welcome Skunk- I too am a 10+ year grower and newbie on ICMAG. I am a couple weeks from switching to the Flo n Gro system. I see in your pics you are currently using it. What are your general thoughts on the system? I have read a few grow journals and everybody that uses it seems to like the results and ease of use. Just curious.

Peace
bigboi

very nice sir skunxx keep em going.

mutiple small plants grown over a shorter amount of time will alway trump the yeild of bigger plants.with just time being the main factor most commercial grows go with a sea of green.I cant argue with your results just thought id bring it up.I love growing monsters in big pots too.

We're going to have to inundate the inboxes of Senator Kevin Bryant, kevin@kevinbryant.com, and Representative Rutherford, trutherford@sc.rr.com. If anyone doesn't have an email address or computer, I'll be happy to pass along handwritten or typed letters. Have them sent to P.O. Box 5752, Columbia, SC 29250.

Representative Rutherford's bill may not go as far as 2007's S. 220; but, if he doesn't hear from the people, just as other legislative members need to, then how will he know that his bill could be better.

This actually is a small grow for me.Size that is,that one BF plant just took off and grew faster than any plant I have ever seen inside.
I have a few clones off her. I mean most of the other plants are the same size.I have grown my strains under same conditions for many yrs so I hope this is a good plant for a mom.The other BF plant is right beside her,now her buds are a little bit bigger she will catch up.
I took a small bud off and got a couple one hits off her,the buzz hit me in the face and I felt my heart speed up. The buzz lasted a good few hours til I had to get something to eat
HUngry now brb

Peace out
Skunkxxx

Perry Parks - Medical Marijuana Crusader Is Hardly Mellow
Perry Parks, a 68-year-old former Vietnam helicopter pilot, is relentless in his campaign to persuade North Carolina's legislature to legalize the use of marijuana for medical purposes.

He doesn't just walk the halls of the legislature, often attired in his old National Guard uniform. To publicize his cause, he agreed to be photographed smoking a bong - a picture seen on national television and in newspapers as far as way as Japan.

"I call it the hit heard around the world," Parks quips. "It's all over the Internet."

Like a Tar Heel Forrest Gump, Parks has a habit of turning up at the side of notable political leaders, whether Gov. Bev Perdue, U.S. Sen. Kay Hagan, N.C. House Speaker Thom Tillis or President Barack Obama.

He has twice persuaded the N.C. Democratic Party's executive committee to pass a resolution supporting legalizing marijuana for medical reasons, although party leaders seem skittish about the issue.

But it will be far harder to persuade the legislature to do so. A bill legalizing medical marijuana did not get very far last session when the Democrats were in control, and it likely faces an even more difficult road now that the more socially conservative Republicans are in power.

But that has not deterred Parks, an intense man, who like all crusaders, believes that if he just has a chance to sit down and explain his position, people will come around to his point of view.

He is doing this, Parks says, for his fellow veterans, many of whom are dealing with chronic pain, and have found that marijuana provides them relief.

"I have veterans that call me every day who are being arrested or being kicked out of VA clinics because we don't have a state law," Parks says.

Parks says inhaling marijuana relieves his pain from severe degenerative disc disorder and arthritis.

But while veterans are his primary motivation, the bill that has been introduced would make medical marijuana available to anyone who meets the medical guidelines. In December, Parks was elected president of the N. C. Cannabis Patients Network, a group that counts 1,000 members.

This is the second session that a bill legalizing marijuana for medical purposes - but not legalizing it generally - has been introduced in the state legislature. Last session, the bill got a hearing in the House Health Committee, but this time it has not gotten that far, and is stuck in the House Rules Committee, a burial ground for bills.

Rep. Stephen LaRoque of Kinston, co-chairman of the Rules Committee, said he would hold a hearing if the N.C. Medical Society expressed an interest in it. But the group, which represents doctors, has not endorsed the bill.

State Rep. Kelly Alexander of Charlotte, the bill's chief sponsor, said much of the political and medical establishment are wary of the legislation, although privately many will say they know people who have been helped by the medical use of marijuana.

"Everyone in the world of officials is afraid of it," Alexander said. "That is why open discussion and open dialogue is important."

"Some people have what I call a Cheech and Chong view of the issue," Alexander said. "Frankly, if you look at it through that lens it makes it more difficult to take it seriously and makes it more difficult to listen to the evidence out there about its medical efficacy."

Alexander said there are 20 ailments that medical marijuana has been proven to have some positive effect on, including helping those undergoing chemotherapy treatment. And he cited a recent article published by the National Institute of Health that suggested that cannabis can play some role in retarding the growth of cancer tumors.

The bill would allow doctors to prescribe marijuana for a number of prescribed ailments and conditions such as cancer, AIDS, Alzheimer's, diabetes, Crohn's disease, hypertension, severe nausea and epilepsy. The state Department of Agriculture would oversee a licensing system for growing marijuana.

Fifteen states and the District of Columbia allow marijuana to be used for medical purposes. But no state in the South allows it.

Parks says he gets it. He is career military, a resident of small-town North Carolina, and a Christian. His grandson played every quarter last season for the University of Alabama football team.

"This stuff totally removed my pain"' Parks says of the marijuana. "I couldn't believe it. I prayed about it. My preacher told me I was still wrong. I went back and prayed about it."

Parks spent 28 years in the military, as a chief warrant officer 4, flying helicopters in Vietnam and later with the National Guard.

In his 30 months in Vietnam, Parks said he earned the Distinguished Flying Cross, two Bronze Stars and the Air Medal - 31 times.

He went through a difficult period after Vietnam with drugs, but got his life back together, married and raised a family, eventually settling in Rockingham. He became a corporate pilot for Murphy Farms and worked as a pilot examiner for the Federal Aviation Administration.
