JC...are you familiar with the term "I feel like I just stepped on my shadow"?

Well, reading your post is one of the most uncanny things I've ever experienced...I felt as though I was reading my own writing...knowing that I had not written it...right down to getting " Rocky Mountain head waters that collect in Stanley Lake during the spring thaw". (We must live fairly close)

I have a southeasterly exposure so the girls get sun-up until approx. 3PM...they love it...started them first of June on my deck, attempting to avoid foul weather (farming?) just did miss the hail storm that came through late May ...

I use all organic...water weekly/feed every other week...3 Indi and 3 Sati...yield was a bit less than yours...1.75 lbs of dry/ cure...but, Oh my goodness!

Started harvesting and drying on 9/11 and finished around mid October.

Being of "old school", I camouflage with other vegetables and plants...I bend the plant to shorten the height in an attempt of concealment. Otherwise, they could be publicly exposed. This way, not even my neighbors know...

I too am registered and posses a red card...but no way with the test tube babies...feels like paper, bouquets good, taste good, but not much medicine content.

I too have grown in the great Northwest as well as Southern CA...I too am native to CO...3rd generation...I have enjoyed success in those regions of the country...but when it comes right down to it...I am glad to be home!

This is the way I like to grow...there might be a better way, but at least I understand the terminology and don't have to shell out the bucks to try and duplicate the sun.

Hopefully this will serve to underline what JC mentioned in his post.

Wishing all a great harvest on your future grow.

JRC

I wonder what GW pharma/Hortapharm have to have about a US seed company such as this. It appears as though the FDA is likely to approve Sativex by the end of FY2013 for medical use in the US. That means doctors can now prescribe sativex, and patients can then drive to a pharmacy such as walgreens, and buy their legal medicinal "cannabis" from the same people who push morphine, oxycodone, and hydrocodone like it is pez.

Perhaps GW pharma, or their partner in charge of US distribution (in the future), Otsuka Global, will just buy out Centenial seed company and end all of its liabilities and securities as a means to continue their monopoly. These people are the only company in the world allowed to do what they are doing, which is illegal in most countries (both through cannabis prohibition AND securities laws against monopolies). Their lobbyist was the former deputy drug czar under Bush jr, and one of their main partners is Bayer, who is linked at the hip with Monsanto (who owns BlackwaterUSA). Billionaire George Soros, main shareholder of Monsanto, is funding legaization movements, not because he has any moral obligation, but because he stands to gain billions more from the future emerging cannabis market, both industrial and medicinal. THIS is how capitalism works, and it is not a free market.

GW pharma and its sativex garbage, which is just cannabis suspended in liquid, is nothing but a world wide scam that will allow the government to control the medicinal cannabis market, and also any future recreational cannabis market. The reason they won't budge on legalization at the federal level is because the government is wholly owned by industry such as pharma, prison, military contractors, and alcohol/tobacco; these industry stand to gain trillions in dollars from how the federal government chooses to approach cannabis, and it doesn't take a brilliant mind to see that these industries are pulling the governments strings like a puppet.

Is that what we call democracy? Pathetic.

DRIVING OR TRAVELING TO OTHER STATES WITH MEDICAL MARIJUANA
Currently, Colorado’s medical marijuana cards are only recognized as valid in Montana and Rhode Island. In all other states, including other states that have medical marijuana programs such as California, a person in possession of a Colorado medical marijuana card will not get any protections from criminal prosecution. In addition, patients should be cautious if driving between states because there are no protections for patients licensed under Colorado state law while driving through other states.
In addition, there are no protections for medical marijuana patients flying on commercial airplanes. Federal agents can and will seize medical marijuana and arrest the patient attempting to board a plane if they find the patient’s medicine. Moreover, there are no protections for patients flying internationally. Most international airports have drug dogs that can locate medical marijuana in bags.

I'm glad you're not my customer either. TSA says on their website that you can fly with Cannabis if you have mmj card.

Re: Flying with Marijuana

Beautifulcolorado123 — Wed, 11 Jan 2012 18:15:59 -0000

Actually, flying with cannabis is absolutely illegal, registry card or not. Just because they didn't bust you doesn't mean you should be giving incorrect information. I'm sure glad your not my caregiver, blatantly telling the world how you broke the law, giving out false and bad information to patients. Cannabis is not permitted to cross any state line, in an airplane, car, train or in your pocket while your walking across the state border. Period. Furthermore, airports are federally regulated, not state regulated, therefore any state granted affirmative defense can be dismissed. I'm not saying that it wouldn't be nice to be legally allowed to fly with cannabis. We should be able to but that does not change the fact that it still remains illegal.

Please tell me, am I just SOL? I have arthritis and persistent back pain, some of which could be associated with diabetes 2. Two years ago I got a MMJ card in Colorado. My work requires me to headquarter out of state, which means that I can only get back to Colorado 3 to 4 times a year. I am HQ'd in a state with no MMJ law. Do I have any options?

Is it time to start a boycott of Progressive Insurance companies? Without
the $800,000+ of out-of-state money that Peter Lewis (chairman of
Progressive) put into this campaign, it would not have seen the light of
day. The I30 people have gotten almost no money from Colorado locals
for this campaign. Ever wonder why the insurance industry is interested
in marijuana regulation? Could it have anything to do with higher rates
for pot smokers? There WILL be a registry under I30, a registry if you
want to buy at a dispensary and a registry if you want a home grow.
There is no confidentiality requirement in I30. And since it is all
being run through the DOR, who also runs the DMV, wanna bet they have
plans to put a green leaf on your drivers license saying you are a mj
user??

Boycott Progressive Insurance!

aliensarethecuretocancer?-> partly true my friend. Yes, indeed we have those receptors en bladida, but how do you know that we where created as slaves ? Do you really believe that the sumerians wanted gold ? xp for what ? i think we are here for another reason and perhaps it is true! perhaps the aliens actually did leave cannabis with us, but not for that particulair reason, cause why do you need gold when you can do anything with technology? I think weed is a connection between us and the nature ;) and you're only true awaken when you respect yourself, the other beings and the nature where it all came from! I don't know if it's good or bad cannabis, but it's sure a good experience when you use it wisely ;)

Re: Indoor vs. Outdoor Marijuana

JC — Sun, 11 Dec 2011 03:26:20 -0000

I started 6 plants the first of June...3 sativa and 3 indica.

I grew the plants in 5 gal tubs on my deck.

I began harvesting the middle of Sept. and completed harvest in Oct. My total dry/cure yield was a bit over 2 lbs. of prime medicine. Hopefully it will get me through the winter.

I am a MMJ patient that prefers outdoor organically grown medicine. I do not care for "test tube meds"...that is where electric fans take the place of wind and powerful light bulbs attempt to give facsimile to the sun...there is no rain. And to listen to these indoor growers talk...well, it's kind of scary the way they've turned it into seemingly rocket science.

I water my crop with Rocky Mountain head waters that collect in Stanley Lake during the spring thaw...as well as normal rain fall. I use only organic soil and nutes and water once every week...alternating feedings.

The reason I wait until the first of June to begin is that way, I reduce a lot of risk of the early spring torrential rains and hailstorms that will destroy an immature crop in seconds...still, there is no guarantee...but, that's outdoor farming in Colorado. The plants are exposed to the wind, rain, sun, and whatever else happens to be going on weather wise...but the conditions are natural and in the event of survival...they are very productive and of supreme taste and quality.

Over the years, I have grown up in the Northwest and Southern California. All have been, in my experience, great growing regions for varying aspects.

Still, I have to give preference to my native Colorado...being third generation.

Hope that helps with your questions.
