it not the only work that I needed to get done today...

I haven't shown any pics of the old room in a while... I am kinda embarrassed by the state of it right now... I just was too lazy to harvest the crops before I had to harvest the WW and then I wanted to take a break from harvesting after that... so now I have plants that are beyond ready

on a postive note.. with my old system I give the plants a dose of bloom boosters on day 28-30 and that it the last rez change I do to them, I let the ppms dwindle to flush... my oldest crop is on day 73 lol.. so it has gone well over a month without me even touching it..all the other ones are roughly a week behind and and they all had their last rez change when each system was between 28-30..so some have gone 4wks, others 3wks

I am harvesting 4 walls today of various times of SB... with this mornings accident I decided better now than never... it is one thing to lose a crop, a completely different thing to lose a crop that has been ready to harvest for weeks

if the plants look like shit it is because they should, they are well overflushed..the buds are still good though like I said I have been there to make sure they were alive and I have been staying up on the rez changes on the other ones that aren't ready for harvest..but most of these have went well over a month without me doing anything but look at them

I am 2 screens short of having enough screens for each system, but usually after harvest I detach the screen and attach it to the next system in line...1 of the 4 crops only has 5 plants in it, and without a SCROG training which really adds to the yield...between the 4 there is at least another 18oz

the two oldest.. the one on the top is the 5 plant w/o screen, the bottom one is mostly done harvested




the other two ready for harvest





then I changed the other 2 that aren't ready rez.. they were both ready for bloom so today is their last rez change



New Sour Bubble



I really let most of those go..didn't stay up on the defoliating etc but they will still yield respectably

as for this mornings accident.. over half of the plants have bounced back and look normal.. a few may still bounce back.. I have enough extra clones that I was planning on using to fill a a system in my old room, in my big cloner that were unaffected to replace any that don't recover..and I can go about this many ways

since I am harvesting the remaining coolers in the old room, I can take the surviving clones and distribute them amongst the systems.. or I could replace any that don't recover and put them in the WW and continue on schedule.. or use just the best clones and have some open spots or checkerboard pattern and still fill the screen come the end of stretch....its really more of an adjustment..and it my own fault anyways, cant blame the system for not plugging it in

my moms are ready for another big trim, and then I be back on schedule ..that is the next thing on my to-do list..then I will spend the whole month of Jan looking for a new house.. it gonna be cutting it close to even finish the current WW crop before my lease is up, so I need to be making some big decisions..now wouldn't be the worse time to shut down since I have all this bud piling

I am trying to run two schedules at the moment.. the schedule where I stay and just continue harvesting, transplanting, cloning, etc... and the schedule where I move and have to shut down.. the sooner I figure out which way I am going, the better

ok..no pics but time to update

haven't been to the grow in about 5 days...was busy with xmas of course.. then the day after I was just lazy..then the next day we had a huge snowstorm and got about a foot of snow, so I didn't feel like going anywhere.. but I had to stop by today, my grow is in a residential area so I am required to shovel my walkway, as it is public.. these are the little things you have to take into account when running remotely...since I used to live there and had no problems, my biggest job is making it seem like I still live there.

anyways this the longest I have been away from the grow since building the WWs... however nothing bad came of it...system still running smooth...since I have been lacking in visits during the critical stretch period though, the plants weren't trained as well as the last time... they still filled out the canopy very well, but I wouldn't consider this one a SCROG grow, it is more like regular canopy with trellis support...should still do very well though

the last thing I did before I left last time was replace any clones that got damaged by my stupidity.. I ended up having to replace 11/48 clones..the clones that were used to replace them were unaffected, however they were not my 'first round draft pick'...but in my experience, clones that come to the brink of death and survive, go on to do even better just like humans who have a near death experience, they have a new outlook on life..but anyways I got a full WW crop still, so no harm no foul..maybe a few days extra in veg

