2d ago
Marijuanaut Starting this one by sending a BIG UP to @Fast_Buds for the seeds won last year on the weekly giveaway on X. πŸ™Œ Psyched for finally having some fast beans on my indoor setup after some great experiences outdoor on my guerrilla years. 😎 Around 10 hours on a cup of water, transferred after into a paper towel on a glass container inside a shoe box with a heat mat that I had bought previously for trying mushroom growing kits. πŸ˜‰ Planted in soil around 2 days later after germination. It all seemed perfect... but it was just the calm before the storm πŸ˜”

Marijuanaut The week that all went to hell 😟 In comes Storm Kristin, an exceptionally intense, rapidly intensifying low-pressure system (explosive cyclogenesis or "weather bomb") that struck Portugal, in the early hours of January 28. It was characterized by a rare "sting jet" phenomenon that produced winds exceeding 200 km/h. 😱 All good with me/family and only minor material damages around the house... but the devastation surrounding us is heartbreaking! πŸ˜” I got lucky... 48 hours without power or water! More than a week later and there are still people in isolated towns without power or water and damaged roofs while raining inside the house... and some dying while trying to fix them! Last weekend we already had Storm Leonardo, with heavy rains and tonight is arriving Storm Marta with more strong winds πŸ˜… Fam.. itΒ΄s been that crazy and we are all struggling in some way! πŸ˜ͺ Needless to say but my ladies were neglected while I cleaned and cleared debris... 2 days inside the tent in the dark, coming out only for a day for some natural light until the power was restored and operations resumed. πŸ˜… Now that the damage is done, the only thing to do is to plough through! ✊

@laxx, thanks brooskie! These will be known as the post depression Kristin diaries πŸ˜… I was hit with a nasty storm/tornado event last week, that registered 200+ kms winds and left me without power or water for around 3 days... all good and very few material damages on my end but we are all struggling around here! Much love

@Marijuanaut, daaaamn! I hope everyone is well and safe! Hopefully everyone has a warm roof over themselves. We don’t really have events like that so I can only imagine the stress you must have gone through.
