lol Yeah it's been an adventure from day one. If it's not an angry ex with an emotional problem kicking down my door, it's heat, or cold, or floods, or shitty well water, or any of a HOST of other scourges.
What do we learn from all this? Plan to fail. Plan to fall down, hard. Practice getting back up.
Make every new grow space immune to the problems that you faced in the last one.
Eliminate factors you can't control.
Don't count the chickens before they hatch.
Always have another option; a safe spot to store valuable genetics should the need arise.
Back up your shit.
Put money aside for emergencies- a portable a/c STARTS at $300 for the no-name one, as I just found out. A good can fan will run you $200. First/Last/Security will hit ya for $2k and up, depending on where you live. And your time isn't free, either.
But most of all, don't give up out of frustration.

You know I try to tell my husband alot of this and her just doesn't get it. I swear it's so much harder to grow when your other half doesn't get it or thinks you should be able to forecast your harvest amount 2 months from now. lol.
Personally right now I sell my good tops and smoke the shitty seedy bottoms myself, every one says I have it backwards, but I'm embarrassed to have my shitty stuff seen, or need to explain why the cost is cut.
Oh yeah I need to fill you all in on the Fuck Face and Hermie situation. I need to start a grow log.....

wow...i'm really sorry to hear about your loss stinky. i too suffered a small loss from the heat wave but nothing that compared to the DDs. that was a very shitty 4 days of unnecessary weather and it really put a hurting on my outdoor ladies as well. hopefully those dicks recover and all the time into them isn't totally wasted only for truffles lol

i was really looking forward to seeing those nice huge ladies. i really hope they will recover from all the damage that's been done and that those bastard insects get what they deserve. if ya need help getting rid of the butter i'll take the ride to you lol.

your luck will change and next years crop will flourish beautifully and this grow will only be a disappointing learning experience. shit happens and ya keep going because there's no changing what has already been.

good luck stink

You know I try to tell my husband a lot of this and her just doesn't get it. ..

So do you have a Husband or Wife?

LOL I;m wiped out to!!!!!:jointsmile::jointsmile::jointsmile:

I messed up really really bad.

I sexed 6 plants they came back 50/50. I cut 100 +clones yesterday hacking the shit out of my sexed Sensi NYD. Then I realized today let me just double check the #'s. How the fuck did #3 get put into the VEG room not 6? I really messed up I had to ripp them all out of the EZ and cut 100+ more tonight. I used FEMS this time around CHURCH. Does anyone now how that strain is? I think WH grew some....

Live and Learn and don't be so stoned GL420:jointsmile::jointsmile::jointsmile:

Hey at least I caught it 1 day later and not 2 weeks into Flower.

You guys are NOT going to believe this. NO LOSSES. NONE. ZIP. The plants that looked like olive green dishrags on a stick survived. I lost a couple males, but I had them backed up as cuts at another location.

CC- No one sells on this site but I hear ya. I keep the 'ugly nugs' for myself. Only the pretty ones ever see the light of day. Stinky gotz a reputation to uphold, son! Hahaha. And even if you have to write it on a sticky note and stick it to your other half's forehead... Until your variables are 100% within your control, you canot predict yield. Or even a successful harvest. By variables, I mean water quality, electrical supply, fuel supply if you run a generator, availability of ferts that you need, temperature, everything. Hell, let's all get together and buy a missile silo underground and stockpile a decade's worth of fertilizer and build a surface wind farm and rainwater treatment plant... even then, I'll bet there would be SOMETHING to go wrong.

I remember when your keyboard was broken, lol. That was more entertaining for the peanut gallery than it was for you, I'll bet...

Greenleaf, I'm going to move your question to its own thread.

Shov, you are welcome to stop by any time. I have a few shards of weed kickin' around... lol!

Rhizome... you worry me sometimes. This is because I suspect you're telling the truth, and I'm wondering how you came to that conclusion... I think I would like to be a fly on the wall at the Rhizome REsidence, preferably not one with chewing mouthparts that is subject to squishing for the safety of any nearby houseplants...