I was a little behind, but easily caught up.. first thing first, I needed to change the WW rez.... I have only done one rez change to it so far... after I drained it, I added the nutes to the rez and while I was waiting for it to fill back up, I changed the mothers rez also... I finished with the mothers about the same time as the WW rez was finished filling...so I got two of my major chores done at the same time in about 45min

next I needed to change the rez to my large cloner...took another big batch of clones for WW round 4...now I am back on schedule...the new theme of this next round is gonna be "with the least amount of visits possible"

I only harvested 2 of 4 crops from the old room so I still have two more left to harvest and if I wait a couple more days I will have 3...no clones have went in the old room in a while.. once I figure out whether I am moving or not I will get my butt back in gear

I have found a few houses that are acceptable and I have more money now than ever before so it shouldn't be a problem.... but I only want to actually buy a house if it is near perfect not just acceptable... all the ones I have seen are only for rent, but I am gonna inquire about land contracts or RTO .. I have a slumlord landlord now but I cant always be sure that I will have one in future houses...don't want to find a house to grow in and have a LL all in my business..i would assume that they wouldn't be if I payed my rent on time and never bothered them, which I currently do..but I think I might pay a little extra to take the LL out of the equation, even if I have to walk at the end of the contract and charge the deposit to the game


if I don't move, my WW room will still be on track and I will have to get caught up in my old room.. but if I do have to move, the WW was built with that in mind.. it can be easily taken apart and put back together, and all my veg system and cloners can be moved with plants in them ( have already done before) , and even use the containers to double up on moving extra equipment

in a perfect scenario, I will have a full batch of clones in my big cloner, and batch in my WW veg that is ready to transplant in a couple days..i drain them, I move both these to the new house, and refill.. I take down the WW and rebuild it at the new house, then transplant the clones over and be 7wks out from harvest even after a shutdown and move

if the LL doesn't want a walkthrough than I will more than likely stay.. if I can have a whole year of WW harvests, then I would be more than good

hope everyone had a Merry Christmas

I definitely had a merry Christmas! Thanks! I've been following your thread since the beginning and just wanted to say I really appreciate all the detail you post. The good, the bad, the weird problems and your thought process behind resolving them have all been very helpful as I go through my own journey.

thanks Kit Kat that means a lot .. I am glad I could be of help, that is what I am trying to accomplish, as I have learned a lot myself from reading other peoples threads...so I try to make mine as helpful, even if it is only you learning from my mistakes....

my posts are usually way longer too, but after I write up the rough draft, I will go through and thin out anything that is not too relevant.. I wanna be detailed but I don't want to be boring or redundant...but I want people to feel like they are growing right beside me and sometimes I think out loud so others can chime in and help me in my thought process

ok for the sake of honesty and a little entertainment I am gonna share this story...

got robbed for a half pound today...here it goes.. excuse the language, this is the raw story

so my buddy calls me last night saying his uncle wanted hp... this dude has been steady getting 2-4 oz off me on the regular and he has connections in the city....the Sour Bubble is about the best you can find around and even though this was the largest pack he ever got I didn't really think nothing of it...real names are omitted, but we will call this guy HOMEY

everytime I met him before I always had the weed in the trunk and I would get the money and then pop the trunk, stash the money in there and give him his pack..sometimes he would even give me the money first and I would bring it back to him after..so there was a certain level of trust between us

anyways I pick him up and we are sitting outside the house..thought it was just gonna go like normal and I would just be dealing with him so I ask where the money is and he says that he doesn't got it and he waiting for his uncle to get there.....so we are sitting there bullshitting for like a minute and then all of the sudden the back doors open and two more dudes get in the car..one was a little bigger than me and the other was way bigger ...both thugged out the smaller one we will just call CUZ and the bigger was his uncle so we call him UNCLE

my awareness levels went up at this point.. I have been in situations like this and they never end well.. I decide that I should put the car in drive and drive around so I could at least not be a sitting duck...

to describe the scenario..i am driving (me 5'11' and 130lbs soaking wet, yeah that's me lol) , HOMEY is passenger ( probably 5'5'' and 120lbs, stockier than me but shorter, and UNCLE is behind me (dunno how tall really but taller than me and probably 220-250), and CUZ is bout my height and maybe 180lbs sitting behind passenger

we drive around town and they seem friendly at first and I am starting to fell more comfortable.. they are asking to see it of course and i am a little iffy so I pull over and pop the trunk.. I am still a little nervous so I only grab two or three buds out of the bag and shut the trunk again..

