I agree, the pic's really don't do it.

When I first built the greenhouse, it was just a big empty open space
Now, it's chocked full of large vibrant living plants. Inside you feel their electricity.
Those big green leaves are thick to the touch.
The pungent smell of fresh marijuana flowers has overtaken the greenhouse.
You can't sense these things from a picture.

I wish I could teleport you here for a visit.
So each of you could spend a fun filled day, working in the garden.

P.S. It was something I learned from my father-in-law. "If your gonna come visit my daughter, bring your gloves, there's plenty of work to do around here!" LOL!

I soooooo wouldn't mind spending a day (or more) working in your garden. Effing Eden man! I tip my pipe to you.

Sorry folks, they wouldn't let me include a picture in my private message to a bro, so here it is. One of my favorite things, fresh smoked wild salmon!

I just took this picture as I opened my smoker. There's 2 whole salmon in there. One of these is for a friend.

I LOVE smoked salmon!

i love smoking salmon.... not just eating it, but the whole process.... i love the smell of the brine, and the smell of a freshly opened smoker.... all the thick brine and oil dripping from the fish, its almost as if you can taste the smell its so strong...

i do have a very bad memory of smoked fish as well, DONT go over board with it..... over a 3 day period i ate 15~ LBS of home smoked lake trout..... BAD idea. there was so much fish oil it made me super sick for 2 days.....

He get's it!

Smoking salmon is only second to catching them!

I love taking boats out of Sausalito or Berkeley. The view of the city is awesome from the bay & you get to go under the Golden Gate. Twice if your lucky!lol!
This is the "New Rayanne"

P.S. Best salmon trip I ever took was several years ago during 'Fleet Week' in SF. Fished for salmon all day & back inside the bay to anchor off Alcatraz for the afternoon Blue Angels show! Unbelievable!

that is one hell of a catch very nice

Hey jj-
Them some beautiful fish you have there.
I have a few fish stories, but one of the better ones was over 25 years ago. Me and my younger brother (he was 14 at the time) took a charter out of San Pedro to Catalina for a day of fishing. The Sea Bass/Calico Bass bite was on, everybody was catching fish accept my brother.....all day long....nothing. I had my limit, was catching fish for his bag, then I hooked into a MONSTER sea bass, 3 times bigger then any other fish on the boat, almost a freak fish it was so big. That was the jackpot fish for sure.
Now it's getting late in the day, just about everybody has their limits, but still no fish for my brother....nothing all day. Captain says "about 15-20 minutes until we head in"....I'm thinking damn, my poor little brother hasn't caught shit! Even the women and little kids are catching fish. About that time I look over at my brother and I see he's getting a bite. Tap....tap...jerk....he sets the hook, and the damn fish almost pulls him overboard. I grabbed him and his pole is pointing straight down to the water, he starts yelling TAKE IT TAKE IT! I tell him HELL NO, I got you, reel that bitch up! So he starts reeling the fish up, pole pointing straight down the whole time. Cranking it up slowly, but surely, but the line is running under the boat. By this time a crowd has gathered because we all knew it was a big fish, but couldn't see crap because the line was running under the boat. After which seemed a hour (5-7 minutes) the fish finally showed it's self. All at once everybody yelled GAFF!
This little prick caught a 28lb Halibut, took my jackpot money, $96, and all the bragging rights, won our personal bet we had between us.......damn him! Here I was feeling bad for him, and the prick goes and steals all the thunder and money in one swoop! Brothers.

I got a few more, but that's one that came to mind.
Throw one on the grill for me!
TMB-

The last 2 jackpots I have won, I caught the 2nd biggest fish. The guy with the biggest didn't ainty-up! I had the 2nd biggest fish & the money!LOL! That was fun!

Niiiice catch DJJ! I hate to say it but I am not a fish person. Way bad experience as a child. I wish I liked it though, because I would love to cook it. Your smoked salmon looks yummy - you know, if I were a fish person.

just make sure to teleport when you need help testing lol

I got a question for your JJ: Does that English Ivy cause any problems for you? Bugs don't seem to much care for it, but powdery mildew eats it up. I've peeled back at least half a ton of English Ivy from my house and yard because of the PM problems it causes me.

And when are you going to start using the Maxsea Bloom? I know you're blooming in there, anything with a big ol' fat indica leaf should be beginning flowering by now. I know your Herijuana is (or is it the Medijuana?) My SFV is part Afghanica and is already 2 weeks into bloom. Totally stoked. I tried my damndist to find a spot for a greenhouse, but the only place is on top of my second story porch, and I have neighbors up hill from me. I'm sure I could get away with it, but I have some paranoid grow partners. I guess they have good reason. We have a huge heroin/drug problem up here on the mountain. Fucking cartel processes it and spreads it everywhere, because it's secluded up here, that is why I grow up here, privacy. I went to a cafe yesterday for a sandwich and found a fucking crack pipe in their planter out front. I'm not dicking around, a fucking crack pipe! It's fucking terrible, man.

....sorry, I got a little high, and started rambling. Just tested out the new crop. It's pretty gosh darn good.

JJ, mama and sis in law were up late making blackberry pies, want one? Fresh picked berries from my own stash.....

OMG! Hell yes! I'll call you!

Amazing! I am def. watching this one til the end!! Good work !! +Rep!!

The guy you see planting my garden is a dear friend from Ventura, in SoCal. I met him on a beach in Baja many years ago. He is part of a Bluegrass band & a long board surfer & very good Ab diver.

He we are on a beach about 450 miles below the border. We would build a big bon fire at night & they would break out the guitars & mandollin. He would pull ab's off the rocks the size of dinner plates & catch mucho Lobsters.

If you look close, in the middle of the picture, you'll see "Mo". We named him Mo because none of us had ever seen 'Mo lobster' than that! We guessed around 8#. We all pigged-out on lobster tacos that night!

We used to go every year. We quit going a few years ago when the all the violence started. I sure miss those trips.

And you can see 'Ursa' our previous Chinese Shar Pei. She loved beach camping & she kept our camp safe. RIP Sweetheart!

P.S. Treeman, I won't even bring-up the barndoor but's we would horse up onto the beach!

dam man..... i know what it feels to long for mexico. my family has a place in Cabo, some of the family still goes down twice a year, but since all the violence and gang BS started its just not the same. you get that dirty feeling, everyone knows somethings wrong but no one does anything about it... and you cant do anything you realy want to, because it might piss someone off and you never know what might happen. i hav;t been back since canadians and americans started to get murdered.

wishing there was more PEACE, and LOVE in the world.

PS, MO was one big SoB.
