funny you say that, cause I have been cutting out sugars, soda,coffee,...... anything to do with white flour, etc., etc. I am having some serious health issues right now. that's part of the reason why I stopped smoking the herb. if and when I consume herb again, it's gonna have to be edibles, or at the worst, vaporizing it with my volcano. and yes, cutting out sugars and stuff is very hard. I crave sugars. what makes it worst is the foods that I am allowed to eat, I hate.
Dang Doc, hope everything is alright! Took all the fun out, hope you can still get wet!

Not to chime in late, but yeah, to chime in late. Dr, if I were you, I'd start juicing if you can. Regardless of what you're dealing with, it's one of the best things you can do for yourself. My wife makes us apple, kale, pear, carrot, and some other shit, all mixed together, all organic, everyday. I wouldn't have believed how much it'd help me unless I did it myself (there was even an article in Outside Mag a month or two back about it). It can get expensive if you're not careful, but fuck, you guys all live in the most fertile place on earth. The aina can grow just about anything in your neck of the woods. I bet you could grow your own fruits/veggies if you're not already, and it'd be just as rewarding as growing what we're all here for. Just throwing it out there. That's my shpeal. Stay healthy. shoots :peace:

Juicing. lmfao, that is funny.

There is a good one called the Omego masticating machine or something to that effect that isn't a fancy $2000 machine, but still does the grind/press method (much better than centerfugial). I think it's a more affordable $300. Besta luck :peace: +rep back at'cha

Aloha Medical MJ Patients, Card Holders and Supporters.

Another hearing has been announced, and as it's for next Tuesday, you've got all weekend to work on it....forget the Super Bowl...testify!

Please submit testimony in SUPPORT

SB 58 Relating to Medical Cannabis
Increases patient to caregiver ratio to 4 to 1, increases plants to 10 (and removes mature/immature distinction), increases dry, usable medicine to five ounces, makes grow location confidential and omits it from the card, clarifies that the Department of Public Safety may not require that the qualifying patient's certifying physician be the the patient's primary care physician

WHO: Committee on Public Safety, Government Operations, and Military Affairs
WHAT: SB 58 Relating to Medical Marijuana
WHEN: Tuesday, February 8, 2011 at 3:15pm
WHERE: Conference Room 224

Testimony is due by 4pm Monday February 7

A copy of the bill is at:
http://www.capitol.hawaii.gov/session2011/Bills/SB58_.HTM

and the hearing notice can be found at:
http://capitol.hawaii.gov/session2011/hearingnotices/HEARING_PGM_02-08-11_.HTM

Talking points:

I think this bill will be a faster way to improve the quality of patients' lives. The dispensaries/compassion center bill is important, but it could take years to implement. Increasing the patient-caregiver ratio, plants and dried, usable medicine will have immediate impact.

The law also clarifies that the Department of Public Safety's forms may not require more information that is required by the medical use of marijuana law.

It does allow for a primary caregiver to be "reimbursed for costs associated with assisting registered qualifying patients. Reimbursement shall not include the sale of controlled substances."

Although the law allows for the increase in patient-caregiver ratio, it still has no way for a patient to find a suitable caregiver. Is there a way to match the two?

Removing the "location of marijuana" from the blue card will be a major relief for patients, who have feared the card falling into the wrong hands. The location of the grow will still required on the form from NED.

The increases in plants, medicine and patient-caregiver ratio are all positive...but, share your personal thoughts on the amounts. Be mindful that the police will try hard to say that five ounces is way too much...find examples of why you need more (making butter and baked goods, tincture, concentrates).

I think the law should also require that NED's phone number and a set of procedures for the police to follow be printed on the blue card. That way the police will know what to do when they encounter a patient.

That's what I have for now. Jeanne Ohta will probably have more talking points tomorrow, but I wanted to put this out and give you as much lead time as possible.

I repeat that I think this is a really important bill, and we want to put in a good showing of testimony. I may even fly over to Oahu for this one.

By the way, I usually start my testimony "I am a medical marijuana patient residing on the Big Island." We have the most patients in the state, and we need to let them know in Oahu that even though we cannot attend in person, we are stakeholders and we care about being involved in the process.

Thanks. More to follow.

Saw this on craigslist thought u guys would like a look, probably similar to what hawaiian kind just posted... unfortunately I dont have a say in any of this, I can only hope all the med patients will band together and get these new reforms passed.

Yeah writing a testimony sucks, but think about the future....

I'm happy for you brah. Is this your first grow using HPS? Wasn't your previous grows with LED lights? If it is, you'll notice a big difference in final product. I'm always telling friends who want to jump into growing indoors to look at 600 watt lights & ballasts. I'd only use 1000 watt lights under a professional grow op. If you got four to five thousand watts running, that can get real expensive fast on Big Island. 600 watts is perfect anyway. It's what the europeans grow with in holland, and they aren't doing so bad,right?

Thing is Cru31,with 600 watts, you can get rock hard nugs. That providing you're able to get pretty close to lights. I'm able to keep my girls inches away from my light, and I don't even have an AC. I use a cooltube & light track/mover. I'm able to pull off great stuff in winter time. But I"ve found out that summertime is vacation time for the indoor grower. Humdity a bit of an issue for me. Do I wanna swap out humdity for heat? If you had to have one or the other? On a good day my humidity will hover around 59 to 65%, and temp will be around 75 to 80 degrees. But I'm okay with this. Once heat hits above 82 degrees, I shut down room though. It's just one more reason I have come full circle, and once again have fully embraced outdoor growing!

Like I've told others I've got my shit backwards right now. I got 'Super Lemon Haze' growing indoors, and my Ultra-Cheese growing outdoors. My Ultra-Cheese is to die for!!!! Four of my SLH went into flower on Dec.1. But because medicate daily, first thing in morning, I think I fucked up three of them,.... for a moment. Either I gave them a lethal dose of Nitrogen by accident. Or Spider Mite combined with a "hot mix" of ferts gave three of them "Eagle Claws". The best thing I could do is flush the shit outta them. They are slowly coming around.
