Here are some more pics. A lot of mine are NOT ready yet. Maybe some have 2 weeks more.

[tahoe58]

wow...what a read....I went through all 17 pages and relished in the detail and the pics - what an inspiration! I have yet to grown my own, but have some seeds that were purchased a year ago and now I guess I'm ready. Unfortunately, circumstances as they are means an indoor grow, but I still look forward to it with the same passion and excitment that you have exhibited throughtout this thread. Man, I'm soooo jealous (yes wasted emotion - but truthful). Thanks so much to everyones contribution to this discussion, a lot of info exchanged, and as always on this forum, so so so much to learn! thanks again!

Ahh! Thank you, thank you Chiceh!
And I know you know good buds.

Gosh tahoe. All 17 pages. I'm honoured.
Thanks so much. That means a lot to me.
Yes I do have a lot of passion and excitement for these girls. How can you not? Its totally exciting. Every phase of it.

I have learned a lot from this site. I really needed to know what I bud looks like that is ready because I honestly wasn't even sure. A lot of people here pitch in and help and I also like to thank everyone.

But I'm not finished yet...(thanks everyone) so I will thank them along the way (thanks everyone) and later.

Hey...indoor grows are a lot of fun also. I think the more effort and energy you put into taking care of your plants, the more effort the put into displaying the goods that you want.

Good luck with your grow and thanks for taking ALL THAT TIME to read all 17 pages. I'm still lost for words on that one.

totally entertaining, and informative....thats all I can say....and oh...yea....the deep jealousy of those buds, that aroma...and that floral arrangement, what a hoot! I grew some shroom last year and thoroughly got the bug - they turned out great, though haven't done that again, until now giving consideration to that again - as well as some herb. Have spore prints and leftover syringes from last year. I have a challenge even with the indoor grow, with two relatively small children and wishing to remain somewhat stealth. I am looking at a cabinet grow and still have hesitancy about going forward with it. Still in the figuring out the details stage.

I have the Cannabis Grow Bible - don't know if you have seen that, and I also have the Nirvana Cannabis Growers Guide....both FULL of valuable info.....I have a lot more reading to do again....

I copied off a HUGE book from someone that was about 700 to 800 pages. It had everything you ever needed to know.
The problem is I lent it to someone and never got it all back. At least 1/2 of it is missing. It was a GREAT book too.
It may have been the Cannabis Grow Bible. I have no idea.

Shroomssss!!!! LMAO!!! I haven't done those things in about 2 dozen years or so BUT OMG have I had some crazy experiences with them.

I wouldn't have a clue as to what to grow or what to pick. Dangerous if you don't know 'cause some are poisonous and others just make you really sick.

Yes/no?

I can safely say that all the times I did shrooms were good times.

Yeah. With kids around its really different. I hear ya. My friend has a kid and she has a cool cab that works good but they cost a bit too.
A cabinet with a good ventilation system in place could work.

I know you'll have a grow in no time. You'll figure somethin' out.

yea the bible is 435pp, and an 8MB PDF. I downloaded it. But I think you said you were on dialup.....crap that would take days if you could acutally make it happen. I'll see if I can find you a link...

I grew up in your neck of the woods....I love the fall colours, out west now, and some of the same but...not the same.

yea shrooms, what fun - perma-smile!! totally worth it, and totally simple too. yea picking....I won't do that without someone that had the experience to be certain, but growing your own.....man - the passion and excitment....I would grind them up in a coffee grinder, soak the powder in lemon juice for 5-10 minutes - add honey and hot water, and drink my tea within 10 minutes and for the next 5-6 hours - then put on some music and disappear and explore another world - I had also not done any of this for over 20 years - too busy having a professional career, raising horses, and raising kids. Then came the new millenium (lost my mom, my dad and my marriage all in a matter of 4 years), and a realization that I've lived some wonderful dreams, only to have an opportunity to live some more, just not with the same person. Sad, very sad, and I will never understand it but, it is reality and maybe I'm not supposed to understand it. She said, I love you but I'm not in love with you...after almost 20 years, wow...now there's a reality check. Guess I'm still smarting over it all, though less thewse days as my cosmic chaos is slowly getting itself sorted.

I think the cabinet route is gonna be the way to go, and then just keep it locked and out of bounds. I am really looking forward to it.

Again....wonderful job you did, and a great inspiration to getting my ass in gear ....

I'd love the link anyway since my hubby has a memory card and they have high speed at his work. But then again, he doesn't wanna get caught downloading that but maybe at a friends.
Good idea. i never thought of that. I hand copied the entire thing out about 15 eyars ago. They didn't have the technology back then and I sure didn't no any other way.

Oh. You hadn't done it in about 20 years. The shrooms I mean. I'm not sure if I could handle that kind of stone these days.

Wow! You really have had a rough 4 years. That sucks!!! I've been through some really rough times also in the last 5 years but nothing I would even want to get into. Too bizarr!!! Talking about not being meant to know the reason....ditto.
I'm just glad I have some personal smoke now.

If you could include the link I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks tahoe and good luck.

how did you hand copy it? you wrote down the whole tihng?!?! YOu nut!?!?!what are you doing aawake!?!

 

[Lacy]

No, no. I didn't mean that. I meant that I went to the library, drug stores, etc. and copied each page one at a time. 700 to 800 pages is a lot of copying. Especially what it was.

I sleep when I can. I slept for a few hours and when I get tired I sleep again. I have insomnia.
Drinking some Cocoa and having a puff right now.
That should do the trick.
