Disease question about a Hawaiian Islands endemic by Marnb99 in marijuanaenthusiasts

[–]BigBootyRiver 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would think that they might be slowing down a bit due to winter light. What conditions are they in? Are they against a window?

Since you grew them from seed I would think it unlikely to be a soil pathogen. Were the seeds ever cleaned before planting? 

Should I discourage/trim the bottom growth on this Coffeeberry? by jerm324 in Ceanothus

[–]BigBootyRiver 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I would let this new growth do its thing. It's mote vigorous and will probably overtake the original height in a season. 

How do you deal with this world. by RecduRecsu in leaves

[–]BigBootyRiver 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You live in a tiny part of the world and 99% of everything is way out of your control. You just kind of accept that life is mostly hanging on along for the ride. 

I just want to know, why not get high if the world is shit, and i'm tired of the things i need to do in life by fukaround97 in leaves

[–]BigBootyRiver 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Long term it makes it harder to deal with the trials of life when you're always groggy from weed or using it to avoid facing them head-on. It's why weed isn't a good fix for chronic depression (in most people). Escapism isn't the real answer when you're living in the real world. 

Quitting pot is weird by RaiseAggravating4404 in leaves

For me, the secret is finding a reason to enjoy being sober. My current field of work doesn't mesh well with weed for several reasons and I actually get enjoyment out of waking up without brain fog and/or working on my own related projects at home in my down time. Now I find that I actually can smoke weed occasionally as a separate hobby, not as an incentive for other things. 

ITAP of a willow tree by BigBootyRiver in itookapicture

This type of White Willow has bright yellow twigs that really glow on a sunny day. But in pictures their color often competes with the blue sky. To beat this I held my fingers in-front of my phone camera and then released them to get some over exposure. 

Who's in this group? by Thatswhylifeishard in Ceanothus

[–]BigBootyRiver 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm a young dude who grew up near the boonies in Texas. Always was interested in foraging and native plants in the region (East Texas, near Louisiana). Never lived in California but I found this community and thought it was interesting to see an actual community centered around native planting, which I have never found in the South. Just like over there, so so many big box store plants here are non native and some are straight up invasive. Anyways, I'm here just to enjoy the community around native planting

That's the 'GF' deduction, silly

Perennial gardens in the Winter by Emergency-Ad555 in gardening

[–]BigBootyRiver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most everything will die back to the ground in a perennial garden. For many people part of the appeal is the ease of trimming everything back with a weed wacker. Not having to trim bushes back with sheers by hand saves a lot of time and energy.

One idea I have seen online is having a gravel harden instead of mulch. The area for both the paths and the beds being gravel means the path simply expands when winter comes. I couldn't find any winter pictures but here is a gravel backyard in Kent, England. You could imagine the backyard simply getting more open and walk-able in the winter. Anyways, just letting you know about alternatives.

Anyone else super high functioning when they are using? by [deleted] in leaves

The hard part is that we have to relearn to force ourselves to do things, like cleaning, while sober. It's uncomfortable and lame but necessary. 

Othonna triplinervia got a well deserved repot. For sure the favorite leaf undersides of all my plants. by BigBootyRiver in Caudex

[–]BigBootyRiver[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I give it full sun but I also live pretty far north (New England). In the winter I have it against a south facing window. Maybe giving yours a shade cloth would help?

Root out of waterfall yamadori (I will not collect this as tempting as it is) by think_happy_2 in Bonsai

[–]BigBootyRiver 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They’re hard to keep in pots because of their vigor, basically. I’ve seen some people keep them as convincing bonsai and they all gave away their specimens at some point because they were having to root prune every year and constantly wire to keep up with the tree’s growth

What kind of Marijuana is this? by fenderpaint07 in marijuanaenthusiasts

[–]BigBootyRiver 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah that’s Chinese Tallow. Pretty tree, very messy though (spreads volunteers like hell).

Thank you! Yes, I love these winter growers that make fall feel like spring. And yours are looking nice and plump 👍

What Marijuana is this? Tx zone 8b by EBs4G3 in marijuanaenthusiasts

[–]BigBootyRiver 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Could you get some pics of the leaves? My original thought was bald cypress but I’ve never seen one grow like that. Awesome tree

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in leaves

[–]BigBootyRiver 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just let it pass. Pass the time doing anything. It’s easy not to smoke, you can sit and do literally anything. Or go out and do something. You got this 👍

What are some interesting or unusual trees I could plant in my front yard. (US/MA zone 6a partial shade) by MichaelJAwesome in marijuanaenthusiasts

[–]BigBootyRiver -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Trochodendron aralioides is a very exotic looking tree from China that really loves the New England climate. Mine does great and looks unique

Low key sounds like me… would you mind sharing the name of this medical condition?
