I think I'm going to go ahead and call APL. Thanks everyone for all the support over the past year! I hope to see all of you over at the APL to BSL thread soon! I will be there for a looooooong time because I am micro trimming my way to BSL. Happy Growing everyone!

Thanks Bat! That's a good idea! I keep thinking of that and then forgetting it. But it would be a worthwhile investment I think.

Aww, thank you and wow, so many congratulations! I'll miss you here but hope to join you at APL to MBL eventually. Then I'll do the microtrimming thing along with you since my ultimate goal isn't long but rather medium with a good hemline.

Oh thank you so much for saying/seeing that the thickness is traveling. It's my biggest fear trying all this effort, now 14 months and counting, to grow only to prove (as always) that my ends are stringy messes. But if I keep steadfast and grow to APL, then microtrim my way to MBL, I'll have what I've wanted my whole adult life :)

I will be trimming in 2022 but it doesn’t bother me to cut off one big chop at once.

Thanks! It will be nice to have a microtrimming buddy!:hifive: I look forward to seeing you over there!

Yes so true, I think that is why I haven't done it yet.

Quick 2-month update

I trimmed 0.5 inches 2 months ago, so there is little progress this time. I hope to not trim again until April.

The difference is in the neater hemline. Makes me looking forward to my own trim later this month.
