Replaced one of the hood shocks on the truck, at least it stays up now. Cut a couple branches off the peach tree, they were in the way of mowing and picking and not that much of producers anyway. Have to wait to prune it fully, green trash is full of a tomato plant. Picked up another timer for the grow room so I can move one of the pineapple bushes and my boonie pepper in there soon, lows are projected to get too close to freezing for comfort in the next week. B&S time.

I would have been in a coma if I ate more than one. You and @FresnoFarmer are hard core!

I often go heavy on the nutes too :mrgreen: For me the goal with edibles is to turn off my mind and let me fall asleep quickly. It's hard 'cause there's often a fine line between blissful sleep and full blown panic attack.



Probably not the best time to be experimenting with alternative remedies. Last week I was reading that health Canada is reviewing whether Benadryl should be available over the counter due to potential side effects.

interesting. i use benadryl all the time. i have allergies all summer, and i'm one of those people who get a histamine reaction to growing weed. i wear a long sleeve shirt when i'm going to be working with the plants. i get a rash just like poison ivy if i'm exposed for long enough, itching, little blisters that pop and spread....i wash my arms and hands, then use alcohol to get the sticky off, then i take a couple of benadryl...maybe i'll try claritine for a while...

Well, I was just finishing up watering my moms and clones, when I noticed a police helicopter (or Ghetto Bird, for you urban kids) in a low hover circling above my home. It was loud. I tried not to let paranoia set in with thoughts like, "Dude, why the fuck would they spend money on a helicopter for your little grow? Don't be stupid." But it stayed around for HOURS. It was difficult to practice violin because of the noise. The chopper finally left at about 10pm, I believe it was running out of fuel. Then a buddy called wanting a couple of ounces delivered, so I put on some clothes and went out to my car. There were police SUVs everywhere, blocking the streets and highway exits. So I drove in the opposite direction to get on an entrance ramp a couple miles away. I came back the same way, not even bothering to get off at my normal exit where there was the heaviest police presence. Turns out that there was a bank robbery a few miles away, which ended in a shootout at the music studio down the street. The suspect (who just shot another cop in the head while running... impressive) was killed in the exchange, and unfortunately a 15 year old boy who just finished his piano lesson was shot in the arm and belly on his way out. In front of his mom. He's still in serious condition. This city is such a strange mix of greatness and horror. I guess that's true of most large cities. I'm getting a little tired of it to be frank, I'm starting to think of moving to a quiter spot a little outside of it. I guess I'm getting older. How was your night?




read about that in the news the other day, small world, didn't imagine anyone at riu would be even tangentially involved
