Good luck! Take care of your babies
Its an adrenaline rush for sure! At GNCC races my class (Vet B) would be on the course with the Proās. I got my 2.2 seconds of fame once on RacerTV when I was being lapped by proās at Unadilla, I was between the 2nd and 3rd place pros, right when we all passed a cameraman. That was pretty cool.
At another race in Eagleswood, NJ, I held off the #1 pro (Chris Borich) for the last 300 yards of the race to the finish line (etiquette is to let faster higher class racers pass if they rev limit you). I knew who was behind me, I knew he had the white flag, and if he crossed before me, it would trigger the checkers. If I crossed before him, I would get 1 more lap on all my class. I was a dick not letting him pass, but I sure had fun on my āparade lapā without having to worry about any racers behind meā¦
LOL, thatās awesome man. I sure like to kick those things be it boat, car, atv or jet ski but never been on one of those race machines. Did pull off a 3/4 flip on my Kawi 750 ski but as I say, 3/4, lol.
Seriously
XC is a fun machine, because its not so much about the motor / power, as it is about suspension, and reliability. I spent more on shocks, steering stem, steering stabilizer, flex bars and beadlock rims than I did on my motor. In fact, only āmotorā work I did was airbox / jets / exhaust, and a Rekluse slipper clutch.
The YFZ is a fun machine for sure, light, can toss it, but has the power to pullā¦
Ok, well how about one more just for shits and giggles. Letās see what we got. Let me just roll a joint.
I love these seed giveaways. Enjoy your joint @DougDawson and youāre super nice @smokenhike
Hope you guys have a great night.
I would love to do a desert race, Baja 250 / 500 / 1000, or any of the SCORE races, but I think age is catching up to me and that will never happen. Iāve read about those races / their pit setups, and thats insane! In XC at least I do laps on a 9-12 mile course, and I can pit at my trailer on each lap if I want. Desert is point to point, and 250 miles on a quad is several pitstops. Crazy organization to pull that offā¦
Ok so I will offer up Black Snow. Black Snow (black triangle x solo stash) [Bodhi Seeds x Bodhi Seeds] next. Be back shortly.
Soā¦
Doesnāt it suck whenā¦
You have just a few bowls of weed left. Youāre a few days away from cutting the first plants youāve grown in a decade, and ya just donāt really wanna call your guy āone last timeā but ya donāt wanna jump the gun and rush your ladiesā¦
Yeah thats me right now LOL
On the bright side youāve already taken steps to correct this issue.
I figure once I can up my yields to about 3-6lbs per harvest, Iāll never have to call anyone again.
Lmao, Iāve been growing every minute of the last decade and I still ran into this problem last week! all good now though as product hit the jars for cure yesterday
Either make the call, or take a few days off to build up the anticipation for YOUR flower!!!
Donāt blow it cutting early!
I got a few different black stains but no black snow .
Once I pull these plants, that will never happen again. Its all personal here, so they will get me thru the next 6 months I guestimate. By then I should have a few generations of autos done with playing with genetics, and be givin shit awayā¦
But for the next two weeksā¦ I think I gotta do the right thing. Gonna call my guy tomorrowā¦
LOL
I thought of that, but the beauty of it is, what I have grown, I have no doubt will destroy what he hasā¦ My tolerance is high, but this will be a nice change. Plusā¦ 2 weeks without, and my ADD / ADHD will go friggen haywireā¦ no thanksā¦
Having grown in the past I learned one thingā¦ Instant gratification never worksā¦ Dry and cure it properā¦ I took the last two months getting them here, why fuck up the finish?
Finish is the most important part IMHO!
Iāve gotten pretty scientific about it this time, well, probably because technology allows it.
I bought one of those microscopes you can use with your phone. And I regularly inspect the trichs. Right now I am like 90% cloudy, 5% clear, and 5% turning amber. Holding out just a few more days to see those clear disappearā¦
If this was me 10 years ago? That shit woulda be pulled last week. LOL
And usually one of the hardest tests of patienceā¦ that is hard for me and mostly everyone else!!
I love my phone microscope! I like my weed a little buzzier, so I usually chop at 5% amber, unless Iām growing kush, than I wait for a bit more amber to get that real kush couch lock stone
But its SOOO worth itā¦
And you canāt tell that to a new growerā¦ They just wont hear itā¦ Sadly, its one of those things you have to experience to understandā¦
