Holy Shit....my cannabinoid therapy for the flu works!! One Volcano bag every 4 hours (sativa strains only) and gatorade....lots of gatorade. Feeling much better.

As Capt. Kirk said in one of the Star Trek movies:

KHAN!!!!

Yeah, going from hot to cold with dramatic temp swings sucks worse than the gradual slow march.

No....nevermind, fuck that, what was I thinking....there is 3 inches of snow here....I would rather be in Florida....even with the temp swings.

Keep it warm....I'm coming!!

komrade komura is k-k-kold

Some of us have already signed the petition (some time ago) We just need more people to sign it, then comes the fight to actually pass it into law. I think one of the biggest problems getting people to sign is that PUFFM also wants a 5.00 or more donation with every signature (does not seem to be a way to sign without donating), I understand why they want the money for the legislative fight, but a lot of people feel that their signature should be enough, you should not HAVE to pay to get your signature counted by PUFFM

Indeed.

Yes Blaner I agree...for those ppl that donate a hundred or so dollars should make up for multiple singular donations of $5.
Where the FUCK is the private sector when we NEED them?
Fuckin pharmaceutical companies.
Florida is their last stronghold.
Bastards.

I know this is in the growers section..i hope you guys don't mind my (quick) infiltration. A few questions if you would be so kind:

Theoretically: 24 plants and under. No priors. I get popped. Norml says up to 5 years.

What am I looking at realistically? Fl has the worst reputation for growers in the country that I know of, but alas a friend on here has told me it's over-hyped. Thoughts? I adore FL (and unlike CA can actually afford it) but I think I would have a different opinion of the Florida Penitentiary System.

Can anybody point me in the direction of experience in your life with a Florida bust and what you got..or perhaps some news that has encouraged/discouraged you relative to the penalties of a bust?

Thanks in advance. Sorry to intrude. You have a lovely state.


EDIT: I haven't been arrested I was just considering a FL move. Thanks for the concern, sorry I was confusing.

No two busts, cops, prosecutors, judges, lawyers, etc are the same so...
Up to 5 years is for the worst of the worst, who happens to have under 25 plants. It is the MAXIMUM you can get. You're no where's near that level, if what youre saying is true as far as no prior's and being under the limit.
No matter how little/much time you're facing, get the best lawyer you can afford. Can a first year public defender handle a small pot case like yours? Yes. Can an experienced attorney who specializes in drug cases get you a much better deal or mount a better defense? YES!

PS. Sorry to hear you got popped, I hope you exercised your right to remain silent...

Thanks so much for the info bro! No I've never been popped, never grown in FL just thinkin about moving!

I just don't know if I have the balls. It's a real shame. Affordable beaches and my kind of women. But if you can't do the time don't do the crime, and if it's even in the vicinity of 5 years...I can't do that kinda time. My life ain't great but it's too damn good to risk that.

Peace.

 

[Guest 18340]

You won't get anywhere near 5 years IF things are as you described. More like probation. and if you're a good boy for a few years you can more than likely get it wiped off your record.
But I agree with you 100%, if you can't do the time, don't do the crime. Period.

if you can't take the heat...

got a ? for all the coco guys
im thinkin of settin up a drain to waste coco setup outdoors with a mix of coco and lava rocks in 5 or 10 - 5 gallon buckets with a 55 gall rez

how many times a day and how much water should go to each bucket? i was thinkin 2-3 gallons a bucket 1 gallon at a time 3 times a day {sun up, midday ,sundown} does this sound like it would work ? should i go more or less with amount or frequincy?

i have never worked with coco but i want to do some outdoor hydro and this sounds like the least hassle



also Boo how do u do ur cookies butter or oil? and what ratio's do u use trim to butter/oil amounts? no nasty erb taste but packs a good kick



stay safe

[Guest 18340]

I run coco outside all the time...If the lava rocks don't hold water then I would'nt use them in an outside grow, it will only cause you to have to water more often. Thats said, you don't have to water so much like you posted, once a day is fine. Unless it's above 90, then you'd have to water more often. (In the summer heat, I usually have to water 3x a day to keep them hydrated)
And water 'til you see a little run off. Not much just enough to know the water made it's way to the bottom.
Coco+outdoors=

I like butter, I guess it depends on what you prefer cooking with. Some people use butter, some people use oil. I like the taste of butter....so. Yeh. PLUS then I can make.......
GANJA SCAMPI.
Shit is almost pure butter.
Mmm.
And about how much to put in....
However much you want.
I

EDIT. For full tutorial on CannaButta....PM ME!

