Way cool! Then you have great background in growing. Enough said! I reread his topping page over and over again. He just donated $2500 to 420, even more respect from me!

Wish I had 18 to grow legally ........

Topping or (femming) has been something I have been doing for many years on all my outdoor growing and there is an art to it, did you know you can fem the other branches besides the main stim and the main can be fem'ed more than once! the other branches you have to do early on before the branches get to far along ie, " the closer in to the main stim the better" so one plant can be top on every off shoot branch, but you may or will have to support those branches at some point in time.

The more you top though the more energy it will require from the plant and it will slow down the grow rate a bit just depends on how many times you top the same plant.

Wish my business was doing the business I had 4 years ago! I would donate some myself, I am trying to reinvent the business takes time and consideration on an approach an marketing, considering what I was doing which was more custom home theater services than other stuff! and now! it's not as popular as it was a few short years ago before the housing market went to shit.

And because of what has happened people think it should be cheeper now yeah "RIGHT" equipment costs has continued to go up, insurance continues to go up very year by 20% to 30% I just don't know why anyone would think things should be cheeper specially labor? and I have cut my labor cost as low as they can go any further and there is no point of being in business.

Wow! You are an old timer. I did what you said about topping last grow, had string, wire and what ever I could find holding everything up. Hell of a harvest though. Yea, I am actually on my third grow and still learning. No expert by any means. Sure is fun though!

Man, I feel for you. The collapse of the housing market hurt us all, the bottom just fell out. Been trying to sell this house for 3 years now.
How could hourly wage go down? It's still the same effort. The computer industry is the only place that you get better equipment for the same price as years go by.

You'll think of something I'm sure.

Cool Bro! we rocktobers have to sticks together, man this heat isn't good for the plants it's been over 97* for days now more like! yeah! over 100*! but hopefully it's going to start to cool down starting Sunday, shame is there is nothing I can do to keep the plants cool, I am sure their growth has stopped for now during this heat wave! and should start growth again after it cools down for a while and stays down under 90's' went through this last year to! but the plants back then were much bigger about 4'ft taller than these going.

Smile Be Happy! smoke a joint! Time for an Attitude Adjustment!

This one phrase I use to use over 20 years ago! Time for an Attitude Adjustment! so I know no one here! coined that one! it's more than 20 years old.

 

[Doctor Who]

Todays Update! bit of a heat wave! the outdoor grow, one plant has just been loving the heat and has grown 4" in the last few days what's up there! most be the strain it comes from! where the heat has the other plants growth slowed down to a crawll and killing off 2 of the smaller weaklings out the bunch.

Hi Doc 49 years for me, but got a few years on you, I'll be 69 in November. Everyday of life is a gift! Tried to grow in my hippie days, didn't know what I was doing. Still learning the art.

Way cool on those contracts. Keeps some money coming in.

No thank you on that drive. Yea Gods! Thats hot! No A/C. You must have lost 10 pounds. That drive would be 3 and a half round trips around the island,

Take care my friend

Well you sound younger to me, and that's always a good sign of a persons mind! Yeah back in the day just through the seeds in the ground and watered them with plain old water.

Coast line is only that long around the island wow but the place is bueatyfull and worth the short drive, yeah now my dilemma is pay off the jeep or get the A/C fixed for around $800 more or less! I am thinking of just toughing it out, this always happens just when I think I am gaining some ground building founds for the business and staying on top of or ahead of a negative cash flow, but that's how the game is played! your up! and then your down! keeps me busy and the mind occupied! hahaha like with growning plants, but! just not as fun most the time.

The plants are recouping now! lot's of new growth leaves and the flowering auto's are okay and still flowering and growing! only the leaves were affected and will only be using Bat Guano fertilizer! just enough to feed them what they need for now! their looking much better, the cool down with the outside temps helps also but still hitting the 90's.
