Each one of those plants is good for what...at least a pound or two of dried knock you on your ass with one hit bud?

I'd want to keep it all for myself.

*UCK!

*UCK!

YESTERDAY, I FELL OFF OF THE FREAKING 10' LADDER! FUCK!

Damn near broke my ass. I was at the top of that *ucking ladder, and all of a sudden, the "third leg" sunk into a soft spot! Just dropped about 6", bucked me off like a horse!

I broke 3 big branches off one WW.

I hit the ground HARD. I got bruises in places I didn't know I had! My left ass cheek is a solid purple bruise, both elbows, my right knee, and assorted other places.

And, I did it right in front of my wife! FUCK, FUCK!
The worse thing possible. Take a good look people, these are probably my last "TREES".

Other than that, everything is doing fine

FUCK

Yes, I had wind problems this year. When the wind hit 40mph, it blew the top loose along the back. But that was 40mph! The sunscreen mesh walls, let the air blow thru. I've straped a concrete block to all 8 legs, this thing ain't going anywhere.

However I do intend to cover it with Solexx next year, secured with screws & washers.

peace

thank you for the response,
i am currently trying to find one of these but none of my local costcos seem to have them.

i hope i didnt miss out. it seems like $189 is a pretty good deal for that frame.

i couldnt find them online either.

either way your grow is awesome!

respect +

Thanks, I'll try not to screw it up any more, between now & harvest.

I just can't believe I broke the WW like that. I've been growing these plants for 8 months and now I did this!

Probable torn Meniscus!

Probable torn Meniscus!

Well, the diagnosis is probable torn Meniscus in the right knee. I am currently waiting for a call from the Orthopedic Surgeon. Try explaining this one to your HMO!

The plants are all doing great, here's a pic from today

peace

P.S. The good news is that I actually heard my wife tell the nurse, "I saw it happen, it wasn't his fault". Did I hear that right? This gives me just the slightest hope, for trees next year! That's right she let me hear her say "it wasn't his fault":dance013:
As soon as I heal-up, I'm getting right back on that ladder!

Sorry to hear about your accident, jj. I hope they don't have to do any surgery on you, but if they do I hope you heal quickly. Sucks about that ww too, but at least you can look at it like the plant saved you from breaking your ass even worse than you did. Heh.

Take note everyone: Growing trees isn't for the faint of heart!

You'll be back on that ladder in no time. Heal well, jj!

consider yourself lucky with that fall. It may not seem that way but a work assosicate fell at home and broke his back. I'm sure karma pushed him off that ladder. He is a poop-head with a touch of bipolarbearness. He is back to "Normal" for him but was out 6-8 weeks. No matter how much it hurts, it could have been worse.

Wishing you well in your recovery. -Joe

Before you climb up that ladder again please place a piece of plywood under the feet so that they sink into the ground.
We all are looking forward to see you complete this harvest.

Take care of that knee.

Thanks for all the kind words. I hope everyone can learn from this. Like my mother always told me "If you don't ever amount to anything good, you can always serve as a bad example to others"!
