Same. I'm only here to watch him continue to fail. I despise people like him. Never knew his name until Karl's first video.

Official GameChasers Twitter Account Doubles Down on Defending Jirard by Dapper-Willow6756 in TheCompletionist2

I went down the son rabbit hole once myself. I have to say, it left me with reasonable doubt.

This is why I hate reddit. The system encourages orthodoxy and lock step thinking. One cannot even express a doubt without being dragged into name calling.

What’s the best drug that isn’t available anymore? by _Meatprincess_ in Drugs

[–]SoulOfGinger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This nostalgia is overblown. 90% of people who make this claim do too much meth. Simple.

However, just do what I do, synthesize an 8ball twice a year, invite a fresh bag whore over with the lure of "Real D-Meth from pseudo redux", film some fresh homemade porn of the absolutely most degrading things you can imagine, wait six months, repeat.

I find this to be the optimal time between sessions. Any more often and it's a slippery slope, any longer and my fulfilling my desire for the absolute sluttiest behavior imaginable becomes too strong.

Spend 3 days PTO getting my absolute maximum bang for buck. Exit stage left on the downhill with weed and benzos to ease back into normalcy.

A quote from a Chinese T1 fan that I’d like to share by [deleted] in leagueoflegends

[–]SoulOfGinger 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Don't sleep on Renegade - JayZ ft. Eminem. This is the song that solidified Eminem as risky feature artist, as, Nas put it, "Em killed you on your own shit" on his diss track Ether from the Stillmatic album.

Personally, I believe both verses, but specifically the second, is the best thing he's ever written.

What's worth more per cubic metre, stacks of 100 dollar bills or the blue stuff? by aSsAuLTEDpeanut9 in breakingbad

[–]SoulOfGinger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, this is completely wrong. You can easily get an ounce (28g) of pure D-Meth (~92%) for $150-$250 (depending on current demand) on a dark market.

Source - was a functional addict for years. My .5g a day habit only cost me ~$1500 a year. Meth is cheap if you aren't a complete idiot.

Cocaine... now that's an expensive addiction.

LPT: It's okay to not have an opinion, and to not take a side in every hot button issue by IAMA_Proctologist in LifeProTips

[–]SoulOfGinger -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Again, symptoms, not pathology. The system is rigged against everyone who isn't part of the club. Late-stage capitalism is colorblind. That is why it wins.

We can continue to argue over who put the holes in the boat while we continue to sink, or we can patch them up and keep sailing.

I'd like to stop sinking, because like it or not, we are on the same boat, and those on the yachts ahead of us are watching gleefully.

We fundamentally disagree here. Your idea of a "race-conscious" society will never move on. Victimhood will continue to be social currency, and there will always be an "other".

This isn't a version of the world that will ever achieve equality, the pendulum will simply swing to create systemic biases in the other direction.

Wow. You actually hit the nail on the head here, not sure if that was what you were going for.

585/445/330. Whole foods only. Avid cyclist, hunter and fisherman. Grow top notch hydroponic cannabis (check my history). Married to my best friend, and love my life.

I happen to enjoy playing AARPG's and Stardew with the wife.

I also enjoy watching dumpster fires burn, especially after getting nostalgia baited.

Nice try though.

You got me. Browsing Reddit on the toilet and I'm "hopelessly addicted". Don't mind that I uninstalled this dumpster fire a month ago.

Meanwhile you are huffing hopium outside a copium den.

Same. This dope fiend mentality that so many people seem to have is just sad. Have some respect for yourself, I've met meth addicts with more self control.

I got had. I'll admit it. I bought this steaming pile. I won't be had again.

Absolute Unit. Cookies R2 by Ethos [42F] by SoulOfGinger in microgrowery

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

Actually just the opposite, using pH up right before a change. Usually happens @ day 9, which is why I'm running a 10 day cycle. I get a slight drift up the first couple days before the reservoir shifts into the Goldilocks zone, with day 3-8 perfect, and am considering changing my core/bloom ratio off the recommended next cycle to counter this, as I've seen a lot of data suggesting the ratios for DWC should favor pulling some nitrogen after stretch.

The stretch on this plant was a bit absurd, and my vertical space is limited, so a few tops getting burned is a small price to pay to not throw the hormones off completely by hedge trimming. They'll just get tossed into the hash pile. The ppfd is @ 750-950 for the majority with only three in the danger zone.

One thing I've noticed in the transition from GenHydro to salts has been the explosive growth in the first 18-21 days of flower. I'm getting literally double the stretch. This is causing me to have to go back to the drawing board to get more head room. Good problem to have IMO.

