Nice story, Rusty! Glad to hear you were able to salvage at least one of the babies... but losing good genetics still sucks, especially for a couple that really needs them. In my novel of a mistake up top, I couldn't save a single plant. I can't remember the exact strain I was growing, but it was some kind of Skunk & I ended up losing all the seeds that I had just payed handsomely for. I wish now I would have at least taken some clones, but even then with the amount of Nitrogen those plants were being poisoned by, they probably never would have rooted. Plus, I didn't know anything about cloning at the time. All I got for my efforts was just a big, smelly mess.

And just visiting Vegas is too expensive for me, I couldn't imagine living there! I don't visit major metropolitan areas now unless I absolutely have to. I went to college for four years in Athens, GA., and worked in Atlanta at the time. (About a 2.5 hour drive-time between the two.) Then, after college, I spent a couple of years dividing time working between Pinellas County, FL (next to Tampa) and Miami. I've come to DESPISE cities and their gridlock, vagrants, flaring tempers, bad drivers, etc. For the first time in my life, I'm living out in the sticks. Been here for a few years now, and I'm loving it! Only traffic I ever have to deal with is a random fleet of logging trucks.

Thanks to everyone who's chimed in so far with their stories! :thumbsup:
