I'm sorry to see you go. I think that there will always be haters, but that you've influenced far more people than you know. Want proof? Glance at the page views stats on this, or any of your threads!

So, please reconsider. This forum won't be the same without you, and I'd hate to see the haters won.

Haters don't bother me, tis bunk ass disp weed that bothers me, over a billion $$$ sold in Colorado last year that bothers me a lot. To think that there are so many clueless stoners out there that would waste money on crap bothers me, I suppose I could go on and on LOL but truth is I'm gettin old and tis time to enjoy my golden years

See Ya

Back in 09 the green rush exploded here in Colorado and as a guy that had been gardening since I got my boyscout badge for it in the late 60's and had grown our herb for many years I decided to come online and try to show new medical patients how easy it was to grow. My first grow here was as Riddleme and I grew a 22 inch tall plant named Tilders that yielded 1 oz and a half under just 97 watts of light for a total cost of less than $100.

After that a few new growers started following me and with all of the info now being spread on the web, I started doin experiments to see for myself what all the hoopla was about? In most cases I "discovered" it was a bunch of forum driven mythical nonsense.

But hey, I was that guy tellin people their plants should not stink unless there was a problem. The ol pics or it didn't happen could not prove this so I invited forum members to my home and sure enough they posted he is tellin the truth his plants don't stink.

I took that even further by havin folks over to smoke my herb and all of em posted rave reviews. I've had visitors from several countries (including Australia) and from 17 of the United States. I have shared seeds from strains I bred with all of em and to this day they all still grow em. I had a 20 year grower over that posted online that my buds were not magical or mystical but that they would change your mind about what you thought you knew about pot. He put my CTF in his all time top 10 and said that the Durban Poison and Pineapple Express I had grown was the best he ever sampled.

I tried to show folks that the herb could be better, that growing top shelf was not difficult. I've spent years doin this and in the end it seems there are just not many folks that care? Tis true I never put all the info in one place but rather spread it out among a few popular forums. And there actually were folks that sought them all out but alas very few.

Last year we had the 1st ever Ridfest where over 40 growers gathered to share their buds and talk growing, it lasted 3 days and in the end everyone decided my gear was the best, hell 6 of em said my buds were better than dabs lol.

So now it's time to wrap it all up and retire and as a parting statement I would like to leave you with one simple fact Everything I have shared with you is true if only you abandon the black market mythical crap you too can have better herb !!!

I have enjoyed my time online posting in these forums and I wish you all the very best !!!

Keep em green

Very sorry to see you go too!
I really love all I have read by you, it's been very enriching if also a tad unnerving, as I thought I was starting to "get it" and then I find you, debunking myths and introducing new, "mysterious" concepts that make lots of sense too and cast LOTS of doubt onto what is widely said elsewhere :mrgreen:

Especially on the question of lighting my life is ruined, as I now have this half baked idea of spectrums in my head and wanting to be tried out, but I cannot source the kind of lights you use in my area (it seems Europe has gotten into an LED craze, all other kinds of light are just disappearing from the market, but no spectral data on the new lights is provided- even upon request...)

THANK YOU for casting those doubts in my head! :bigjoint:
And for sharing your findings with us - as I understand, over a number of years!
Tis very much appreciated :)

All the very best to you!

I have appreciated your personae, knowledge, and the help over the past year. You and only a few others are the only reason I was still hanging around. Hey!! Those ATIs you suggested worked great. Created fire and adding it to my HPS helped me set a new yield record for my little room. But sure, bail, right when I was gonna go gaslight. ;).

As you sit around playing checkers and drinking ganja julips, i want to suggest you start compiling your information.for a book. I realise I would not be the first to suggest...but seriously i would be the first to purchase.

"Yeppers" you have done it your way and it is beautiful. Thank you so much.

LOL, I agree... and so does RM3 apparently as he's stated earlier in this thread that he's already got a book started. I've appreciated this thread too- the amber trich info, solid macro pix, debunking of light information, the no-bs attitude, etc- and wish the OP the best as he steps away from at least this portal to the cyberworld.

I'll snag a book when its out too- @RM3 , mind telling us the title or author's name for your upcoming book? Cheers and thanks again! :weed:

I enjoyed this thread rm3. As I said it is what made me decide to go with t5. Thank you for the info and enjoy retirement. I think in the future I will go bigger and use a combo of led and t5. Similar to your setup.

Rid still killing it man. I'm going to subscribe to get your book. You have helped me a ton with this venture and I thank you sir. Whether here or on the other forum rm3.com you have helped a helluva lot of people. I was Shane! On here and the other place. Again thank you sir I was lucky enough to stumble on you and uncle Ben in my first run helped tremendously. Surpassed people that were growing years before I took up the hobby. Thanks again enjoy your garden.
