Welcome To My New Journal - OMMSOG

[OldMedMan]

That's great news about the biopsy, glad he got it all off. Yeah, that's the name of my journal but I don't know what the hell is going on with the link. I used the guide that Astonr420 provided which worked before. Some of my other links stopped working too. I will correct this later on, have to go out and run a few errands. I am using Chrome for my browser.

Hi Queen,,,,believe me, I understand. One of these days, I'm going put some of my old grow links up. I'll probably get THsea to help me with it. I use Opera Browser.

OMM i am sorrry but u NEED to visit my journal and bring some love/conversation over there!
I find myself always in here sometimes i neglect mine!

hahahahahaha

but this is where all the good info is.. cant wait to try that cure process.. i gotta about a week til it happens! i was really considering low humidity 40-50% to dry.. but this seems much bettter!

SpiriTHC When I first started it was the same for me......I'll come over and keep you company.....Maybe some other folk will take a look too!

Well, I did visit your journal SpiriTHC....and....peoples You really should take a look, it's an amazing grow!

I am just wondering, what is the least amount of time you can cure and have some good smoke? I noticed someone say they cured for months. I am not sure I could wait that long unless I was growing helluva plants. Is the cigar shop the only place you can find a decent hygrometer? I have tried looking on the bay but didn't see any. I still have to check out Zon, to see if they have any.

Hey Queen...look in Alaska1's Journal....I just posted a link to them in his journal.!


I posted it later in this journal too!

sandy's is no place to mess with if its big
i used to love going there
now i usually just freedive in the bay for tako(octopus) or stay on the water with my boat lol
one day i was there with friends this is when i was a teen very long ago
my friend acted like he was gonna take off on a set was about 4-7 ft that day this is back when they went by the back of the wave height not the face, old school hawaiian style of measuring waves, now they measure the face cause alot of tourist got into trouble thinking it was small only to thier suprprise lol, cause the back is usually half the height of the face, anywho so my firend acted like he was gonna take off it was a 7 ft set(remember this is back height of the wave) he turned around and tried to swim back we saw him going backwards
trying to get back to us outside and over the falls he went lol, bam he hit and came flying up mind you this is no small light guy he was easy 180-200 lbs then we dont see him for a bit the backwash off the shoreline hits the wave and we see him come flying up into the air again then bam hits the water again, after that we notice him sitting on the beach glad he was ok but he took a beating lol, he is no longer with us, i miss him and he died at a young age of 30.
if any of you have seen sandy's when its really big you know what im talking about, so cf if you ever go there be careful.
on another note when tourists chicks go there they dont have any concept of the power of the shorebreak there and they wear 2 piece bikinis, guess what happens when they get pounded by a wave?
sometimes they come out with not top lol sometimes no top or bottom lol
chicks that know the shorebreak there wear one piece or even a shirt over thier bikini top and shorts with drawstrings, even dude gotta make sure they got shorts that wont come off cause there even have been dudes who lose thier shorts lol
ok just wanted to fill you in on that spot cf in case you go there

Listen to this man.......wish I had known him back when I was learning the hard way! In fact he was probably one of the guys that laughed at me!

Never a dull moment. I've been busy sorting things out around here and just now have some time on my hands to see whats up.

Considering the curing processes Vapedogg and MSquared use, but I might have a problem. The rental house I live in has a constant humidity of at least 45% sometimes hitting 68% and worse when it rains for days on end.

So how would I adjust the cure some this problem?
Im looking at about 2 months before I can cure depending on how flowering goes.

Desiccant packets help remove excess moisture, but I wouldn't use them unless it's ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY. I get mine out of the beef jerky I buy, y'know, they say "DO NOT EAT" on the outside of them. But I think one can buy just the packets somewhere.

 

[OldMedMan]

This is damn near the EXACT method I use for my cure. Hang'em till they snap, then straight into jars for curing. and almost exactly the same intervals. Great minds.......

Well, if both of you are doing nearly the same thing......That's good enough for me! Thanks to you Both!

I 'try' to cure mine at least a month, here lately though it hasn't been making it that far. Most is about three weeks. I like the nice mellow, smooth, flavor and inhale of a nicely cure bud. To me if it's quick dried, I get the hack... I hate that... sends my migraines into overdrive.

 

[OldMedMan]

Isnt that whats called the pipe line or just the pipe?like 30 foot waves?

Hi fish cake.....close...but.....The PipeLine is at the other end of the island...where the Monster waves come in. Not for the likes of me. Lots of Pros out there.

 

[OldMedMan]

I just hope when my shorts fall off I don't have a big Stiffy!! That could get me in even bigger trouble!! I just love looking at women with no clothes on!! LoL!!

Now..Now...your a happily married man......But it is hard not to look!

 

[jandre2k3]

I guess I would consider myself a freedom activist! But very little chaps me more than being lied to by our government!



I'm sending all the positive thoughts I can muster your way my friend!

Thank You my friend

You have a long hill to climb then, our Government has been lying to us a long time, "for our own good".

Home Land Security has the right to do anything they want to. The end of freedom stopped on 9/11.

So much for Freedom by the people, for the people. Our own apathy let this happen. Depressing isn't it?

The WORST is what they tell us when they're busted red-handed. "At the time it was considered to be in the public's best interest, in order to keep people from panicking."

I hate being lied to, ESPECIALLY if it is for my own good. I'd rather hear the truth and make a change based on that truth, rather than thinking everything is shiny and good. FUCKING TELL ME THE TRUTH DAMNIT!

Okay, maybe the "F" bomb was a bit much, but it's exactly how I feel, so there is no remorse in saying it.

Watching the Venus transit and thought of you..

Out there Huh?

 

[jandre2k3]

You're absolutely right! The quick answer on price is costs...It's estimated that the average cost today to discover a compound, bring it through all the development, testing, trials, and eventually to market is $400 million, but can rise to over $1 billion, and can take over 10 years to get there.

The FDA has an incestuous relationship with the big pharmaceutical companies. It lets them corner the market by discouraging any new companies entering the market by shear cost of the clinical trials, which run between $100 and $800 million per drug candidate...and in return that money is fed back into the bureaucracy. It's a giant circle...well you know what it is...and after all that we can't even get drugs that won't kill AT LEAST 100,000 people every year?

Sorry...I'm done now!

TELL IT Brother Vape! Tell it!

 

[jandre2k3]

How can you cheat at NOTM? lol

posting someone elses pic of a nug you've never seen, and then create multiple accounts so you can vote on that nug to make yourself win. And then you get caught, title stripped, prize pack revoked, and banned from any further competition. Serves that ..... I'll not got there. I'm still pretty pissed at that one.

Hi Vapedogg223

When I first started growing I did almost the same thing too. Then, I read too much and was confused for while, however jars and humidity reading has always been part of my drying routine.

 

[Kushwestcoast]

hey, things are looking well.

I have no problem quick drying some strains.....Lucy comes to mind, I think she is one of those strains that is good
from the very start and gets better with a long cure. The Church is too. Your not getting the full effect, but you don't notice it much.

Hi seagem

It doesn't matter at all what the H is in the house. Your controlling the H yourself with in the jars.

Here is a link to what you need.

Digital LCD Temperature -40°c -70°c Humidity 10% RH-95% Hygrometer Thermometer | eBay

Remember, you can ad orange peels or leaves to raise the H and lower it by spreading your buds out on a table, not letting them touch each other. After all you are shooting for that magic 67% H in your jars. Even a small fan will help will help lowering ....but not too much fan.
