Happy SunDay!!!
Short Story: I’m marking this journal as completed.

Long Story: I’m an OCD type 💯. Once I find a system I commit. Hence my harvest pics, my final weight pics and my Sunday Summary/HumpDay updates. No matter what I have going on, I allot time and I commit to the task. I have chosen not to allot time for the last 2 weeks and omg it’s been so freeing lol!

In that time I’ve realised journaling and showcasing plants is not a task I need to commit to. I’m nobody. I’m just an another faceless grower, just another poster. This isn’t my business. I’m not financially benefitted from posting, I don’t need to showcase or make this work for myself. I have a job, this is meant to be a hobby not a responsibility lol. It really took work to put all those plants together twice a week. That Sunday Summary after my nightshift used to nearly kill me each fortnight lol. So I’m gonna dial right back to a more manageable way of journaling. I harvested my GMO yesterday and omg it was so nice just to take a gamble and harvest without all the pics and trying to get good glitter, wet nug shots. Just setting up the macro is a job in itself!

I do love to journal, and I do like an overshare so I’m going to focus on growing with one journal showcasing one plant that has sponsored genetics and sponsored nutes. And I can overshare in my off topic thread.

To everyone who has contributed to this thread since I stumbled into this site a complete grow noob 4 years ago, thankyou so much! I have made such great friendships. Friendships that will come with me wherever I go.

If you are a lurker who likes my grow style, hopefully you will come with me to my downsized journaling style. But if not, thanks for following to this point.


And I’ll see you later for an update :)


And @Mike Wright please mark this journal as completed :)
Totally get it. When I first started these journals (and you can see below how many I've made!) It was both for my own record which I had hoped to review and go back to when growing later plants, but I generally have barely gone back to read them. After I almost got caught by the landlord and had to quit growing for over year it was very freeing but I missed it too. Getting back into it when I moved to my new house was cool, and then things went to shit last year with my kitty and my son dying and I didn't feel like writing or doing much at all. I've been drinking way too much and generally not taking care of myself and that needs to stop. Stopping drinking is gonna be hard. I haven't gone more than a couple weeks dry for the last few decades and I'm sure it's not good for me. I'll follow your new journals as they arrive, looking forward to it.
 
I always enjoyed your oversharing, i think its a vulnerable place people enjoy, its freeing to express ourselves without judgement. I have always said too much, did too much and thought too much, wouldn’t do it any other way. Im looking forward to your future grows❤️

In retirement i play my bass guitar, go to lessons weekly, and im setting up a recording space in my basement, i love growing weed, and now have the time to read, its a balance to keep everything in check, glad ur doing some self care and taking some time to smell the roses 🌹
