CannaGranny’s Corner a Thread For General BS and Good Will On BudBuilders

As old Lemmy said "never seen someone die on speed it was always heroin".

Idk how I've managed the past couple years...definitely getting old...sciatic nerve on the right leg sucks balls. Then a couple years ago I messed my back up real bad....was pretty much locked in a seated position for comfort....couldn't smoke every cough hurt. Went to a chiropractor and a few docs they told me I got 4 bulging possibly herniated discs.....2 at the top of my spine and 2 at the base. I started doing these stretches they recommended to help the bulging disc's mend, I get flare ups to where I can tell that if I push myself anymore my back is going to lock up again (It's done it numerous times that winter though I was in horrible shape for like 2 months). So I know the feeling of it starting to be enflammed and back off immediately.

I bought a pallet of water softener salt bc I got them for a deal, 1 dollar a bag...so I bought 70. Still got like 20 sitting on my porch because they were messing my back up carrying them downstairs....now I slowly slip the ones on the porch into my softener as needed til they are gone.
Lemmy? Did someone mention Lemmy? 😄

Gotcha. Looking forward to your smoke report on Redbeards.
Remind me! The Rb ones just now have their second set of leaves coming on. I will for sure be able to tell about mid grow, just because of the smell. For about three weeks they reeked and not in a good way. I said if it was not top of the line, I would never grow it again. The smell drove me nuts. Through an air scrubber in the tent, a stand alone scrubber in the room and an air purifier just outside the room..she rode over that like gangbusters. Well, here I am.. popping more of those seeds!
 
I remember you saying that. I may be wrong but I have a feeling that had more to do with logic than CC. I remember seeing their prizes taken off the prize list not long after you won potm. My guess is that somehow logic screwed them over and they pulled their prizes from potm, but logic left their prize there for his own reasons.

I've been researching this Mellow Fellow and this might be a good one. Turns out the mom is Marshmallow OG from Compound Genetics. I'm a big fan of theirs, that is where the Apples and Bananas and also the Grape Gas came from and I've been impressed by both strains. They also bred the Jet Fuel Gelato which is a pretty famous strain and one I would like to try one day.

Got Imperium X seeds coming soon and going to start them next, thinking the Mellow Fellow might be next in line. Lots of time to change my mind or forget about this conversation so who knows? 🤷‍♂️
I want to know about that Grape Gas! I loveeeeee the grape terps and taste. I have one going right now called Oregon Grapes.

You would love the Grape Gas, has a strong grape scent for sure. I grew it out last run but screwed something up and did not get her potential but I know @Loaded Toad is growing it and I think he just harvested. His was doing much better than mine did in the end. I want to grow this one again but too many choices!

I can probably get you a cut, just let me know Ma'am.

Too many choices, should I be a parking lot attendent in Bel Air, or should I be....dancing nancies.

Grape Gas was a keeper for me until I lost it a few weeks ago! Great smell of grape and diarrhea. Small but super frost nugs. Top shelf smoke for sure. If anyone has the Cannarado cut from ImpusliveGrower, I would like to get that back in my garden.

Thats one i was interested in getting for sure. I was supposed to get it from Johnlandy but it just never happened.
And the seeds are outrageously priced or a rebrand so here i sit without it lol. 🤣

So I posted this in my thread but I'm gonna trow it out here too.. for good vibes.

"So I got a call this morning to set up an interview for next Monday. Operator Technician at a local power plant. It should be a pretty pud job minus a few weeks out of the year when they actually run it. The interview will be me and 4 interviewers on Google Meet. It's also the first of 2 interviews. I really hope to land this position because I'm feeling too old too young continuing down this manual labor path. I recently sprained my thumb doing something I've done a thousand times before. 34 would be the perfect age to fall into a cushy postion (I'm imaging Homer Simpson blindly pushing buttons at his desk). Full benefits and a pension. It's also a position that really only opens up when old farts retire from it, so I'm stoked to hit the potential job lottery so young.

I've got a couple Power Plant seeds on deck for when I land this job. Couple freebies from NASC. Huge Coincidence. I've even got plans in the works to cross it with cherry pie down the line. Gotta think big and manifest what you want, amiright?"

Good luck bro, sounds like a pretty good position to get into, hope it all works out for you 👊🏼

Ive got a grape gas keeper in my stable as well, so dank. Grape laffy taffy fuel terps with crazy bag appeal. lots of equal sized arrowhead shaped buds. very quality smoke.
 
