12.24 I can already tell that the 1st gal in that vid is gonna be the 1st one I flip. The last 3 in vid are the purple punch. U can tell cause they got cute ass floppy purple elephant-ear-looking fans. They’re super bushy. I can’t wait to get a purple punch that favors Sativa genes, where she grows pale and gangly. I really love growing these bitches

12.27 Those purple ones suffer when I skip a day of water. All autos die root to tip no matter what ya do, but shit can start turning yellow or crinkly towards the ass end of flower. I figure, why nute when they’re almost done. Trichomes are showing up and bud sites are fattening, but no Amber yet. Note to self: I cannot occasionally water on a 4th day in flower with em cause the purples suffer. They’re just so big and too heavy now. Again, I’m so glad I didn’t max out cause I couldn’t keep up with more than 6.

It’s defoliation time. Ima wait till tomorrow, so I can see what doesn’t recover. I nipped really bad leaves off for airflow, but there’s some questionably limp fans I may have to cut off. Gals need to breathe, but I want fat bud, not fans. Ya can’t “send her to prom” naked, ya know.

12.28 Purple punch doesn’t like to droop from going 4 days instead of 3 to water in their flower stage. I lost a lot of those pretty purple floppy fans by being lazy on Monday. Now I know better.

The wedding cake don’t care if I wait an extra day to water, but it will def slow down growth. Besides water being life, gotta melt the soil feed too. East side growers don’t pay $50 for a $10 bag of dirt, we buy the $10 and amend it ourselves for a few pennies more. Lemme shut up with my bottled water. Ya find ur own niche of bro science and as long as it works, keep doing that, right?!

12.29 Tiffie might be the first plant I flip. She ain’t ready yet, but look at that frost! I wanna flip one when I think they’re all ready and allow them an additional week or so to ripen. I always harvest too early out of fear my soil will spend out and crispy kill my plants in drying.

A lot about learning to grow happens by actually seeing it in person. Runt had nanners all over her, I just ain’t know back then. I ground up the last of her crumbs for a bong last night and she still smelled good and came through for a good ass buzz.

I can’t believe people be throwing away their roaches. That’s basically extra resined weed. I use full tweezers to punch an eraser worth of ash to toss with paper and put the green right back into my grinder. Be humble cause it rains on everybody’s heads. People see ur shoes and say, “What are those?!” Bitch, I don’t walk! I get a new car annually and keep two. U could too, but u got high-top LeBlah James shoes. Signature looking like scribble scrabble, smh!

PS PPA Evie was super droopy, so I watered all of em tonight. Lots of fan fade and defoliation happening as nug sites fatten, but no amber yet. Next water day is Sunday.

12.30 So PPA 2, Stubby got a full blast of 80* from about 4’ away, but I guess the heater ran extra hard cause I kinda decarbed her mid-grow. She’s still too young and ripe to flip, so I nipped and pinched whatever looked crispy or too crinkled to repair. Damn it, I lost 2-3 cola branches. Hey, at least there wasn’t a fire. I guess a have to be more careful with my heater around so much plant and plastic. Is AC Infinity “fireproof?”

Gotta tell u, I helped cater an event on the 50 yard line of the Ravens stadium in I think it was 07, might’ve been 06. The fire marshal said, “Let’s see if the tent is flame-retardant” and held a lighter to the dining tent wall. I started to flip out and everybody laughed.

The community college sent 1st year’s to cater knowing good and well that the state chair holders would pick us off like cheap apples for their goodie bags. When I applied to be ‘hype squad’ for a private agency that did mitzvahs and weddings, I was advised to keep the Raven’s event off my resume because high-profile private events are for escorts. I really liked my professor. I can’t believe she was a pimp!
