Update:
It's been really tough trying to keep up with this journal. Hopefully things will start to settle down soon here. I really do enjoy this forum. I have learned more on here than anywhere else.
Here's a few pics. You'll some of the updates I've made to my flower tent. Still have a long ways to go but really excited about having the second light now.
Moved the cloner....again!
Small Berry Ryder autoflower
Dinachem Porta SCROG before going to the flower tent.

I also included some pics of the lemon Thai kush I recently harvested. I took her down at about 9 weeks vs the recommended 10. Only flushed her once with a gal of water and sledgehammer 4 days before harvest. I discovered on my two small auto flowers that I harvested last week that a long flush isn't necessary. I would prefer a 2 week flush just to be safe but I've haven't noticed a big difference between flushing and not flushing.
This one could've gone a couple more weeks but were almost completely out of meds and the trichs are 50% cloudy.
Have to say this is my best plant to date. The yields aren't huge. Maybe only up to 2 oz max but the quality is fantastic and I had perfectly green healthy leaves all the way up to harvest. I credit this to the ease of the strain vs my own skill tho lol. It smells just like lemon gasoline.
In the veg tent I'm still spinning the gears. Running my Dixie's to 2L to flower and occasionally growing a really good one in a 5gal porta SCROG. I did recently transplant a lemon Thai Kush into a 5gal with earth worm castings added. Hoping to see a big difference.
My critical mass, blue blood, and bubba Kush need about 1 more month of veg to get them where I want them. Hoping for big single plant harvest followed by a herd of SOG clones I get from the preflower defol.
The northern light x skunk seedling has two sets of leaves. Guessing about 2 months of veg for this one.
I'll try to post pics of the veg tent soon.
*************************
Today is my golden birthday. It seems fitting after the recent events in my life. I believe in always looking for the positive side of things no matter how bad they seem. There is always someone worse off than you.
I have learned a lot this last year and that's because of the obstacles I have had to overcome.
I believe I found my passion in life. It's funny once you finally see things clearly. You realize all the signs were there all along you just never saw them before.
My whole life has been about weed. I loved it from the first moment I smelled it. Everyone who is close to me needs this medicine. I have already had to endure the death of more loved ones than most people I know. Almost all of these people could still be alive today with this medicine. Many of them were victims of alcohol and tobacco.
I have a lot of regret for letting fear prevent me from helping people and doing what I love. That guilt burns like a fire in my heart that drives me to work harder. I stay up for hours every night in the garden. I keep pushing myself harder and harder to do better because I will never let a patient down again.
I welcome the day I have to stand before judge and defend myself because I am not scared anymore. I will gladly sacrifice my freedom for this cause.
Expect a lot in the next few months guys. Income tax is coming and my wife is behind me 100%. I gave up drinking this year just to make sure I keep all of my focus on weed. Were also planning to make it out to Denver for 4/20 this year! Hoping to learn a lot and see how my homegrown compares to the pros. This might be the year I start to grow full time
Thanks for following everyone! I appreciate all of your comments and supports. It's truly feels like a community of friends.
Sounds like both of you guys have a ton of work to do when it comes to watering lol No wonder you have been busy. Especially with those small 2 liter bottles
How are your new flavors doing in the veg tent?
I just filed my return yesterday so I have not decided what to get yet either!
