im like you ISM big hart ,, i get screwed alot

"No big deal", really is that what we think?  How about the RI crew has been WAY to fucking busy to worry about pictures. One crew member just spent the last week with you, the other crew member is with his family, and that leaves me. So it's been a one man army for the last week. I haven't seen my daughter in 3 fucking days because I have been out in those god damn woods every day after work untill dark standing the girls back up, stakeing the barrels all down, fixing blown over fence, spraying for mold, feeding, and makeing sure that all the heavy branches are tied up so that they don't snap off. All of this done in the nonstop rain and HEAVY winds that we have had all week. I'm not bitching about having to do all of this because honestly I enjoy being out there but I'm just letting everyone know the REAL reason why the pictures haven't been posted yet. I just didn't think anyone wanted an update of the girls laying down and all folded over because the rain made them to heavy to withstand the wind and to heavy to hold themselves up. I mean really how many of you would wanna see that? AND NONE OF THIS IS MENT WITH ANY DISRESPECT TO ANYONE but I just don't take kindly to people running their mouths and talking shit, never have and never will. I kept my mouth shut last time as a favor but fuck that I will not bow down just because someone can't handle it. Sorry but I don't always do as I'm told. Oh and seeing how today is the first nice sunny day we have had all week I WAS gonna spend a quick 30 minutes after work today to take some pics for an update to keep everyone happy because as much as you enjoy looking at the pictures, we enjoy reading all your comments about what a great job we have been doing. Atleast up untill now I guess. I hope you all enjoy the rest of your day and again I appologize for the lack of an update.     

Not sure whats going on here, all I know is trust no one. Sorry to hear you are getting grief ISM. I have a lot of respect for you guys....please continue dude. there are bad apples.....there always will be, fuck'em....do your thing man.

Ok: I wasn't trying to start a shit storm, ISM you know I got ya back.. if there are issues when growin, send a shout out. We all have run into the plant splitting down the middle from the weight and being topped to small.. Rain loaded up the budz and the weight split the plant. branches snapped off from the weight of wet bud, trying to dry the plants out so ya bud don't rot, killin bugs off the plants, etc. etc. etc. I know the RI crew has a lot to do to keep that many plants going. healthy, fed, watered, and generally looked after. I think a simple "busy will get them up as soon as possible, but here is where I am" would let everyone know things is happenin...

Like I said when I said I wanted to see some pics.. Those ladies must be monsters by now.. Mine are gettin huge and they are laid down flat.. Growin these strains verticle they gonna be real trees..

Please no infighting, we are all doin the same thing and no one was tryin to stomp on anyone else..

Like TBR said on his thread ISM your strains ROCK!!!!!

wiz let me tell what iv'e been dealing with for 3 months ive been bitching about fencing ,water stakes strings for branches and all the prep work needed to not have problems and they have not done anything except do what they want and totaly ignore me and momma on very real things that need to be done!! so we both feel like we realy fucked up giving them that many plants for nothing. live and learn but we're done with them permanetly we'll take our looses but keep our pride and respect, thats all now back to growing hahaha ism

the great ISM is back on track HOORAY, that how u strut it!

Wizard I'm sorry if you took any of that the wrong way but none of it was an attack and none of it was directed towards you. That's fine that you asked for pictures, but that wasn't the problem. The problem is when people (not you)  start bad mouthing other people and making them look like assholes for no reason. If someone wants to talk shit and make me look bad then go for it and take your best shot because I'm just gonna laugh and walk away but you DO NOT talk shit about my blood and make them look bad infront of other people. That's why I went off yesterday because I was just a little pissed off by the things that were said by a certain someone. 
              Oh and ISM to address the coment you made about us ignoring what you have been telling us to do let me say this,  that's very funny because when you came down here at the begining of the season to see our spot and to check on things, you told us right out that "everyone has their own method of growing, I do it this way but this grow is for you guys so you can do it your own way" 
             And once again this is not ment to disrespect anyone, we are very greatful for the oppertunity that we have been givin but I just can't stand it when people start talking shit about the ones that are close to me.    

I agree with TBR and GW.. your strains rock man!!! I hope I never have to grow out anything else. Can't wait until you get a store up bud I will be ordering from you until the end of my days!

best of luck to everyone involved especially the plant donor and situations like this reemphasize that growing alone is of the utmost importance

GuerillaGrower, You are a newbie to this site, ISM has been on here for years. Also, ISM has donated his genetics to almost everyone on this thread and they have grown his strains and are impressed. You are an unknown quantity, ISM is a known quantity. That is the facts, I'm not upset, and usually don't take things the wrong way. After all this is just a group of growers sharing their methods, pictures, problems, and experiemce to those who also grow. We understand everyone grows their own way and do things differnt. Like Weedmen said due to the different situations we have; we are "Ninja growers" some grow in swamps, some grow in cabinets in their garage, some grow in the mountains and some grow in their backyard. Your grow is very impressive, ISM's strains are ledgend on this site. Myself; If the breeder said ya need to hang wire, string, cable, rubberbands, newspaper, toilet paper or what ever to help ya do it right I would jump on the advise and do it, then try to understand why the breeder said what he said.. I do understand there are times when ya have to do things the way ya do them due to not enough hands, more to do than ya can physically get done, weather, bugs, etc. Most issues that arise like this one are due to a lack of communication. I know it's hard to communicate when ya are in the forest tending the crop all day. When we become overwhelmed, tired, and frustrated we act out against those close to us. Maybe someone said something you don't like, and being tired, frustrated, and overwhelmed, makes ya feel unappreciated. Maybe the breeder has been where you are and that is why he told ya to hang string, toilet paper, rubberbands or whatever he told ya. You admitted thay you had to prop up the plants that were blown down and drenched with rain. Maybe if the wire or string was in place prior to the storm ya could have stayed in ya warm house and tended the garden when the storm was over. I know the way I grow most people don't understand, some have even told me I'm stupid for growing the way I do. But understand this; there is a method to my madness. I understand my way isn't for everyone. but those who try it themselves and ask the questions. and most important make the suggestions when suggested however wierd they sound are greatly appreciated with the end results. Those who have not made the changes suggested half way through will say my way sucks. and their yeild shows it. I also know my limits, I'm growin under 30 plants and that takes a major amount of time for me. I couldn't even imagine 100+ plants.

Good luck to you on ya harvest this year. I hope this provides an understanding for you and maybe next time the communication can improve.
