Farm Life With Snype!

I've thought long and hard the last couple of days trying to figure out my life. When I moved out to the middle of no where and made all of these plans, the picture included other people. Now that has changed and I will have to change my plan. My options were to stay out here and invest in the second operation which could cost 50-70k to complete and I still have to sink some other money into this operation as well but not too much. In reality I would only be stuck here for 3 or 4 more years but I would be completely isolated from other people. I've had too many years of this type of isolation for too long and I know that my skill can travel anywhere.
So I'm going to take my second option. I'm going to ride out the last of the flowering plants for the next 2 months and bring me and my MOMs down to Colorado in May. I've never been to CO but there's no way that it can be worse than the East Coast. I've been so sick of the east coast for the past few years. Hopefully things are more open in CO and there's more growers who have a true passion for this. I just hope to meet more people like myself and it's not going to happen where I am. See you guys on the other side in a few months. To be continued...

Snype,
I want to say thank you again for all the help. Made switching from orgs to rdwc super simple and saved a lot of headache. 1/2 way thru and only real issue i have had was cal def. and not enough vertical space
Hope you find your home and some well deserved happiness soon brother. Will be keeping an eye out for any projects you may do in the future. Best of luck!

good luck bro!
go west young man,go west....
First thing to do. Get a Colorado Driver's license, and put Colorado plates on the car.
Sets a 'residency' date and makes you less visible.
Dude I'm happy for you. Isolation is pretty shitty for extended periods of time. Hell, prisoners prefer being with other prisoners over being in isolation. That's where they punish inmates!! Imagine that... "nah fuck that, I'd rather be with *insert murderers name* "
You have a lot of fucking talent, and that's what they need over in CO (or any medicinal state for that matter). Best of luck to you my friend, and keep it on the low that you're moving soon. I was robbed when I leaked plans on the internet so I want you to find the stones to cross that river safely. Keep us updated on your success, I'm actually really interested in how this all goes because I have the same plans once I have a comfortable amount of money put away to do so!
What are your intentions out there by the way? Focusing on the medicinal or the recreational side of the industry? Respect for making the move, hopefully it'll reach the east coast soon so guys over there can come out of the shadows and live their passion without that fuckin fear. You got this bro, happy for ya
wait it out man, the light is coming soon I promise. I feel you, just gotta be safe and never get lazy in that aspect pretty much. I feel like it's unnecessary sometimes but then I slap myself in the face and make that dumpster run or delete that text message before sending...
good things come to those who wait. That's what's great about social media, we can meet growers across the planet and get so many different POV's it brings that sense of brotherhood to the isolated grower like yourself and I. Hang in there bud
I still have the computer for the time being. The last few days has been strange. I wish I could give details but I can't. There's not much time to think about what is going on in my personal situation. The plants aren't going to stop growing to wait for me to figure it all out. There is always so much work to do and I'm just trying to keep up while expanding on other ventures. In times like this is when a person has to be emotionally strong so that they continue the path or things could get destructive. Running any type of successful business is never easy and most business's will fail. It's all about the management of the business and I take my business very seriously. I will never allow it to fail or it would show my weakness. Markets are always changing and plans are always needing revisions. If you don't change, you eventually fail. I've been in business a long time. Most people are not meant to be in business. I continue to consume myself in my work. I have many projects to complete.
I've lost some of my work in the past with broken computers. Because of what's going on, I figure maybe it's a better idea to finish documenting the seedlings since I will be breeding with some of them. I need a way to remember what happened and what traits were contained within a line. I can see how stable or unstable a specific line or cross is and learn where I'm making any future mistakes. Where ever I go, my cuts come with me so recording this information will help me. So that's what I'm going to do for now.
My main focus with the seedlings is to find my Sour Diesel IBL males. I've grown some of this stock in the past already. I haven't grown enough to form any conclusions of stability as of yet. There's a lot of information and misinformation contained on this site and the internet but I'd rather form conclusions from what I see in my own grows because there's a lot of other things that could have led to grower error or purposeful misinformation. From what I'm seeing so far, the SD's all look very similar. It's consistent with my past grows with this stock but I did find a Thick Stemmed SD in the past that I didn't like. She was different. This has also been documented from other growers here as well. To be fair, an IBL only has to be 90% consistent and I did only find 1 of those plants so far which is in-line with those numbers as of now.
The offspring of my last Sour Diesel crossed to BYTCH is going to tell me loads of information about the SD IBL line. So far it is looking very promising. All ChemDDxSD IBL seedlings look exactly the same and are growing identical. It's a good sign so far. There is still a long way to go though.
I'm trying to organize some people to do a final smoke test on all of my pheno's to see if I need to eliminate anything from the stable. Lately all I've been smoking is Illuminati StarDawg. She is pretty amazing. I love her in every way except for her growth structure. I'm still learning her. She has massive flavor and the taste is amazing. Only way I can describe it is a candy Sour Diesel. I smoke it mostly because of those flavors.
My intentions have always been to come out of the shadows and proceed with my work. The faster that I can do that, the better for my mental state. I can get a lot more work done when there is no fear. It is not all about money for me. Money is just a byproduct of my work. I'm not complaining. There's no way to really know what directions I'm going. I can see many different pictures. It will most likely have to do with what I'm passionate about at the time and that is always changing. I can see myself working for someone else or the same way that I do things now. I'm always open to anything as long it allows me to continue my learning of this special plant. I feel that we become experts in acute areas of what we are passionate about. There are certain areas in growing that I feel like few people will know as well as me. There are area's that other passionate growers will know better than me at the same time. That's why I feel like a team is always much better than a grower with a paid crew. I've been trying to build this dream team for many years. The people on the east coast think much different and it's hard to keep people happy or find the right people because we are more in the shadows. I feel like CO can offer me more.