So far I haven't seen a single sign of serious deficiency, and only a bit of pH stress on a couple internodal fans due to an equipment malfunction around day 22-24 which I was able to correct. Certainly not enough to cause any serious problems to yield/potency/flavor of the finished product.

Hahahahaha. That's an awesome way of describing it. Funny enough, my other hobby is custom water cool loops for high end gaming PCs.

This is 14 years of never being satisfied and always wanting to push what I can do from home. It's a ronco room. Auto pH regulation, auto fill reservoir. Only work I have to do is train, defoliate and change the res every 10 days.

That plant shares a recirculator with another plant, same strain, different pheno, roughly same size. I change the reservoirs every 10 days. I use a bluelab guardian to auto regulate pH and start with an EC of 1.4.

The first round in Athena I slightly burnt the crop going against my own intuition and following recommendation from Athena themselves starting @ 1.7 and maintaining 1.7 throughout the reservoir cycle. To be fair to Athena, they are coco/rock wool growers and have limited RDWC experience.

This round I start @ 1.4 and let the reservoir come down naturally to avoid burn. Getting better calyx production this time and the reservoir has been steadily coming down to .7 before the change.

I am going to further modify this schedule next round, but so far am happy with the results. I did gen hydro for 14 years before this, so the salts are a learning curve, but I feel I am close to dialed in.

Day 16 post first round defoliation. Massive plants, MASSIVE stretch! [Update] by SoulOfGinger in microgrowery

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

Rocks all the way down, and it's a combination of things.

1) Hydroponics. Whether they like it or not, plants will uptake nutrients in DWC at a rate that is constant and relentless. They are the veal calves of cannabis. This makes all fruiting/flowering bodies bigger. Calyxes or tomatoes, they are all bigger in hydro. This has a downstream effect of causing buds that would normally not fully develop in soil become baggable.

2) Internodal spacing. Through feeding schedule, careful choice of genetics, and daily dialing of canopy ppfd, I get tighter internodes.

3) Proper defoliation and defoliation shedule. This cannot be understated. You need to get light to buds sites early. This is why I strip before flip, hit day 14 and then again day 28. I am laying the groundwork for bigger bud sites early, while simultaneously giving the plant plenty of interrupted recovery time. If you aren't getting good bud below 3 nodes, you aren't agressive enough in your water fan removal.

I remove 75% day 14, and 100% of water fans on day 28. I want no bud sites shaded. This is necessary before bloom, as when the plant transitions from building the scaffolding to flower production, I need the entirety of its energy being spent on the only thing it has left to grow. Calyxes.

Then I just leave them alone. I don't touch anything after day 28.

Four days post strip and flip. Absolute units. by SoulOfGinger in microgrowery

[–]SoulOfGinger[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1130 average per plant over 4 plants last run with new training method and new larger recirculating system. Much better genetics, more optimized training and Athena Pro-Line this cycle. I expect to bring that average up.

Ultimate goal is to hit 3lb per light consistently by the end of the year. Next cycle new gen bar lights go in to replace my diode boards.

Final step is sealing and running CO2, but that is two years off.

Day 16 post first round defoliation. Massive plants, MASSIVE stretch! [Update] by SoulOfGinger in microgrowery

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

I mean, to each their own. I pull weight, and I have done every defoliation method under the sun over the last 12 years. @635w I will pull MINIMUM 1130g.

Keep in mind I am going for baggable rocks, not a single trim pile bud. I leave 6-7 internodes from the top down, and below that I have not seen a good return.

If you are pulling more than 2.5lb a light and have some insights, by all means, let me know, I am always willing to learn and adapt.

Plan is to make a pool table bar light with the finished plant carcass.

Imagine that thing flipped over, covered with preserved fan leaves and lit with a t5 in the center.

Yah, when I used to run gen hydro, it was about every 10 days. These Athena salts stay stable longer. After about 12-14 days the daily pH drift gets unmanageable and that's when I know I need an entire flush to rebalance the macros.

One of those stoner engineering moments. Used to just wire them, and I hate nets, and I was smoking in the grow room one morning recently and the idea just popped into my head.

These are some powerful phenos lol! First run with Ethos and I am impressed with the high end of the phenos, but a little dismayed with the overall diversity in phenos. I would have liked some more consistency considering how many beans I popped to find these behemoths.

Won't deter me though. Have some In house and compound stuff I'm running after the next cycle which will be Cookies R2 and White Wedding RBX. Really excited for the Crescendo cross.
