Fermenting this lemonade has proved to be a little difficult!

lil trick for that, buy this, it's what I have been using for over 30 years. It can take up to 19.3 % ETOH in your mash, so it will come off almost twice as hot. Peace

yes Keef ,
during awake brain surgery, they would ask me to use my pointer then my pinky then use my arm to push against theirs , then pull against it
I don't remember moving my foot but I think I had to, also tell them where we were my name and birth date.

I also remember "waiting for the sample" and having a difficult time with the breathing tubes down my throat and how cold the air was passing my throat
I had to stay very focused and calm not to freak out / become very uncomfortable... they pined my ear back when they flipped me over which I remember being less then "great"
then I also remember when they would "irrigate" and how cold it felt; cold and wet is how my brain felt

:48:

 

[Kraven]

What you don't remember is when they would ask you to do something they were trying to define margins by using current, so sometimes you would get stuck (actions halted) and have no knowledge of it

You did good Joe, it was a tough surgery. It is very scary to be put to sleep then brought back and then put back down again...you handled it with poise and grace. Now lets hope that the results come back benign and you just have a really cool tale to tell 30 years from now.

Joe listen to those around U about your behavior !-- It's hard to see changes from the inside !-- If U don't eat weed start !-- It will help the brain heal faster and protect it from damage from swelling that can happen !--

Kraven is this the same kind of yeast or are they different ?

[Keef]

I had a scary experience during a brain surgery once !-- Wall mounted microscope caught on fire about halfway thru the surgery !--We wasn't going nowhere so the doctor politely said somebody better put the dam fire out !-- No we were not gonna leave the patient and no the doctor wasn't polite !-- I was too busy to be talking! --
Kraven how U know about that electro probe ?

 

[Keef]

It was shortly after that incident that we had the fire safety meeting I got kicked out of !-- Apparently "F"ing Big Ones ---is not the proper answer to the question --- What kind of steps do U take in a hospital fire !

 

[Kraven]

Keef I'm an Ortho/ Neuro Nurse, part of getting the cert. was a few shadows in the OR, so I have scrubbed in on two intraoperative brain mappings for resections myself.

And yup, thats the old stand by...seems you either got good instincts or a good teacher?

.

I'm noticing a few things here and there such as I'm holding my glass at an angle or when reaching for something I'll be a bit off or it feels "odd" in my hand
I also think I'm using my left hand more nowadays

As far as I know, the tumor was on my motor and speech center , dominant side.

I am always trying to learn from others experiences and or pass on my own, so trust me,
I will advise my wife to watch my temper for me / in the background
and one way or the other I will get enough weed to make a batch of useful canna-butter ASAP

:48:

 

[Keef]

Joe eat some weed too !-- I just decarb trim and pack it into empty gel caps and have a dose with food or a spoon of coconut oil !-- Any oil will work !-- Find your own dose !-- U want a dose that will slow U down some but not knock U out !-- If U want to take fewer caps U can make them from bud like Cane does !-- I take about 3 every doses a day !--

Kraven I knew U were Orthopedic but didn't know about neuro !-- Amazing stuff ain't it ?-- What was tough scrubbing for surgery was having to go from general to ortho to neuro to who knew next ?-- I seem to always be the one helping patch up the train wrecks !-- That does not mean they were truly in a train wreck but when someone done emptied a magazine into your happy a**--- usually U shot all over !-Lots and lots of trauma !-- I've seen things some of U would recognize from your nightmares !-- Except I had to function while I trying to save someone who looks like they just got chewed up and spit out !-- They don't always make it !

I want to skip the DWC totes this next run

I have one hippy slayer that could be an 80% healthy flip "tomorrow"
and a bunch of beans I bought over the years I've grown

YES I know I could be gifted clones but I think I want to do this run this way
thinking four 5 gallon buckets with 6" net pots and full clay beads.
in a 3x3 tent

I could water to drain fairly easily I imagine
really fill-out 4 plants, enjoy/use the extra sugar leaf and popcorn for butter etc

:48:

 

[mrcane]

Keef......word.

Cane, whatever became of the OD you had going?

[Keef]

Hey Kraven when I started in the O.R. it was before the time of scopes !-- Have U ever even seen a meniscus knife ?-- We used to have to make a 10 inch incision just for any knee surgery !-- We did it all thru a some by the time I fell !-- All the irrigation fluid and I came around the corner too fast with trash bags in my hands !-- Then lights out !-- I think !-- It's all kinda fuzzy ! -- So they peeled off my face and put ole Humpty Dumpy back together again !--3 metal plates and a fist full of screws !-- Looks almost like nothing ever happened on the outside !-- Inside is broke in more ways than one !--

 

[mrcane]

Good evening O F C...best I got out of the O.D.was the Nurse Larry. Hippies Dawg is starting to cure up pretty good .Just .Had to take everything to early...Weather!!!.........:48:

 

[Keef]

I don't know Joe U can rock some DWC !-- My problem with drip to drain or even hydro was the res having to be lower than the grow pot so it would drain properly !-- I could use that room on the top end !-- I'm still flipping 13-14 inch clones that been topped and I take cuts about what 3 weeks into bloom so they bush naturally !-- Instead of one big plant I just run several smaller ones ! -- I guess it is 6 of one and half dozen of the other !-- U do what ever please U Joe !-- I've seen your work --No doubt it will rock whatever U choose to do !-- One day I need to explore other ways of growing--- aero is just all I know !

 

[umbra]

Those look nice Keef.. Happy you have that.

I am going to go smoke myself to sleep.

larry's berries LOL See you guys in the morning, a new day... i like that. Had a lot of fun with my company it is just tired out.

Umbra, do you remember Mojave mamma ? I was sad to learned she had passed away. Remember her sprouting seeds in her bra? I liked her a lot.. she was a special lady growing pot in THAT desert.

Yes I remember when she did that. I am sorry to hear of her passing.

 

[Keef]

Hey U know those indicas we were having trouble with ? -- Did U know if U back the light up off them some they green right up !-- Didn't have nothing to do with nutes !-- Light was too close !-- Soon I want to start messing with some bloom nutes so I can grow some of those baby sized buds like that video link Umbra posted ! -- I just need a Frankenplant to grow like that !--

 

[Keef]

Dog --You've twisted a wrench or 2 -- Next time U get bored look up "Pulse Jet" --It's Hitlers old Stove pipe jet !-- Got no moving parts !-- I think we need to build one !-- I been fighting it but I been feeling the need for speed ! -- I still have a dream of building my wet heat engine !-- It's my version of the obsolete steam torpedo engine !-- They did not have to tech to take it where it could go !-- A one ton torpedo jumped 45 feet out the water ? -- I need to ride one !-- Just me in a light boat making it scream !
