Sleepy - thanks! - yeah i'm lucky to be able to spend some time with the kids

hella - thats pretty much it - just enough time to chuck some water on them

milehigh - yeah - its illegal in UK so i wouldnt want to burden my kids with having to keep a secret. they dont know i even smoke really but my eldest is probably starting to realise so i'm happy to let him think it's cigarettes :)
taking drugs when young - before your brain has stopped developing - is likely to cause damage research shows and i think it's best to leave it till you are older and have some idea of who you are:noway: - so the longer i keep it to myself the better. Ill probably have to stop growing for a couple of years when they get older.

topped the JTR today and will put in the flowering cab to sex them on saturday if i get the chance. the rest are looking good. :woohoo::woohoo:

cheers

A lot of credible research says this same thing. Introduction to substances, of any kind, before 16-18 can stunt emotional growth. It's not terribly "oh my god" harmful, but it's safe to say until your brain has worked out its kinks, its best to let it be sober. I'm a hypocrite for saying that as I started my marijuana use at 16, but it probably wasn't the wisest move on my part.

And you got a point VG, it wouldn't be fair to the kids to have the burden of secrecy on them, and unless you're confronted with the issue, it's best to leave it to yourself for now. After all, lying and avoidance are two very very different things.

Anyway, didn't want to get off topic, but this is an interesting subject none the less.

Hi there V.G

Always showing some wisdow...
In my oppinion you are right protecting your kids.

I started to smoke so early.
I was 13 at my first time....

I have serious emotional problems between 13-17.
And I I learned is : the older you hit a joint the better!

Education is always to complicated.


Anyway...enjoy the kids!


All the best bro

kids around the grow? When they're so little they can't tell, and won't remember. Unless you live in a hippy commune.

Just dropped in to say hey, how's it going.

thanks all for stopping by! - happy halloween - do you like my pumpkin?

BeAn - times were hard back then mate ;) - we didnt know any better.

hi Hella - yeah my oldest will be a teenager soon - that scares me a little, but he's an exceptionally good kid.

NOF - i started pretty young too but i didnt really smoke regularly till i went to college (which is prime smoking time imo :) )

hey hazy! - thanks for stopping by mate - i heard a funny but quite scarey story about a young kid who, in class, they were going round asking what their parents did for a living, and the kid said 'my dad sells little bits of mud to people - he cuts it up on the coffee table' ah! the innocence of youth :yoinks:

Tonatiuh - nice one for checking in - i do what i can in the little cab :joint:

hi Von! - thanks! - i cant wait to post some new pics. the cheese is just starting to 'stack' the calyxes a bit and the Black Forrest has put on a growth spurt with the buds fattening up considerably :woohoo:

cheers

Hey V.
I had to stop in and say hi. I've just sat here and read your thread from front to back. Dude, its ace.!!!
I can tell from the pics that you're going to love that cheese. It's all i've ever grown (uk clone only ) for at least the past 8 years and i can honestly say it's better than anything on the planet in my opinion.
Think i may make this my new home if thats cool with you.....:joint:

little bits of mud , hope that dirt weed and not heroin , i know this grandma that sells weed and watches over a 2 year old, she already caught him playing with weed by weighing it on the scale

dondeago - thanks for stopping by! - any tips on the cheese greatly appreciated! - when do you pull it for a nice 'up' high?? i noticed the trics are already truning milky at 50+ days. how many amber should i go for ??.

mrred - i always presumed the 'mud' was hash. in UK hash was the general staple until people started growing their own. imported weed wasn't always available.

your PP is looking extra fine there Verdant G.. I have some coming out today tomorrow or the next day too... gotta love how they stack up the crystal :)

personally, i like to get battered!!!!:abduct: so i always leave for 60 days plus.
But my friends that sample my goods don't usualy like that . About 1/3 amber should be perfect for most peoples needs.

As for tips...... Cheese is a doddle really.
I have had Zero hermie on me. I've had nothing less than 2oz off an individual lady every time ( i usually run 2 at 12/12 but this time i'm doing 4) with a 250 lite

She clones like a dream but is a little suseptable to bugs ( mites ect... )

Only issue i have ever had with it is the smell....
my Significant other constantly nagging about how bad that bloody stinks up the place. Constant battle for me. :dueling: well worth it though!

Hey V glad youv'e survived half term, just think, only 6 weeks or so til the christmas holidays!!

one good thing about not spending so much time with the ladies is noticing more how much they've grown!:dance:

On the Cheese front, always difficult knowing when to chop growing a strain for the 1st time esp when you just have the one plant, you WILL no doubt be runnin the cheese again so i dont know if you have considered (i know some say its naughty and you probly already have) but taking a few sample buds at 55 a few at 60 and then chop the rest at 65ish days?! at least then you'l know for next time as youve got that environment nice and stable and you'l be using clones!?!

anyways we could be moving into interesting times for us homegrowers, keep it growing strong!!:joint:

JamieShoes - thanks mate - the PP is a cut that has been around in UK for a while - probably for commercial reasons. i love the PP high and i have found early smokes of mine have better taste/smell than most others ive had - probably the guano and organics ;)
i took it 8 weeks

dondeago - thanks for the pointers - it does smell quite a bit but i find the phat filter i have can cope with it. i'm interested in the smell after chop too. i personally doubt it will smell as strong as my blueberry which stinks out the whole upstairs of my house when i open the jar! - but we will see. cant wait to smoke some....

daddyf - i do have 2 plants in there so i'll probably do as you suggest. ive only posted pics of the second one a couple of times as it is a week or so behind the first but it will possibly turn out even better - pics of the 2 cheese are a couple of pages back and i'll have new pics in a few days hopefully.
what do you mean by 'interesting times' mate??

cheers :joint:

sounds like the PP cut we have here in NL...she's also a cash croppers dream, can be taken at 8, though I always let it go 9. Friends say mine stands out, most likely because of this, I think :)


if you're ever over this way, give me a shout, maybe we can compare notes ;)
 
Hey VG - Looks like that cheese is coming along nicely.... how long you got left for them?? Are they Nirvana?? or is this the real ''cheese'' thats famous in the UK??

dondeago - lol - got you about the smell. i'm looking forward to it :joint:

daddy fingaz - i'll hopefully have some new photos of the second one tomorrow. it was vegged slightly less but may come out the better for it. i was worried about lack of stretch on the cheese and vegged em for 6-8 weeks i think.

JamieShoes - the PP cut i have is supposed to be a seven week chop but i like to let most plants go a bit longer. i repot when i start flower and i think this may delay flowering slightly too.

hey unitedrule - yep this is the real deal UK cheese :woohoo:first time ive grown it.
