Keep up the good working presenting the facts about pharmaceuticals and dr's to the public.

Back to the grow. I was doing the scrog before but didn't realize it. Funny how you can read something a dozen times over and it doesn't register until the final time. I went ahead and placed the wire hooks and twine back in the mix to train the growth horizontal. Will see how this goes for a...

I had never before been on pharmaceutical pain med for nephropathy. It's non-narcotic but when mixed with narcotic (hydro/acet) the effect gets magnified. The dr. who prescribed it acted like it wasn't going to be a problem. He was seriously wrong. I'm also taking serious doses of cal/mag to...

RogueTech, I just finished some tutorials on scroging. It looks like something I will try. My idea was to let the stems grow upward and then keep on topping but now see with a scrog I need to force them into a horizontal reach rather than so much vertical. I just happened to catch in time to...

It will just take some time for my chemistry and wiring to re adjust. I really do believe the weed has healing properties like you say. I will just take some time to...

Thanks AngryBird, doing much much better. I don't know why I thought I could put steroids in my body. Decided to go all the way with detox of prescriptions. Thank the MM plant gods I get relief from the bud. I hope to have learned my lesson this time around with the pain scripts from the dr...

Been awhile since last post. The dr. gave me an inhaler with steriods for my COPD and it made me real ill. Just got back to normal.....whatever that is on a day to day basis. I did a second topping and now some serious training of branches. The plastic cartons with soil in the pics are carrots...
