Looks good Lotus

I gotta trim a batch of plants this weekend , probably start with the GG's tonight . they'll be easy but the 818's i'm still not sure what i'm going to do with them . the bud just ain't worth all the trimming that needs to be done on them .
probably just a fan leaf plucking & then dry the rest out for hash .problem is .... i don't usually sell hash .... i just give it away . perks for my buddy's

 

[unclefishstick]

when yer hip deep in the creek the fishing always seems good! i would rather have my zappa disc back at this point...

ugh,still have a little trimming to do...gotta rally here,i want to get out for a ride so i can try the new spd pedals out...i may just buckle down and finish my house chores and see about grabbing the yakima bike rack part...if i can get that rigged up and working it might change my plans for next week riding wise....i do sort of have a bunch of stuff to do on the ogre,i figure i have about 150+ hours on it at this point so time for a new chain and brake pads,maybe a new set of cables...once i finish stress testing the racks i can go back with some loktite and hit all the bolts,get everything all tightened up and ready for the next 2000 miles...

Maybe true ...... but its even scarier to think mother nature is this fuked up ..... whats in store for us in the future ???? the snow belt moved to Hawaii & we're gonna get the tropic weather here in the Northeast

or maybe Cali will fall into the ocean or become an island like suggested lol

well the thing here is the earth is vast and ancient,and all this has happened before,even within the very short time span humans have existed....either we get control of our technology now when we sit at the crux of actually being able to do something about it,or at least soon humans will be able to command the sort of forces required to meet up with the expectations of our imaginations....flying cars,regrowing limbs and organs,new materials with incredible properties,3d printing....all that stuff is coming soon...
lol,pretty stoned this morning,no wonder i never get anything done!

in general i agree,but it only takes one ghandi to change the course of millions of lives...

kids these days live in a different world than we did,we played outside,they play in the entire world,and have the sum total of all human information sitting at their fingertips,i made dirt dams and played with frogs,they design virtual dams (and then have online seal teams blow them up!) and participate in real time wildlife surveys...

 

[dansbuds]

that just makes you an optimist & me .... i'm a pessimist

i drove cab in a city with 9 colleges ..... i've seen tomorrows future leaders .... & its fukin scary i tell ya !!!

 

[unclefishstick]

give me a chance to go to walmart today and i wont be so optimistic!
time to saddle up,i need some more medium so i can up pot one of the big plants,i may need to chop one down depending on what the calendar says about available space coming up..

 

[Grizz]

oh if you were looking for cool look dont look at me!
i just barely got a mondi sprayer and those 360 sprayers,hell,for that matter i still use magnetic ballast...

now my ogre is cool

gonna replace the tote with one a bit smaller with a lockable top with an o-ring seal to keep scent down

and get one of these to mount to the back of the trailer rack..

so i can rig up something like this...

you wanna talk serious instant bike cred! lol...oh yeah,pull up to the bike park rigged up like that people may even think im cool!! right up until i get on the mountain bike and proceed to not shred...

now that's a idea , a tow company for bikes. leave it to unc to think of it.

 

[calientecarlos]

She's gettin therr...

 

[unclefishstick]

i wish,someone else already has done it,im just follow in the tire tracks of others...you get into more urban areas and many bike shops use a cargo bike to deliver bikes,indeed the whole cargo bike thing is taking off in many places...

i tell you what,you can sure load a whole bunch of crap onto the bike all decked out like that!


and i was right dan,a quick trip to walmart was enough to get me back on the "people are fucking stupid and rude" tip again...

 

[unclefishstick]

well,one thing about large plants and up potting is that its really quick since i just end up dumping an entire bag plus into each pot...it will be nice when i get the bill trailer so i can just grunt it out and get a stack of medium all at once...
clones and seedlings are about recovered...gonna have to break down and spray,got whiteflies and they are starting to bug me and its already getting warmer so better nip it in the bud now...


got the part i needed to be able to haul a bike with my trailer,just need to make a mounting plate for it and bolt it all together...

i was pretty happy with how the rig towed today around town,i just sort of tossed stuff in where ever there was space,not like trying to balance the load out for touring but just load and go...not to bad considering the weight of everything added together...

yup .... i told ya .... we're doomed lol


just got done stuffin my face , gonna smoke a fatty & take the grandson home , then come back & start choppin some GG tops & get them trimmed up . tomorrow i'll do the bottom half . no need to get all sticky in just 1 night .

