Everyone has been too kind here.....the love is so great on this forum. 
Well first chemo treatment was yesterday.....nothing exciting to report except my doctors office is great and I feel very comfortable and in good, knowledgable hands there.
Since was time of such essance we pretty much wandered through the diagnosis etc in a daze so we are only now (having already started treatment) and getting to the exact type and characteristics of my particular type of lung cancer.
Apparently my type......small cell lung cancer......is caused almost EXCLUSIVELY by smoking and according to my cancer books marijuana can also cause the same kind of damage when smoked on a consistent basis.
Guys.....go with your cookie, capsules, tinctures and vapes......try to avoid actually inhaling the harsh smoke directly into your lungs if possible.
There are SO MANY great ways to enjoy ganja......lose the smoking and look around for some satisfactory alternatives....

Wow. It's weird, even before you posted the news I've been thinking more and more that I need to get back to using my vaporizer. At the very least, I'm going to try to avoid pipe and doobie smoking (doobie not in spell checker). I see more small travel bongs in the future, and maybe a small travel vaporizer. And cookies, and, man I gotta try again on those capsules. hmmm, fall harvest soon. And yes we all love you, but I don't think we've been too kind. You are an easy person to love, and you have helped so many of us over the years. You can't help but get anything but love from all us fellow stoners... dumping pipes into trash...

Alternatives to Smoking the Herb
I have to say that I have been feeling better about myself since making cannabutter, cookies, brownies, and capsules. I bought a used VaporBox off ebay last month and I recommend everyone to vape rather than smoke for the obvious health reasons. I am going to embark on making tinctures next in my journey to consume cannabis in the most healthy ways possible.
BTW, I am now in Phoenix where I have been working for the last 3 weeks. If you need ANYTHING, just ask, as I will be back in Cali for the Labor Day weekend. I hear that cannabutter is good for cooking just about any type of food and helps appetite as well.

Yes tinctures. I've dabbled. Very nice even with trim and crap. Did you know some take weed tinctures in the eyes? Mine have been low strength, but when done properly you're supposed to be able to put a drop or two under your tongue for an amazing trip.

WH, I've seen two people beat cancer when their doctors had given them their last rights. Both times, I attributed the win to positive attitude and beliefs. I know that must be easier said than done during this tough time, and I know I don't know you very well; but, I have eyes, and I see all of the love pouring toward you from this board, and I am sure from those lucky people who know and love you in your day to day life. My interaction with you has always been positive, which taken along with the love river flowing in your direction, I know you will knock the shite out of this (C)rap.
You and your family are certainly in my thoughts and prayers! Once you've gotten over the initial shock and all other crazy emotions you must have been experiencing, I know you will get back on your legs of positivity! You are a great woman, and I count myself lucky to know you in even the limited way I do through this great board.
Take good care, great lady! You are much loved! And, you will win this fight!

Hey Everyone,
First let me say to Luna, Rocky and Jake....thanks for stopping by and giving us some up posts!! Jake....deep stuff....thanks.
Got a few things to report. First week of chemo was interesting, easy AND TOUGH all at the same time.
We've already met several folks, who like we are being told by the folks here, ignore the numbers, prognoses, etc etc and forge a good life for themselves. Those people also have given us hope.
Obviously our growing has been on the back burner but I now have two weeks off from the chemo so we intend to straighten out and update the garden during this time.

Update
Cant remember the order of the photos but here's MK and Brainstorm these days. They are both MONSTROUS (sp?) and seem to be quite happy on 1550 solution. I'll try to see if I can get a pic of them from the side......they are as deep as they are large.
I can't remember if we mentioned it but we harvested both the cotton candy and the ASH the weekend before I started chemo most because of the time factor etc..... Both plants were completely cloudy with just a few ambers so we would have preferred to let them go a bit longer but it just wouldn't work with our new schedule.
The cotton candy gave us 114 gms total and Strawberry haze came to 72 gms when all was said and done. I made some cookies for Mr Hound with the CC and they seem to knock him out good so we're guessing they're strong enough.
The ASH was a BEAR to harvest and trim. The leaves didn't want to break off and the thin stems would bend and break often so that's another PITA for sativas.......BUT..... for her buzz so we have to agree with MVP....they're WORTH it.

WH, now that was a quick bounce back to your legs of positivity! I knew that crap couldn't keep you down long, but dang you're fast! And, I know it doesn't hurt to have all of those fantastic ladies around you, especially when harvest time rolls around, which is perpetual in your household, eh? Harvesting all that fine bud, you can't help but stay positive and keep a smile on your face!
Glad to see you on the board again! Your posts always bring a smile to my face, so I know all of the happiness you send out finds its way back to you 1,000s of times over - good karma. Keep on smilin', great lady!

Hey WH, I've got a CC going too. Haven't sexed her yet, but I was wondering what your thoughts were on that particular variety.

Hey Op....
That cotton candy is a real favorite. It's a pretty up buzz, the kind that will have you doing a puzzle for HOURS or really getting into what you are doing. I personally don't find it to be that much of a body stone but seems to work pretty well for Mr Hound's insomnia although it takes a whole cookie as compared to a big half of something like white rhino or something.
If that CC you have came via stork from the south it's a girl....

TEST Launch-Operation Redwood Tree
Hi WH's; Have followed thread from day one and am enjoying your share and am learning a lot from you!
Don't know if I mentioned a 'port a cath'. A little device implanted under skin with a local that takes all the time and trouble of starting an IV every time away! It is useful, for many things.
I know many people (personally) that have kicked this and not one that did not! One, 20 years down the road and still smokin!
Again, thanks for sharing your grow and the learning. I appreciate your sharing.
Your attitude and support alone will cure this one! You cure your plants well, I am sure you will do the same for yourself! My heart is out there for you! pr
and our prayer circle!

Thank you pain.....I tried to rep you for your kind thoughts but apparently I did recently and have to wait until I've "spread some around" before I can rep you again.
The plants are approaching the golden day.....they are at day 49 today. Absolutely AMAZING what a difference of approximately 200ppms of nutes will do......I feel sure Fang 2 will bless us with at least 10 oz. She actually appears triple the size of Fang 1 but you certainly didn't hear that from me.
MK looks pretty substancial as well....but has a fair amount of burned sugar leaves on her outside buds (bleaching from the the lighting.) Any thoughts from people on whether that would affect her future "eye appeal?" Should we trim yellow leaves shorter than normal or does it matter once the plant has been trimmed and dried?

If possible I try to get out any yellow leaves as soon as they are dried up enough to easily remove. If you leave them in they are a pain in the ass when you manicure, unless you don't mind bits of yellow or brown non-resinous leaves in your buds.
