BTW, is Gypsy still involved with IC Mag? He used to own it and Nirvana seedbank.
I think so yes. He was arrested in Manilla to be extradited to the US or something, little over a year ago. Don't know what the current status is, but I think he still owns icmag and the seedshop (seedboutique). Icmag itself has a lot of drama in its history, with thcfarmer as a result.

Our (non-district) hospital system is ranked in the top 100 hospitals in the U.S. every year, recently was awarded the Malcomb Baldridge award for excellence and our family doctor was voted #1 family doctor. There should be no reason why you have shabby doctors.
That's great, you must live in a great place. I mean, there are good doctors around all states, but not everyone has an opportunity to use them and not everyone can afford them, also there are hardly any good doctors in upstate NY or central Florida, especially for after care treatment. My step father lived in Florida and had to go to Georgia I believe to get treatment. My girlfriends aunt lived in upstate ny and had to travel 5 hours to NYC Sloan-kettering Cancer center. It's expensive stuff to go through. I also just lost a few other friends to cancer. It really sucks. Someday there will be a flu-shot type preventative treatment for cancer (I hope), hey we all can dream

Manilla? That guy sure gets around. Yep, lots of drama over at ICmag.

And knowing the socialist gov you got up there, I bet there's $9 in tax. That is ridiculous.
Oh man, don't get me started on Cuomo! He is such a (insert every single negative word you can think of)! I am so glad I got out of there, cali seems to have it's issues, but it's much cheaper and 10x better than NY. The ny government is geared towards the city only and everyone that doesn't live in the city wants to have the state separated. The cost of living in NY is pathetic! The cost of everything in NY is pathetic actually. I guess it's kind of like California, Nor Cal wants to be separated from So Cal because all of the taxes are formed from So Cal living. It's not fair, State Of Jefferson has my vote!

I figured I'd share my slide show of my last grow. I took a picture each day (most of the days) and it shows the growth of the plants fairly well. You'll notice in the beginning of flower that I lollipop and defoliate the tangilope while the rest of the plants I prune mildly. It shows clearly that the mild pruning worked great while the tangilope that was heavily pruned did not tolerate it too well and did not grow very much.

germing in paper towels is great for people that don't want to waste rapid rooters, pots, soil, whatever, on seeds that don't pop.

this guy seems like a bit of a fruit... but I agree with a lot he says.
"there's the way we think plants should grow, and then there's the way plants really do grow."
Oh my god... :wall:

Is this guy on RIU?

Just had to basically defoliate one plant. Not prune, defoliate. Got some bugs and removed tons of leaves. I guess I'll contribute my findings with it when I'm done. If it's slow bubba pheno ass yields anything close to its sisters I'll be impressed.
