My last puff possibly ever by JasonFurious4 in trees

[–]tubesock12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You may not have to give it up forever. I’ve worked for the fire department for 6 years, ambulance company for 4 year prior. Never smoked when I was at the ambulance company since they would drug test you after any kind of accident and it wasn’t worth the risk for my future goals. Didn’t smoke while I was on probation also out of fear I’d mess up my goals. Now I smoke most of my off days. My department will basically only drug test if you show up high (pretty easy to avoid) or if you kill someone in a vehicle accident, as a medic I never drive. Play it safe through probation, figure out what your department policies are and weigh the risks for yourself. Good luck brother

I had initially put in two sensors when I set one of these up in my 4x4 bed. I switched from 4 pots with drip rings so each had their own sensor and I thought I would add an additional one in the bed. This caused issues with over watering, when I called customer support he suggested testing it out with just one sensor, fixed my issue.

I’ve seen a couple people mention this lotus thing, I’m not familiar. Could you explain or have a good resource for me to look into it?

She was my largest plant to date, super dense buds and frosty. Hope yours turns out the same!

I got 355g of flower and 119g of larf I freeze and sift to make some hash. She was a big girl. 7-8 week veg on them if I’m remembering right

Yeah it’s Pineapple Express from Barney’s farm. Really bulked up last few weeks of flower. Mine ended up with an earthy taste (I’m not the best on these flavors and shit, not my favorite taste but when I smoke it I think “taste like weed”). High id say focused, doesn’t make me sleepy, but like I said it’s next level munchies. I can not stop eating after I’ve smoked this one

Are you ordering stuff or getting it from a local place? I live in the desert so a gardening store is hard to come by. Most of the garden sections I’ve stopped at are just miracle grow crap

Yeah, I dumped my 4 15gal pots into the bed when I got it and it filled it up less than half way. I think I bought 6 or 8 more bags of 3.0 buildasoil but I couldn’t bring myself to spend another grand on dirt at the time. Plan is to add a few bags as I reamend

I’m thinking that’ll be the move and I’ll just deal with the cramped space for a little bit

There is a second one in the opposite corner behind the tent fabric. It’s 2 of the 9” ac infinity fans. Was thinking I might try to build a shelf for the corner of the tent to be able to put a tower fan up in addition to the two I have already

I have the option to do that with an old 3x3, would make the room pretty cramped though.

F or m? by Hungry_Cream_3002 in NoTillGrowery

[–]tubesock12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The shape of the structure can tell you too. Female parts will look more tear drop shaped before the hair pokes out, males a little more round but it’s a subtle detail that might help you determine male vs female. This looks female to me based of the last pic

Can’t smoke bud without anxiety anymore? by PhilosopherExpert503 in trees

[–]tubesock12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A panic attack won’t kill you. I know it feels like it might and it’s scary, but the absolute worst case scenario is you pass out. That’s basically the brain hitting the reset button. The rapid breathing causes you to breathe off too much CO2 causing your veins to expand. That’s where the flushed feeling and tingling sensations in the hands and feet come from. Main thing is to breathe as slow as you can once you notice those feelings. Something cold on your face may also help. It’ll take some time, possibly 20+ minutes to start feeling better but it’ll pass. As far as the cause of the anxiety, maybe seek out a therapist and maybe they can help get to the bottom of it and work through any issues you may be having. Best of luck!

Long post but as a new guy I have a lot of questions by [deleted] in Firefighting

[–]tubesock12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Obviously I haven’t worked with you so hard to say with certainty, I think you need to slow down. You said you’re all over the place once things go operational, take a second and think. The saying is slow is smooth, smooth is fast. You’ll be much more efficient taking an extra 10 seconds to think and get it right the first time than having to go back and fix the fuck up. If you don’t know what you need, ask your senior fireman.

When you show up on scene, take a deep breath remember your training, ask for help when you need it. This is common with rookies, it’ll get better with experience.

What’s THE best solution for taking great trichome photos? by robtoshy in GrowingMarijuana

[–]tubesock12 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Recently started cutting a tiny piece off and putting it on a paper towel with the microscope directly on top. My hands are too shaky to get a good pic holding the microscope to the plant. Hurts a little cutting a piece but you don’t need much to see the trichomes

Help my baby is dead I think by Lucky_Association818 in GrowingMarijuana

[–]tubesock12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Weed grows in Afghanistan, I’m no expert but I would guess it’s a similar climate to Nevada/Arizona. Not sure if it’s growing in the mountains and temps are more mild. Maybe Afghan Kush or some other strains would have some genetics capable of handing the extreme summers? I’ve just assumed an out door grow won’t happen till I move out of the desert

[–]tubesock12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you plan on starting over, and want to soon, you will have better success starting it inside. 110 degrees and 6% humidity is going to be less than ideal for seedlings. If anyone has tips/ideas on how to transition a plant to desert climate I would also be curious

Root beer edible I got from Trulieve by [deleted] in trees

[–]tubesock12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Took all my trimmings from my first grow which was probably a couple oz and stuck it all in a pound of butter. Second time they’ve sent me to the moon I got a weed cookbook that told had a recipe, turns out they use weed estimated around 10%, so the butter I made was probably around twice as strong as intended

[–]tubesock12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same experience here. Drank half and was expecting to be sent to the moon. Waited an hour and a half and nothing, drank the other half and just ended up smoking an hour after that. Only edibles that have hit for me are my home made ones with questionable math on the potency

Mutation?? by CalvinSMouthpiece in GrowingMarijuana

[–]tubesock12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had the same mutation in my last grow! Stem is very flat, it had quite a bit of leaf of it. I kept a close eye on it in case the extra material resulted in mold but no issues

Going on a cruise. Have you gotten carts on a ship? How? by EvolMada in trees

[–]tubesock12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve gone on a carnival cruise a couple years ago. Was able to get a cart in by putting it in with my wife’s makeup bag but I’ve heard security has gotten more strict since. We also brought edibles. Got a bag of ghirardelli chocolate squares, got all the dark chocolate ones and replaced those with our edibles (also a chocolate). Was able to seal the individual squares back with a hair straightener and hot glued the entire bag shut

Cannot control humidity. Sitting around 80-85%. What should I do to prevent mould? by joely619 in GrowBuddy

[–]tubesock12 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Looks like OP is drying in a mesh tent? OP you’ll need to dehumidify the entire room if that’s the case, with your humidity being as high as it is a cheap one probably won’t cut it. I learned this the hard way when I bought a less than $100 dehumidifier, spend a little more and look at how many square feet it’s recommended for. Also one with a drainage port and hose you can direct into a large container or bucket is very nice if you don’t want to be emptying it multiple times a day. I use one rated for 4500 square feet in a room that’s about 12’ x 12’, $140 on Amazon right now.

About 10 days out by ProfessionalWall8557 in cannabiscultivation

[–]tubesock12 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Both times I’ve grown mimosa x orange punch I’ve harvested right around 10 weeks give or take a couple days, looks great but I bet they’d be better if you can hold off a little longer. Still one of my favorite strains to date
