SweetSue's Perpetual 2.0 - The Transition To Doc Bud's HBB Kit

I did good for a while, I didn't buy anything for over a month. My next goal (after the Carnival and Mandarin Haze purchase I make soon) will be to go two months without buying anything.....but someone has me looking at the freaking gelato strain. So who knows if I will be able to make that goal.
 
I desperately want new seeds but can't even look because I don't have money to buy all of them haha.

Eventually Carnival is on my list, but I'm sticking with autos for now. I'm too impatient still.
 
Oh Sue! How I've missed reading your posts!

I hope you don't mind, but I skipped just to the last few pages and read those. I'll be here again from here on out though, pinky promise!

Actually, in honour of you, I just dropped a DDA in my freshly set up tent!

smokie...... :hugs::hugs::hugs: How've you been my friend? You know I don't expect anyone to keep up with us. Lol! Welcome back to the thread. So good to have you drop by. Been a while.

A DDA huh? :slide: It's a good day for the strains I love. :woohoo: You'll be very happy with that choice, I'm sure. Will you be posting on the DDA thread? :hugs:
 
Yeah, you've really spread the word on Carnival Sue! :cheesygrinsmiley: Have we heard from anyone yet who thought it was just meh? It's an unknown, unextolled strain, but nothing I've tried has the same easy buzzy comfortable high. And that flavor ... :Love:

Graytail, you were the impetus for this, I'm just the passionate one over here refusing to be quiet about what inspires me, and Carnival does just that. I haven't come across anyone yet that hasn't smoked it and sighed with relief. It's the good stuff, no doubt about it.

It thrills me to no end to see others get excited about Carnival. I can't believe it wasn't one of the more popular strains before I got so loud about it. But you and I know from experience, all the other strains are wonderful in their own way, but not a one of them is up to the quality I get with Carnival. It's my favorite all-round experience, even given the trippy DDAs I grow.

Thank you Graytail, for spotting it first. :kisstwo:
 
Well.... For a day I'd planned on being quiet it suddenly got real busy. :cheesygrinsmiley:

The fun started with moving CBD CC 2.1.1 into the finish tent.

That left room in the early tent to get CBD Critical Cure 2.2.1 flipped.

Then I rearranged the veg shelf to get everyone more centrally located under the lights.

Closed it up a little tighter too.

Cleaned up the lower reaches of the girls in the tiny closet....

Whew! Wasn't expecting the whirlwind of gardening I kinda fell into there. :laughtwo:
 
Wow! What strain is that little fatty with the broads leaves that's sitting apart from the other six?

I think that is Scott's Dark Side

I probably won't remember to post on the DDA thread, but I'm planning on starting a journal once they're above soil!

I've been alright, I hope you've been well!

I don't believe I've ever been this happy smokie. Quite a statement from a woman who had as much joy packed into her life as I. Then I fell into this world and it all amped up. :battingeyelashes: :Love:

Oh! You're just in time. I had an epiphany!

We all know that the best way to light what you're smoking in a bowl is using hemp wick. It eliminates the bite of the butane, like we ever needed to be inhaling butane to begin with. Lol!

Anyway, I was sitting here enjoying some of my best and most flavorful DDA, the 7th one, dried low and slo, and suddenly I had a flash of my late husband flicking out a match and I realized that the frustration of shaking that wick out was over.

Now first off, I have to share that I usually put the wick out by bumping it up against the glass bowl of my bong, something I learned to do by accident - light the bowl and then bump the flame out before you pull away.

But for those times when the thing keeps burning, or you're so high or distracted that you forget :battingeyelashes: you can flick it out by clicking your fingers.

I could feel Dale smile when I realized I'd known this all along. God, I loved that man. :laughtwo: Here he is touching my life in a positive way two years after he passed. Talk about joy. :Love:

I know right?? That thing has some serious leaves!!

Good call Lady A. That lovely specimen is the product of electro gypsy's new company. He'd be pleased as punch if one of you stopped by his journal and shared that enthusiasm. I was looking at it just a couple minutes ago. She is lovely.

