"You must learn balance young grasshopper"StrongStem
Do you use silica in a soil like Ocean Forest? I use it in my hydro setup, but I haven't been giving it to my potted outdoor plant.I used to shit on it and say it was a waste of money. Then people I trusted told me to try it. I've never watered my plants without it since![]()
No, I only grow hydro in coco now. I was "this" close to doing a soil run this time but I chickened outDo you use silica in a soil like Ocean Forest? I use it in my hydro setup, but I haven't been giving it to my potted outdoor plant.
I was only talking to someone on here the other day about that I get wicked nightmares if I give up smoking to it’s fkd I wonder if I have em anyway but just don’t remember em when I’m smoking anyway it sux surely u guys have dispensaries where u are?Think I might take a break till I got something to smoke. Before I take everything the wrong way & lose what if any respect i have on here & piss of folks I like.
There’s a good chance my friend will have some in a week or two the only guy who grows organic. So maybe not to long either way

All this reference to chickens, seems like a good place to drop this.
I think that people who self medicate with cannabis, especially for pain fail to realize how much chronic pain can affect mood and demeanor when interacting with others. Pain is known to produce a fight or flight response in most people and even though we toughen up and push through the pain, or manage it, we’re still dealing with a subconscious reaction to the pain. This can definitely cause us to be grumpy, whiny, angry or anxious, hell in some weird cases arroused. Cannabis just helps us respond differently to our own hardwired reactions.I feel that. I'm already pissing off people left and right - hopefully not on here yet. It's weird that when I lose my shit during a break, I really hate myself. I question if weed really is that harmless if stopping turns me into some grumpy old asshole. But I also know that the first couple of days are the most critical, after that it gets much easier. Before I took regular breaks, my brain started racing like crazy once I stopped. I guess it was similiar to ADHS, even though I never had it before I started with weed.
On top of that, I have some shit going on with my kidneys. I drink mineral water (with moderate levels) every day since I was 17. Didn't really drink coffee until 7/8 years ago and I think I should have kept it that way. Now I had about 6 cups of green tea already, that always seems to clear the kidneys. No more coffee for a while and next time I have migraine, I will have to just fight through the pain without Ibuprofen - a real kidney fucker for me, even though I usually take half a pill which equals to 200mg.
Hang in there, you're not alone!![]()
I use silica enriched perlite from a company called harvest hero. It takes time to break down and become available to the plant, but on a second run with living soil it’s probably readily available.Do you use silica in a soil like Ocean Forest?

Chronic pain can also cause depression, isolation or suicide, and should not be taken lightly. It's hard to live with and hard to understand for those who don't know. Living in a body that is in constant pain is very mentally draining.I think that people who self medicate with cannabis, especially for pain fail to realize how much chronic pain can affect mood and demeanor when interacting with others.

Have you tried spraying silica? A friend of mine does it and finds the results pretty good.I use silica enriched perlite from a company called harvest hero. It takes time to break down and become available to the plant, but on a second run with living soil it’s probably readily available.
I use to use mono silic acid, a product called Stout msa, it’s a liquid. It can fall out of solution if mixed with other nutrients and become less effective, so I haven’t used it for a while since going organic.
It’s difficult to explain to people who don’t have a chronic pain condition what it’s like, and how it affects you, too. Thankfully I have this wonderful plant in my life,Chronic pain can also cause depression, isolation or suicide, and should not be taken lightly.

No I haven’t, makes sense that it would work as a foliar spray.Have you tried spraying silica? A friend of mine does it and finds the results pretty good.
