Oh...I guess RIU is getting sketchier...this blows

Why must they do this? They should really make junk like this, the ridiculous "tweets" tab, and all the other special interest extras optional
Yeah, and they've never addressed the obvious question: If the goal is to simply confirm who's a real member and who isn't . . . what does a mandatory newsletter have to do with that? How, exactly, does this newsletter with all of the commercial b.s., help determine who's a member when less intrusive measures are available.

This is all about the newsletter and the advertisers being pimped in the newsletter. I've been watching this site deteriorate over the last year or so. I've been to ICMag and it's a decent site. I've never registered because I'm a member here. Why reinvent the wheel. But I will not be "reconfirming" anything.

The security program in my office computer has warned me that RIU is infected with malware and/or associated with malware via 3rd parties. I haven't worried about it really, but this kinda bugs me. They are pretty arrogant about the whole deal. And the way they worded it was assinine.

They are being disingenuous at best. I'm no genius, but that's my opinion.

I agree with you man, things have just been getting steadily worse here but hopefully the admins will get the hint from all these people who made it clear they're ready to jump ship if this BS continues

Pablo, would you be interested in growing out some clones?
Hey billcollecter, I only grow a few plants on my balcony and that's it. Which pretty much rules out starting a regular plant after May, or an auto around July.

Sounds like you're flush with clones! Could a dispensary take some?

By the way, for those of you who have yet to receive the email from RIU regarding reconfirming your membership, here's what it says:

"Hello
Rollitup is proud to inform our members that we are sending the monthly newsletters now on a regular basis, along with HUGE discounts to many online stores. Every member needs to re-confirm to keep your account active. Those unconfirmed accounts will be removed from the list and the username will be released to the public."


Pretty cool of them, huh?

Updated pics of the Kush. More of the main colas have been removed and will probably remove more today. I transferred the first buds I hacked off into a curing jar after being in a paper bag for 1 week.

Now that Fall is here, the summer weather finally showed up. Too late.

So true. Your bud looks delicious though.

Is that Charlotte's Web around your bud or am I getting that string-looking-stuff around your bud mixed up with something else?:leaf:

Look like cat hairs to me :) She is looking good bro, careful it has been extremely humid these last few nights... Question? Why not bring her inside at night, to prevent to much moisture?

Looking good down there pablo. yeah it seems like we're going to have an indian summer, if you will - where it's unseasonably cool during the summer then the fall months seem more like summer weather.

Yep, that's cat hair. As to bringing her inside - it never crossed my mind. SD is usually a fairly arid climate. Just not this year. The thought of dragging that thing in every evening and out every morning doesn't sound that fun. If I'm going to go thru that, I may as well do an indoor grow.

Thanks King. Hah, I actually turned on the a/c today. I figured the thing needed to run for a bit before it just dies from nonuse. But the heat felt good.

Makes sense, i was just thinking it might help during these humid ass nights that we have been having, im not sure how close to the coast you are, but i am hitting 90% humidity almost every night
