I bet nobody wanted to swipe his bike... at least not without a good seat cleaning.

Just starting to show a touch of sugar.

Always makes my heart beat a little faster to notice trichomes rising up off the leaf surface.

Let's take a peek at some clones tonight....
This one is a few weeks old and seems to be getting her feet wet finally. They really speed up when the roots hit the bottom of the hempy bucket. She's getting Dyna-Gro nutes somewhere in the 700ppm range. She had some really good roots when I put her in the bucket. I'm digging both her coloring and her growth rate.
Here's a shot of both my clones/vegging girls. The girl on the left is the one above, and the girl on the right is about 1.5 weeks behind her and didn't have as well developed roots when I sank her in the mix.
Temps in the veg tent get a touch higher than the bloom room. The thermostat controlling it all is in the bloom room, so sometimes it gets up to ~90f in there during the evening when the lights in the bloom room are off and the AC isn't working as hard. I'd like to turn on some more lights in there, but heat is always the challenge.
For that matter, I'd love to run the bloom room lights at night, but there is some light escaping and that would call every bug for miles directly toward the bloom room. I have a design in mind that would move the light lower down into the bloom room and might enable lights at night.
Overall... things are looking pretty damn good. Waiting from my re-shipment from Herbie's to arrive... maybe in about a week. I'm convinced that the package was not intercepted... our mail courier just sux.... I often get my neighbor's mail from the street over and I miss a bill or two every week. Recently, my birth certificate didn't make it back to me after I handed it over to the passport folks... I'm still not amused.

Losing a birth certificate'd make me a little nervous. I think I'd be rather unhappy about that one. Stay alert to anything wonky.

Those long thick pistils remind me of SweetSue's Dark Devil Autos. It's a striking look when they get going a little more
Sorry about your mail woes. You live in a city full of challenges.

Yes.... worrisome. I feel it's just the latest victim in a many-year problem. Of course, complaining to the local USPS office has been utterly pointless. I tried to exercise their online complaint system once and it's all form-driven and lacks the "My local postal carrier is just not doing their job!" option on the form. A touch incredible.
Meh!
Amen. I toss this one into the "pluses and minuses" pile and just move on. I didn't see an option on my seed order to have it delivered via UPS or FedEx... but I'll sure look for that option in the future for such things and take it out of the unreliable hands of the USPS. I even kind of feel sorry for the folks at Herbie's having to deal with my local woes.
On a completely different subject, Tead's been straight up dry for about 2 weeks now. Not a touch since I cleaned out the grinders.
Dreams are back. Not startling or anything... but it is odd to have them again. Last night I was a mango harvester... climbing trees and picking fruit from the trees. Where that came from I have no idea. Funny.
My sleeping hours have increased from about 6/night to about 8/night. This was unexpected. Neither a plus or a minus... just surprising.
I've been somewhat less happy all around... but not too bad really.
Strange days all around. It's been many years since I've been dry.

Man... the skies are opening up in the afternoons lately. It's a common weather pattern. So many snails roaming the lawn that it crunches when I walk on it.
Tead's been fielding a good many phone calls regarding a rental I have. Geez I hate dealing with the public at large. Idiots for the most part. Good that it's generating so much interest tho... I'm sure I'll have it rented quickly. Gotta get one of the bathrooms finished tho. Sure wish I had some smoke on hand to buffer the idiots but my current bud are way too small to provide any significant joy.

The streets aren't overflowing with good dope, and dispensaries on every block these days?
(Personally I'd never heard of a 'dispensary' before I joined 420, and the streets here (both of them) aren't exactly awash in good bud either, but sometimes I think many parts of the outside world are sounding....pretty well supplied ( no?) )

Not so much in The Big Easy... but we did manage to pass a MMJ bill the other day. We'll see how that plays out. I have very little faith in the local politicians and gov. agencies with their hands in the mix. Time will tell.
No kidding. Well... Good luck with the idiots. You are not alone (even if you wish you were)
Yeah, they passed a law here in PA too and then promptly f'd it up with complications that'll take two years to get up and running. I mean, what were they doing for the two years this fought its way to the top of the pile? That's as crazy as doctors in states going legal and not taking any advance time to learn about cannabis. If you're a doctor and your state is leaning towards legalization you should be all over educational services before they vote. Or is that just me? 
Tead, it breaks my heart that you're without. Hang in there my friend. Better days are ahead. When's the next harvest? If my BIL gets kicked from the building I'll stay in my apartment and wait him out. That means I'll for sure go dry before my next harvest. You'd think we could get this formula to work better for us, wouldn't you?
Talented cultivators incapable of keeping a steady supply. Where's the key to Graytail's vault when you need it? Lol!

And a second bill last week that decriminalized posession of medical marijuana Louisiana Medical Marijuana Patients Protected From Prosecution
Plus I hear they filled in sinkhole-de-mayo this week
BUT
As Sue pointed out, your state will wait 18 months to 2 years while they craft the legal cages and build the corporate grow sites and sales offices to keep this medicinal spice from being grown and used freely and openly in peoples yards, houses, and backyard sheds
We lucked out in Massachusetts, personal medical grows are declared legal, unregistered, and unmonitored while the corporate dispensary structure is being erected. By the time my grow becomes state unlawful, I'll be out of here

Oh yeah... I saw the filled in hole on my morning journeys. Apparently the project to fix it came in under budget and ahead of schedule. Slightly more than miraculous!

So.... I wanted to take a moment to talk about some side effects of not being stoned 24/7 like I've been doing for the last many years.
Dreams are back. They didn't "come back with a vengeance" like I expected. They slid in rather nicely with nothing disturbing.
Appetite is way up... maybe approaching doubled. Odd.
Sleep has changed. I was sleeping about 6hr/night. Now, I'm up to a solid 8 and feel like I could sleep more. Surprising. I would have expected it to go the other way.
There seems to be some (sorry folks) constipation issues. This kind of doesn't make much sense really... but hey, it's another symptom.
I don't seem to be short tempered or anything. My wife tells me I have not turned into an ass.... any more than normal that is.
Life does seem to be a bit rougher around the edges, but that would be expected.
While I sure look forward to the return of herb into my life, nothing is overwhelming at all. All in all, not a horrible experience.
Just wanted to put a report in print.

This part of the sentence should bring with it a crumb of 'hope', I guess... But it's more the uneasy kind of bittersweet hope that I imagine a prisoner would feel, when a little ray of sunshine finds it's way down, angles through the bars in the window and hits the floor for a minute.
Bastards...

Indeed. Luvin the prisoner analogy. One must enjoy the ray of light while it's there tho. I can only hope some rays of light show up in our neck of the woods.
So... I'm digging thru another grower's thread... and I run across the standard "Don't forget to vote" words.... and I go to vote.
My name is up there! WTF.... I mean... I'm honored and humbled of course, but really I've been mostly AWOL lately. I'm shocked!
Everyone should vote of course. I actually voted for someone other than myself just because I might feel it's just not quite proper to vote one's self.
So yea... go vote.
Is this a nominated affair? One wonders who might have tossed my hat in the ring... but some mysteries are better left mysterious.
Thanks Y'all.... I could sure use a goody pack!

It's not been all that bad actually. I've been very pleased really. I was living in a bit of fear as I was nearing the end of my supply.
I think I was more worried just because it's been SO damn long. But really, it's just not bothering me so much.
I am sharing your anticipation of that first hit tho... should be awesome!
It seems all my local buddies with weed are out as well... nobody has stepped up to the plate and passed a joint dammit!
