I try to flush my system daily with a few 12 oz Miller Lights. My meter won't go high enough to measure my ppm or pH, and my root.............well it dangles just fine.

:rofl::biglaugh::rofl: Still seeking moisture???? :biglaugh:
 
I agree, congrats on the job.

Roseman, when I had to go through drug court for a marijuana possession (felony, ouch!), I stopped using marijuana all together. It took 3 months for my urine to finally be clean, and the amount spiked several times over those 3 months by 20-30ng or whatever measurement they used. I wasn't even within proximity of any marijuana. I received several "sanctions" for this which consisted of 24 hrs, 48 hrs, and finally 72 hrs in jail for a total of three times. It was one of the most horrible events in my life, being treated like that when I wasn't even using (made me feel like a damn criminal, and if you knew me, that's so far from the truth....). I even tried doing research and presenting scientific studies backing my situation. The only problem is, 1 out of 7 scientific studies backed my story. The judge called me a liar and made me an example/laughing stock for all in attendance (I was polite through all of this, though it brought tears to my eyes later). I did learn one thing through that experience though. Acceptance. Also don't be bitter towards those who act against you.:grinjoint:


I hear you and I had a similar experience, too long to type it tho.

"Also don't be bitter towards those who act against you"

man, I learned that about 16 years ago. What will it get you to be bitter toward those who act against you? Nothing but bitter.

Jesus said:


in Matthew 5, vs 43:
"You have heard that it was said, 'Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.' But I tell you: Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, that you may be sons of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. If you love those who love you, what reward will you get? Are not even the tax collectors doing that? And if you greet only your brothers, what are you doing more than others? Do not even pagans do that?


I want to be more or better than a tax collector or a pagan, so I live by that.
 
By the way, a little off topic here. Anyone heard of Joe Bonamassa? If you like blues or jazz or anything in between, I really recommend giving this guy a listen. He's a somewhat younger Caucasian guy, but it's hard to tell that by listening.

I googled him and found him on youtube with Eric Clapton at Albert Hall and with Warren Haynes too. He is as good as it gets on blues guitar.
 
OK now for some info for me. My buddy in phoenix grows and when i send him pix he tells me i should trim my leaves so the rest can recieve light, but for some reason after i do i kinda feel like i might be shortin myself somehow in the long run. Now i dont know if i am or not but when i see "MOST" (Not all) of everyones plants they look so bushy and i would like to know if i should just stop doin it. Im uploadin just a couple pix now to show ya'll what i got goin and if im ok to just leave her be for a lil.

DO NOT CUT THEM.
IF you think they are blocking some lights, then get some paperclips and hold them back, if you insist on doing anything, but DO NOT CUT THE FAN LEAVES OFF.

IN MY HUMBLE OPINION, When a large FAN leaf starts yellowing, say it is half yellow, that means in the photosynthesis process, that leaf has ate nutrients, absorbed some LIGHT and made food for the plant and buds and NOW, half of that is gone, or used or consumed. Well, what about the other half? Can not it's energy still be used or consumed?
AND when it is ALL consumed or used, that leaf will naturally just fall off.

AND you say it is blocking LIGHT?
GREAT and GOOD, that means it is getting the LIGHT it needs and deserves more than the other leaves do, to do it's job, to make food and grow.


Years ago I tried removing lower fan leaves to allow more Light to penetrate in. When I did remove more than a couple, the plant went into shock for a day or two, and quit eating or only ate half as much, and just went on "stand by" mode. Then, after a day or two, suddenly I saw that big fan leaf replaced by a new leaf, and I saw my plant use the energy to replace that leaf and grow it back FAST to the size it was, more than it used that energy to grow the plant bigger and make more buds or bigger buds.

I now believe that removing fan leaves is pointless, and that a leaf has a purpose and will serve that purpose until it is dead. Then it will naturally fall off. You will have small and large lower leaves just naturally wilt and fall off daily.


Don't ever remove fan leaves before harvest for several reasons.

1. The fan leaves MAKE AND STORE energy for the plant. The fan leaves are doing a process called photosynthsis, and it is the most important part or task or job the plant does, to make it grow. They make the FOOD, the sugars and carbs needed to grow.

If you remove a FAN leaf, the plant will stop growing taller until it can replace that removed fan leaf.

Removing a healthy fan leaf is a big waste of time..they are rapided replaced, unless you are in the last 2 or 3 weeks of flowering.


2. Even if the fan leaves are yellowing in late bloom I do not remove them until they are almost ready to fall off. The yellowing in the fan leaves at late harvest is the plants metabolism at work. She is transferring all stored energy in the fan leaf to bud production. It is the easiest source of energy she has late in life. Let that leaf do its job.

The Wrong reasoning is like "I could run faster if I was lighter and weighted less, so I am going to cut my legs off".



From the Growers Bible by Jorge Cervantes:
Leave leaves alone! Removal of healthy leave hacks up a healthy plant. Removing large or shade leaves DOES NOT make plants more productive. This practice DOES NOT supply more light to smaller leaves and growing tips. Plants need all their leaves to produce the maximum amount of chlorophyll and food. Removing leaves slows chlorophyll production, stresses the plant, and stunts its growth. Stress is a growth inhibitor. Remove only dead leaves or leaves that are more than 50 percent damaged.
 
Hey roseman and olias Im about to be 23 and even i knew that lol my dad brought me up with that kind of music so i have a huge genre of music i listen too but i seen roger waters in concert back in like 02 i wanna say in phoenix
 
Very nicely put roseman really broke it down and explained it to a point in which a newbie like me can understand i will no longer do it. Now the papper clip do you think that is necassary cause im not to sure on what you mean by hold it back do i clip onto the leaves stem then clip back to another? If i dont need papper cleips then i am fine and will deff leave it from here on out thank you so much
 
Yep, thats a fact.

I used to wake up in the morning, look down and sing How graet thou art!

Now I wake up in the morning, look down at it and sing PRECIOUS MEMORIES!

I can't look at mine for more than about two seconds without cracking up. It looks like a dick but smaller:biglaugh::peace:
