Hey guys thanks for the rep! I try to grow my peeps the best stuff! I have spent more on my grow rooms then I will ever make back... The funny thing is all my peeps have the same medical problem as me so I relate to them, and end up just saying here take it, give me what you can. Some are on disability through no fault of their own...

A patient of mine on disability has had 17 surgeries on his back, Nam vet been through hell on many levels... He was in a bad place yesterday, came over I could tell something was wrong, known him since I was 16 I'm a little older now LOL... He asked you my caregiver? I said yep you know that... He ended up pouring out his soul just built up crap... Ya know? Broke fucking down both of us... Ended up drinking a 12 pack of fat tire, smoked the hell out out, made some killer burger's beans and coleslaw talked long into the night, made up the extra bed for him...

Yes I am my brother's keeper, and I hope he is mine... Peace and puffs

Dude, that is fucking awesome, you really came through for him!

Mad respect brother, MAD respect. :tiphat:

:wave:

Tripsick, looking great! :yes:

I'm going to have to try SAGE.. I hear it yields very well. I smoked some awhile back from B.A.M. about a year ago and it wasn't bad.

Mule, you the man. I have a small setup. I know how you feel about your bud, although I am younger I have many Nam vet friends that I have gotten to know over the past 6 years of my residency ( is that even a word? sorry had a few highlifes tonight) I am the same way, I have personal goals of how much I want to yeild, but I expect not to get rich off of this, I love the fact I CAN grow, and that I am legal. Sometimes I feel that this should be legal and that way we can all meet on a sunday or something and trade ozs! I am sure that would suck for those that are doing this for a living, but I have refused a few offers to work as a grower. I prefer it to be my own little, yet expensive hobby!

TRIP! I cant wait for my chiesel to start filling up the screen so I can throw her into flower!! Got plenty of room for her! Buying a new super sun 2 hood to house my 400, so I will have a 600w and a 400 watt. CANT wait, she looks amazing! What are you using again for nutes? Just finished watering my girls with the poop tea I have been brewing.....stinks so bad, I may start just top dressing...I dont know....

Either way, everyone keep up the good work!!!

Ace

dont ban be for saying "trade"!!! ahahaha that is a futuristic term in the aspect of legalization...once again, highlifes.

NO trading!

NO trading!

FAIR WARNING!

Trading, swapping, selling ANYTHING violates Article 7 of the TOU! Such behavior will see you banned! Don't do it, don't talk about it, don't joke about it. The TOU has been revised largely for this very reason and the hammer WILL be coming down.
 
Open swapping of ANYTHING in the forums is a strict no-no.

Well technically you broke one of your own TOU by telling us this. In the TOU #9, it states, "we do not justify our bans to the general membership."

Practice what is preached... Or lift the ban on GREENMOPHO!!! He had good input in this thread, I feel like you guys are being NAZIS. Humans make mistakes.

I only cruise this forum for this thread and you just banned one of the most active posters in here. ICMag ftl right now.

Well, technically, you're lying. I justified nothing. I pointed you to the rules. Fascism is about locking everyone else out. We're trying to include everyone, PROVIDED they honor their word and follow the rules. Even the most democratic societies have rules.

I agree with your rules and you have every right to ban him, but please reinstate mopho, I'm sure he won't make the same mistake again. I know you need to enforce the rules but I think he deserves a 2nd chance. Also, we just started a group for CO breeders and he formed it so now we can't control the group and we will all have to go elsewhere for this purpose if he can't be included and we can't send invites, etc....

Not to break my own arm here... My bro who owns more then one dispensary in Co bought all my hydro overstock and sold it out in hours,,, not talking a couple zips dig... It's too fucking bad with 1284 we don't have a chance now to say "hey I just dropped this weed at this store check me out"...

I care more about that we all CAN grow! Soil or hydro makes 2 shits to me... I do both the with big NO NO in the same room OMG... I dig it when people have fun growing! You got it going on man!

nice pics, and I agree good weed is good weed the system is secondary.

I just recently decided to re-use my soil after spending the cash on mixing up the Moonshine Mix, which worked well, but nothing out of the ordinary. I keep all my old soil in a large plastic bin. I add 60% recycled soil to 20% new soil, then the rest is made up of perlite, EWC, peace of mind, and guano. I feed with guano teas and molasses. I am still experimenting with these, I like them, but they stink.

I figure every spring when I rotatill my garden I will take all the old soil at that time and till it into the garden, makes sense to me!

I wouldn't throw it all away, maybe keep 50%.... it contains beneficial microbial life so starting with fresh soil is really a step backward. You can keep on reusing it indefinitely, every few years you need to add more perlite and some fresh peat but it'll go years just like it is.

Interesting observation. I'll check into this but, it may be a casualty of Article 9.

In the meantime there's the Colorado Growers and Med Users group run by nattynattygurl

I'm going to do a auto watering system via a pvc manifold like this one

Question.. Does anyone know a good dripper/dripring etc that would be able to attach to the black tubing and have a fast flow rate? I'd like to plug my bucket full of water/nutes into the manifold for each row and pump 5 gallons through in just a few minutes. All the drippers I've found only flow like 1gph.


Thanks in advance!

the 1gph is a standard flow rate for most irrigation equipment. look at rain bird irrigation systems they may have what you are looking for. also greenhouse growers supply.

i'm a fan of drip baskets. control the flow rate using a timer. the way the baskets work, adds additional O2. before settling on these, i've tried all the damn 0.5gph, 1 gph, 2gph, didn't like any of them, they all have very small openings, which are easily clogged, and don't even think about using any ferts with any amount of organic material, the control flow drip heads can't handle it (ime).

i can't give ya rep now...but nice work on the vert!

Hey bro :wave: I would think using barbed tees, and the same size of hose that is attached to the manifold,you could make a ring that fits your pots, and drill 1/4" holes on the bottom facing the soil. I'd imagine it'd fit your needs quite well, wouldn't clog, and would be pretty cheap to boot. :ying:

Hope that helps! :artist:
