I'll still pop in in the morning before work, and all evening after work until bed.


I tell ya it's been nice having someone on the boards to chat with late at night I feel ya @incogneato . It's been nice.

My goal is back to work end of Jan or end of Feb.

Things get better every day/week.
It's been a long slow road to recovery.

But I've been walking, driving, carrying things (up to 30-50lbs so far carefully). Going out more shopping, eating etc.

I think the work involved in gardening helped me recover. By motivating me with my passion to do the work. It helped me slowly train myself back into the swing of things.

I mean you'd be surprised how much of your core and groin you engage when leaning over a soil bin mixing by hand.

Or having to pull 10+ lb pots in and out of the tent after watering (started 2 weeks after surgery extremely cautiously)

Or shaking up my nutrient jug. Starting and stopping the mass of forward and backward moving liquids definitely engages your core.

I can shower alone again, put pants on, shoes on.



My vitality is slowly starting to return. I probably won't see larger gains until a year or more out from surgery.

I'll be a part of this forum for a long time.

Good to hear your recovery is coming along. Been there twice myself. Hope you guys had a nice relaxing Christmas. Side note: I had clipped a lower bud on my pink diesel x amnesia auto last week and decided to give it a try. Last night I packed a bowl of larf and I was pretty impressed. Saw my wife had her hair straightener on and made an impulse decision lol. Pressed the nug twice and got a pretty good size ball of rosin. I wanted to get a better taste of the terps b cuz the strain actually smells heavenly and the bowl was dirty. Bootlegged a dab in my glass bowl lol. Cleaned it out,heated it up and dabbed away. Caught me off guard,

Dabs are potent!
I take a fat dab & It gives me a hot flash and my forehead sweats as my lungs tighten up like a vice.

Then the whole high rushes to my head. It's a great feeling!

I'm gonna have to load up the sled and make my way out there to know which is better. Can we see Russia from your porch? :cool:

Trying to see if cutting carbs before the flush and lowering my overall p in flower will lead me to more flavorful smoother crops. I've never attempted a flush on organic soil but this stuff is recycled at this point and runoff is getting clearer and clearer as we get close to the end so I figured why not start now lol. At the 10 day left mark I will hit them with 5-10 gals a piece and probably once more in the last week with some ice water. Trying the soma flush haha

let us know what happens, sounds interesting i usually carb load before chop to add a lil more weight, just cause the plant breaks down those sugars quite well in the last couple weeks,from my experience.

happy farmin!

Jokes aside though I should try to throw out an informative post here and there i feel like ive been doing alot of learning lately and less sharing that wealth back here but experiments take time i guess. I should have done that kelp tea a week earlier now that im loooking back at my pics i am sure i missed some weight because of it.
