i was in here last night before bed and thought the same thing. i was hoping she had got some time away not only for her sanity from working so hard but also to say hi to her many followers on this thread. shes done so well for time,money, and resources she has been given.Well.... It looks like itg hasn't been back in a while. I'm guessing she's busier than a cat in a roomful of rocking chairs!
So..how many lab tests exactly and from how many labs is it required by the THC Farmers message board to qualify as good enough to smoke? Is that written some where because I missed it if it is.......oh...and how many people here use that standard.....just so we are clear. I am meeting the requirements of the system in place here where I am. Don't like it...don't buy the weed. I am just going to have to keep on disagreeing with you on outdoor weed. Do you only eat food grown under artificial lighting? There are retail shops already here that are specializing in outdoor weed only....yes only! If you do not like it don't buy the weed. We have gone bigger with our plants....much bigger...as a result of our own experience with our first crop....just like we are supposed to we learn with our experiences just like each one of you do. I could not have used that advice sooner as our operation was already in place....already growing....already timelines in place and so many other aspects of the operation that none of you see.
Now that is just a flipping joke! I work 14-16 hour days, every single day, 7 days a week...I am not in any way a lazy grower and there is not time for 1/2 of what I think I need to do. Those are just words that apply in certain situations.....not mine I can assure you. We are already pushing hard....as hard as we possibly can.
You folks have heard my side of this whole process. I don't think I have anything else to say and no time to fuss about your opinions of how I receive your opinions quite frankly. To everyone that has been supportive...thank you from the bottom of my heart!!! May all your fingers be sticky and I hope you all have the opportunity to do what we are doing in your own states sooner than later! Hopefully real legalization will be all of our realities in our near future and that is what I am working toward. Here's to that great day when we can all grow our own weed just the way we each want to:)
I just typed up a big long answer and then with a keystroke it all disappeared:-/ Lucky for everyone you get the short answer.
I just got as many clones and seeds as I could afford and then cloned the heck out of them. I built 10 ez cloner sort of cloners with 70 stations each and I can put 2 cuttings in each station for a total of about 1400 at a time now. No that is not legal but the LCB did not make a legal path for us in this issue. We used my spare bedroom, my daughters spare bedroom, one of my partners spare bedroom and even a space in a friends house. We did buy a few seeds here my partner did that as he is young and more into strain types than I am.
As to the question about advice I found here? I did not get much that was usable and most of it was not offered in any sort of a friendly manner. There is a bunch of great information posted here but it takes a long time to read every post to find it. I also have found that there are as many ways to grow pot as there are people doing it. Each person thinks their method is the BEST and yet there seems to be no BEST way to do it, just lots of variations on a theme and you have to roll with what comes your way just like everything else pretty much in life.
I don't think this site has been that encouraging to me but I see lots of newbies getting great responses so perhaps it is just me. A few people here have been cool and say "you go girl" but it seems way more people say "you are going to fucking fail so bad and even seem happy at that thought:-/" There are a handful of people that have reached out and have been very nice but that does not seem to be the norm or at least not in my case. I wish I would have posed my original question differently but in my zealous glee at finally being able to do this all out front and in the open I was not wary enough, did not consider that this was a message board really and just did not even consider that there would be people that were not happy that this was happening for us here in WA state. It still confuses me a bit really....I would have been super excited for someone else in my shoes....but that is me and certainly not the prevailing outlook for most of the people that post here apparently. It is encouraging when I can actually discuss all or really any of this with someone else that grows but for the most part I have not found much engagement here.
I do appreciate the positive comments though and I said I would keep this thread updated so you will be seeing our progress as I can find the time to post it. I still can use all the luck and skill I can gather to bring this all into fruition:)
Thanks Seamaiden for the link to the dates and I will check out Hortonova too.
I saw Tom Petty and the Black Crowes at the Gorge Amphitheater and it was such a kick ass concert:)
They could not know if it was our weed or not Cap but if they even thought there was a possibility it would raise many red flags and quite frankly after all this work I would prefer there were no flags of any kind waving about us especially with the crazy paranoid Washington Liquor Control Board:-/
So...a few more photos:)

This is a small Bubba Kush that we put into flower a week earlier than the rest of our crop in a grow tent to see how it finished out so it is in early week 5....looking pretty nice.

Another shot of the Berkeley Blues.....we have about 400 in flower, early week 4.....it is an early finisher so we bulked up on it to have lots of early product.

Motivation early week 4.
I imagine there is lots I could have done differently but I am fairly satisfied and it smells so amazing in our flowering room....so many different scents all mingled together....I can't wait for 10:30 each night to turn on the lights:)

Ok Folks.....one last post. Wobbly Goblin messaged me on our facebook page and that is where that post came from, a personal message on facebook, not a public post. I would never have posted that publicly for everyone s information.
