Kinda fun to play in when you have a full-size 4x4 truck.

Off to go get some bags of coco so I can some transplanting done.

 

[unclefishstick]

lol,its really fun on a snowmobile,and they must have this by you third,i have no idea how to spell it but skiing with a sled dog pulling you,skijoring? that shit is wicked fun with the right dog...

be careful out there...

aw dang,i was wrong,only mid 50's today,gonna need a windbreaker...

Mornin SUKers
3 degrees outside -11 with the wind chill !!! fukin Brrrrrr
i thought it had to be warm to snow .... guess not huh ???

it ain't bad here yet , the worst part comes tonight overnight . tomorrows gonna be a bitch to clean up but .... whatever , it is what it is ... right ? i promised myself i wouldn't let it upset me & it ain't so far . we've got about 4 maybe 5" so far but its all light & fluffy so its not really a big deal . kinda wish i had a snowmobile or a decent Quad to play on !!!

The van is a beast in the snow !!! its AWD & i've got some decent coopers on her , she'll go through anything !!!

maybe i would be less burnt on winter if i hadnt gone right to the heart of winter...i only had a car during one short part of winter so most of my alaska winter time was spent trudging around on foot,and that starts to get pretty lame after a while...glad i did it and all,but i like warm now...

 

[dansbuds]

I bitch about having to clean it up , but i'd rather have the cold & snow over the extreme heat !!!! big guys like me don't fare well in the hot , its alot easier to get warm than it is to get cold . plus i love a nice fire to warm up by

 

[unclefishstick]

you should see me when i get home after riding in the summer,i just get soaked in sweat,i have to drink gallons of water just to keep up....i think i only drank like 3 liters of fluids during the ride the other day,probably needed at least another liter during the ride and i would have felt better,plus i should have eaten more,it was probably a 3000 calorie effort so it took until yesterday before i had replaced all i had burned...
speaking of which,time to saddle up and go do errands...

 

[dansbuds]

Got my lone purple frostbyte & one of the biesels up potted , just waiting on sex from the other biesel & 2 gws x aww . hoping for 4 females to put into flower when the glue & 818's finish up in a couple weeks . took 2 cuts from each & have to get them stuck today . veg & moms are all fed , flowering trays are all auto fed .... so i guess all i have to do now is watch it snow lol

it's about 45 an raining here.

 

[unclefishstick]

45 and raining is about the worst weather in my opinion,40's and raining at any rate....
nice little buzz around town,gonna try and get back out for another hour after i eat something,think im finally getting the road bike saddle in the right spot...only had it for 18 months now...i have sure learned a lot about riding a bike in the last 6 months...

 

[unclefishstick]

this is going to be an interesting year....got a friend up in colorado right now on vacation so i will be getting a first hand report on his experience with legal retail sale.i will be interested to see what he thinks of the store bought stuff compared to mine,im already pretty certain im going to come out on top...but for certain by years end i will have a med card and an llc set up....time to start investing in a greenhouse....

 

[dansbuds]

If he can get through the lines that is !!!
one pic i seen had people out around the building & around the corner




out once with the shovel & once with the snow blower .... i'm done with it for today . the worst part is supposed to happen over night , so tomorrow will be fun .... NOT !!!

that would suck if you finally got in and anything good is sold out.. I read that some shops ran out of stock

 

[unregistered190]

The shop I saw on Fox news had people camping outside of the store starting at 1am waiting for the opening....and the shop mentioned they had stocked 50lbs.

 

[Hammerhead]

well if ea person bought there max oz that's only 800 customers per 50lbs.../ Right doing the math in my head LOL..

 

[unregistered190]

yes...with an oz limit.....
now if you are a non-resident, isn't it a 1/4 oz limit?

 

[Hammerhead]

I don't know ???

 

[dansbuds]

16 x 50 = 800 yup

Latest attemp @ cloning

Latest attemp @ cloning

Took some cuttings from my "keeper" mom Satoris...last couple of times (with other plants) haven't been too successful so trying another method. Think I saw someone post same kind of thing in this thread.....so giving it a shot.

Am I taking the right length of cuttings....leaving the right amount of leaves on top?

Water is 80 ppm, 72 Deg F, and 5.9 ish pH.

Last go around with my EZ Clone my water temp got too hot I think....about 81 Deg so leaving this setup out of the veg closet for now.

Thanks.....and Good Evening Y'all! Windy, Rainy, and getting cold here.

 

[Hammerhead]

I use RO water. 80 is OK. I don't check ph RO should be 7. The temp will change over time getting hotter. I change the water every 10 days with a super clean every 30 days. Not just a hot water rinse. Needs to be scrubbed out. I use 4" cuts with 1 larger leaf and the center leaf only. I use a rooting hormone(K-L-N) I keep the light a good distance from the cloners. they dont need much light, they will root faster in low light IME..

One of my GG X HB is almost root bound(2g pot). I need to get her up potted A.S.A.P. I need to get more grow bags and soil. im out of it right now.

 

[unclefishstick]

evening gents...

who knows,maybe the market here at least will pick back up if they cant grow enough in colo to keep up with demand,be nice to see an end to low quality out of state beasters (im lookin at you california) ...i saw some of the crap thats floating around town now and its just awful,poorly trimmed nearly brickweed b grade buds,but its cheap,and this is a cheap ass town...
