  • It’s quite satisfying. I grew a very colourful cultivar this time around, and I’m sampling it right now (Blood Diamonds 2.0).

    Once you have things dialed in, environment wise, there is great benefit in being able to choose genetics (be wise to find reputable breeders however, and steer clear of white label seeds as well).
    There are just so many flavours and variations people growing for an illegal market do not have the patience for. I mean I had to push these until 11 weeks in flower until they were ripe enough to chop! Well worth it though, and I recommend anyone in the position to try it to give growing a shot.


  • If you are not in a position to do it properly, it’s not worth doing over just buying weed.

    It’s not just about yield, even if you’re comfortable with a very low yielding harvest, but your quality will suffer and the genetics will not reach their full potential without the right things.

    The CFLs don’t have enough of a broad spectrum to support a lot of good growth, and you’ll end up with low quality results with a low yield. Not to mention any tent is likely to make some noise, from the extraction fan and a fan for circulating air around, and even with an extraction fan for good bud if you’re trimming outside of the tent it WILL stink up your house something fierce.
    Not to mention your parents would get suspicious of the constant visits to your room, as your learning to maintain good VPD etc.

    Airflow being important if you don’t want mold.

    Anyone can grow weed, but it takes some effort to grow good weed. It would be wise to consider this once you have your own place to do so, it’s worth the wait and you can easily pull 3-4+ ounces per plant (in dry weight) under a 200w LED with the right gear, but the CFLs will be weaker and probably net you under an ounce in dry weight.






  • Seems to me that these days, with a lot of issues fragmented in our society, different bands tend to focus on certain issues - although there are some exceptions, yet this is also just based off what I’ve noticed.

    Bob Vylan has been making the rounds, Kendrick Lamar has also been outspoken on some injustices over the years. Lambrini Girls focus on sexism in a rather angry manner. IDLES have some songs regarding frustration with aspects of society, however they’re not as detailed in their messages yet they still provide the energy for them.
    Kneecap have been speaking about the situation in Palestine in a rather political manner, and have great pride for Ireland - they sing mainly in an Irish language, however great energy for the message.

    If you go a bit further you have Bloodywood, an Indian metal/hard rock band focusing on various issues (I think one of their songs talks about punching rapists in the face).

    Just some off the top of my head. They’re out there for sure.

    As someone pointed out, this happens due to the source output being surround sound, which causes this effect when listening with stereo speakers.

    Good news is if the TV or media player doesn’t have a Stereo option, usually there’s an option to force Mono audio which sometimes does the trick. If your speakers are shit enough you can barely tell the difference!


  • You also need to be a bit more socially aware.

    I’ve had many people tell me I’m attractive, yet at the same time I turned down coffee because it was the evening and I was trying to watch my caffeine intake. During my late school years someone sat next to me as I was eating Lucky Charms with chocolate milk, and said she loves chocolate after sex. My reaction? “Oh, I can only imagine! I quite like the combination with the marshmallows, as they absorb some of the taste. You see…”
    Just a couple examples, though honestly it would be nice to have some sort of guidebook on these things. I swear I’ve missed a million and a half opportunities, only to be woken up from my sleep a year later all “MOTHERFUCKER”.
