edit: I know not everybody can and i'm not hating on anyone, i'm just saying this is my situation. I realized that when bad things happen to my plants, because i don't sell and its all mine until it goes bad (working on making it last longer using fridge here in our humid environment in hawaii). I love the fact that rain and budrot and butterflys planting stuff into buds, i don't worry about money cause its all for me, no selling. When you don't look at it as money bad kind stuff doesn't phase you cause you just use it yourself.
huh?

Welcome Konagirl- I've found the people in this thread are generally way cooler than some of the trolls on the rest of the site... Look forward to getting to know ya...

Tardis- I've found a great way to keep stuff really fresh (like the day I finished curing) is to freeze it in mason jars. I also use a foodsaver to suck the excess oxygen out and that really helps too. I have a couple jars- some I open less frequently so the product stays fresher, I transfer say a weeks worth into another jar that I don't bother vacuum packing and everything stays awesome. I have some from over a year ago (been rationing it cuz it's so bomb) that really hasn't degraded whatsoever... I don't know if anyone else does this, but I am very happy with the results...
If you wanna go a little less labor intensive- you can toss your baggie in the fridge like you said, but it will dry eventually- if so, I add a small piece of lettuce just for a day and it keeps things nice and moist... Just a small piece of lettuce or else it will get too wet though...

Tardis- You can really use the wind and sun to combat bud rot, I live on a rainy windward side but never get rot even on my d. dicks by rotating them a little every day and don't really even get any bugs due to constant monitoring and physical removal, I've never had PM either. Your evnviroment is different though, but in my experience the key to growing exceptional cannabis is simply to spend a lot of time with your plants. Grow on brother, let me know how your Alphakronik genes turn out.

See... Here's my problem, I'm flying out to Kuai'i next week and what I'm finding out, is that if I want to blaze for the week that I'm there, I'm going to have to fed-ex a quarter to myself. What I hear is that nobody sells to tourists because its way to hard for locals to get in the first place, is that true? It makes sense, I don't sell any of my shit so I'm not really in any position to bitch, but thats a bummer for locals.

For sure man- I was just out there last month in the same predicament- the few friends I have left out there don't toke anymore. Wish we could have a network for when we all travel interisland... Of course it runs some risks, but it sure beats the hell outta getting into some TSA issues...
BTW- There is some good mexican food in Kapaa called Monicos: http://www.mexicanrestaurantkapaa.com/#cid=glbc
Killer mexican food, margaritas and nice people too... We all know how hard that is to come by out here...

konagirl- you're too kind... :D

They should open up one here!.....Shitty Mexican food at best exists on Oahu, if you want to paint a cave with your ass....just eat a Cholo's on the N.S.....but fist stop by Costco and load up on the toilet paper and handy wipes!

You are absolutely right... The mexican food on Oahu is shitty..
I grew up eating Mexican food all the time back in Cali...


Monicos is the best Mex food on the islands hands-down!!!
When I work on Kauai I make sure to always hit up Monicos and Ohana Diner.... Some of my favorite food on the islands......
@Dr. Greenhorn- Any other suggestions for Kauai grindz?
