Arctic Bowl's 1st Ever Attempt At A Grow Journal

Evening to ya :)
We’re getting some colder temps now, saying it’s going to get -35 or so the next couple days but it’s still better than -60 but I don’t much care for these temps. All the heating equipment that has been thinking of breaking is going to the next few days so good for the pocket book but nothing else. Lol if the job normally takes an hour it’s going to take 3 when it gets to these temps or colder.

No action up this way from the earthquake this morning, we’re like 750 miles from where that thing hit, I slept right thru it an knew nothing about it until I heard about it at work :rofl: We don’t really feel to many quakes up this way but have had a few that we felt, they are something when they happen and you do feel them. Kinda get like a slight dizzy feeling when they first start off, if they pick up steam then you know it’s a quake and you can hear them rumbling while things are shaking. The ones that last a few minutes get your attention, ground gets swelling/rolling, trees shaking there ass off.......gets you thinking about just how insignificant you are compared to the power of Mother Nature........just get yourself in a safe area, outdoors get in a clear area, indoors, get in a doorway. Sounds easy right? Well, you know that game where you spin around in a circle with your head on the top of a baseball bat for 10 seconds and then try and walk and not stumble? It’s kinda like that when one gets rockin n rollin good, hard to get your bearings.

Well, time to go visit your gardens and see what you are up to tonight :)

Blessed Buds our friends and be well :passitleft:
 
Morning :)
Well it’s only -23 this morning so not too bad, it’s cold don’t get me wrong but, it’s not -35 like they predicted so we’ll take it. Normally we don’t get any snow when it gets cold but not so much yesterday lmao, snow and ice fog really played hell with the roads here and we had some pretty big accidents for up here that is. 15-20 vehicle accident on the Johansson expressway, even one of the emergency vehicles got hit. Poor visibility and super icy roads is a great recipe for just this type of accident. Lots of 2-4 car pile ups as well. I don’t drive very fast when the roads get like this and most people are passing me but so far, this has worked pretty well for us so I’ll stick with being a little slower than most :)

Hope your day is blessed, time to make the donuts as they say so off to work I go lol. Think I’d rather be making donuts than fixing broke shit :rofl: see ya all tonight.

Well I got a lil surprise when I walked into the grow room this morning, the Malawi that we didn't top decided she was completely exhausted and just couldn't hold up her top buds any longer, I noticed her leaning a lil bit but didn't think she was going to try and super crop herself :rofl: So, I gave her a stake and a red pipe cleaner (lol stole that plan from Duggs a while back lmao, thanks Duggs :) ) so now she is at least kinda standing up.

"This is my Malawi, there are many like it, but this one is mine" :rofl:


Well I guess now I know that these girls don't have enough to keep themselves upright lol, we knew it was coming, just wasn't thinking it would be already.......time to get more stakes cause her sister that did get topped is a pretty big wide girl so she's gonna take several :)

Ok time for me to go cruising your grows and check things out.......see ya soon :high-five:
 
Got a few pics to share from this evening of the girls and some bud shots, they look to be doing pretty good and have some nice frosty Buds on them, even the Malawi is frosting up a bit now so we're hoping they are on the right track. I'm liking the progress of the 11/13 schedule and will probably be dropping the 11 on to 10.5 or even 10 in a few more weeks. Lol stole that 11/13 from Doc an Duggs as well and if I'm not mistaken I think Duggs goes to 10.5 or 10 as well but I'll have to double check that before I go venture off and make a dumb mistake :rofl: anyhow enough of my yapping let's get to the pics lol.

Thanks Shed, I’m liking how they are progressing and frosting up pretty good. I’ll get some shots this weekend when we get the rest of the rollers put under them, that Malawi we topped is really wide so I’d like to get her out by herself for a few pics........and get some stakes in her before she SC herself :rofl:

Evening to ya :)
Took a couple pics tonight, one of the plants we were given aurora Indica is changing colors on her fans pretty much, yellow/reddish. Don’t know a thing about this strain but she seems to be fading fast.

Not sure what to make of it.......maybe just her thing for all I know. I’m going to Brix tomorrow so I’m thinking of adding snake oil to the Brix just to see if that calms her ass down a bit :rofl:

Both Lilly’s fans are getting dark now......almost a black tint to them :) love this Lilly!!! Thanks Duggs ........lol, damn, I sure steal a lot from you brother, hope you don’t get to mad at me though, I can run pretty fast when I’m scared :rofl: You guys need a detour on your way back from the South Island so pop on over, we can use a hand trimming a plant or 10 lmfao. Anyhow here are the Lilly’s
