I'm here buddy. It's been an experience but I'm out of hospital and feeling like it's gonna stick this time. Been admitted through emerg 5 times since Christmas. Nightmare, even though I come in on ambulance, the triage nurses don't always get that even though I'm just a guy puking, I've been puking for 48hrs straight without end, had a very recent esophagectomy, and need IV fluids, IV emetics and IV benzodiazepines or hydromorphone, depending don't the incident.
To make things really crazy, my mom broke her hip and needed emerg surgery and my Dad's ticker gave him issues that resulted in a week in hospital. We're going down like bowling pins over here.
Anyway, the hospital care is by and large wonderful, and I'd jump on a grenade for those nurses, but coming in through emerg that many times, that sick, especially that last time, was personally apocalyptic.
I've been off ''the screens'' for a while just because I've felt so poorly and only had a tiny iPhone in the hospital - where I've been 9 days out of 10 since Christmas. Extreme nausea is the worst man, I'd rather re-live the worst pain I've felt in my life than the nausea I feel sometimes.
This time I've been home for 10 days, which is a record for the last 3 months so I'm def. trending upward and building some momentum in the right direction. Today I went with my Dad to Buckerfeilds Supply and picked up my seed potatoes for the garden. I'm gonna fill more than half of my 35ft. raised bed with potatoes this year. They'll love the blazing sun in that spot all summer. Unfortunately, I need to go turn it over somewhat. The weeds have created surface roots that are like a woven mat. I also bought some new tomato, cucumber and bean seeds, and I bought a tray of spinach seedlings, cabbage, and half a dozen patio tomato plants, most of which will go into 27 gal tote-SIPs.
Hope you've been hanging in there, this Missus too. I'll go check out your threads - I'havent even been gohsting you guys - although my daughter logs in as me now and then. Damn kids, they act like they don't need you, then use yer stuff. Paying for my sins, I am.
Hey bill hope all is all am a first time grower and 4 ever smoker
Trying to figure out wat is wrong with my plant any of your expertise knowledge would be greatly appreciated!
Good morning Bill
Yes you are making sense early this morning even before a cup of joe.
Im gonna hop on the zon and order up some supplies. Just realized my dynomyco supply is running lean so I will wait a few more days till i get my supplies to up pot the girls.
Well hello there @Bill284 !!! I've been away from here for far too long! How ya' been doing? Say... I'm gonna' plant a new crop come early spring, so U'll be seeing more of me here at 420Mag.
I got a question: In your mind, what's the best way to get a big root system for my girls? Keep in mind that I start them in cups, then pots, then I like to put them in the ground partway through the veg cycle, long before they even think about blooming. I do this because of the high heat here where I live. They seem to do so much better in Mother Earth, rather than in a pot.
Bill quick question buddy, I flused my autoflower thats in coco and my leafs are looking droppy, the ph of the coco is reading 6.1. Flushed her with plane ph'd water of 5.8, ppm is reading 640 of the water that came out of the coco. Any recommendations?
Oi Rutjumper, thinking of you... for all the good it does you I'm not sure why I mention it... ach, that's kinda negative of me, every little bit helps us fragile creatures, doesn't it? I know you're "up against it" these days, like for real, and in whatever state of matter you happen to be in at this moment you will always be a fekking legend. So there's that. Not that being a legend can be cashed in for groceries and some 89 octane... (reliably) but it counts for something all the same. Miss you, and was wondering if you'd had some news, good or ill. Like I said, thinking of you.
I see your status, impressed. Any words of wisdom for me . Backstory I popped 20seeds before I got this far , grizzly n Dutch. I’m well happy, didn’t release how much stress was involved in growing it’s worth it though

@Bill284 nICE pICTURE LOL ALMOST AS NICE AS MY CAPS KEY well just wanted to touch base after a week of tending to everyone in the house sitting on the hopper with a bucket as puke and shit pour out both ends Hell week is over. How are things with you guys hope all is well. I got 5 plants in solo cups 2 have popped above ground and im checking the other 3 every 15 minutes Hope the others break thru soon I guess if I want them to pop up. I need to start 2 more for back ups and the originals will pop up and ill have 2 plants extra. or I could be patient . How did you make those little supports you used to stabilize your babies last time? I want to use them and see if I can get a little taller before I start getting side branches.
I had a better harvest than I expected the weed is amazing I havent smoked it bu7t just the amount of trichomes and sooooo sticky I was constantly cleaning my snips with alcohol the tent smells like fresh cut grass in a pile of tangerine peels so I think they are doing the breaking down of the chlorophyll.
any way arenty ya glad I dont run to ya 5 times a day with my hair on fire? you prolly have 5 new people keeping ya hopping now .
you are a good man Just wanted to drop a line and say hey
Talk to ya soon
Stay safe
