You gotta love Ed Rosenthal. I'll join him.

Take the Pledge: Work With the Police and DEA
In the last few weeks the U.S. government detected two commercial tunnels running across the U.S.-Mexico border. They were constructed to eliminate the tedium of bribing customs agents at the border. They publicized it as if it were a major blow to the marijuana industry. The officials probably don't realize how ridiculously 20th century they look, still doing body counts. But there's another side of it, that proves them to also be totally ineffective.
The government seized about 45 tons of relatively low quality marijuana. Still, that seems like a lot of pot. Forty-five tons is the equivalent of 90,000 lbs., 1,440,000 ounces, 11,520,000 eighths and each eighth can be rolled into three thin to medium sized joints once the detrious is removed. So you could say that the government seized a total of about 34,560,000 joints.
Thirty four million joints. That's not even a day's consumption. Maybe 34 million would last only 12 hours, on a football or summer weekend only 8 hours. So, to stop the pot trade they'd have to make two or three 45 ton seizures a day. Anything less and the country will continue to be inundated with marijuana. Go to it boys. You proved you can do it. Just make two raids like this a day. Of course, that will drive the price up so there will be more incentive for both domestic and foreign producers to redouble their efforts.
In fact I have so much empathy for their position, which could be likened to bailing water out of the ocean, that I have a plan to help the DEA in its efforts to eliminate marijuana. Perhaps you can join me in this civic project.
I have become an anonymous volunteer at my local police department. Here's how it works. I carry out independent investigations (out in the cold, in spy parlance) to find any herbal controlled substance, such as marijuana. When I locate said substance, I immediately retrieve my portable hazardous waste incinerator and at risk to myself set out to destroy the material, saving the police department the time, money, and personnel efforts that would be required to arrest the substance. Some of my co-workers use a slightly different technique, wrapping the controlled substance in paper before destroying it thermally.
My Local Department
A Portable Hazardous Waste Incinerator
You can join me in my efforts and swear to dedicate a portion of your time locating this material wherever it may be found and then to destroy it to relieve police of their heavy burden. The police would thank you for this, but remember, that part of the satisfaction of a job well done in this case, is that you perform your civic duty anonymously.
In fact, using private anonymous contractors such as myself and hopefully, you too, seems to be the only way that this country will be able to get rid of this daily flood of marijuana piling up here. You can see it all over. The forty-five tons stored at the Mexico border. The build-up, back-up at the Canadian border. Up in the Emerald Triangle in California non-light deprived pot sold for as low as $1,000 a pound last harvest season.
Frankly, the combined NARC Force just doesn't have the manpower to keep up with the avalanche of marijuana piling up daily. Thirty pounds in Fargo, ND. Here's a call from Columbia, MO, 50 lbs. must be destroyed! A plea for help from Athens, Ohio- 92 lbs. that must be incinerated! If we all pitch in and cooperate with the DEA and local police by eliminating this material faster, so that the police don't have to, I'm sure it would be much appreciated. I know this is a daunting task. But I truly believe that Americans are ready to take on the challenge.
Are you ready?!!? Are you ready to be anonymous volunteer on the herb destruction beat? Send in your pledge and suggestions about how you plan to help the police eliminate this herbal deluge. Just raise your right or left hand or don't and take the pledge. I pledge to help with the marijuana problem by incineration or other means whenever I encounter this substance.
Congratulations. You are now deputized. Go out and burn it up.

