I know you-all like the pics as much as I do -- here is the latest addition to the tent -- it is called "Mountain Bud," from Vancouver Island, grown from seed. It hasn't sexed, but it is too big to leave in the vedge room, so I'm going to sex it out in the tent. The clones in vedge look pretty healthy.

Thank you smokster -- I doubt anyone cares. I broke the golden rule -- I disagreed with the opinion of one of the stars of MP. I did ask for help. I WAS in a panic -- Hell, I love that plant. She is still making bud, by the way. Suddenly, I didn't even know how to Ph water. My whole grow was in question -- I was getting links to places to buy Ph meters, and nothing I could say, no matter how I said it, seemed to get through. I felt like I was being kicked while I was down. I probably said some things I shouldn't have, but I was suddenly being attacked form all quarters

Funny. I was looking at my user cp page and saw this reputation thing at the bottom. I sure upset a couple people on here saying what I did sticking up for you. No big deal. Guess I better go now. You keep up the great work hemp. I'll come back and look when you are closer to finishing your grow. Semper fi Bro. Peace out...
 
Don't go away smokster, we were the ones who were right -- I had no PH problem at all. I over nuked a plant -- they know that, and won't admit it. People who have grown more than three grows know I didn't have a Ph prob and have voiced their opinion. All you need do is look at my grow now, and it is obvious I didn't have Ph problems -- we are dealing with some pretty inflated egos in here -- to be expected. It's a nice place to show off. I don't mind -- they are welcome to their opinion. I will settle for the reputation my plants get after they have been cured. :)
 
three gallon containers. Inspired by Hampster Lewis' one gallon grows.
 
Ya. I got bad reps for telling a couple of peps that they were out of line or something. I got 1 good one from Rosie, Thank you Rosie. The others were real proud of themselves and hide behind anonymity. Ya real nice place, so I thought. I will say no more. Let the dogs sleep. If you don't mind I would like to stay in touch with you. Maybe just private message you. I am new enough at this that I need help. Came on here to try to get help. I got involved with your grow and was sucking up as much knowledge as I could. Seems I stepped on some big toes and now am being slammed for it the only way they can. I'm like you though, I have fought so much just for simple things like life and liberty that I still fight when a brother is down, no matter the price. So if I could message you when I have questions or comments, I would appreciate it. You know everyone can walk a straight line, conform or else, I think they call it communism. Something you and I fought against to keep the brave anonymous people free. I've seen way worse written on here by moderators and its still in print and their rep is beyond repute and they are talkin about how much they sold their weed for. I'll probably be sanctioned or cut off for standing up for myself and venting but what the heck. Again, lifes to short.

First of all my friend, you have no need to go PM to ask me a question. There are real people in here that will be willing to help you as much as I am. Hell, this is my FIRST grow. Look what they have done for me. The moderators in this forum are expert growers, and they know the difference between over nuting a plant and having a PH problem in your grow room. And they know you haven't done a thing wrong by defending my stupid a**. I need friends -- I would like to consider you a friend -- don't abandon me in this quagmire of egotism. I just want to be real. :)

Maybe Hemper will photo copy his pamphlet for ya.... :hubba:
 
You are a small minded little critter, aren't you Ant? Did you ever hear of not judging a book by it's cover? You seem to be able to judge a book without ever having even seeing its cover. You are amazing. I'm sure you are also God's gift to growing weed, and in that tiny ant farm where you reside, I'm sure you are well respected and very high up in Ant society, but you know what? In this journal you are not welcome, and I'd appreciate it if you would just piss off -- you are a pissant, aren't you? :)
 
You are right Puff, it was a bit harsh, but that guy doesn't have anything to contribute except bad feelings. I seem to be making as many enemies as I am friends in here. I just call it like I see it. I am learning at an incredible rate -- mostly about growing weed, but about people as well. I'm having fun. I have pretty thick skin and a pretty hard head and a lot of life experience, so I kinda do things my own way, but I do listen, and I am ready to admit when I am wrong and change things for the better -- In my grow room and in my life. I feel good inside my skin. I seem to have made an "epic fail" by not believing I had a Ph problem which caused my plant to have an epic fail. I had a sick plant. I didn't need someone in the midst of their third little specialty grow sending me off to buy a Ph meter on line. I needed help with my dying plant. I don't care how popular you are -- if you are wrong you are wrong -- and you should admit you were wrong. Like a man. :)

peace
 
I want to say this and then I'm going to stop beating on this poor dead horse. I read both of Hl's grow journals and was following the third before I ever posted a question in MP. It was his little grows that inspired me to give it a go. I was totally impressed with his ability as a grower, and I still am. But I know a little bit more now than I did in the beginning, and I see now that what HL is doing isn't optimizing the true potiential of the plant. I mentioned it to him once, and he told me he was just growing for a few people so he didn't need a large harvest. Okay. Do it anyway you want, but don't go around making out like you are even close to being a great grower. And don't immediately attack someone's character when their opinion differs from yours -- it's not very mature. :)

enough said.

