How’s the girls looking over your way?

The inside one is a puny little runt. lol
Needs more light but don’t have it yet, no biggie.
The big girl, i think she looks good but need other perspectives.
Any comments would be appreciated.
I’m way down in the back, I’d have to have the ol lady do it for me as she has been helping. I can’t do much, lay in bed and hobble out to smoke. Sucks but this is my life. The herb helps me out a ton. Just gotta get better before harvest, she can’t do any of that.
Plus, it’s a little walk to where it’s at, not my strong point right now.
Here’s a pic from this morning.

Damn beautiful i tell ya!
As you have explained your grow situation, putting myself in your shoes, I say they look bad ass.
Yes, i can tell they need more light.
I also understand your paradigm that is dictating your grow.
Again, from what you told me, i say you guys are bad ass.
Our lives dictate our grows. From how much money we have, to where we live on and on it goes.
I have to keep my perspective strait when i see all the growers on line with big plants. It is not the measuring stick we should use to guage ours by.
Your ladies look great to me.! Hell yeah!
I can’t wait to see ya smoke her.

I appreciate the way you put that post. Your perspective is something that is almost gone. This group I’ve not encountered it, great group and people.
Sad but you’re right how some growers will trash my little set up. I had the stuff in the box for 2 years before i could get it up and going.
It’s def not cheap in anyway, if you want it done better that is.
Even if i had beautiful canopies, lights, all that, I’d be tickled and like you, still try to help the little guy.
I appreciate the kind words on her. I can’t wait till she starts budding up.
It’s been around 40ish days since the seedlings popped good, about 38 or so days since they started growing like weeds.
My next set up will still be on a budget but the lighting and tent will all be upgraded. I plugged the light in just to check, about blinded me. Lit up the whole building. I already forgot what kind but it was rated good and saw a few grows with this light.
Plus the tent will be huge compared to the other. It’s a 4x4x72.
I’ll prob only go with 3 or so at a time, i don’t see any problem but, it’s not together yet. We’ll see.
I think if I can succeed this with this light, i can do 3 with better stuff to grow them.
Fingers crossed for the one in the tent for now, will worry about the others after.

To keep the elephants cleared out of the room, i used to be rich. I had all the spit to grow with. And i did.
But life has a away of turning on us at times.
For me, for s space i hit rock bottom and went homeless. It took me a few years to work my way back out of that one. The whole time growing weed, i never stopped.
I couldn’t of took a photo of them and gave it to any one. They would of laughed me out the park. But because i kept growing i never went wittout weed..
As some time has passed now and getting my growing moved back inside.
I have been stuck without any kind of lights. Moving the girls around in the yard to keep them in some kind of sun. Hell they look worse than yours. They are starving for light but it’s the best i can do.
In other words, i am poor, but i don’t let it stop me. Fuckin A. I grow my ass off.
Here check mine out skinny chick she is.

That blows man, at least you’re doing you’re best and trying. That’s what counts.
I’m broke as hell myself, ssdi don’t pay much at all.
I’m doing what i can, i might not have got a big name brand light but i couldn’t. This one says for a 4x4, hope it works. I couldn’t afford to buy it or the tent, i had to use Affirm to get them.
Pay as much as i can a month.
I can’t say I’ve ever known what it’s like to even be middle class income.
Life hits hard like you said, damn near and should have killed me in 2020.
It didn’t, I’m screwed now and doing the best i can with what i have and seems you are too.
Thanks for the compliment but yours looks pretty killer. Lot closer to smoking than mine.

I have saved and waited for two years to buy a light. I wanted to get a good one. I look online and those babies can run very high priced. 1200$ for a 750 hlg. Ao i prepared myself.
So a week ago i was finally ready to buy a light. So i looked around and for a used light.. Hopping to save a buck. Luckly i found a set of 4 lights that where 8 years old. They are hlg though. Used i tell ya
Here is what kind lights i have currently.. Take a look at the plants under them. The are in hapoy frog pottkng soil with no nukes. I have flowered them like this, buds are smaller wjth less light.
But it doesn’t shun me grom growing any.
I veg under these lights. But during flower i take them outside during the day.
The big ones you see here are 8 and 9 weeks veg.

