Misc Quit MJ after 17 yrs a 1/2 oz a week user. HELP - Page 9

Have any of you guys ever quit and struggled like I am? I know it is what I want to do but I am alienating everyone around me. Man this sucks. I can't seem to control myself. I am not yelling but I am so confused and emotional like a woman right now it is horrible.

I'll grant you that hyroponically grown dope is usually very good. But that is because growers that are sophisticated enough to use hydroponics are also very skilled at growing dope. Shitty seeds yield shitty dope no matter how you grow it.

Your wisdom (and age) is very useful in this discussion Skip. This is very true.

Never heard that one. What would keep the nutrient solution from doing the same leaching? No revenooers, Rainman. I had a greenhouse in the middle of 150 acres. No other houses within a half mile. And they couldn't search even if they highly suspected it. Fourth amendment you know. A buddy of mine said I was "hiding in plain sight".

if they highly suspected, how would the fourth amend. protect you?

I'm not sure how you all can put quitting MJ up there with the likes of cigs and chew. I smoked MJ for 4 years everyday and one day decided to quit. I never had a single day where I "craved" it or felt like I needed it to survive. Cigs and Chew create a chemical dependency in your body, while MJ is not nearly as serious.

Maybe MJ was the only way for you to escape your life or something you didn't like about your life and now you are struggling with it.

I don't mean to seem disrespectful of your issue with quitting MJ, but I don't think it is remotely close to quitting cigs or chew. It doesn't seem to be as serious as you make out to be, because you would turn to true friends if it was, not some randoms on a message board.

However, if it really is bothering you that much, go see a group, although I find it funny that there are support groups for a non-addictive drug

I had a really good setup. A 30'X30' greenhouse with a concrete floor. It had a 4' square hole in the middle of the floor for the nutrient solution tank. I had 20 10' joints of 6" PVC pipe with 2" holes cut every 18". I had a submersible pump that cycled on/off every three minutes. It was fascinating watching the plants choose (on their own) how much nutrient/water to take up. On very hot days, they would take up mostly water and the strength of the solution would go way up. I then added more water 3-4 times per day. On more mild days, they would take more nutrient than water and the strength of the solution went down. Growing is just as much fun as using under those circumstances.

Suspicion isn't enough under our laws. They needed probable cause. Like a witness or catching me selling it. The greenhouse was plastic sheeting stretched over a pole frame and was translucent. Light could get in but you couldn't see through it. Even aerial photos wouldn't have helped them. I also grew some hydroponic tomatoes that I sold to the grocery stores and all the cops in that small town knew it. The county jail bought the prisoners food at one of the stores.

sweet, right under their noses. thats the poop.

Yep and the good part is I learned how to do it from a paperback book I bought in a head shop. The authors really knew their shit. BTW, I used metal halide grow lights to get the cuttings to sprout roots through the rockwool blocks. Then, into the PVC tube. Rinse and repeat. Damn these stupid laws. I could get rich. One good story was my ex's brother had a friend who hounded her till she sold him a small bag. He laughed and told her brother that he outfoxed her and now had our seeds. The joke was on him. We grew sensemilla plants and there were no males. Hence, no seeds.

half O's aren't sold very frequently in my business. an O of some good beasters would be between $240 to $350, depending on your location.
