I started out working on big trucks and heavy equipment.
It must have been funny as hell watching 18 yr old me wrapping track on a Cat D9, I weigh about 135lb and am about 5.5ft tall. Got out of that after a year or so.
I went to automotive repair because I could work inside and my tools didn’t outweigh me.
I worked on a lot of 8 ball imports.
Those were actually super fun to drive. A little strange to work on but bad.

Well, after mucking with the microscope I have decided to let the autos ride out another week. Truthfully I was planning on chopping sooner for 2 reasons, the first being I want to try out my new sh!t!! and secondly, the photos that are rooming with are getting a bit rowdy. I’ll have to get creative when I flip them. When I started all this and they were all just babies, the inside of the tent seemed massive. Now I have to fight the buggers back in when I open it. This should interesting.

Got lucky yesterday. The storm knocked the power off around 3 pm.
The girls were sleeping, with the “cold” front and it being overcast my house stayed in the mid 70s till around 9 pm when the power was back.
I can run the lights and fans via the generator if need be but not the AC.
I do believe on my next grow I going to try to not have as many plants during the mid July- August horse crap weather.
