Sweetsue's Tiny Closet - Second Grow - Sweet Dark Devil & Bomb Berry Bomb - CFL - LED

Re: Sweetsue's Tiny Closet - Second Grow - Sweet Dark Devil & Bomb Berry Bomb - CFL -

I like the idea of low temps. I've begun to consider how the effect is modulated by the overly hot flame hitting it from a lighter. Not to mention my growing concern about butane. Yeah, after 39 years I'm going to begin worrying about the butane. What have you people done to me? :laughtwo:

Aki, I've decided to explore the world of actual "Cultivation" as Doc so pleasantly describes it. If you notice, my transplants will be done DrZiggy style with minimal disruption but maximal effect, and the salts - again so wonderfully explained by Doc - are naturally occurring, and used with control. We're looking for the happy medium we suspect may well lie between the two approaches, to be able to offer more variation to the organic gardening tune. At the very least we'll demonstrate some new ways to tweak the soils. Everyone gets more choices to get to the same end - high quality meds, grown organically and with minimal effort.

I just got home and must put groceries away, but when I get back, let's open this one up.

It's like Christmas every day. :laughtwo::green_heart:

Its tip is made of 25w Ceramic Heating Element.. Dunno how hot it gets but it does burnm the hell out of your skin... I have definitely touched it a few times on accident haha :rofl: :rofl: But that comes with the territory. I love it so much, I will use it until it breaks, and then I will immediately get another :cheesygrinsmiley: Once it's wireless it will be literally perfect.

I do as much as I can until my eyes can't focus then its all hers, "she has to have it trimmed just so" anyway. My trimming is never up to what she would like as a standard lol. :) I do the cloning, the seeding, the transplanting, the nutes(I know I'm not a LOS or HiBrix, yet) the rotating, for the veg and the bloom throughout, oh yeah the water lugging downstairs in the 7 gal containers, we don't have a faucet in the unfinished basement. I keep saying I'm gonna put in a faucet and use this 35 gal tank that we have, and bubble it with the bubbler that we have too but I keep filling these 7 gal aquatainers made for camping. :reading420magazine: :hmmmm: I have sweated pipe before what am I waiting on...its been three years now.
Anyway She likes the trimming part too, it gets painful for me but I try for a while :Love:

I admire that your wife is such a connoisseur when it comes to grow and trim. My wife is legally blind so I am on my own with the grow. I schlep it all. I can give her bongs of sugar leaf and she will not figure it out...lol Nah, I wouldn't do that. I never underestimate the awareness of my wife's nose. HEr Glaucoma was a big selling factor in her letting me do this in the house.

She does love the harvest stage. I have to snatch the branches away from her to trim them as she loves the fresh smell. I totally admire women that are into this hobby as much as I. Sweet Sue being one, of course.
 
Re: Sweetsue's Tiny Closet - Second Grow - Sweet Dark Devil & Bomb Berry Bomb - CFL -

You both had me laughing right out loud. "...sugar leaves" :rofl:

420Pursuit, if you're out there - I cried. Tears of joy, but impossible to hold back. Let me unpack.
 
Re: Sweetsue's Tiny Closet - Second Grow - Sweet Dark Devil & Bomb Berry Bomb - CFL -

On April 1, the day we found out I was honored with the title MOTM, 420Pursuit contacted me about expanding my grow space into something he believed would be more appropriate. Seemed he was upgrading from his 4x4' tent to a 4x8'. Having no need for the old tent he thought of me. This generous man, who unfortunately has gone on 'vacation' (Sigh), packed up the old one and shipped it off to me.

I am deeply touched by the generosity of the gesture and the faith he expressed in my ability to make this tent burst with life.

I'm disappointed he won't be around to watch the magic of future harvests. He gave me a way to contact him, so I'll be sure to keep him updated. Now I need to make him proud. I'll certainly give it my best effort. Let's see what the box holds.

This was when I started laughing and couldn't stop. Unbelievably overwhelmed by this generosity. Just overwhelmed.