Holy shit! Awesome looking!!!
Way ahead of mine in time and growth. I can’t wait to see the finished product. I bet it’ll turn out awesome.
Yeah, lights can be expensive as hell.
I’ll have to trial and error as no way i can afford a really good name brand. I think i got a good enough one to do what I’m needing. Not gonna grow more than a few so don’t need super high dollar stuff or if i do, I’ll find out the hard way. Seems that’s became a trend…ugh
Maybe after a few grows I’ll have it saved up and take the plunge.
Hows the garden doing pver your way?

Not too bad, i had to go out and adjust some stuff so i could get the light higher. I think that’s the problem.
Pretty sure it burnt the top.
I’ll show last night’s Pic and please let me know.
I did raise the light almost as high as it’ll go. Damn 4 foot high tent. Ugh
I hope it comes back…

Thanks, that means a lot to me. I still have a ton to learn, this group is awesome for help and being nice.
That’s cool you can see the growth. Must be me seeing it fairly often.
I was thinking the top was drooped down from the light?
I’ll check it once i can get some sleep and see if it has perked up any. Plus need to get the cam back up so i can see it from inside.
Thanks for all your help, you’ve been a wealth of info!!!
I’m like a sponge, try to soak all i can in. Bad part is there’s not much room left up there.

Hey, i ain’t a knowing shit about growin.
I have proven over and over, if we do our part and tend the plants. If we do the best of our abilities the plants will do their best. It is the will to survive.
I find for me the biggest thing i do wrlng is ( i do not leave them along,) i look to closely and respond to soon. I have to slow down a little and let the plant talk to me then respond.
I do a little better when i operate like this.
Hey, i have no time for patience. I have to smoke my patience. Liquid patience maybe? Lol. Smoke allot!

That’s very true, they are pretty resilient.
I’m like you, I’m ready for my meds to be ready now.
Dispos are way too damn high but gonna have to go at least once or twice before this one is ready.
Then I’ll have 3 going, those will last a little bit. lol
I ordered some beans from the same place as before and the place my cuz got his.
Was supposed to get 3 of each, was supposed to have been 9 total.
I got 4 white widow
4 Blueberry and 6 Northern Lights.
I won’t complain about 14 and 5 extra.
They are really fast germination also.
I can’t freaking wait for those 3 to start, def will be my next 3 i go with.
Can’t beat that combo at all.
I’m an indica fan, mainly i can’t handle speed at all and indy helps the pain, sleep and eating. Without it, I’d be lost as hell. Only thing really keeping me going. Get stoned and temp forget about all the pain.
Glad my Dr is on board with it, helps i went to school with him. He hooks me up, well, helps manage the pain as best as he can.

I am a wearing some of the same kind of shoes.
No one could stand me if I didn’t smoke. Hell I wouldn’t even be able to stand being around myself.
All that leads me to needing an oz a week. And that has to be top shelf or I’ll use an extra oz.
4oz a month minimum and that needs to be a mix of different kinds of weed, or sugar/wax. Goes further and works better for me like that.
This means if I don’t grow, my broke self will be plucked.
I am kinda in your shoes. Where I have lived for the last three years I have not been able to grow. My weed bill has been killing me.
I finally have moved to a place where I can grow again - legally.
I have my first girls in flower. They are Cindy 99 by bro Grimm. They are 26 days of flower today. The girls in the front there. They have been outside cause I have no lights for flower. Been through hell I tell ya, deers, me screwing them up, mold got on them. But here the are, tough bitches I tell ya. They look bad up close, but they will be alright.

Yeah, def sounds like we’ve both been thru some crap.
I don’t think they look bad, they look pretty awesome to me.
I babied mine and it’s looking a lot better. Raised the light, still looks a bit yellow on the cola but only in the pics. Reflection i guess? Idk.
Damn right! She looks bad ass.
She has such a sexy top on her.

Thank you very much!
It’s not as yellow in person than it looks. Yeah, it did get a bit toasted from the light but that’s fixed and she looks really happy and I think she’ll recover fine, i hope. The rest looks great i think.
There one in the house with a small 3 panel full spectrum light is doing ok, gonna be a tiny one but def is flowering but small. Prob get less than an eighth off it if I’m lucky. Ugh. Damn small tent.
Soon as this wx goes thru I’m gonna start on my new set up. Prob take a while as fast as i move but I’ll get her done eventually. Lol
Thanks for the help!
I can’t wait to get in the bigger tent, i want canopies like you guys. Lol
What kind of new set up do you have planned?