I get back in the car and hand them the buds.. they seemed thoroughly impressed.. they say "yeah we want it go ahead and grab it" i just sort of look at them like well i showed you mine now show me yours.. UNCLE says, " bro its cool we aint gonna pull any shady shit or nothing like that" i sorta laugh and jokingly say "oh yeah cause usually people who have to reassure you to that are trying to pull some shady shit, no offense fellas but it 3 on 1 here, you gonna have to let me have the money first".. CUZ laughs and says,"bro don't worry we got money" and reaches in his pants pocket like he about to grab it.. i am watching him and waiting for him to pull out his money and for a sec i thought he was bout to pull out a gun, but he pulls his hand out and there is nothing in it.... i just sorta look like ok wtf and there is a awkward silence

then MY BUDDY, my friend, the only dude in the car that i know HOMEY reaches in his jacket and pulls out a gun and says," Nigga pop the trunk!!"... i look him dead in the eye and say "shoot me".. he bucks up keeps the gun close to him and points it at my face.. i sorta of ball up and turn to where my back is resting on the inside of the driver door and i am facing him ... i made it seem like i was scared but it was part of the plan, at this point if they were gonna rob me i was gonna make it as hard as possible because they may gonna shoot me anyways, so i am positioning myself, stay tuned

so i say " you gonna shoot me with the safety on..?" he looks down for a split second at his gun and as soon as he does i kicked him with both feet right in the face... i kicked the gun first so the gun was between his face and my feet and i kicked him so hard that his head hit my passenger window and broke it ...this was probably my biggest fuck yeah moment

after that i quickly reached for my keys which were still in the ignition (car off) and try to run out the door( there is a little push button trunk open on the drivers side but i was hoping if i ran with the keys that would think they were fucked..banking on their stupidity .. but his uncle the big guy behind me grabs me over the seat and puts me in a headlock... he pulls out a gun too and i can see him in my rearview have it to my head, but i still fight, he tightens up his grip and presses the gun to my head.. i can feel the cold steel against me.. he says "nigga you really wanna die over some punk ass weed..?'' and i say," no but i aint gonna let you just rob me like a bitch i don't care how small or outnumbered i am"

HOMEY grabs the keys out of the ignition and tosses them back to CUZ...HOMEY is already bleeding cause i fucked him up.. HOMEY goes back to pointing the gun at me but he looks more scared than i should ..UNCLE releases his grip and continues to point his gun on me too... CUZ has the keys and opens his door to go to the trunk... even though i have two guns pointed on me i get out the car and walk around to the trunk as well.. i wedge myself between CUZ and the trunk lock and we kind of scuffle..not a fist fight more like a tie up wrestling type shoving match... he is just trying to move me out of the way.. he has got me by the neck with one hand and holdin my other arm with the other and he is bigger than me so he is winning.. he starts moving me out of the way and i am stutter stepping on only one foot at this point, so i twist my body and sorta sweep his legs and use his own momentum against him...he tripped over the pile of snow on the sidewalk and we both fell down.. i landed on top of him and instantly jerked my body away from his grip.. i pretty much had him in a full mount i just wasn't all the way sat up and i unloaded on him real quick... a right punch to the eye, left punch to the nose, right punch to the mouth..all clean.. probably two-three seconds

i heard the other car doors open when we were scuffling but the other two were out of view but before i could get in a fourth punch on CUZ i get a blunt blow to the right-back side of my head..for the first time in my life i understood the term "seeing stars" his uncle had pistol whipped me and when he did i saw a bright light in the front of my eyes... i fell to the side and off of CUZ and CUZ gets up and kicks me a few time in the ribs.. i hear UNCLE say, " Fuck that nigga, lets go!" and they pop open the truck, grab the bag and run to their car

