Guess who's back
Howdy folks, how you all been? Sorry I disappeared for a while, but it was necessary.
Killing my plants was one of the hardest thing I ever had to do, but it was probably the right thing to do.
The time chronicled in my posts here was a time of happiness and heart break and even terror at times. Where do I begin?
First off, I started my first flower on 4/20/09. That was the day after a friend of mine died right in front of me..... That set the tone for everything to follow.
I was depressed most of the whole time I was growing and just ignored it until I couldn't any longer. Eventually I reached the place where my grow was so fucked up and my life so out of order that I HAD to quit.
I had everything go wrong that could go wrong. The cab of drams turned into a nightmare sad to say.
Besides problems with my plants (due only to my neglect) I got pulled over with a bunch of gear and got grilled for 30 min by these dick cops. They wrote down my name and let me go, but it scared the shit out of me and led me to shut things down.
I also got robbed... twice. Guns stolen, plants stolen, cash stolen, laptops stolen, over 1/2 lb of reggie stolen. That was fucking devestating and infuriating at the same time. Good news though, I found the little bitch who did it and beat him so bad that he had to go the the doctor for pain meds. I made that bitch scream.
All the bad shit happened because I broke some simple rules: Don't associate with douche bags, Don't carry all your grow gear at once, and Don't grow for the wrong reasons.
You see I was growing for greed and quantity, not love and quality. I want both, but now I come back to this with a desire to grow the best I can. Yields will follow.
This all hit me one night a few weeks ago after I bought a sack from this guy. It was the worst weed I ever had in my life. I said to myself "Dude you gotta get back to it, you can't keep paying money for shit weed."
I've found a better connect but still, you can't beat homegrown. So I cleaned out the old office and I'm now working with a blank slate.
I'll be doing the gravity water system in my closet. I just need to figure a good way of sealing the closet off and get the ventilation in order. I'll be doing a perpetual grow in smaller containers, probably the XL cups from Circle K. Most likely, I'll be using my trusty 400w HPS.
ALL IN ALL, this could have went way worse for me. I'm so glad it didn't. Learn from my mistakes kids I know we like to make 'em ourselves to really learn the lesson, but save yourself the hassle.
Once again, stay up and stay safe.
Peace,
White
p.s. It might be about a month before I'm rolling, f.y.i.
