I confess some paranoia as of late led me to consider moving some masters and cultures out of the house.

Too bad I'm not more efficient, but at least I got all the prints and a master of both a Semp and a Cube out of there on Sunday.
After having my all my cash taken, parts of my house and the grow room together with ongoing grows, plates and cultures trashed altogether, I can't wait to start from scratch with a higher level of competence.

On the bright side, cultivation has replaced my drug and drinking habits, so there's that

Happy times.


(Edit: Probably not the ideal place to post about it but I had to get this off my chest somehow, somewhere)

Seems to have increased my drug habits. Go figure.

Yeah, I hear you!
The only one who knew was my girlfriend (well, ex that is) who's been living with me for over two years now.

Long story short: That was her way of saying goodbye and thank you for keeping a roof over her head after I tried to explain that she has to take accountability for her own actions and behaviour...

I guess that remark wasn't received as I hoped

I confess, I fruited an unlabeled plate and can't tell what species this is (bisporus or mystery sa).

That really sucks, Mwj12977, I'm sorry to hear that.

Nonetheless, congratulations on getting rid of someone who was awful for you. Even if it took a massive betrayal to get to that point.

I hope this isn't too soon, but I confess that I personally don't subscribe to that cloak-and-dagger approach. Weed and homosexuality didn't get legalized by people hiding them. But I live in a jurisdiction where nobody really gives a shit, in a city where people mind their own business, so the only thing I have left to do is avoid sketchy people. I don't want them to know anything about me, anyway.

That to me is the key- if you can't trust anybody, then you need new friends and lovers. If you're hanging out with alcoholic cokeheads who drink and drive, then shit's gonna go down eventually one way or another.

All of my friends and family know about my cultivation work. Because, after all, I've always talked to them about what I'm doing. And, more specifically, what I'm growing. Doesn't matter whether it's mint, tomatoes, weed, or psilocybes.

Ah, ok, my bad Myco/Mwj

Yeah, my dad basically told me about that sort of world and instilled such utter paranoia from his time in the 1960's that I always stayed super small potatoes. But you really hit the nail on the head with the fear of getting robbed. I know people who have gotten away with so much, as long as you don't count the masked gunmen turning up at their mom's house to gank hidden cash and whatnot.

I get the kids thing, though. We went through tremendous stealth procedures just to smoke weed when there were still smal children in the house. Now it's just a couple cats licking up the mushroom scraps, and I'm smoking weed with those same children as adults lol

Crazy new world we live in, that's for sure. I think it took my dad a while to wrap his head around the idea that I'm not just perpetually on the verge of getting locked up. His stories from the olden days make even our paltry civil liberties sound pretty damn good.

And yet still we have casualties.

I confess that I often fantasize about just saying "fuck it" getting "1312" tattoed across my knuckles.

Half the average beat cops in my city would probably love to get ahold of something that gets you high but doesn't show up on urine screens. But, like I said, I don't hang out with alcoholic cokeheads lol
