Homer's Legal 4-Plant Max Perpetual Minimalist Garden In Ontario

I seem to be neglecting my posting because I am preoccupied with editing my next video so I wanted to throw up some quick raw photos of my Gorilla Glue plant. She is looking very healthy and vigorous being nice and green without even a hint of burned tips at this stage; healthwise I couldn't ask for anything more. She is also taking her training quite well and the tertiary branches are filling out nicely so she looks like she will have a nice structure in flower. Also considering that is a 10-gallon pot she is a good size already.

Thanks Penny. So far it is encouraging how she's doing and it's also encouraging how the Dr. seeds 1-20 was also a pretty vigorous plant but I've learned not to count my chickens before they're cured. On another happy note, there was toilet paper at the grocery store yesterday when I went shopping. :party:
 
Sorry but I have to blow off some steam….. again. I have spent the last two weeks trying to edit a video using my time-lapse photography to describe my minimalist growing system for a YouTube video. I am using Adobe Premiere Elements 2020 and it is the glitch-ist most crash-prone buggy program I have ever encountered. I swear I have spent just as much time fighting it to make it work than actually editing with it. In the last two weeks, I am sure I have reinstalled it a minimum of a dozen times.

Basically most of their programs now are only by subscription for $20 per month per program or $50 for the whole suite. I really think they don’t properly support this program I bought which is the amateur version because they want you to get a subscription and pay for the rest of your life for the professional version.

As soon as I fixed one problem another one pops up and I have a problem I cannot fix now so I called their customer support and after an hour and 20 minutes of waiting I talked to some clown that said he had to transfer me. There was no input on their phone menu for my program so they don’t even really want to support it on the phone.

These god damn corporations are just evil greedy scam artists. It’s really heartbreaking because my video is a little masterpiece and now it’s half done and I have to start over with a completely different program and I have basically wasted the last couple months learning a program that I won’t be using anymore. And the animation program I use for my 3-D graphics which is open source is absolutely rock-solid and it doesn’t cost a penny.

On Amazon.ca where I bought the program a whopping 25% of people give this program the lowest possible rating of one star and the biggest complaint is that it crashes and is full of bugs so it isn’t just me. $160 down the god damn tubes. The way the world is going it is really time for the little people to rise up and break out the guillotines.

Thank you, cr8grow. I appreciate the understanding comment about my software. I tend to cope with things by losing it and getting it out of my system and then I'm able to do a pivot and try a different approach so I'm feeling better now and I think I have found a pretty good free alternative. A program called da Vinci Resolve has a free version which from my readings will probably do everything I need. They sell mixing equipment and cameras where I guess they make most of their money so they can afford to give away a free version of their software. Not too keen on Adobe. Maybe Karma is paying me back for all their hacked versions I have used in the past. :oops: I was really enjoying doing the video editing for the brief times the damn program actually worked.

I don't blame you about manuals; when I worked in construction the big joke was it was considered a real defeat to use instructions. I actually learn most programs using YouTube vids mostly as I find they are a lot easier to understand than the manuals. Usually the manuals use so many technical terms I don't even know what I read a half the time.

I may have gone a little too far with my guillotine statement but after wasting an hour and 20 minutes waiting on the phone for customer support that was useless I think anyone would have been a little distraught. :(

I know the feeling well trust me.

Sadly, I think we have probably all been driven over the edge at one time by phone customer service. I'm still just recovering from my P-98 experiences, LOL.

I have 6 of the P98, we’ll see if I can get them to go.

That is cool. I think you will probably have good success; I don't get it but he has his own journal and lots of people post pictures of their healthy P-98 plants so I seem to be the outlier. If anybody can get them to go it's you.
 
It is long enough in the past it doesn't bother me now but it does eat away at me at what a confounding mystery it is that everyone has such good success but they were the worst seeds I had ever tried to grow. I still have four seeds left from my Dr. Seeds, Bubba Kush so I will eventually try them again despite the one dying so maybe one day I will be able to check it out. I'm really curious about this "narcotic" effect.
 
Cool, I will bear that in mind when I grow the Dr. Seeds version. :thumb:
 
The Dr. Seeds site says 49 to 63 days but whatever it takes I will follow your advice and let them get good and amber.
 
I was hoping it would help me sleep better but now even with the Northern Lights which used to help my sleep is all screwed up again so I don't know, LOL.
 
I've used Pinnacle for video editing as it was 'free' with the video converter I bought to transfer my VHS tapes to DVD. The version I have is not that great, and I've not bought the upgraded versions.

Have you looked at Corel Video Studio? They have a 30 day trial available, and it's not leased software. I've used Corel's editing and graphic design packages since '94. They seem pretty good, even though I'm not a graphic artist. I'm still learning how to use parts of it, and often still do things the 'hard' way.