You should get together with Twox and Electro Gypsy, they are both fully paid up members of the support group SSA (seed shoppers anonymous) they go to regular meeting where they discuss there addiction and ways to move forward. It doesn't work but they try. :passitleft:

It's a great place to sell seeds :laughtwo:

There you are. :hugs::hugs::hugs:

Have you seen those two Scott's Dark Slide I have growing? The hempy one is looking like one I'll need to transplant into something larger before long. :laughtwo:

Oh, I see you did. :cheesygrinsmiley:

I topped mine too lol. I never do that on a first run but it just seemed right this time. I shortened the name to just Dark Slide as to ease confusion with the father which is Scott's Dark Side. Dark Slide comes from Avalanche being the mother (har har) so there will likely be an entire Slide series based on Ava'. She's just flat out bomb and I'm almost being threatened into breeding it lol. Like most of the best strains she's a skimpy thing as for production so I'll be beefing her up with a list I have forming. I'm not sure the SDS will add beef but it's certainly not going to hurt the potency :)

Ok, I'll change the name to Dark Slide. :slide:

I wasn't planning to top them this run, but they kinda asked for it, and who am I to say no to the plant? :battingeyelashes:
 
I think we derailed SuperSues thread....lol

Some of us look for daily opportunities to derail any give thread. Sue's a common target.


Not possible, my friend. :hugs:

Yup.... not feelin one bit guilty.



If I didn't know better, you sound like you might be down in Cajun country Tead.

He's in New Orleans, hopefully my next perch, unless my dreams come true earlier, in which case I'm pretty certain I'll be shifting my residence to be with whomever he turns out to be. Lol!

Yeah I figured he was down in that area. I was stationed there from 94-98. You can keep that heat and humidity!! I did love the food though! What's their stance on cannabis?

Crawfish, drunken tourists, hurricanes (the drink and the weather!), and some ugly heat. Food's good. Folks are fun. Parties rock. Good music forms a backdrop to it all. Come on down.... we'll cook.
94-98... bad timing. I bet there are some stories under your belt regarding some very creative days. USN or USMC?
I grow in an outdoor tin shed directly in the NOLA sun and humidity.... can you even begin to imagine such a poor idea? Tead's insane... you know... the technical kind of insanity where you keep doing the same thing but expect different results.
Meh!



What's that dark brown stuff in those pots? Dirt? Really? How very interesting.
:slide:


I'm not a fan of starting plants in the foam cubes. They leave that dark ring on the top of the perlite that kinda scares me.
You need to stop using those plastic tags for names. They kinda fall out a lot. I often find one on the floor after a watering and have to go searching for it's home. Plus, your hempies look totally like mine and it's confusing me. I've got the white pvc tubes going and I've just been writing on the pot itself.

My friends and family think I'm crazy. Heirloom actually went out of his way to tell me that, in no uncertain terms, before he walked away from us. Lol! But I read that, and instead of being intimidated I get excited about the possibilities of new experiences wrapped in the warm blanket of friends and good music accompanied by some of what's accepted to be some of the finest cuisine in the country. Yeah.... Go ahead, call me crazy. I'm good with the label. :cheesygrinsmiley:

I place the tags directly above the drain hole to make it easier to align it over the sink. I water at the sink and let the runoff run down the drain. Easy-peasy, made easier by that visual cue.

And may I say, everytime I pluck a hempie from the tent and trot down the hall with it, holding it up so I can inspect it as I walk, I smile in contentment that I met you Tead, and that you've had such a profound and positive effect in my life. :hugs:

What scares you about the ring of brown left by the Rapid Rooters?? Do you have concerns there that I'd be well-advised to prepare for? I'd intended to try starting a seed directly in the perlite, and I may do just that this weekend, but I forgot with these.

Good morning everyone :Love:

A nice cloudy day, which frees me to leave the windows open, barring the bedroom, which has to be air conditioned to keep that finish tent from overheating. I'm getting better at remembering to turn it on first thing in the morning, and that's beginning to make a difference.

She looks happy. :cheesygrinsmiley:

Carnival and Candy Cane are starting to get thicker, much to my relief. All this time and I still get concerned that they'll falter at the end. :laughtwo:

Ahhh..... another glorious day filled with opportunity to demonstrate your capacity to love without condition. Sweet, eh? I appreciate the fact that each and every time I open the baby blues I can reach first for that joyful sensation of being playfully engaged with the cosmos, to deliberately set the tone of my day, and thereby positively effect the reality I'm creating.

It warms me to my toes to know that you are all part of the reality I chose to build. :hugs::hugs::hugs::hugs::hugs:

Now get out there and show the world what joy looks like in your daily expression. Amaze them with your brilliance and wit, the same way you do right here with us. :kisstwo:

Meh!

USMC. I was stationed down off Poland and Dauphine St (I think thats how its spelled). I did a whole lot of running down through NO. We used to run from the NSA all the way down and around the Superdome every Friday....11 to 13 miles depending on the route. I don't miss that heat and humidity, but man do I miss the food!!
