Wow!!! Living in a utilities included building really has it's perks. Until I started growing I considered it a rip-off but guess who's getting the short end of the stick now?
Some great convos going on the last 5 pages & nice update Sphnx.


And the leprechauns & branch breaking convos; CLASSIC...

Having included utilities would worry me... Growing in a building that was even partly serviced would worry me. Makes my shitty terraced abode seem more appealing. Damp and spiders are one thing but some building superintendent mosying about would make me very nervous.
 
Dude, my Management Company runs over 200 buildings in the city & they don't use individual meters per apt plus it didn't spike up. I started with one plant & two CFLs a little over a year ago & gradually built up as my grow budget allowed. And even if they were to approach me I would say "No you can't come by & where were you when I was paying all this rent without using hardly any kilowatts"? Man, we don't even open the door for Police without a warrant here. Anything you have to say you can say it through the peephole. As long as my rent is paid on time Bunk em!

That mess you see on TV about Landlords having keys to your apt is nonsense. Most everyone in this city adds an additional deadbolt to any new apt they move into. You never know who was the previous tenant.
 
Well they always have the ones they gave you but not the ones you add. I don't know about where you live but here that's why you see so many apts with 4 or 5 locks on them. It's not for security, it's every time a new tenant moves in they add a new lock.
 
It's cheaper to just add a lock. Eventually the Landlords change the doors instead of giving out a million keys every-time a new tenant moves in. I guess it's just one of those NY things. The Locksmith probably would look at you crazy if you ask him do anything other than drill in a new deadbolt lock. Why pay him to replace one when he can just drill 4 more small bolt holes. The standard is like $10 plus the price of the lock.
 
I guess so. the locks we use it's easier to just replace the barrel and the keys.

i imagine growing weed in new york city would be so much easier than growing it where i am; I'm sure the cops are kept plenty busy with the other millions of inhabitants. the population of my whole country is a quarter that of just your city, so the police have time to twiddle their thumbs and walk up and down streets sniffing the air looking for grows lol
 
lmao,I know exactly what BAR is talking about,when I was a city folk,in a population of about 4 million

its all you would hear,click,click,click,click,hey how ya doing--shut the door click click click click,its a city thing,hahahahaha
 
i imagine new york city to be.... sweaty and humid, all the time.
My country is 13,000 km/2 with a population of 1.8m
where as there's 4m of you sardined into 1,200 km/2

makes me shudder to think what Beijing is like :/
 
:rofl:
The temps and humidity goes up & down just like anywhere else. I guess it's what you're accustom to. If I were to walk outside & not see people I'd think something terrible had happened. But the scenes you see in the movies is not the residential areas. That shoulder to shoulder people on the sidewalks is only in mid-town & downtown during business hrs where I'm at work now. But you never see no-one outside like I do when I go out-of-town.


Back to growing. Sorry for hi-jacking your thread Sphnx...
 
I wrote a song in high school called Hiding in the Dark.

It was about unlocking the door and facing fears. It was inspired by a movie in which the main character had ...many many deadlocks on their door, set in NYC or LA...same same(? No offence)..can't remember the movie any more...

I can leave my keys in the car when we go shopping. The house, shed, everything well, I dunno that it's ever been locked....oh yes one Christmas I did when we went to the mainland....If I had to lock a door on a building everytime I left it...id go insane!

I lived in a 'high security' apartment in the city once. Keyed entry to put the car in the garage underneath, keyed entry for the lift, keyed entry for the door, keyed exit for the f'n balcony...I broke the lease in 2 months...couldn't stand HAVING to think about that all the time...the delays every time you want to well do anything!...no it's the getting permission off an electronic box that shi*ts me the most...I'd rather beat the f outta it with a hammer, personally, than wasting my life complying to the will of 18c worth of resistors...


I"m sorry is as much as I can offer on that! :)
 
Hahaha thank you for all of the compliments on the page before! Sorry C the update will be up tonight..... well tonight for me, probably around 3 or 4 am. lol I'm still contemplating whether or not I want to cut down the Fortune Cookie tonight.... It's pretty much done. But I think I want to flush it one more time before I cut it down. Going to hit them with a flush tonight... The 8 weekers that is, the 9/10 weekers are all getting a half strength feeding tonight, mainly for the flush purposes as well.

I can't wait to run all the same strain. This run is suffering because of the mix match in there. Every strain needs different things at different times.... It's so damn hard to be able to give them that. At least next round it's all Afghan strains and all 3 are 8 weekers.

Much love for all the kind words everyone.

Fine, but it needs to be available on kindle. I'm all digital now. there hasn't been a physical book, vhs cassette or optical disc in this house for years lol
 
If you're anything like me I reckon you've written more about it than of it lol

I'll go back through the whole journal and see what i can pick out of it. The same as what I've been meaning to do with Toker69s... though i keep being put off by the vast amounts of ballast these things tend to get filled with. Pages and pages of discussion about things other than the work lol


...of course i can see the irony in that statement..

The plants look amazing! But leprechauns aren't as cute when you get up close and smell their breath and see their skin, etc.

Old person's breath x 100, combined with the smell of an alcoholic on a 6 decade bender.......I'm tellin ya, it's not good.
