Yeah, thatâs a deep hole try to dig ourselves out of. I got where I am by starting to work in my fathers garage from before I could read. Not to say that children should be in garages, cause they shouldnât, but I started my career with decade and a half experience more than everyone else my age. And it shows when I work with someone my age who didnât learn the way I did(rarely happens anyway), its like working with a total new guy.

Oh I donât know. Kidâs need to gain interest when they are youngâŚbutno doubt you need to keep an eye on them. In fact, if I could snag a young kid to clean my garage Iâd stick him/ her right in there lol.

Part of the problem is most kids are semi-literate & have poor math skills . Iâd wager most canât read a ruler / tape measure & we aint even gonna get into precise measuring . Children are being indoctrinated not educated . Basic equipment hasnât changed as much as control systems have . If a kid canât read & / or doesnât have math skills even a trade school aint gonna help . Another turd in the punchbowl is work ethic or lack thereof .

Yeah, but I meant a working garage, not the one attached to the house haha. He was self employed, if my mother was working, I went there and âhelpedâ. I learned fractions before I could read from him explaining how wrench sizes worked. Learning stuff like that makes your brain work differently, and approach problems differently. You can tell when someone only has book learning experience until they reach adulthood. Theyâll stand around and look at a problem, and not even realize they could possibly solve it.
Iâm too young to feel this old haha. But seriously, kids these daysâŚ

This is so true, has anyone done a âhow many grows leftâ chart?
Somthing like,
Average grower: potential Sativa grows in a calendar year(12mo) = 2 (3) indoor/ outdoor
So if a person is say 50, and he plans to garden till atleast 70, that gives him 20 years left, 20 x 2 (sativa grows) = 40 possible grows left, give or take.
Gets deeper if you add in, how many plants per grow, then take a good look at the seed stock. How many possible grows in your fridge? 1k plus, sorry my over thinking, took a spin, cheers

ever notice how school amounts to a 6hr shift with a 10 minute break and a 30 minute lunch? Itâs designed to take the most creative, energetic, and open minded human beings in the world, and get them into the cycle of working a day job until theyâre too exhausted to do anything significant (like change this godawful system), sleep, and repeat for the rest of their lives. Works like a charm

I had to take a test to make sure I could read in order to pass high school. Rather than write the test I wrote a short essay on the back on how the test is stupid and if I could make it through high school without reading itâs a you problem not a me problem. I hope this little diatribe proves to you that I can read.
Yes the cycle of being a good quiet tax paying unit

@SkunkHunt101 Itâs cool to see you still running the Silver Haze. Are those from your clones or seed?

Cool yes. Itâs from The Nature Farm he does a 95 SH line he made from his fathers original sensi seed increase. He makes a set every few years. One of my favorite buds. Spicy woodsy insence. Lots of bud lots of stretch in the sun. Really good plant yes I keep one around for show off weed.
Weird dome multi top flat cola.
See my little mystery volunteer in photo 2. The silver haze grows these huge buds you can see. Really special plant. Yea the lil plant. I cut the blueberry down but keeping the little plant going trying to get a seed from it. Ha ha good fun

Love that last picture. Itâs just drawing me in. So is there a trick to growing Haze? Some member was rambling about how its so hard to grow if you donât know what youâre doing youâll mess up the entire grow. Is there any truth to that from your experience brother? I havenât grown a haze yet but theyâre in the line up

I think theyâre easy to grow, but patience is needed because it goes so slow and there is no need to over feed or water. You just have to plan for them to need space for up to 6 months.
I grow them outside and bring the pot in before freeze. Itâs a good way to get bugs in the house, too, so that is tricky. They donât seem to be too bad on sativa though.

Thanks @GMan, that doesnât sound all that bad at all. Iâve got plenty of patience and even some space outside for them.
Yeah, Iâve accidentally brought in some leaf hoppers that did a number on my small mom plants I was trying to keep but lost several to them.
