Yes kingfish, you are so far "The Senior" reporting by 6 months and a week, lol. Years ago my favorite sci fi author Robert Heinlein had a story series about a group of very long lived folk the eldest of which was referred to as Senior. You get to hold the temporary title until we hear from the Hippie Chick, lol! Maybe we should pester Catfish22 to bring her on as a guest and if we can get her to join, you can pass the baton. Until then you have the conn sir!
 
My old lady is like three weeks shy of being a year older than me so we have a running joke that she's my OLD lady except for the three weeks every year that we're the same age 😆
 
What I've learn as an older generation is preservation.... Heck since growing for 50 years... the word "ration" never pass through my mind.
 
Also your perspective is way too American. Not only assuming the government is after you (in most countries it’s not) and always thinking in violent terms. That’s why the world think of Americans as “savage” and not civilized. The fact that you are always willing to kill is a symptom of a very sick society. I hope you all my American friends can open your mind and heart. And realize there is dialog and a sense of stability is society inherent from the value of human life. It’s a shame that a plant can deny someones liberty. But it’s way more shameful to take a life. No matter the circumstance. Just think about it. You’ll call third world countries uncivilized but in fact it’s your country who lacks civilization
 
@9fingerleafs....Ah my very young and good but I'm afraid to say somewhat naive friend. Now you've torn it, but I don't want to take this discussion to far in this forum as this is not the place to do so. I will say that i am an American who loves his country but do not like the direction my government is heading in this age. In 1966 they trained me to be a killer and put a rifle in my hands to go and kill a little yellow man I knew nothing about but what I was told and that turned out to be a complete falsehood and a fiasco at the expense of 50,000 young American lives and hundreds of thousands of Vietnamese. Am I proud of that? Hell no !!! Would I defend my country again if it is threatened? Hell yes! Will I defend my home and life against my government if I feel threatened by it? Again Hell yes! As for any government I say trust but verify. So who should I trust when there is nothing but deceit from any source you can name. You say I am uncivilized for believing I should stand up and defend myself if I feel threatened, I say it is my God given right to do so. This country was formed on the unalienable right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. If you think I am a savage, don't try to take those rights away or you will find that I can be. If these words offend then so be it. I feel bad for you if you don't understand. This concept goes far beyond the legalities of growing a plant, it is about basic human rights and standing up to anyone who would deprive me or anyone of them.
 
Well well kingfish, you are off the hook, lol! @EliotPryor just stepped up. I figured there might be a few more of us out there. No vote tho???

I know exactly what you mean @EliotPryor. Often when someone asks my age, I tell them 'I'm older than dirt'. Sorry 'Senior', I didn't see your name on the poll listing so assumed you did not. Funny, now that others have spoke up, I kind of miss being eldest. It's sometimes true 'you don't know what you got till it's gone', lol!
 
You're on it kingfish, the term 'Whipper Snapper' originated in the 17th century derived from 'whipsnapper' meaning 'expressing noise and unimportance'. Had to google it out of curiosity.
 
This reminds me of this time I smoked some just pure bliss weed I got it from a friend who was a street dealer he was the kind of friend who took care of his friends I never payed but I also never asked for seconds didn’t want to be rude however this was so good I asked him if he could get an 1/8 for me I would pay also what was it I smoked he looks at me for a good 20 secs and says I can’t remember he said he was out anyways we decide to go to a higher up dealer my friends supplier to get more assuming the guy knew what he’d sold previously we get there and I have a nearly identical experience as with my friend he can’t remember we start laughing I honestly don’t think they were messing with me I know my friend wasn’t to this day I don’t know what I smoked but it was the best weed I’ve smoked ever spoke to my friend recently about this though and he said he bought a lot of fruity pebbles back in the day and fruity pebbles is one of my favorite strains so likelihood is high but I’ll never know for sure
 
Thank you, I really appreciate your kind words. I'm slowly regaining my strength I, just need to learn to take it easy as I have been pushing myself a bit hard since I have been out of hospital. But after being stuck in hospital for so long, there was so many things I had to get done and wanted to do. So sorry to hear about your heart attack and surgery. But so glad you are still here to chat and help out us more inexperienced growers, it is greatly appreciated. I have also had to change my diet, and have started using the epi trainer every second day. Which isn't a bad thing for me, after covid19 lock downs and being in hospital for months at a time, I was pretty unfit and needed to lose some weight haha. Will definitely keep pushing forward..and growing of course lol. Thank you again.
