Long day. It took some effort to talk to my son about his issues. He will do his own thing from now on. He felt that he transplanted 60% of the plants the last time and that the division of labor wasn't fair. Now he gets to do 100% for himself. He believes I am too old to care for myself. I think he's full of it. We will see in a couple months after the next harvest.

U can lead a horse to water but U can't make him drink !--Sounds like it might be time for him to be on his own !--Doesn't look like U need a lot of help to me Umbra !-- So this Key Lime Cherry Pie thing U got going --Indica ? -Sativa ? --How's it grow ? --Heavy producer ? Early -late finisher ? --I ask because if they like it there ,they'll like it here ! --I'll feel better when brother Umbra gets a break in life !

Giggy -Those brickweed seed U sent me for tetra practice !--
I know U crowded for space Cuz !-- U do things the way U have to --I tell U the way I do not to try to get U to change --Just hope maybe something I say might be adapted to what U doing !
I just need time Hopper to find a freak with a desirable twist --I'll need a Texas quality control agent !-- Worse thing that could happen is I have to extract GG#4 crossed on my T.E. Queen !-- I could settle for that !

wow brother i had forgot about that. they say the first thing to go is the mind. or was it vision, or was it hearing. nope not hearing cause mine is selective hearing.

 

[Rosebud]

Umbra, aren't you like in your 50's? Ok, now he is starting to tick me off too. LOL

 

[Keef]

I ran across them today and thought why not !-- It's warming up so I'll clean out a planter or two outside --Treat the seed and put them out there !--When they come up I'll be able to I.D. any tetras before they get too big ---Dig them up and get them settled in Happy Frog and find out when U want your tetras ! ---Gonna need a name !---There's enough there that I should be able to shake something loose !

[Keef]

Rose calm down we don't need to have to come bail U outta jail for beech slapping Umbra's son !----Then U would be in "Group W" with the rest of us !

I'm 58. But when you're 21 that does seem old. Yeah Keef, I think it is time for him to strike out on his own. He doesn't make enough money to do it though, so he is frustrated. I don't think it is too tough to do what I ask him. And truthfully, I wouldn't ask him to do anything I wouldn't do. Yes maybe he did a little more than his share of the grunt work, but considering he doesn't pay rent, I didn't think it was unreasonable. It's not like he did more than his share for 5 grows a year for the last 10 years. These kinds of conflicts tear me apart because you already know how its going to turn out.

 

[Keef]

I was a veteran at 21 !---Sign the boy up !-- The Army can teach him a trade !--- I'm serious !--A military base is like a small city every trade in civilian life has a military equivalent! --Not everyone is a combat troop !--They got everything but pot farmers !

 

[Keef]

Umbra --Can the boy deal weed ? ---Hey don't judge it's a grey area !--Who knows that might be his calling !--Send him out with a quarter lb. On Friday night and tell him how much U want for it !--Leave him some room to turn a profit !---U get your money he gets another quarter lb. !

 

[umbra]

Keef, the cherry limeade is a hybrid maybe 60/40 indica. Not a huge yielder. 8 to 9 weeks. It's the taste. I mentioned NCH's GSC has a sharp taste, this has that sharp taste. While they don't taste the same, they have a very loud taste. My son wouldn't make it 1 day in the military. He has a learning disability that is amplified if anyone yells at him. It's an auditory processing delay issue.

He already is pursuing that idea. I prefer the dispensaries.

 

[Keef]

I'm sure U would prefer selling legally to dispeneries but if he can move some let him !-- If he gets caught what's the penalty a ticket ?---He like to be boss he can middle man for some dealers !---I worked 3 back in the day !--Make more on the weekend than I did at my welding machine shop job !--- but that's where my dealers worked !----What I did was break an quarter lb. Into 5 bags --I said this is what I want four these 4 bags --The fifth is yours !---Bring me my money and I'll give U another quarter lb !--- Worked quite well for us all !--- And the kilos flowed !---Cuz used to deliver to my house on his chopper and had no problem taking a check !---Of course I had enough sense not to write the man a hot check !--When he came in with a load he would have everyone buying to be at his house when he rolled up !--People with cash money in they pocket and most were probably armed !--Once he called me back to the kitchen where deals went down and told me !---Did U see that big biker chick ? -- He said I don't have enough for everyone and if U go back thru there she will take your sh** !--- I'm not proud !--I climbed out the kitchen window with my pound and snuck to the car !

 

[Keef]

In a different world I would have already been after a pound from Umbra and Kraven too happily paying market price !--- It's a shame that I can afford it but can't have it !---A pound would get me over the top and into weed Independence !--but instead I gotta buy brick and contribute to the cartels !--Now that sucks !

 

[Hippie420]

Ever think about flying into Denver, buying one, and shipping it back to yourself?

 

[Keef]

Yep ! But I can't buy a lb. From a dispenser for $10 a gram !-- Fly to Denver --buy a pound and ship it back to myself ?----Including the ticket and the price I would have to pay sounds like U just making fun of me !

 

[ness]

Nes do U know about revegging ? --U can do this with only one grow area !--When U harvest leave some green on the plant and turn the light on for 24 hours straight then put them back on 18 hours ---If U leave enough and didn't let it go too long it will begin to put on leaves again when it is healthy again --send it to bloom again !

Keef thank you for the info. I got to write this down. Coffee is brewing. :joint4:

Do you guys realize how lucky your are to be able to get great genetics from your friends and then grow them bieutiful ladies out to their potential??? I miss it so much, ,i wanna cry sometimes. And then my Granddaughter jumps up on my lap (Ouch) gives me a big hug and kiss,,and then i forget all my pain. Lol
I surely miss my favorite hobby in the world though, ,thats for sure . You guys remind me everyday how bad i miss it. Asshats lol

I am so glad I found this place. It was Kraven who told me about curmudgeonland, thank you Kraven. I guess I am lucky, I never dream of have such good info about growing. With the help of you guys. Thank You

Nes, take a small fan, turn it on low, and place it close enough that it barely wiggles the seedlings. Those stems will thicken up quickly.

Hippie, I do have a fan blowing a little on my grow. Thank You

Hey Giggy --Remember that sack of seed U sent me once ? -- Got enough so I make a tetra out of them !---This is where Acupulco Gold came from --Let's see what happens !
