So weird you mentioned that. Same thing happened to us.Had to have been from the ash..
Fuck a duck did you dodge one there bro! Wow that was close wasn't it!

On a side note, you guys can get permitted where you're at right? Of course it's a no go in this fucked up conservative county i live in. Why didn't i just buy over where you're at? I'm lame! We had our fun, but fuckin shit!

I never really did take that many pics of our outdoor crops, kinda wish I did now. Had to search for this one that i had posted a few years ago.
Here's one from about the same time as right now. We had a few of these spots. Lots of work. That part I actually kinda miss. We had lots of fun the crew and I. Until chop time. Oh fuck me I don't miss that shit! Lol

5-10 lb'ers lot's of bomb diggity strains. No green crack and blue dream shit. Grown up at around 3000' elevation.
The front row was blue knight. Finished hella early. I miss that strain. Super potent early finishing hard to trim strain. Finished mid Sep. sold for almost indoor prices :-) we only averaged around 3lb's from that one

fix it job today. 3 windows were pretty amateurishly installed. naturally, i had the one above the kitchen sink. the one everyone sees all the time and was of course the most fucked up.

hint - there is only so much that caulk can do, lesser-installer friend. but i saw how hard you tried.

spent the whole day removing every last thing he did, scraping and cleaning the frame he covered in caulk. reverse engineering a jamb to fit a casing, scraping and removing caulk from his casing then resanding edges smooth on painted trim by hand, re-installing the window against the new jamb and case, and completely tearing off and redoing an exterior finish in which he finally decided that caulk was not the best thing in the world.

i redid his finish on the archtop window in the living room too. he literally stuffed paper towels into a massive gap between the window and wall so he would have something to caulk against. they provide us with quarter round trim for these windows to close that gap since they carefully undersize the window to fit the archtop opening. maybe he fucked his trim all up? it's tough to cut odd angles on arched pieces of quarter round.

anyhoo. if you fuck up your work, don't try to hide it all with caulk you dumb assholes.

You seem displeased that you got to spend the day playing with another man's ample caulk. Was any of it purple, and bulbous?

You might want to recommend the use of backer rod to the rookie for when he needs to bust out his caulk into big gaping holes next time. Stuff the rod in first!
Check out these dirty pics illustrating the use of backer rod

Finished the little wall by lunchtime.

spent the rest of the day hauling bales of ProMix to the new planter walIs. Now, I'm fucking tired and burnt out. 60 lb. bales.
View attachment 3985527
And tiny little 40 lb. sacks of top soil.
View attachment 3985529
That top soil is some seriously black dirt. Looks nice right now.
Didn't wet the Pro Mix, supposed to rain soon today and big rain tomorrow.
I'm ready for it.

Ever trim cut stone with a rotary masonry saw? All you have to do is hold your breath.

Slows traffic the fuck down. Idiots go too fast there anyway. Lol.
Damn, could have saved you a few pennies by teaching you Huggelculter (hill culture).
You basically fill the bottom part of the hole with logs and wood pieces, then fill the rest up.

I don't get how people are such hacks sometimes. I'm no carpenter, but when I replaced my basement windows , I didn't find it all that difficult to build a new frame to fit the smaller windows I needed after having to fix the slope of the sill..:roll:. At least they caulked that guys, I had 4" wide trim over gaps stuffed with fiberglass. Did i mention hacks?

Did some more pointing today on a job I've been on and off on.. I really need to rebuild a pier that started falling apart as soon as I chipped away some mortar. The owners really need to figure out what they want for it. I'm trying to talk them into brick so it really stands out lol.
IMG_20170728_113053.jpg it'll look a lot better once it's acid washed..

Here's the old point
IMG_20170728_113107.jpg
Whoever did that work should be shot..

Here's the pier that started collapsing last week when I was chipping mortar
IMG_20170728_112929.jpg
It's load bearing.. there is no metal in it.. no wood.. just shit mortar and weak stone. Amazed it hasn't collapsed on it's own by now..

And @Aeroknow I forgot to take a pic when I had it out.. but here's a pic of my beautiful wheel barrow
IMG_20170728_112905.jpg
Next time I'll get a better pic. But it's a really nice wheel barrow.. only slightly leaks and leans only a little bit to one side. Had to brace it for extra sturdiness. And wheel isn't flat. So if I put it on Craigslist I'd say it's like new

I have a buddy who is worried as hell. The fire came rite up to his grow and actually fucked up several of his girls..He's just super worried now because that obviously brought every kind of law enforcement straight to his plot....He called me for help but I wasn't able to go....I feel for all the people being effected by that fire.....




Beautiful girls in the pic BTW.
I love and hate breaking the ladder out....last year I literally trapped myself up on the ladder....I was staking and tying plants in the evening while it was cool out....ended up tying and staking/blocking my exit route off the ladder..lol..:cuss:...I was pissed and laughing at the same time....I know better than to get stoned before gardening...especially on the ladder....at my greenhouses I would never have that problem....but I like to do a few behind the ranch house my brother rents each year ....different strains,clones etc etc...plus il try different shit ....my experimental garden is what I call it ......anyways the peak of the roof is 15 ft ....that was the lanky ass sativa I trapped myself tying while stonedimage.jpg
These plants don't get near the attention and training they should...but it's nice to try new strains and techniques out.... and have a little extra smoke as well.......I'm only growing one little tiny plant this year ...it's name is Gary ........maybe next year il have a nice garden ....but this year its just me and baby Gary.....GL with your garden.