[toasted1]

Evl- thanx for the info and visual insperation

Ioni- thanx for the info i have made butter b4, i was just wonder'n how Boo did his butter cuz theres no canna flavor in his cookies and even when ive removed trimm from butter froze then reboil the butter for a second time to remove any left overs i still can taste/smell canna maybe its the type of cookie i always make chocolate chip maybe i should try oatmeal raisin cuz it hides flavor better?

ahh well ill figure it out got some trim to make into cookies for my cruise. i figure its easier and less likely to get caught if i bring cookies instead of bud

Thanks for the props guys. That bush was grown this summer, it was a gfxbb. I had 2 of them outside like that. Talk about a security risk...
Hell yeah toasted1, cookies is the way to travel. I'm gonna be going to Malta for a month this spring and I'm sure as hell taking some cookies along for the flight.
Whatever boo did, he knows his shit 'cause mine had only the tiniest canna taste. And that was in the the last bite.
My wife loves cooking with canna, gonna have to get some recipes from you Ioni!
On a different note, it's cold as a mofo outside! I've got all the lights on in my flower room, uncooled, and temps barely hit 73. Nice
Here's a sneak peek, 16 C99's vegging for a few more days...

 

[Ioni Botani]

Oh hell yes E....thar she blows!

 

[Guest 88950]

evl, you gotta love these cooler temps. no need for AC.

i just called around looking for some Kelp Meal and theres none around b/c the distributor who imports it into the US hasnt paid their fees associated with importing kelp meal, says the profit margin is too low.

gotta find a substitute for the Kelp in my organic soil (subcools soil).

btw, plant "C" is just over 30 days and Trich's all over the leaves, top and bottom. my second harvest will be much better for sure. i also took 2 clones each off the 4 plants in flower, they were the lower shoots. i didnt want to clone while in flower but i dont want to loose these after harvest. day 2 and all 8 clones look healthy.

it doesnt take long for plant count to go up, im now at 15 total. just trying to keep 2 cuts a piece alive until i can test out the moms to see which one i want to keep around.

i cant imagine keeping a variety of moms around b/c ill be ove 25 plants. fckn laws, oh well.

I'm in my 13th week ( day 93) of flowering, two weeks on Wednesday of flushing and the girls looking real good!
Thing is, I find an amber here and there but that's it. As far as the color of the trics they haven't changed since I started flushing, 99% cloudy. I found some amber two weeks ago when I started flushing.
Now as far as the amount of trics,....thats where the changes are happening! There are far more, and are much more visible then before. The changes are almost daily. Some of the buds are longer then my arm, and nice and dense. I've noticed on the bottoms of some buds they are light green and the hairs are past red, I ASSUME this is because they are receiving little light down there by the screen. Hell it's shaggier then a 70' porno in there.
Some buds look more mature then others, the difference being that they have about 55-60% red hairs were as the others are more like 15-30% red.

Boy, I've got to tell ya' , these girl's are real nice looking, but damn they've got some leg's on em! Looks almost like I could multi-harvest her for weeks. That the breaks with bag seed, never know how long they'll go. Alas we won't find out how long though, I have to finish these up so changes can be made on that box and the one next to it. They were the first grow box's I'd built, and there for a work in progress.

I have some Nirvana White Widow clones in the cloner that should be ready to go in a couple of days, a little veging, and in those box's they go. Then I'll have a better idea of what to expect.

Or you could graft more then one strain on one plant.
Heres a vid on grafting.
