I will be old enough to start drawing social security next month. Am going to wait until 66 though. Hopefully it will still be there. The only bad thing about being an old fart is everything hurts in the morning. Takes a while to get everything working again. Fucking arthritis is starting to piss me off...slowly getting worse in my wrists and hate the thought of having to take medication for it. Looking into a more holistic way to ease the pain. Think I will just have another hit and ignore the shit.

Not paying for weed is one of the best bennies of being a grower - plus I can "Gift" as much as I want.
Just gave a best friend 1/2 lb.
That's what it should be all about.
Wow, 8 oz you could be most any body's new best friend. Thought I was generous giving up an oz now and then.

I don't see them very often & his wife absolutely requires it to sleep and manage her pain.
It's the least I can do for lifelong best friends.

It'll be there. Stop watching the news. Why? Because it ain't news it's editorials.

Each month you wait, your monthly dole will be increased. The problem is if you're still working, you lose a dollar for every two bucks you make over a certain amount. When you're 66 you can work your balls off and you won't be docked.

Here's to hoping we all still have functioning balls @ 66.

Edit: On the boys side of the locker room at least. :oops:

I love growing for so many reasons one being that it's some thing I can gift.
I gift about a pound a year to friends and people I've met that have their card and are in need.
I don't give it to friends that can afford to go to clubs veryoften tho.

Smoked weed as a Beatnick.
Acid and Shrooms turned me into a Hippie.
Time passed.
Had kids, settled down.
Became a neighborhood weed dealer.
Became a grower.
Got busted.
Didn't smoke for about 15 years.
Got old and sick.
Got a Medical permit and grew a few plants.
The weed fixed me up.
I don't need it for pain anymore.
At 72 I have become a pothead.
Again.
Life is good

Yes, I was actually over his house on Sunday. Jack is doing great, just needs to pick up a new computer after his "failed attempt" at fixing his current computer. LOL, he'll know what I mean by failed attempt.
His hard drive is now a wind chime!

Just curious.. Started in the 70's. Then stopped until I had severe pain issues. More tricks now and more stuff to fuck ya up.:weed: Great hobby.
I'm 44, used to occasionally throw seeds out in the backyard when I lived in Cali., but now reading up, trying to learn-got 3 small plants going........... small because I started them before I started reading:sad:
Got a heart condition, but this is getting fun, even though it leads to pulling of the hair when it doesn't go right, but hope to be doing it 'till I'm 50 or better:evil::evil::evil:
They are about 17 weeks old, I did get lucky and the 3 seedlings I decided to keep when I thinned them out (had just tossed in a handful of bagseed into some soil) ended up all being female.The thing I don't yet understand, is that one of them (the largest) is getting rust spots on the leaves but the others aren't, and the middle one (different leaves, so I can understand different strain, has buds starting only very close to the main stalk, not throughout the length of the branches like the tallest and shortest).
First pic is of middle plant with wider leaves, other pics pretty much show tallest and shortest plants that look very similar to each other, and have buds scattered throughout the branches.

Last pic is of the rust spots, which I found will eventually dry up and curl the larger older leaves if I leave it long enough, but when I first was told it was a mag/cal. deficiency, I started the eggshell/epsom salt foliar feeding thing (I'm low budget) and for a week or so, it went away, but now seems to be coming back, and affecting even some of the smaller leaves.
