Number 1 old fart tip

B

BrnCow

If you want to please your woman, ask her what she likes, get good at it, and do it to her...

Don't drive over 30 MPH on dirt or gravel roads...otherwise front tires will pick up nails and the back tires will catch them if they don't have enough time to fall over before it gets there...

C+W's top tips...in no particular order...

1) Don't get complacent...there are always improvements you can make and new things to learn.
2) Spend time with your plants...observe, pay attention, be proactive.
3) Learn from your plants...this is the hebalist's way.
4) Take notes...there is no way you will remember everything you want to.
5) Make seeds! Make seeds! Make seeds! (Oh and grow them too!)
6) All that glitters (or is crystally) is not gold.
7) In life, do as much for yourself as possible...in doing so, you learn valuable skills and get to admire jobs well done. Plus, someone else will likely not care about quality nearly as much as you.
8) Grow other plants...preferably lots of other plants...it will make you a better grower, and is good cover too.
9) For dirt growers - to leave your garden for 1-2 weeks without having to check on it: Transplant everything right before you leave, water/feed, MULCH everything (1-2" coco coir is good), water again - making sure they are drenched before you go. Raise the lights to appropriate heights to allow for growth; and, trim any in veg that may grow too much while you are gone. Also, having the same cut at different veg stages (e.g. in the dome, in 4", and in 6") reduces risks of losing the genetics while away. A further step we sometimes take is burying small planters into large trays of dirt for extra moisture when taking extended trips.
10) Be hermitty...be very hermitty.

Can't remember ??

if you lose track of your thoughts in your growspace and can't remember if you've done something like add a nutrient or water just wait a bit. if you just flat can't remember skip it until next time.

What you'll find genious after tonight's last joint, is what you'll find irrelevant after tomorrow's first joint.

Get reading glasses. Like 15 pairs and leave them everywhere, car, shower, I mean every where. You're gonna need them, and your going to lose them constantly.
 
1. Never iron your clothes naked.
2. Forget the crossword puzzles to keep your mind active, it can cause more frustration than is good for you. If you're right handed start doing things with your left instead and vise a versa. It will work out your mind on both sides and you never know how odd it is to wipe you arse with your other hand until you have to.
3. What Toby said above! Even keep the broken ones for a "just in case" day, they will happen!
4. Listen to your elders, at our age anyone older than us won't be around much longer.
5. Grow like it's legal if it's not, and don't tell no one, when asked "where'd you get the good bud" just say "you know a guy", and leave it at that.
6. Try and remember ALL 10 of the things you were planning to say here and write them down on scrap paper, (I'll remember when I'm in line at the store).

Everyone, lefty or righty, jerks off with their right hand. It's hard wired into your brain. Even monkeys do it that way. Remember that next time you are at the zoo.
