Morning O.F.C. !-- I slept in !-- Give me a minute to catch up !--

 

[Rosebud]

Good morning folks,

Ness, the plants can take the 40's with no problem.. We have a tarp over out blue dream because of the rain but I believe marijuana can take a light frost... not a hard freeze, but one or two nights in the 30's i think they would not grow until it warms up in the daytime, but they won't die. So far so good on the windows 10... I miss my mail service though and need to take time to figure that out.

I am happy for your taste in three days of your Aurora... I hope I am on when you taste it... fun stuff. Happy for you ness.

budlight, when you find out you no nothing, that is when the learning begins... you got this.

YD, I think G13 will be back. I hope so.. He needed a time out I think, politics is making us nuts. He is a good guy just passionate about his leanings.

Umbra, how is the job going?

Keef, i am pretty tickled you have such a nice Nurse Larry.

 

[Keef]

Better now !--
Hey Dog good luck with the car !-- I wish one of the car companies would produce a simple car without computers and stuff like that 64 Chevy truck !-- I drove that truck into the ground !-- Everything on the engine was easy to get to ! --I think there would be a market for something like that !-- I have driven some true clunkers !-- My buddy in high school had one and the shifter on the column didn't have a pin to keep it in !--He'd shift gears and lay the shifter on the seat till he needed to change gears !-- He take a sharp turn --Shifter slide off the seat and he have to stop and find his Shifter under the seat before he could go again !-- Never loose the Shifter!

 

[Budlight]

I said that for years Keef if they would come out with an 80 Chevy with fancier interior that thing would out sell any truck on the market people love them because they didn't have to be a mechanic to do a simple oil change or change the spark plugs and stuff like that

 

[Keef]

It was a simpler time Bud !--- In the 70s I used to hang with a guy that bought crates of surplus "Gun Parts"--- We sit around the crate getting high and putting together M-16 -- 1911 service pistol and the odd machine gun parts !-- My man made some good money until they realized what people were doing with those crates and started destroying surplus "Gun Parts" !-- It was around one of those crates that I was introduced to Thai Stick !-- I was not ready for weed like that !--In the army the make U learn to assemble a rifle blind folded !-- They never train U to put them together when U twisted up like that !-- We were putting guns together and after that joint one guy was taking guns apart and putting the pieces back in the crate !
Good Times !

 

[umbra]

Rose, job is going well.

 

[Budlight]

That's awesome Keef I have to agree though it times have definitely changed

Umbra that's awesome that your job is working out good umbra hopefully the stress level in your world has dropped

 

[yarddog]

keef, i will not buy a new car. i would rather spend half the money and rebuild what i have. i am going to restore a civic hatchback for my wife next year. i think i can get it restored completely for 6 grand. so that means i will have a 1998 civic that is essentially brand new. and i can still work on it without needing factory software

 

[Keef]

Dog we drive a 2005-2006 (?) Nissan we bought new - Never had to do anything to it but change fluids and stuff !--Insurance cover my little fender bender repair !- She good !-- Paid it off long time ago !-- We talking about a second car but I learned when I brought my old rusted hoopty truck over from the swamp !--Salt air melted that rusty thing !-- So I want something with no rust !-- When they dragged that old 4 wheel drive truck it left skid marks because the wheels rusted locked to the brake caliper !-- That truck used to be able to jump and stuff !--
I gotta get busy !--I went and got some padded shipping envelopes !-- I gotta print up some labels to these fake addresses ya'll use and they outta here !-- Did the best I could hope --everyone finds a keeper or 2 !

 

[yarddog]

worst thing you can ever do to a vehicle is let it sit. just like us, if a person sites around all the time they age faster. but that salt air is no joke. i bought a 78 chevy truck that tybee island owned. named that truck Ole Rusty

 

[Budlight]

Keef i'm so excited to get those babies popping

 

[Keef]

I'm on it Bud !--
Ya'll some wild people up in here !-- Getting the labels ready and decided to just out somebody !-- Barney Fife ?-- I'm sure that's your real name !-- U know who U are !-- Nice choice !-- I hope they don't ever trace the seed shipments back to me !-- The return addy ? -- That's not me or my address !-- Once I drop them off I got no more connection to them !-- Got thru everytime so far !
Wood Hippy -- I got U some when U ready ! O.K. one more toke maybe 2 then back to it !-- Get this errand done !

 

[Kraven]

I hid out on tybee island while going to ground in the mid 90's, it was the first place i ever tried shrooms....good times, being off the grid was like the war and it just felt right at the time.

 

[Keef]

Kraven -- Off the grid means different stuff to different people !-- I learned in the aftermath of Katrina what I can do with very little to work with !-- Generator went out before the storm ended !-- Never trust a generator !-- Anyway !-- Off the grid to me means I got a Deep cycle marine battery or 2 -- a solar panel or 2 -- Maybe a car alternator and a DC/AC inverter !-- I'll have some power !-- Growing up at our hunting and fishing camps we always ran DC bulbs off a car battery !-- We had lights !-- Full size Propane stove with a tank of gas for it !-- We also always had running water !-- Gravity fed from elevated 55 gallon drums !-- and a Sink ! -- I know how to go to ground !--

 

[St_Nick]

Keef,Kraven, Rose, Ydog, Bud, Ness and anyone I missed, G'day! Ness, I'm in the mountains and it has been in the hi 3o's lo 40's. I pulled mine when the leaves started wilting. We went from 70's at nite to the 3o's and it stopped all the growth. Good luck.

 

[Keef]

Seeds Away !-- Outta my hands now !-- Let me know when they get there !--

 

[St_Nick]

In my mind off the grid meant lost to the world. That's why I lived in a fifth wheel for 5 years. Used to move every month or so. I was growing in a closet with fluorescent lights back then.

 

[Keef]

That works too Nick !-- Off the grid don't mean U clothed in animals rubbing sticks together to make fire !
We grow weed and my daddy said money don't grow on trees but he was wrong !---
Another thing I had a blackout from my head injury today and when I came to someone had started 3 gallons of Pear wine !-- Can't remember a dam thing !-- Ain't that something ?

 

[Keef]

Nick -- We didn't talk about it but U might want to watch the mail later this week !---Cane too !--

 

[umbra]

That's awesome Keef I have to agree though it times have definitely changed

Umbra that's awesome that your job is working out good umbra hopefully the stress level in your world has dropped

Thanks Bud. I used to be a lot more stressed than I am now, if you can image that. Seriously heavy stress in my marriage. Then raising 2 boys who got in a lot of trouble. The list goes on and on. I had too many things all at the same time. Even a friend who betrayed me, and stabbed me in the back. But most of that stuff is sorted. I need to work. It's not just about money, its about who I am. I have never made a living from growing cannabis. Life's little bumps put me in that situation where I needed to make money from my growing. I am in a state that does allow for a legal business to do so. It was just that my scaling up to commercial level growing, and the quality required here in california, have been more than I expected. Without having to focus on making money from growing allows me to continue dialing in the grow. And that is what I really want to focus on.
