Fat fker in that pic, that was 4 years ago at 63 yrs old. Fk I had more hair on top but the weight's about right. If I was 7' tall like Shaq I'd just be chunkyI love the heat and have spent a large portion of my life either living in the heat ( Hawaii & California ) or spending every dollar I could get my hands on for a 2 week south every year ( for over 25 years) 22 countries 30 states and all 10 Canadian provinces I've driven in through and around looking for that perfect place on the beach. I found it in Mahahual Mexico in a little cabana on the beach for about $100 US/ night breakfast included
5 feet with only a 2 month veg in 1 gal pots. As soon as I take down a few outside I'll move a few of these out.How tall are your chemgophers in the greenhouse at the top?
WE have some frost here todayGetting close. I really want to get the large tomatoes going but too cold. I'll start them soon in the seed warmer but they can't stay in there for more than a few days after popping (too humid) and too cold for them in the greenhouses. Hopefully by the end of the month and I can bring the seedlings inside for a month. It's going to be another beautiful warm day after 30F again this morning.

Its hard to believe but you do get used to it, -16 for a while today and I'm out in a T shirt, not long mind you but I have to go out to get into my grow room or work room, not far 1 min to grow 2 to work shop but I'm in a Tshirt. I came out of my grow room last night nice and warm 80f in tshirt and stepped out into -15 with wind, let me tell you that takes your breath away quick.Just a little frostI bet the ground is frozen solid. That would kill me, my back would lock right up.
I've read some post of yours mentioning moving east and wanting a supply before you go. I watch a bunch of first Amendment audit video's on Youtube. There is a bad habit (apparently) for Highway cops to be out trolling for out of state plates and in particular Californian plates knowing with the states Liberal attitude chance are good you'll be packing the devils weed. There are some very good don't tread on my rights guys holding their ground and refusing to be ordered around by the highway extortionists. I get a kick out of guys that know the law better than the thugs with guns to the point where the cops just get frustrated and walk away.Harvested 1 plant yesterday

I've got 4 spears hanging and a 4 oz bag of trim in the deep freeze

Wanting to make some hash but not until I can dedicate a few hours. I've been bagging ice and moving it to the freezer.
I moved a plant from the greenhouse to take its place

I plan on taking down 1 a week so trimming doesn't take a day plus. They're 12+ weeks in flower and while they never fattened up the trichs are all cloudy and 10% amber, it's time.

I think I'll use her as a mom and clone several dozen this spring. I'd love to have a bunch of these in the back 40 along the West fence (the greenhouses, herb garden and veggie garden are all on the East side of the backyard. The back 40 refers to a 40x40' area of fruit trees directly behind the South facing section of the house) but I'll have to find a new spot for males.
Feb 25th is planting day. Time to get with it, I'm not getting any younger and may move next year so I need to grow as much as possible.
I believe I'll start the next winter grow in June so they'll have much better weather for flowering and can harvest between my bday and Christmas. The cold this winter has been harsh and while it did give me beautiful bud and leaf colors the flowers are not swelling like they do in the fall. I'll make hash with each harvested plant trim, dry and cure the bud and freeze as much fresh as possible to make concentrates.
This was a huge learing experience using coco, hydro nutes and growing in winter outside and has hopefully set me up for a banner summer and that begins in 1 week.
Happy Growing!
I figured on boxing up everything and having a friend ship it then renting a 20' van with out of state plates to move what we keep. We'll sell the cars. Maybe 2 or 3 boxes and seeds in each box and ship them separate. Something to think about.I've read some post of yours mentioning moving east and wanting a supply before you go.

The Yoggie Bear hatted road trolls will smell pot if you fart in the state. I'm supper paranoid about southern jails. I'd find the pot tolerating states and zig zag through if possible. I've been through Texas and loved it but I'd go out of my way to avoid driving through without Texas plates ( from what I've seen on YT) There are still some zero tolerance states I'd avoid driving through with anything other than Budweiser.I figured on boxing up everything and having a friend ship it then renting a 20' van with out of state plates to move what we keep.

We'll talk later, after we make the move. If, we make the move. I LOVE YOU MAN, but would never ask such a thing. We're goodhell if you have time....Extra time.......you could always drive out here get your rental house and power and etc... up and going.... and then
use my truck and trailer and move yourself .... when your done just drop it back off.... It sits Most the time anyways now.....
Down with all that cept working on Saturday! And I was co planning bout workin to much ! Lol and yes I leArn something from everyone even if it’s what not to do. Chemdog x Brutus og on deck may need ya !Bowl of hash

It's what's for dinner! I mean besides the Ginger Ale and vodka, of course.
Long week and rain today while I was working. Get home and sunny. Weather by Sybil.
Just ordered more hash bags. Thought about ordering the washing machine. I'm old but not that old.
Would like to try some dry ice hash making. At $1.49lb I'm gonna have to give it a try. Even adding it to water/ice should work even better but would be interesting to see how the co2 freezes the weed/trichromes. You know, for science and all.
Just puffed a J of 2 month old GDP tops. Yeah, just the tops. Damn near finished it, too. Granted I did take a few hash hits and am totally toast but hey, I'm like McDonald's and lovin' it.
I'm old school. I remember rating leaf from year to year when learning to grow. When we topped we always puffed that leaf when it was dry amd looked forward to the day. These days I compost 99+% of leaves but I sure plan on lighting up a black leaf J or 2 or 5.

Hell, I bet a half one would do the trick and I enjoy rolling up. Always have. Maybe just missing cigarettes? 4 1/2 months since I quit. After 43 years can't believe it. Always figured I'd be buried (cremated?) wth a pack in my pocket and maybe one between my teath. Vape rocks, it took a couple years playing with it but I no longer smell like an ashtray. Pretty frickin' happy.
So still looking and not touching

You know I wanna. Looked real close and not enough amber and worse!!! my neighbor got all talkative after a bowl of hash last night.
Ya know what's funny? I grew in winter with the hope of a monthly harvest. Got all my skills handed to me in November by mice/rats eating seedling but here I am with 11 adult females, all several weeks plus away from peak harvest, out frickin' side and I harvested last week and since made 4 gms of hash.
This year looks to be the best in many. Just hope we don't get any more freezes and we're golden. Saw a fb post of mine yesterday of hail last year. Planting tomorrow, like a lot.
Wow, stoned and rambling, I'm sure this will help someone on their current or future grow.
