You would need to suffer from Asperger's and Bi-Polar disorder as the first entries on your medical chart, peppered with a rich history of more interesting states of mind. Personally I would not wish it on my worst enemy, but yeah, reefer is a beautiful thing for me that I do get to experience in ways many never will.
Ahhh I was unaware of this wondered how you came to all these crazy descriptions

Not talkin shit, but you have been invited to the beach/ballpark and been like "no can do.. got plans(garden)"? Gotta be a warehouse or something for real..
I have no idea what you're talking about. Sounds non-Bodhi related, so why don't you send my p-mail some info. I'll be delighted to respond there, if called for.

I quoted you where you spoke about beaches and ballparks.. Doesn't require much elaboration or further communication so I'll try to wrap it up quick.. I was saying I hope your grow wasn't keeping you from having a good time..

ego much?

OK, got it.

I missed the question mark, and read it as a statement : "...but you have been....". Sorry about that. To answer your question, it's surely no warehouse. Two small bloom areas, and two veg / sex tents / feeder areas.. But all hydro, and all set up for different days of maintenance, as the idea was to never have a vacancy in either bloom room. A staggered perpetual harvest, sort of, that doesn't lend itself to long absences. For many reasons, I wouldn't leave a grow in the hands of friends or others to maintain any more than you likely would.

Thanks BigWorm. Sounds like I need to add a pack of that BM 97 x Purpl sat NL5. I will look into it a little more, but what did you enjoy about it the most? I am thinking of running some Dream Lotus this next round. Was thinking Blueberry HP but then figured why not just the regular Dream since that's what I wanted the most.

And ya know if you had all your plants set up right and far enough from the lights in their veg stage, growing in organic soil where you could feed just regular water. You could pretty much take a month vacation if you had water pipes over each bucket and have it come on at a certain time via timer. Or simplest way is have a family member you trust come and water them 2-3 times a week. During a stage that you don't need to mess with them much. Once I add everything to my soil mix. Well really just Promix BX/HP with added perlite, tons of earth worm castings, bone/blood meal, etc they stay healthy the whole cycle really with just water. But I like to add other organic nutes along the way to give them some boost. I would love to do hydro myself, there are just times I can not monitor everything every day and it would scare me to leave it alone for longer then that.

I do wish you guys the best of luck though, I really hope everything works out for you all and you enjoy your free time! I'm sure you will.

Love Dream Lotus. Checks all of the boxes.

Thanks Stow! how many did you grow out just the 1? I know Bodhi used both the indica cut and also the Santa Cruz sativa BD cut. The sativa cut is suppose to be the special one. It just sucks that out of 10 seeds only 5 females on average, and only 2 maybe 3 of those will have the Sativa cut instead of Indica cut. And then out of those you gotta find one that leans more towards the BD instead of the SL - which shouldn't be hard. Just makes it popping more beans to get the pheno you want compared to most others since there is 2 mommas. But hey, maybe that indica cut isn't as bad as others say it is. I bet it is done quicker and yields better.

Shit Al, sorry to hear that. But, you're a good man/husband/father to make this difficult choice. Family comes first.

I wouldn't be growing either if I weren't in a medical state. If I didn't have a family I would roll the dice, but not when loved ones depend upon me.

Looking forward to your next grow.... Hopefully sooner rather than later.

Edit: I will set some Fat Marty gear aside for you. :-)
Damn that sucks ass bro but I understand and feel you all the way. Believe me bro I know as I've pondered this decision many times and more recently than ever since I have major space and my plant numbers are getting up there. I ha a discussed this with the Mrs and she doesn't want to move so she has accepted my growing.

Believe me I hate this as I don't want my family caught in the middle of anything that may go down but they know for a fact that I won't let them go down for anything. I'm very private so I feel I'm pretty safe but you never know. Your a great man bro cus even tho I hate having to do this where my family is I don't think I can stop lol and not because I'm trying to make money cus I have a great job that takes care of everything and some but it's really my passion plus I need good meds and the streets suck unless you really know someone so I applaud you for making this decision. Can't wait to see you back in action again cus you grow some straight dank. Come through and check in from time to time. Peace
You know what... you actually inspired my final decision... I myself am just a tad jaded with growing right now, like my hobby has gone past being a hobby and is eating too big a chunk of my life... which really belongs to my family... I will pack up once this last run is done too. Take a fat break, get back into it on a truly MICRO scale later and not allow it to explode out. I am even bored with toking. It takes some really phenomenal herb to satisfy me. I am grateful that I have that herb. It will last quite some time. I will keep myself occupied with bean collecting in the mean time that only takes an hour a day of reading up andnlooking at pics and fiddling with the cart contents lol. All the best to you and your family sir!
This had to be tough. You're one of the [extremely] good guys on this forum, and a killer grower. I applaud you for having your priorities in order, amigo.

Then there's this:



I could have written that post almost word for word, especially...
"my hobby has gone past being a hobby and is eating too big a chunk of my life", and
"I am even bored with toking."

Who'd have imagined either of those things could be true a year ago....but I've been more than contemplating both those ideas for a while. In fact, I've permanently shut down 1 of 2 bloom areas, and the second [ tent] will be dismantled after the 4 girls inside finish - less than 2 weeks. That will leave only 4 Bodhi testers going that should be showing sex any day. They can finish in a small veg tent. After that, I have no grow plans, really, and expect the freedom of not having to tend the garden to be very liberating. Beaches and ballparks await !
You guys are all the reason that I come here to share my experiences with this plant. Thanks for the kind words everyone, they mean so much to me. This has been really hard, but feeling the love and seeing that many of you are in the same boat or similar is truly uplifting. I'll definitely be stopping by here as much as possible to keep in touch and to stare at your lovely gardens, drooling in awe. Keep up the great greens my friends and stay up!

When I get back I am going to document my journey into killing the power bill.

By documenting my process through the supposed new breakthroughs in the 12-1 lighting game, I should be able to run a staggered 7 hour veg cycle and and straight six hour bloom cycle. I see no reason as to why this wouldn't work for me, especially running led's and utilizing the hot summers we have here.

Wish me luck and speed amigos, thanks again and blessings to all.
