Hey all

Been a while, and looks like 'twill be a while too.

Super busy with life shit, good and bad, but finally got back on my feet after having to tear down back in the winter.

Reacquired my keepers, just flipped a super healthy round on 8/7, got my cloning mojo back (been back at 100% for the past month or so), even started to dabble in some coco & seemed to be having relatively moderate success with that.

Right now, there's about 12" of water in our basement. I have plants floating in the middle of the basement -- the ones that aren't completely submerged. Water is still rising, too.

So, that's about it! If life didn't have me paying more attention to more pressing matters lately, it shore do now. Sorry for the hippy-dippy statement here, but I have to admit that I feel the universe strongly tugging me in some other direction. Not just on the grow - general Life Shit.

My kid just celebrated his first birthday. I just found out I've got some fucked up heart condition, they may or may not be able to resolve with a "procedure." (Today I learned that if said "procedure" goes wrong, and the odds aren't great, it would blast my AV node and I'd be on a pacemaker for the rest of my life!) I just turned 34. What the fuck?

Anyway. Updates have been skosh, but I was pretty stoked to show y'all what's been cooking now. Except I didn't build my ark in time, so now I'm fucked.

Maybe I'll get it back together one of these days, but in the meantime, there won't be any meaningful or exciting updates.

Best of luck to the rest of you guys, and thanks all for the wisdom, knowledge, and patience along the way. :wave:

~sprout - thanks! FWIW, you're one of the dudes 'round here that's been super helpful to me, & who I'm always interested to read..

bobble - :yeahthats No shit, right?

Less a function of "OKAY THAT'S IT I'M DONE GROWING," and more "Well, gardening's already a fraction (fraction) of what it once was, and now I've got this huge new project on my hands, and part of that means/includes the fact that the grow has to be re-assembled. When I did that back in Feb/Mar, it took me months to recover. And that was just rebuilding the grow, and not the whole fucking basement :laughing: And THEN the grow.."

Dude, sorry to hear about the troubles on multiple fronts. Floating plants seemed to be a common theme yesterday around the D.

Best of luck getting back to where you want to be, wherever and whatever that might be.

Dude, this update crushes me homie. You and I be one in the same. You my boy, I wish I could help clean up. What's the water from? Busted water heater? Rains?

I don't even know what to say about the heart thing other than get it figured out, you got a little one and a loving wife. Do what it takes! New career? Modify diet? Take medication?

This shit hits home. PM your email addy or tele bro. I'm here for ya if you ever wanna vent/chat etc. and if it makes you feel better, after all misery loves company, I've had a super rough couple months. Life is conspiring against us