Now I need to make room for it. It will go into this corner, but first everything you see here must be moved....

... and before that can happen, everything here must be moved.

Please overlook the mess. Our lives have been in total disruption for over a year, running from critical surgery to critical surgery, and housekeeping is the least of my concerns, although that has to change and go back to improved containment of our "stuff" when Dale comes home. We use every bit of the available space in this small apartment. The far end of the room is Dale's workspace for trains and ships in bottles. Tools, supplies and equipment he hasn't really been able to use in over a year.

I have some serious work to get done. I'm thinking two days, non-stop. The reward of a steady supply of meds for my family is worth the investment in time and sweat. Just wait until you see the transformation.

And so it begins. I am sooooo stoked right now. :slide:

:laughtwo::green_heart:

PS: I had to share a little more joy from the day. I was waiting for a bus tonight and ran into a dear friend I hadn't seen in months. She was the one who wisely introduced Dale and I to each other. She knew from the beginning we were meant to be. We share the same surname and a deep fondness for each other that has never faded. We went to dinner together, laughing about our children and catching up as quickly as we could before life separated us again. I haven't taken time to socialize with any friends in more than a year. It was blissful.

A good day all around. :Love:

Thats hilarious LMAO - well timed, You and Rad can throw out some good ones to laugh at for sure :)
Yeah I don't use it much compared to her, I have issues - paranoia and that feeling that I ain't breathing right etc. My Psychiatrist says I'm in a 7% population that can't deal with it, I still do it but very limited I have a severe ADHD which makes me alert to the tiny stimulus like that crick noise...oops...I mean the click noise down the hallway through the wall, across the roof and to the left by the downspout when its not raining outside. :slide: Did I finish? what am I saying?

I love that quote in your signature, xtrchessreal. The story of my life I guess. I just didn't know it till I read that just now, Lol. Oh well....
My signature's the story of my grow life.

She is such a lucky woman to share her life with you. God, you make me laugh so freely!
 
Re: Sweetsue's Tiny Closet - Second Grow - Sweet Dark Devil & Bomb Berry Bomb - CFL -

Awesome news about the tent Sue - we have a similar situation here with the moving things around. Its so bad I end up talking myself into circles - which is a thing with ADHD, always preparing but never getting it done...ugh Anyway good things happening for you, so nice, you deserve some pleasantries. :)
 
Re: Sweetsue's Tiny Closet - Second Grow - Sweet Dark Devil & Bomb Berry Bomb - CFL -

One of my challenges is Dale. If I take him enough buds to get by for two days he'll eat them all within an hour, have a rip-roarin' day and call me the next day for more. LOL! Maybe just go without for a couple days. Not me - him. I'm not going without. :laughtwo:

Well what ever you bring it in, just bring two of and don't let him in on it until later :)
 
Re: Sweetsue's Tiny Closet - Second Grow - Sweet Dark Devil & Bomb Berry Bomb - CFL -

Good idea. Call him and tell him where to find it. Brilliant!
 
Re: Sweetsue's Tiny Closet - Second Grow - Sweet Dark Devil & Bomb Berry Bomb - CFL -

Big appointment in the morning. We've had to cancel his eye exams because of back-to-back-to-back surgeries three times. He was borderline cataracts when this all began and his glaucoma pressures haven't been checked in months and months. Please let this be a non-event. We already have an angioplasty next week. Just a little break. That's all we ask.

The insurance company wants to cut him off. Not enough progress to justify the expenditure in their minds. Another battle for me to take on. This one includes convincing an unyielding doctor to ok his training for the prosthetic leg. The leg is ready, vascular surgery is on board and the physical therapist thinks two weeks with the leg and he'd be home. This doctor is just playing God. Without his support here we're back to square one.

Tomorrow will take my best effort. Wish me luck.

Best get my butt to bed. Tomorrow all.
 
Re: Sweetsue's Tiny Closet - Second Grow - Sweet Dark Devil & Bomb Berry Bomb - CFL -

best wishes and our thoughts will be with both of you.