I just up potted the last GG X HB from a 2g to a 10g pot. This cross is all very similar in growth and looks from plant to plant. all have the leaf crinkle. There are no large fan leaves. Pics soon


The OG Mango Haze is very tall. over 6' now. I think she is finally slowing her stretch. I had to move 2 to the outer perimeter. Im trying to keep that 25-30" canopy distance to the bulb.


That last Anonymous x biker turned Hermie she was culled last night. I was bummed she has the strongest pine aroma I have had in a very long time. I could not risk pollination of the room.

I'm getting the #'s back down to where I want them. 6/11. I should do fine with 6 large GG#4 vs 8 smaller GG#4.. 6 Plants under 3k should do very well, 2 of the lights are DE 1k systems with a 1k vertical in the middle. Im going to shoot for 8oz per plant. I have done it before just not consistent. Sometimes less is more in this case the plants will have much more room to fill in and not be crowded..

I have my Gen picked out . Will get that on my Birthday Its made by husqvarna with a Honda Motor. 1500$


I got a new grinder. the plastic garbage I was using had plastic chips in it. So I GOT space case large 2 pc.

 

[unclefishstick]

dammit,i forgot more gloves at wally world!
i always find it ironic,im stoned out of my brains but im the one paying enough attention to not run into people and god forbid,take a moment to politely say "excuse me" rather than just bulling past....it is the closest store to me so of course i go there a bunch and over time i have sort of gotten to know many of the checkers simply because i always take the time for the basic courtesies like saying "good morning", or "please" or "thank you" then sooner or later people start getting the illusion im a nice person,so at least when i check out my walmart experience is somewhat pleasant...

Maybe so ..... but it does NOTHING for the instore experiance !!!

Can't wait to see pics of It .... i'm thinking about waiting to do my next seed drop (GG X HB Included ) after i move in the spring . I don't want to be knee deep in seedlings & then have to move everything .

My CQ from house of love has shot up past my light & i'm kind of afraid to supercrop it ... it looks like a fat hollow stem & i don't want it to snap !!! its the main branch ... i never topped this one .... i think i should have to keep her shorter . i'll grab a pic later .
the Madness are filling in nicely & have a super strong lemon smell when i do a stem rub .

we get a lot of the "tour de bum" types as i call them here in the winter,some of those guys pull some pretty crazy rigs! i dont look homeless,i look like a middle aged sports nerd with disposable income....

Maybe so ..... but it does NOTHING for the instore experiance !!!

lucky for me dan i have my smug sense of superiority to keep me going!

im really liking the mental floss so far,the strawd plant has been giving me some trouble but its coming along now,got the big glue45 coming out in another week or so...alright!,more trimming!!

I forgot to mention I won a Signed copy of Jorges book Marijuana Grow Basics. I don't have this book but I suspect its not something I don't already know but I will give it a read to make sure its new info. It will make a good collectors Item??

 

[unclefishstick]

it never hurts to go over the basics over and over,it took many years of reading those books before i really understood them,i think they have gotten better over the years so it should at least make a good bathroom book! lol
i used to look at those big book of buds and the cannabible series over and over and just drool...now im growing better strains and taking better pics than them and thats largely thanks to icmag...

I needed a new 2014 Calender , Did you all get your 2014 calendars ?? I can never find the kind I like. I prefer wall poster calendars. Shows the whole year on the 1 page 12 months. I don't like flipping the pages. The one I found shows 3 moths at a time. think this will be OK.

Edit I found 1 thats shows the whole year so I got that one instead .