they get a few seconds ahead of me.. i am in pain from the pistol hit, but i am not knocked out or really dazed..i can see blood on the snow next to me that i am assuming is coming from my head.. and i reach back and i am bleeding some but when he hit me it was more like skipping across my head and not like a full blow, luckily cause i have seen people need several stitches from those mine is just a large bump with some blood

i get up and grab my keys out of the trunk lock, shut the trunk and get in my car and follow chase.. i am chasing them all over town and not letting up... they go a few blocks and they pull over.. i pull in front of them and block their car so they cant get out.. i don't really know what i am gonna do because at this point i am kinda like the Chihuahua trying to start a fight with three rotweilers, with guns

UNCLE is driving and i walk up to the car door i get about ten feet away and he takes his gun out and points it out the window at me.. he says, "come any closer and i gonna shoot you " i keep walking towars him and walk to within a few feet of the window and say " you just robbed the wrong person..." he says " i aint scared of you" and i say " that's fine bro you don't have to be scared of me, you have to be scared of the people i know, but that is not what i mean...sure you could hit me for a lick right now and maybe make 2-3k off of it, but that is nothing compared to what you would have made if you would have fucked with me for real...so now you can give me the bud back or the money it is your choice.." pretty bold words coming i must admit... of course they told me to fuck myself and told me to move my car but i wouldn't move... CUZ and UNCLE were both sitting on the side facing me and they both got out and walked up to me..for a second i thought shit i am about to get my ass beat.. they both walk up to me but i stand my ground and put my fists up... they stop within a couple feet of me and UNCLE smiles and says, " this little ass nigga actualy got some heart .. he gets up in my face and says" if you keep following us i am gonna fuck you up" and shoves me down.. they go back to the car and load back up and back out...

i am not letting up though fuck that.. i get back in my car and continue chasing.. now it is starting to be a more high speed chase and it still kind of snowing.. i am chasing them all around town and i get ahead of them on a side residential road and slam on my brakes to turn the car sideways and block their path again they slam on their brakes and hit the side of my car.. they instantly put in in reverse and turn around in a driveway... there is a hot girl in front of us who gets out of the car and says," OMG do you want me to call the police..?'' I tell her no i just saw them involved in another hit in run and the police are already on their way ;) another guy turns onto the road and i point at their SUV and tell them to block that guy in and he tried..

i was thinking on my feet, my plan was contantly changing... it was broad daylight and in a residential area.. i was thinking if he would get blocked in i would tell him to give me the bud and i would let him go or wait for one of these concerned citizens to call the cops and you get busted with all thes guns and bud... i was thinking no matter how ghetto you are no one is stupid enough to do that in broad daylight in a town like this...but he got out before the man could block him in.. probably a good thing because it is wrong for me to get innocent people involved

so i continued chasing him.. now this is a full on chase.. at this point I actually thought about calling the cops myself and reporting some a gunfight/hit and run and letting them get pulled over riding super dirty, but even though they fucked me I thought that was a bitch move and couldn't take the risk of them flipping back on me ...so chased them for about five min and they pulled over and i seen HOMEY hop out the car with the bag that the bud was in and start running.. i pull over and start chasing him on foot.. about 5 seconds in i realized i fucked up, i have seen The Wire and he was just the decoy... but i said fuck it i am gonna catch that mother fucker and whoop his ass..