Lots of you on the forums interviewing and landing great new jobs! Congrats! Good luck to you @GrumpAzz !
@dragonsflamegenetics , I’ll be hitting you up for the grape 🍇 hookup!
Thank you, my offer has a few contingencies, like finishing school and a background check. Never heard of an offer before a check was done so I don't really know if they already did one or don't plan on doing one. Nothing of this was ever mentioned in the interviews. I've got some stuff 10+ years back and just hoping for the best.. Either it's too far back to matter or they let me fight my case, all the stuff I've done since then, like go back to school, volunteer work, etc...

Just nervous and hoping it works out

Morning all. 👏

Busy week, no data left, but easier to get around with nobody’s able to upload pics. 😝

Easier to catch-up on threads without logging in. Then login and check off emojis.

Drying in the tent seems slower but flipping the table was so much easier. Points to CG for that idea. Little harder to flip on legs but worth the effort.

Here’s hoping for nicer temps and RH for all.

Mornin all Yiz!
Raining and 72* here on the corner this morning. Kind of nice! WTH is everyone?
What are we smoking this morning? I’m enjoying some of Redbeards Runtz Wreck. This stuff actually tastes like candy!
@Zen_seeker btw, niceeeee looking buds! Just make sure you keep the fans moving air.
@TSD , a little worried about you and the wee one.
@Pipecarver you are wayyyyy too quiet!
 
Runtz wreck aye....wonder if it's trainwreck or daywrecker in there?

Glad it has a good taste I usually stay away from anything wreck bc of trainwrecks taste, shit usually dominates...then u got daywrecker and I may just be missing out when shit has wreck in the name and I pass on it....bc I love the daywrecker

Weird weather we are having here...is this that El Nino shit yall spoke about?
 
Good morning my agricultural acquaintances, I hope you're all doing well this fine Wednesday morning.
Smoking Tangieland, a sativa that is really lemony and keeps my mind and body moving, but not at a running pace, just active enough to be fun.

My GF is heading west from the foothills to spend the day and night here in the bay area.

Plants are in weeks 3 and 4 here and in the foothills, plus one outdoor plant that still seems like it's in week1, for the second week.
It's got a million bud sites with pistils, but it's not starting to stretch or stack buds yet.
I think the warm weather is giving her signals to keep vegging even though maturity is showing through all the budsites.

I'll be interested as to when a bud actually shows up. Here in the bay area outdoor plants would have had full on buds building by 7/31.

I wish you all peace, quiet and happy plants!

Hey, good morning all. Yes I've a new / refurbished computer and I'm having trouble with my wireless keyboard not working with my new comp......I've not spent enough time diagnosing the issue and for now I have to stand and type when I'm on that desktop with a wired keyboard nowhere close to where I need it.....

We've had some shit weather again and the same in the future no sunshine for us this year.......My son is over and I wanted to get some yard work done but too wet for that now........

I'm going to make a tincture...Green Dragon.....for gummies...I hear its a stronger ingredient than coco nut ot MCT infused oil.....I know knott Utube and you guys...I bought a small rice cooker $4.99 - 30% seniors discount...lol.....We're going to try any ways...1691593175108.png

It’s Trainwreck. This literally tastes like the candy, Runtz.
El Nino in the past has brought unending days of super hot heat. Weirdest El Niño I have ever seen! Must be..global warming 😂

It'll take longer to dry with the main stem still attached.

Glad to know you’re just having a minor glitch with your comp.
I have a quart left of the green dragon tincture. It seems to be some super stout stuff. I’ve shared it with three cancer patients whom was using it, mere drops under the tongue. It seemed to really help out on their pain levels and sleeplessness. It also seemed safe to use it with all of the typical pain meds. All three are gone now, my Sister included but it did help. I have never used a drop of it, and tend to keep it for those that might need it.

Does your wireless keyboard use Bluetooth? Possible you don't have a Bluetooth receiver on PC. if that's the case you can get one for $5-10

Such a beautiful day here in the valley!! Got some surprise loving last night too..

@CannaGranny have you heard from @Shaded yet??

Nope, not a word. Really worries me. He has been missing for over three weeks now. Not like him at all.

I have an odd feeling that in about 2 to 3 months, I'll be posting similar weather outlooks. Might have different numbers, but similar, dark, dank and damp!

I hope things look up for you soon in the sky light department!
