pandora's will supposedly finish a little faster if you have the right pheno. Sub has done a good job on breeding some faster finishers into his gear.

So my wife has been giving me some serious shit about my grow lately. Battling the PM takes up a lot of time, and without the 6-8 oz I was getting, it's not brining in that extra little bit of cash she liked having. "Wouldn't it just be cheaper to buy an ounce every month?" she says. Yeah, but not nearly as fun! Hmf.

Alright you guys, pray for me, lol.

 

[jigfresh]

You gotta step your game up bro! That's not a good thing to be floating around wifey's head.

 

[colocowboy]

Maybe she doesn't realize that your more sad about it that she is!? You should tell her "way to support your man in his time of need" lol oh, salted wounds.... hahahah
It's your hobby that also happens to pay off more often than not!
Have a great Friday mango, fellas!

 

[jigfresh]

Bobo... a question comes to mind. How are you spending more on your grow than an oz a month. I guess it depends on what your oz's cost you, but to me I'd get a zip for $200, and there is no way I'm spending $200 a month on growing. Am I missing something? What are you buying?

 

[Bobotrank]

A good question indeed. Let me explain.

Our electric bill goes up $300/mo when I grow. I used to get "low income" power before, but now it's a joke. Rates are so high since we moved. I'm guessing it's the LED and extra fans that are bulking it up, too. That said, the place I normally get zips from here is $275 if I hit the right day. With my loss to PM last round I barely made 2-3 zips. I paid the same to put in a bunch of my time as I would have to just have someone bring my weed to me. I guess her mentality is part opportunity cost. The loss of time sucks, but I really enjoy smoking my own. I think she just wants me to take a break for a little bit.

Just sprayed green cure today and continued to fight the battle. Oh, and pretty sure I spluffed like 85% of my garden. I was molesting the ?p and a cloud of pollen shook off, and drifted back into the tent Fuck.

Hope you are all having a great day, too!

 

[Highlanders cave]

Hey hey what's going on. Things will smooth out on the home front homie. Maybe take a break till the second half of the summer and buy wifey a bag of mid grade so she'll appreciate homegrown dankity dank. And don't run that garden again with out a dehumidifier lol. Your elec rates must be a lot higher than mine,,,,mine went from approx 60/month to 260 and that's with 2 lights and cfls coming out the wahoo. Not to mention fans, air purifier, dehumidifier, ac, radio lol. Got to incl the radio haha.

Hey I just got back with 2 new osc fans speaking of which lol. Been smoking the blue dream the last few days, just took a rip of some kush, pk x sad, getting that nice narcotic feeling enveloping me like a warm blanket.

So Blondie and I are getting pretty close and I'm going to tell her what I do. Too much of a facade not too. Almost like I have to lie about everything. This is what I'm going to do,,,,,let her know that I breed superior cannibus strains and give the beans to patients, dispenseries and collectives in 3 countries. That's all true and let her know that beans, stalks and roots are not considered usable and are therefore not illegal, again true. And they can be mailed as a novelty. And a by product of being a breeder is the weed it produces which I sell to one of the states 3 dispensaries through underground channels.

This chick is really falling in love with me quickly and I don't want to hurt her any more than I have to. If she can't handle it then she can't handle it. Obviously taking a huge risk but who knows, she likes bad boys maybe she'll get off on the whole cloak and dagger living a double life thing

 

[whodatnation]

Spray those ladies down with water asap, kills pollen on contact.

 

[colocowboy]

What whodat says, spray them down asap!

Damn, now I don't feel so bad about electricity costs here.

 

[ReefBongwell]

Yeah you're getting raped on electric for sure if an LED is costing you that much I'd say making money or breaking even is still better than spending $200+/mo buying it -- not knowing what kinda crazy shit went into it... but yeah, I say if she liked the money then you just need to step it up

HC hope it goes well... it's a big dilemna... if you misjudged her it's a big penalty. if you don't tell her it ends up being 'our whole relationship is a lie' type of thing

you should've told her before now that you used to grow and see what her reaction was... if she was cool about it you can say you still do and you were just testing her if she's not cool about that you reinforce that it's your past, get a last bang or two in and drift apart it seems pretty early to trust her with that info without knowing first how cool she would be with that scenario in general... but maybe you already do?

 

[Highlanders cave]

Thanks bongwell I'm going with my gut instinct on this one but I'll take your advice into consideration. That's why I threw it out there, get some other ideas and advice.

Bobro when you run out of weed you go down and buy your honey the best bag of pot you can find,,,,,,she deserves it mon amie. I felt bad even saying go buy wifey a bag of mids lol.

Weekends here have a good one!

 

[jigfresh]

Biggest time saver I ever had was telling my wife (when I met her) my major shortcomings. I figured if she could deal with that not even knowing me, then things would be all good later. So I guess my advice would be to paint the picture accurate as can be and see what she thinks. And when I say accurate, I just mean honest about time and energy, not necessarily being honest about how many plants you grow and shit like that.

I had no idea you were spending so much. My wife would have told me to shut shit down a long time ago with that kinda bill. That's a wild bill for sure.

Honesty is always the best policy. But yeah, don't tell her how many plants. I'm always sneaking new ones into the house. My wife finds them and I'm like, "What? They needed a home. Just look at their puppy dog eyes." She can't compete with that.

I have faith that all will be good, and she'll still love you. So psyched! She sounds like a keeper so far.

I'm running a 600w + LED in there... the LED is just supplement.

What whodat says, spray them down asap!

Damn, now I don't feel so bad about electricity costs here.

I'm glad I could help. Anytime you want to feel lucky, hit me up. Cost of living here is retardo.

Yes! I just happened to hit them with the green cure as all of this was going down. I'm sure that'll do the trick.

My wife doesn't smoke really... that's the bummer. Well, maybe not. More for me I guess. The thing she liked is when we'd make the $ back from the elec bill. Normally I'd just make it break even, and keep the rest for me.

2 new fans! I forgot to mention my dehu, too. I've been running that at night.

I'm rooting for blondie.

Gotta go. Getting dirty looks from wife. She's so annoying sometimes. Later!

No one should have to buy mids except newbs with no tolerance

 

[Bobotrank]

At least not when we can grow the chron!

 

[Highlanders cave]

Hey brother how's it going.

Everything went perect,,,relaxing on a blanket at the lake after a long walk, cheese and crackers, beautiful day. I told my little dutch girl what I do,,,at least how I had phrased it the other day when I mentioned it to you that I was going to tell her,,,AND SHE DUG IT LOL!! Shoot I think it made her want me that much more haha. Her first words were "do you make enough money so we can go to Jamaica tomorrow"?

Went with my gut on this one and she was very cool with it. Koo koo koo kooooooool beans mangotango!

 

[SupaM]

Man I'm late to the party.....but now I'm here...lol Sup, erbody!

 

[jigfresh]

Welcome, we've been waiting.

I'm putting seeds in soil right now. Excited to start a new round.

Always fun starting new strains huh Jig. I have some seedlings myself that just came up this week that came from pops out your way I believe. Actually I forget where you are lol out that way somewhere

Good look with the new ones!

 

[ReefBongwell]

Great news HC I hope you make enough to take her to jamaica lol... and also that you either marry her or she's good at breaking up and not spiteful oh and i hate to always be the devils advocate here, but now that she knows what you do gonna have to be more careful playing with the other women don't want to inspire her to use her knowledge for evil

I got excited earlier because I realized in 4 weeks or so I'll be starting new seeds

 

[Highlanders cave]

Thanks bongwell, no playing around for me man. She could be a keeper, treats me much better already than I'm used to. Very pretty for her age too which doesn't hurt