it was snowing outside and i just followed his footprints..i got an idea of where he was going and i took a shortcut he was pretty far ahead of me.. i must have ran like 3-4 blocks.. i pop out in this alley and i look to my right first and there is nothing there then i look to my left and there is HOMEY about 15 feet away...i have only been in a few fights in my life and i cant honestly say i won any of them.. but i am pissed... i looked at him and he could tell he fucked up... i am walking at him like i hope your ready for this and he says " i am sorry bro they made me do it, here is the bud back" and goes to hand me the shoebox.. i already know there is nothing in it but i play it off like oh thank god and walk up to grab it and slap it out of his hand with my left and follow with a straight punch right to the face... knocks him down and i get over top of him and and start punching some more.. he rolls around to his stomach and grabs my ankle to try and trip me and i yank it free and get on top of him and put him in a headlock.. i don't know what mount it is in UFC but he was on his stomach completely stretched out and i was on my stomach the opposite way so i heads are at the same end and our feet were opposite... i had him under his armpit and around the neck in a kind of nelson and my arm was free so he couldn't even really defend himself, it was over for him.. i would take a clean shot to his face and say some shit like "rob me will ya?!!" i did this literally until i got tired... dude got fucked up

so after the scuffle he is bleeding and bruised and he is saying, " bro i am sorry they said they were gonna kill me if i didn't give you up," and i say "bullshit you are the one who pulled the gun first" and he says " bro i did that to save your life.. you don't know those dudes they would have shot you.. i could tell you weren't gonna give it up so i pulled mine so they wouldn't pull one on you, it didn't even have bullets " and i said, " if they were making you rob someone you could have chose anybody but me," and he said," bro i sold them some SB and they really liked it, they came to my house and took all my money and trees and soft and said call that nigga with the bubble or they were gonna shoot me.." he had started fucking with powder and had gotten in to debt apparantly and i said "well in that case you spit in their face and say shoot me, before you turn in any of your friends...that is no different than cops sayin they gonna lock you up if you don't turn in your friends, you are no better than a snitch"

when i said this you can tell he had an epiphany ..we had known eachother for a while and people like us live our life by the code and he broke it.. he apologized sincerely and profusely and told me he would do anything to make it right ... i gave him a ride back to his house and took everything he owned... shoes clothes his Xbox and PS3 his TV and told him he can have it back when i get my money, every last penny even if i had to find him and beat his ass everyday.. he had broken his phone in our fight and he told me he would get me the address to where his uncle stayed


so anyways this is a hard lesson learned.. it is not the first time i got robbed but it is definitely my last.. for the first time in my life i have more weed coming in than going out so i started branching out. and made the classic mistake of letting greed get the best of me... i don't want to see this happen to anybody else and looking back i am lucky that it didn't go worse..

let this be a lesson to everyone.. don't talk to strangers kids and don't fuck with anybody who is on that other shit.. people do crazy things on that stuff and even your good friends will fuck you over..

of course there is a few things I could have done different.. like told them I had the bud somewhere else etc but I cant change the past only learn for the future.. but I am proud of myself because I stood up for myself more than I ever have in my entire life..and they can rob me of the weed but they cant really rob me of the ability to grow more :)

G... you're retarded. Weed isn't worth dying for. You give it up, and grow more. WTF... At least you have some personal satisfaction I guess? But now your car is fucked up.

stay safe. Make sure nobody follows you to the grow.

GMax

I understand you what you are saying there were a lot of things I did that were stupid I admit.. but I am not a bodybuilder like you, people have been trying to get at me my whole life.. I am just sick of it.. I am done being bullied

and it not about the weed it is the principle.. I literally put my life on the line to grow it and although I may not be working hard to do it anymore it took hard work to get there and I am not just gonna let someone come in and take it.. I am sorry bobble but until this becomes a med state it is still the streets out here, as shitty as it is
and as much as I don't like it

although my actions were stupid I am still firmly proud of myself for standing up for myself and the feeling I have now is worth more than what I am out

so I could have gotten robbed and pissed my pants and then been down on myself for being stupid enough to put myself in that situation and getting treated like a punk.. or I can be in the exact same scenario and be proud of myself for standing up for myself.. I would rather take something out of it

