Hey bro, going pretty well. I have almost enough money to get my treatment now, I need to go over as much as I can, need to be able to cover expenses travelling out there and I'm in a bit of a hole right now with my income so, I need to bring in as much extra as I can to help me out. With that being said, after all the stress and bullshit I've had to deal with along the way, I can't wait for it to be over! lol
With all I'm gaining from doing it I would expect to have to deal with some shit along the way and I'm totally cool with having to work for it but, some of the shit has been quite wearing on me, my body doesn't react well to being put under stress these days.
There, got that out of the way, lol.
My Stacked Kush, White Widow, and Sour Secret are all still in veg but, gonna be getting flipped pretty soon, along with 2 Devil Dawg clones. My Cataract Kush is gonna be a while longer, early on I knew I didn't want to clone it so, I decided I'd try mainlining with it, bad idea. It's slow growth was part of what made me decide not to clone it and that's not really the best trait for mainlining from what I see. It's not coming out very well either, doesn't want to grow evenly at all. A little discouraged with it, I was half tempted to dump it the other day, then I decided to just let it keep going and see what I get out of it.
Hope you're doing well bro, been too busy to be on much so, I haven't stayed up on what's going on around here.

Hey bro, the plants are doing well, thanks for asking. How are things for you? Just dropped 4 UK Blues beans, (from Indican @ Sinister seeds), to germinate and as soon as I get them into soil I'm gonna germinate 4 Falcon beans, (from Ras Niya @ Green Acorns). Both sound fantastic and I can't wait to try them, Indican was cool enough to send me seeds from 3 different blueberry flavor strains to try, which I'm excited about, really hope I find a keeper with some amazing blueberry flavor!

Nice! I just popped some 3 sour kush from reserva privada and 3 green crack from canuk seeds. I'm growing in 100gal smart pots outside this year, trying to be full organic. Hopefully i have some nice plants to show.

Damn, 100 gallons, huh? Wish I was able to do more stuff like that. I'd actually be tickled to just be fully in control of my own grow. I do all the growing and have full control over what I do that way but, I can't set up a tent or a room, whatever. Hell, unless I want to go through a whole bunch of bullshit, I can't change the bulb in my flower tent on my own. Of course, if no one was around and it had to be done I'd work out a way to get in there and do it.
Well shit, I didn't mean to start down that road, lol.
I'm trying to get back to a mostly organic grow, not sure if I'll ever get to full organic or if I even care if I do or not but, I definitely want to cut out all the chemicals that I can for sure. Not sure why I ever started in the other direction other than wanting to experiment with things.
I grew one Green Crack that was a freebie seed I had from somewhere, wasn't them, didn't care for that one but, had heard some good stuff and had high hopes, wouldn't mind trying it again at some point.

Yes sir I had a few hard learned lessons last year so it's above ground in 100 gal pots. I gonna try to be 100% organic this year. I'm sure I'll have some failure this year but that's ok, gotta learn somehow right? Give it like 10 more years @Papa Indica then u will be able to get some metal legs, Hell yea! Then u can walk around like terminator changing light bulbs.

Cloning some new stuff so I don't miss a winner! Also keeping the Sour Dubb cut going, (for now).
New seedlings! 3 UK Blues in the background from Indican/Sinister Seeds and four Falcon's from Ras Niya/Greens Acorns just poking through. Hoping for some great flavors!

First time in quite a while I've had so few in the flower tent. My Cataract Kush will be ready to flip soon, it was already going a little on the slow side then I had to take a half-assed shot at mainlining it but, it's starting to take off ok now. I did get the basic idea of the mainlining, got just four main branches for growth but, didn't really go into training too much beyond pulling the first two down for a while.
Need to get a pic of it I guess.
Got a Stacked Kush, Sour Secret, and a White Widow in there right now.
I dumped about 10lbs of azomite, 10lbs of Sea-90, around 8lbs of kelp meal, and only maybe a pound or so of alfalfa meal into a 5 gallon bucket and use my cordless drill with a mixer to mix it up real good.
Didn't really think through how hard it was gonna be for me to mix it that way but, as full as the bucket was it was the only way it would work. Simplifies my work when making up pots anyway, got that much of it in one place, lol.
Wanted to get the whole 10lbs of kelp meal in there but, it was too full at first and I wasn't going to add more after it settled, the mixing was too much work and I think it'll be just fine the way it is.

Nice, everything is looking healthy on your end. I made up 3 of the 100gal of super soil but ran out of oyster shells. Didn't realise 3 cups was 2 lbs of product and only bought a 6lbs box. That shit was some work to mix up. Good thing I work hard daiy

It might have been easier for u to mix in one of those plastic kitty pools. Throw it all in and mix it up with a hoe and shovel.

Dude, you're forgetting about my physical condition, that would be completely out of the question for me! I think I got it mixed up really well, it was just hard on me but, everything is so, what difference does it make? lol

Still have a tiny bit of cleaning up to do around the bottom but, all in all, it's not a terrible example of mainlining, just not a good one, lol. The tops have not wanted to be equals since the beginning but, they're not so bad.
It could definitely be worse and once I get it transplanted and flipped and give it a little stretching time, I can stake each limb off and get some good, even spacing going for them.
Good enough.

Dealing with some inner conflict right now. Part of me doesn't want to bother with cloning everything anymore, it seriously hinders my ability to keep popping seeds because I have no room, (or physical ability), to run much for numbers.
For the longest time, I never did any cloning, I just popped beans. I definitely had some stuff slip by that I was bummed to lose without keeping it around for a while first but, I'm thinking, if I do see something budding out that really strikes me as something that's gonna be good, I'll just snip something from it late and reveg a cut if I feel the need.
I've got a lot of beans I want to pop and at the rate I'm going I'll never get around to trying the stuff I want to, and I don't have nearly the beans some of you birds in the community do. Hell, probably most of you have more beans than me and I still feel like I'd never get to them without changing things up.
Any input? Tell me what I want to hear! lmfao!

The trick is keeping them that way all the way to the end! lol Waiting to see some more of your grows, hope things work out so we all can real soon brother.
I've seen some of your mainlining, my technique is weak in comparison but, for a trial run at it, given all the circumstances, I'm satisfied. Not sure if I'll ever do it again, we'll see.
Isn't success the fruit of failure? Or something stupid thing like that, I don't know. :shockedninja:
Lmao!
