I love it. When I was younger me and my dad would race outside after the first snow to play.

I live in the mountains and I will take my little fwd mazda where most people won't go with awd or 4x4.

I do keep a set of polypropylene thermals and blanket and set of chains in the vehicles.
Bumper skitchin'! Hell yeah!

Silly me. I was assuming he would go to the mountains including in the winter.
Yes, silly you.
Living in the mountains and passing through are different. One can live in Colorado with out chains and snow tires.
Shit, I lived in the mountains (7,500') for about 5 years and never had chains or any problems with frozen fuel lines etc.
Heet is expensive isopropyl alcohol.


Plus I forgot everyone drives with the skills you have living there.
A lot of people do not know how to drive on ice and snow. You sarcasm is stupid.


So he should go with a RWD 2WD car with bald tires and he will be good to go.
lol, you are a precious child.

I know you think I suck because of some comment I made in TC one day when I was drunk..I've been growing for 11 years (for a living) I literally have hundreds of grows under my belt, and a ton posted here on RIU under odanksta and MOG..I have posted 70% of my grows since 08. There is a point where there isn't a whole lot more to learn. It's a plant, not rocket science. Yes y'alls environment sucks for indoors and outdoors. Regardless I am not growing for anybody else so I could care less about my attitude. But to say "every coloradan" knows more then me, first is a cocky generalization, second it is simply rude and false. There is no secret hidden growing techniques that are Exclusive to Colorado growers only. As your statement goes to prove my point further.

When it comes to growing you reap what you sow. You get back what you put in.

My old user name.. I wrote this thread 7 years ago with a buddy. If anyone wants to question my knowledge

There are a LOT of shitty growers in Colorado.

About the only thing different in CO is the indigenous soils and the humidity. I know a grower who cures in a few days and the stuff flies out the door.
It isn't rocket science you're right about that. Shit I could train a fourth grader to do it.
The rents ARE through the roof, but the thing that finally did me in was I think the whole friggin place in built on Indian bones...everywhere I turned
I was met with bad luck and grief. On a good note the people in Denver are some of the kindest I've met anywhere. I will go back to visit but I'm bringing a talisman to ward off the evil spirits.
On a side note I did just get approved for my AZ med card. Yay me. The Mexican shwag here is just awful.
There is no such thing as luck or evil spirits.
It usually takes 4 days for me to dry plants and then a week to cure. It is too fucking dry here. Someday I will have a RH and temp controlled drying/curing room.

One hundred million A DAY would definitely get their undivided attention.

IDGAF how much power they have; that it's too much and they aren't paying their fair share of the costs is exactly the point!
here's how it would go down for big oil: ok, we'll pay 100million per day. 3 months later, there is an "unexpected" maintenance issue at our refinery so we are cutting production. gas goes back up to $4 a gal and now they are profiting 101million per day.

i wouldn't mind so much getting fucked over if they at least gave me a reach around. lol.

He's a fucking squirrel anyway. As a former ER RN I have heard all the same shit from people while they are laying n a gurney. They sure did know better and that is why they ended up in my ER waiting for x-rays or sutures or OR for ortho fixation. True experts all.

He's definitely angry at something, although I'm still wondering why my "respone" was brought up even if I never touched this thread. Or maybe I'm just not understanding something?

You can't take seriously anyone encouraging a Texan to move to Colorado and then forget all about winter safety and prep. He's a squirrel. Who cares if you use it all just once? The guy says he has to go to work to make money and that means getting there without excuses. No experience in snow and this yahoo says screw snow tires etc. Now who sounds stupid in this gig?

You have no idea what you are talking about.
I never said to not prep for winter driving, idiot.
I did say that you were completely overstating what is needed to prepare for winter in the Front Range.

The average high temp in December is about 42. We have many nights in the Winter that do not get below freezing.
If the OP were moving to Leadville I would have a different set of advice.

Go ahead and buy HEET moron. It is isopropyl alcohol but costs 3x more.

the friends with the warehouse are mutual...supposedly the ones you grew up with. so why did they invite your brother and not you to join the team? and why would your brother say you can't work at the warehouse for fear of you fucking up when you've supposedly been growing for 11 years and know all there is to know...? it seems either your brother or friends or both think you're incompetent.

I believe he was offered the job before his brother.. He turned it down and a year later his brother accepted said offer.

Well that's one assumption. However, consider if the individual in question already had a successful op going at home and would be taking a pay cut to make the jump?