I have been robbed before a few years back and gave it up without struggle and still got pistol whipped and almost shot and killed for real... I wont bore you with another long story but guy had me and other guy on our knees in the middle of this big deserted area with a bunch of alleys around it, and i thought for sure he was about to pull the trigger on both of us, cause he already shot at my friend for not cooperating.. the only thing that saved my life was someone pulling into their alley to park in the garage at the perfect time..dude panicked and stole my bro's car and left us in the middle of the hood in the winter in nothing but our underwear... you think that is a proud moment in my life lol

this time I didn't let it go down like that and I am still here to tell the story so fuck it

as far as my car it suffered minimal damage.. I didn't assess it till I got home and I thought it would be bad.. he hit right above my passenger back tire but when I looked it was just a few minor scrapes..shits built ford tough lol

Much props to you for sharing the story, if nothing else.

I dunno man. It's a shitty game. I got robbed without getting robbed once. Was an idiot and gave the cash to the runner. But like my old man says, all educations are either painful or expensive, or both.

Only you can truly tell what was the temperature on these idiots - if they'll really shoot, or if they're just barking. But, whatever the reality was, it worked out, sort of.. ? :)

In a sense, I'd almost stop looking back, and just finger out a resolution to a future situation, .. I mean, you've lived to fight another day, eh? So there's that. But, for real, what's with getting into a confined space (one that's moving, no less, and requires your mostly-full attention to operate, even if you are in control) w these guys? Why deal with "extras" anyway? Anyway - these are kind of rhetorical questions, for all of us to chew on, with lots of different answers I'm sure..

Not sure where I'm going - just rambling, courtesy of some Blue Satellite :D But I feel bobbles, in the sense that you can always live to grow another hugh hefner or whatever the case is. Kudos to you for standing on principal, and thank heckens you don't have a hole in your body after the fact. :dance:

Just a shitty reality of our biz, IMO. Even in a med state, there's no telling that this wouldn't happen. We might could expect the likelihood to be a smidgen less, but, ..

Anyway. Glad you're here to celebrate some NYE w us and tell us about the story, but let's hope it doesn't even get that far in the future.

:ying: But, don't let this get lost in my ramble - I'm really glad to be able to hear about it firsthand!

Exactly, I don't put myself in a situation to be robbed... or rather I minimize the risk of being robbed... Being in a med state just makes you easier to spot, because other people are doing the same thing and recognize what's going on.

Yeah I have about 75lbs on you G... but if someone has a gun and tells me they're taking my meds, I say ok. Its happened to me, just in a different way. Muscles can't stop bullets. Shit, if 3 scrappy 130lb guys wanted to kick my ass, they could.

I think you should reassess how you conduct business. Find someone you trust to do the distribution for you. Front out your meds if you have to. You can always grow more if you're alive and not in jail. Wholesaling your meds and letting someone else do all of the leg work really frees up a lot of time that you can spend growing more meds to make up for the initial decrease in profits. You gotta insulate yourself. You are the manufacturer. If you get caught selling bags, and it leads back to the grow, you're fucked. You need to minimize that risk. You can have people handle your dirty work for you if that's what it comes down to. There's people out there with nothing to lose that'll do things for money.

I'm proud of you for standing up for yourself bro... but you have to pick your battles. There's no honor amongst thieves.

So full of win and wisdom:

Muscles can't stop bullets.

reassess how you conduct business. Find someone you trust to do the distribution for you.

You gotta insulate yourself.

All of that, FTMFW!

I'm with bobble - pay someone to do the legwork, let them take the risk, and don't be cheap to pay them to take that risk. :artist:

Edit: Please don't let my post minimize this sentiment: I'm proud of you for standing up for yourself

..because that is some rugged shit. :D I'm just glad you're here to tell us about it, GMax :good:

thanks for all the responses guys.. imo all rippers/thieves are pieces of shit and deserve everything that comes to them.. and I would rather die on my feet than live on my knees

