By no means an optimal run.. next one will be more organised
Hey bro! What's up? I'm back from the dead. Literally. Me and the wife were coming back from visiting our boy who's in the Navy and we got rear-ended by a tractor trailer. They had to cut me out and then give me CPR before being medevac'd to the ER. Glad I was driving an ex cop car. They have a metal plate in the seats to prevent somebody stabbing a cop. It saved us. I didn't remember my own name for almost 3 weeks. My kid was at my parents thank God. The car was pancaked behind our seats so my kid woulda died. I lost my old email and just remembered this forum the other day. Came home and found my Mom had discovered my garden and actually watered it while we were in the hospital. Anyways that's what's up. Hope ya been doing alright. One never knows what tomorrow is gonna bring.

Great mom!! Back in the day when it was really illegal my mom held a kilo for me LOL some moms are the best.
You are correct ma'am. I have been experimenting on mixing up my medium. I layer in 2 thin layers of Dr. Earth and worm castings. I was hoping I'd only have to add small amounts of liquid nutes. Well Mom had no idea bout that. I can't believe she watered them but that was it. These autos are tough! They stunted a tad but look great. Heck I had forgotten I even had a garden so this was a jaw dropper. Thank you Mom!

Yeah man , I don't remember any of like 3 weeks there. I got a helicopter ride and don't even remember lol. My Labrador/Pitbull somehow made it out from the now flattened rear seat. Someone took 14 grams of dank outta my pocket but they saved my life so I hope they like it! I just remembered RIU the other day and I still had to search and figure my own screen name then find the people I talk to and it's not like I have tons. You, BudzBuddha and Curious2Garden are about it alot of times. Shout-out to C2G cause she shouted to me and helped me get grounded. I feel the love. I can't believe Mom came in my house and watered my plants lol. This last grow was an experiment on my soil. I mixed up a little bit of a bunch of things I have. I'm placing some thin layers of Dr Earth and Worm castings and another thing or 2. It's a success I guess because I have 3 plants almost ready. Mephisto gave a free 5 pk of new Mango Haze crosses and they're ready. I'm just wanting about 20 percent amber on these 2. The other is half Hubbabubbahaze descent so I'm not sure how it's gonna go. Least I remembered what I'm doing growing before harvest lol. Yesterday my wife asked me to make some cannabutter and I realized I didn't remember. It's been like back when I ate Xanax's. I just randomly have forgotten stuff. Hey, Google Wreck Interstate 58 Suffolk VA 4/24/24. You have to scan through a few news stations coverage but they show our car on a few. Or the half that wasn't flattened anyhow lol. It's worth a look. Glad I remembered RIU and my friends! Peace dude! See ya later

Be kind to yourself and take it slow and easy my friend.. I’m really glad you’re ok. Glad your soil stuff is working out.. did you end up getting some Bodhi seeds in the end? That’s about where we left off a month ago..

I’ve got a new light coming too, just ordered a fc1000 from marshydro.. going to see how hard I can push these girls next run, planning on running around 1800-2000ppfd with 1700ppmco2, temp @30-35C, 80%humidity and blowing a gale with airflow.. see what happens..

I wasn't planning on making the trip. Wifey went to Norfolk to see our sailor before he left for Japan. She left on Greyhound bus. They cancelled her home bus at last minute. I had stayed home to take care of our 11 yr. old who still had a few weeks of school. If not for Mom being around and able to get him from the bus stop then I woulda had to get him from school and he woulda been buckled into that back seat. Thank God for Mom! I was getting ready to order some Bodhi gear and I still plan to. This mess not only messed my head and car but we got broke fast. But hey, we're still here and I get to harvest plants this week. Hey, I lost my old phone which has all my research on it. Can you tell me any of his best indica strains to order? Forgive me if I've already asked but I'm needing stuff for pain and rest for the foreseeable future. My harvest is haze strain crosses and I fear they may be too racy. Hey thanks for the well wishes! We are greatly appreciative to everyone for those. Hey check what we survived... Just got these from our lawyer. Yeah I'm needing to start up some new cannabis. Any recommendations on STRONG indicas from Bodhi would be great.

You had decided on black triangle and blueberry hashplant. I just checked the messages discussing it with you.

Those are still in the hopechest but my general lack of funds and the surprise gift from a friend og

I still plan on trying them if for no other reason than the fact that you spoke highly of them. I'm so broke right now I just can't afford em. But, luck cut me a break. A good friend is helping me out. Some Bodhi gear. To make it sweeter, Blueberry Hashplant is a parent. I just have to get the grow space light proofed. I've only run a few photos there. Dude I was trying to remember which strains I was eyeing of his so you helped me out. It's crazy all the things that I have forgotten since the wreck. At least growing wasn't one lol. I cut 1 Mango Macaw today and the other plus another Mephisto Half- Sativa should be ready in the next 5 days. So I'll have space for photos. Everyone I talk to that's ran Bodhi gear has nothing but good to say. Taste is something I've been working on and his strains rank high from my research. I'm just glad to have something to run period. Let alone a wish list strain. I'm psyched.

I appreciate it man. I don't want to be a bum though. The few of y'all that are my friends , I'm just happy to still be able to talk to ya. Those are some nice plants! I can't remember if you mentioned what strains you running this time. Looking mighty good though. I have tried to befriend you peeps that know a lot more about growing than me. It's a great hobby and the more I learn, the farther I realize I need to go. I appreciate the knowledge and the friendship from you all! Y'all few know who you are. Thanks for being my friend!

Offers there if you want buddy.
The flower room is mostly super critical this time round, I’m phasing it out and going with some new untried strains..and in the veg room I’m really hoping this Blockberry/superboof x super buff cherry comes through with the goods.. also got some Bodhi deep line alchemy#4 in there.. and 1 Bodhi space cowboy.

Just got taught something cool I thought I’d share, haven’t tried it yet but sounds like it would work. I was just having a whinge about growing out regs and not knowing if they are males or fems.. mate said that they sometimes show sign under the 5th node but a better way is to take a small cutting and chuck it in water, put it in a dark cupboard for 8 hours then light for 12/12 and watch it show sex within a day or two. Sounds great!
(And I found 3 males with sex showing when I looked at the 5th node!)

That's a damned good idea. I've been thinking about how to find male plants faster and managing to produce pollen without totally seeding every bud. I understand that Bodhi gear is typically " never been feminized". I would like to get a bit of pollen. With results that quick I might be able to commandeer a closet or other space for a week or so. I still have the old quantum boards I started with sitting in a closet. Thanks for the tip!

Don’t quote me on this as I haven’t mucked about with pollen yet, but I think if your raising a male for pollen in the same house you will want to grow it isolated in something like a sealed clear plastic tub to stop it pollinating everything.. and it probably won’t need a light, so long as you are keeping the correct light schedule you could use natural light and just cover/uncover the tub it’s in with a blanket to keep it 12/12.
Again, haven’t done it.. but it’s on the to do list.

Have you looked into their "adlite" supplement bars yet? I have a few fc8000s I added the old uv45(uva and ir) bars to and was blown away by the difference....the new bars are better because they can be controlled independently.
Nice work!