It was 300 to 350. Now 200 to 250. Not that I care, as I haven't had to buy anything for almost a year. Better than some states I guess.
Rumors of more raids today. Here's another e-mail from today.
Feds Raid Medical Cannabis Sites, Statewide, While Legislature Acts
Coincidence? We think not!
We were sitting in the Old Supreme Court Chambers this morning while the Senate Judiciary Committee took executive action on the medical marijuana repeal bill when our blackberries started whirring with texts from people all over the state alerting us to DEA raids that were just at that moment beginning to occur.
Since then, the whole day has been a whirlwind of rumors, reports, media inquiries and ever-changing capitol building scuttlebutt. Unconfirmed reports still abound, as do some emerging facts:
· At least ten (and possibly more) separate operations, some functioning in multiple locations, were raided yesterday. This includes grow and/or dispensing facilities in Billings, Bozeman, Belgrade, Helena, Missoula, Great Falls and Kalispell. Some in other towns may have received visits and warnings.
· The raids appear to have involved federal agencies solely or at least primarily. Agencies involved include DEA, FBI, ATF, and immigration-focused agencies.
· Plants and medicine were destroyed or confiscated at all locations. Computers and other equipment (including lights and ballasts) were taken in most or all locations.
· Almost no one was arrested. (Those who were arrested involved things like speeding ticket warrants and other non-cannabis-related issues.)
· But most everyone was terrorized in one way or another, it seems. Disabled patients working at some of the facilities were thrown to the ground as if they were dangerous, armed criminals; people everywhere were kept handcuffed while searches and confiscations occurred.
We are still trying to piece together accurate information about what happened and about what news media are being told (and not being told) by the federal agencies and other more local sources. Just as the political situation in the capitol building has been remarkably fluid all winter long, the law enforcement situation in Montana at the moment appears ever-changing.
We will do our best to keep you informed of what we know. Check our Facebook page for news reports updated regularly, especially tomorrow morning. In the meantime, in case raids of this sort might continue, heres some advice relayed from one of Montanas leading drug defense attorneys:
You are not obligated to answer any questions. You are not obligated to let anyone in without a warrant. You are not obligated to consent to any search. Even innocent questions like Are you a caregiver? or Are you a patient? are parts of an investigatory strategy and can and will be used against you in court. Once given, you cannot take back your answers. It might feel uncooperative to assert these rights, but its actually patriotic. Call your local lawyer to discuss.
Thanks. I love DIY's if I can. It's therapy for me.
More as the day goes on. That Politics in the Pub will be nuts tonight.

It's been 400 an oz for me, which also means I'm too stubborn to buy it anymore and I won't have anymore until I harvest. Oh well. Like I've said before, I'm a cheap bastard! sns

This is a Cannabis label to go on every glass jar I have. If it ever went to evidence it would have to be explained. Hypocrisy at it's finest.
Look it up if you're bored.
There is one of the four federal patients with MS.
Here is a Bud Porn shot of SS #2 from her harvest today.

It's a fruity taste but I don't have any flavor to add to that description. The high shows it's Sativa influence. I smoked some with my Caregivers wife after Irvin spoke Sunday. She liked, but had no description of taste besides "good flavor". All I can say so far is it tastes like good Cannabis.

Daniels are you really doing jacks 20-20-20 at 1/2 teaspoon per quart or was that a misprint?

If you can believe it, they were up to 1 Tsp/quart. I was going for the outdoor dose of 1 Tlbs./gallon. I definitely don't recommend it, and they were worked up to it. I use RiddleMe's make it rain technique. I leech (real name or flush, but we call rain) a 1 gal. pot with 2 gal. of pH 6.0 water. After it has drained I run the whole quart threw. Finally on the 8th week of flowering they were getting a nute burn. But deep green. Oddly, I still don't see how I will be smoking the Jack's even though they got no flushing. UB and RiddleMe have laid that path, with Horticultural proof Good job catching that and asking.

Yeah, my plants are small. Most are stocky little indicas with one lanky sativa that I just topped a couple of days ago. I was trying to out-think myself and figure out exactly what to do, then I remembered the old, it's an easy plant to grow thing and talked to riddleme about it and I was going to try different things with the different plants. When I got ready to water I ended up doing 20-20-20 at 1/2 teaspoon per gallon anyway. lol I chickened out. I think thats best, they are still teenagers. the oldest one is 5 weeks from germ. So I'll see how they do. Here are some pics, it was bag seed I got last summer on most of these, but there might be a couple that were two or three years old. I've been hanging onto seeds for a while waiting until the timing was right. I have them in pots that are too big too soon, but I didn't figure that out until after i had upcanned them and i figure they are in there now, so, I'm not changing it. They smell like skunk.If you can believe it, they were up to 1 Tsp/quart. I was going for the outdoor dose of 1 Tlbs./gallon. I definitely don't recommend it, and they were worked up to it.

Also in case anyone is interested, I took some pictures of the grates I use to raise my pots so they can drain even after they are back in place in the tent. I drain them first but they keep dripping for a while. These things work perfect and they are stackable so you can raise the plants if you want. They are called lynx levelers, and they are used to level the wheels on a travel trailer when you park on uneven ground. Thought they would be perfect for this and they are.

sorry about pic quality on some of these, i tried to cull the bad pics, but i don't quite have the attachment thing mastered yet