I understand what you mean about putting myself in that situation and I have been there more than once before so I know what to look for.. it happened so quick and they were in the car and I was outnumbered before I even knew it.. i did not know i was gonna be in that situation at all.. had known that I would even have to meet his uncle I would have never even went... and even though I was thrown into a situation that made me uncomfortable.. I tried my best to make them feel comfortable... if i was buying a hp of dro off a stranger i would wanna be at ease..and i put faith in my friend that things would go smooth.. they tried several times to just rob me the easy way by tricking me into giving it up before they had the money and they were suttle about it and not too thirsty so it didn't raise my flags enough.. and once they realized that they i wasn't ever just gonna pull the whole thing out they went to plan B

had i known that it would have gone the way it did i would have never have even gotten the few buds out of the trunk.. this was my biggest mistake because it revealed where the bud was at and the only thing i wish i would have done different because i may have avoided getting robbed altogether... i should have told them that i am not stupid enough to have a hp on me, but i guess i was lol

as far as picking my battles.. this is the first battle i have ever fought back in so this was the one i chose, and i am glad i did.. first off revealing that you have that kind of weight to someone who is not your friend is really bad.. and i thought about this after it was all said and done and on the ride to his house i made a note of making sure that HOMEY thought they had cleaned me out and there was nothing left to get me for, even though i am positive he never gonna fuck with me again.."thats all my rent,after xmas i was broke, i aint got no money to 'get back on' i was finally paying for my own hp and now i am back to square one and gonna have to get it fronted to me if my dude will even fuck with me after i tell him what happened.. all lies just to double insure that there is not second attempt.. i wanted to include this in the original story because i thought it was important and relevant damage control..but it was getting long even before fhc said it.. i hope my stories aren't too boring

as far as distribution i have about 3 people who i have been fucking with for a long time and that's it...one i even trust to front but it always a dangerous game..every situation where i had people on credit has always ended with them owing me money.. which has sometimes even led to lost friendships etc... my current legwork guy is good for it, he appreciates and understand how big of a favor i am doing for him and he wouldn't "bite the hand that feeds him" and more importantly the SB is the best he ever had so it more like he don't wanna fuck it up...but i cant be out here throwing around qps like it nothing and having the same great bud all the time bc that is again another kind of a telltale sign of being a grower

i am more than likely gonna wrap up these last few crops and move shop in light of the circumstances.. it sucks because i had a good thing going there..but this location is only barely acceptable..in fact i moved there as a sort of "test my skill" as it is literally the worst town in my area for doing what i am doing just for the simple fact that it is too nice and there are too many dickhead cops...even my next door neighbor is a retired police officer (true story) and i am getting too comfortable there... in fact i am a firm believer that everything happens for a reason and i think this was fates way of telling me it is time to move on and staying there another year was gonna cause me more problems..rather get robbed than get busted... new city new adventure time to turn the page and start a new chapter

idk i am still kind of drunk so i wrap this up, i know fhc is busy :biggrin: jk lol... gonna try to stop by the grow tom

happy new years everybody

wow fuckin great story!!

you made em work for that shit. what i don't get is if your homey owed them they could have took all the shit that you took from him, the ps3, tv, etc.

He would rather almost get u killed than lose his electronics. so that sounds shady. I would just stay the fuck away from him and keep his shit.

Close up shop........MOVE...Live to grow another day....Buy a FUCKIN chest freezer to store overstock in and move on with life........NEVER stick yer dick on the choppin block......

Insulate yourself from the sales end of things...drop the price and wholesale that shit out to as minimal amounts of folks as possible and let them do distribution.......

Greed will cause yas ta lose yer weed...and it did......Aight.....didn`t wanna bitch atchas cuz it`s already been taken care of by Bobbles , but we care and are DAMN glad yas`re still here to tell the war story.....

Cut yer losses..Get the fuck outta Dodge and set up somewhere else......IMMEDIATELY......Who knows......If he does know , Cuz might tell Unc where yas live AND grow , and then whatchas gonna do when they come for the whole shebang........

Hopefully no one knows or follows yas in the comin days.....anyways.....Damn sorry ta hear this bullshit.......