Peace

Why do you continue to feel the need to attack me?
I mean are you serious? Who the hell said that...Let's rewind here for a minute. You had some problem with your plant and posted some pics and a bunch of us gave our opinion on what we thought it cld be based on our experience. Long story short you take offense some how to this and ask to be given some "latitude". I more than happily gave that to you and did not post another thing in regards to you or about you till you went and decided to take a swipe at me in someone else's Grow Journal. I don't know where you got all this other crazy nonsense from. I am a guy who works close to 60 hours a week and likes to smoke a lil herb when I get home from work to relax and ease the day's tensions. I introduced my wife to MJ and she also has taken a liking to it. It has done tremendous things for her depression. It gets expensive and risky copping off the street and you usually get crap. So I came here in search of the knowledge of how to grow my own. These kind people here helped me learn the ropes and now I am able to more than support our love and habit of smoking MJ. I stick around because one of the great bonuses of coming here to learn was I made some great friends....and I also get to kinda pay it forward by helping when I can and if I can. Nowhere in there is anything about being this "great grower" you seem so obsessed with. It is kinda creepy how you pushed all of this on me....and I don't creep out easy bro. If you hve some obsession with being known as a "great grower" now or someday please don't push it off on me. I am just here for the love of the plant and the great friends I hve made here.
Not sure why you hve blown this into such a huge thing but judging from the pm's and rep comments people hve been leaving me I am not the only one creeped out, and just plain scratching my head wondering what the hell is wrong with you.
 
Now I'm creepy, obsessed, and there is something the Hell wrong with me. Hammy, Bro, No obsession, creepy? ok, I guess that is a matter of opinion, but ok. And it wasn't what was wrong with me Bro, it was about the "advice" I was given by you and the way even though you were wrong, you never were willing to admit it, and it did anger me some to be directed to an internet site to buy a PH meter when all I needed was advice about my sick plant. I tried to tell you-all it wasn't Ph, but I have now become "creepy" and my character has been attacked by you in every post you have written. I don't call you names. I don't acuse you of having "bitchfits" I merely disagreed with you -- and I was correct.

I am happy for you that you have so many friends. I guess I should expect some form of gang mentality. I don't care how you grow Hammy, I do have an opinion though, and it doesn't make me obsessed or creepy, and I have not made an "epic fail." lol. I won't comment about you or the way you grow anymore. I would hope that you will stop attacking my character.

peace
 
There you go again. Out of the blue just kinda pissin on people that tried to help you. I never read once where anyone "attacked your character" until you started making jerkish comments back that experienced growers (noone proclaimed to be great) didnt know what they were talking about and YOU were right blah blah ad infinitum. You still seem to think that. You grow some nice looking buds. I think you flower too early and dont expand the possiblities with your plants. You seem to be proclaiming yourself a great grower. If you know so much why are you here? Would you like a screwdriver to tighten up that screw thats loose? I mean come on now. You like to stir the pot (no pun intended) and I like to call things as i see them. What is wrong with you? I just dont get it.
 
Said I wouldn't come back for fear I'd be "one of them", but man, are you reading the stuff you're putting down?? And why is it so many people see this same thing? We're all biased and siding with our friend....right?

Look back at how active this thread used to be and how many active users are contributing helpful info now....it's all down to a "he said"...flamed on by you, my friend! Come on man, get back to growing.

yip... you'll find yourself gathering negative rep when you throw a bucket full of "F-bombs" out there. "I" don't find it particularly "funny".:) What I do find 'funny', is how soon some seem to become "experts".. ;)
Hemper, every one here is trying to "help" you. It is 'what we do', here. These are the same folks that got you to this point successfully. ALL are experienced and successfull growers "offering" their experience and wisdoms. ALL have mentored others to success. BE APPRECIATIVE...
hammy, jam, ak, roddy, ect... "let it go".. it sounds like him 'n smokster don't want or need your advice.

I'm going to offer two pieces of advice, and I suggest they be heeded. Get this thread back to "about growing".. and "stop the personal insults and name calling"!.. You sound like a bunch of third graders on the playground fer krise sakes.
