InTheShed Grows Inside & Out: Jump In Any Time

[InTheShed]

For those who don't know what N is referring to, the latest plant post got orphaned here.

Loving those spring time ladies, they are chugging along quite nicely!

Thanks N!


And while we're kinda on the subject of both prizes and mycorrhiza, check out what @DYNOMYCO sent me:

Dynomyco

Not just a bag of the product but a well-designed flat rim baseball cap.



Now if I could only find out how they feel about the Canadian peat and synthetic phosphorus research.

It's me against the aphids again.

What do you typically do to address them?

Granola Funk?
That's an old hippy dude strain name if I've ever heard one.

Lately I've been all about Safer's Insect Killing Spray with "Potassium Salts of Fatty Acids." I spray it on, leave it until it dries, and then wash it off. Kills them dead while it's wet and then I get rid of the residue so it doesn't build on the leaves or buds (if it's in flower).

I haven't heard a word from Cannapot...might be time for a PM!

I used to have infestations outdoors on some of my fancy succulents.
Once you knock them off the plant it's hard for them to recover.
I used to pressure spray them right off the plant with water.

I haven't received my Cannapot seeds either. I'm still missing a few packages.
Lord Vapor and SNS.
I saw that the SNS was on its way.

@InTheShed How its going brother?? GL with your new round of ladies. Man you outside vegging already. Haven't even planted peas yet snow just went away 2 days ago.

Congrats on your Durban harvest. Did you're wife try any freshies yet??

Aphids.... suck the love outta growing they can. I think I finally got em knocked down.

Cant say any one thing worked. Cause none of them worked and I tried everything. I think they hide in the wood work ffs. Come out when the coast is clear.

I did the combo safers stuff you're using and sulfur. Hadda keep at em almost every day.

We gotta keep 'em honest and gets what we deserves!

LOL I'm not sure where to even buy Chinese peat besides China! Canadian is the only option.

One of the nice things about living in Los Angeles is that I get to grow outside (and in) all year! I'm glad to see you can at least see the ground again.

Congrats on your Durban harvest. Did you're wife try any freshies yet??

Funny that you asked! I just ground some bud for her 20 minutes ago, but told her to make it her first smoke of the day rather than her 15th . I hope to have some feedback tomorrow, especially since @Archiweedies mentioned that he found it pretty mild.

The Safer's stuff really seems to take care of them for me, but I do need to spray them every 4-5 days to keep them at bay. They were really eating their way through the Candida before I killed them, and it looks much happier without them.

15th Damn i bet the family can go through some buds !! i average a 1/2 joint a day then bowel of CBD in the morning .

 

[BigD13]

Happy π day everyone.

Speaking of the amazing endocannabinoid system, I just came across this article in the NY Times:

Getting to the Bottom of the Runner’s High (Published 2021)

For years we’ve been crediting endorphins, but it’s really about the endocannabinoids.

www.nytimes.com

Turns out that "runner's high" isn't about endorphins. As they put it in the subhead: "For years we’ve been crediting endorphins, but it’s really about the endocannabinoids."

And in the article:
"Most [volunteers] said yes, they had felt buzzed during the run, but not the walk.... All showed increases, too, in their blood levels of endocannabinoids after running and equivalent changes in their emotional states. Their euphoria after running was greater and their anxiety less, even if their endorphin system had been inactivated."

Hi Shed.

I was telling my sister about this article today and shared it with her. She in turn sent this article to me, which people here may find interesting, too:

The Truth Behind ‘Runner’s High’ and Other Mental Benefits of Running.

 

[InTheShed]

Thanks HG! Same info in both places, but the NY Times article goes further into the studies relating to the discovery.

Amazon Canada has the following options. The first 3 listed show Potassium Salt of Fatty Acids. Which one do you recommend?

I recommend the third from the left, the concentrate. It's basically what I use only in a whiter package because Canada.

Thank you, Shed. I don't currently need it but I wanted to ensure I had the info if I need it.

Do you recommend the concentrate because you prefer mixing it yourself (which I assume is what you do with a concentrate )?

 

[InTheShed]

Yes! It's a lot cheaper and you don't have to worry about running out after a few plants.

 

[HashGirl]

Cool! Thanks, Shed.

Same here. They actually contacted me within 10 days of winning (back on Jan 10th). Congratulating me and telling me I get 22% discount and " a pack of mixed-surprise-seeds". I gave them my address and asked how to use the discount. They then responded with the discount code, but I never heard from them again nor received the surprise pack. I figured it wasn't worth the trouble so never followed up.

 

[InTheShed]

I PM'd them last week and they responded via email today asking me if I wanted to use the 20% discount that came with the prize seeds. I replied that I didn't need any additional seeds at the moment. I'll keep y'all posted!

Cold and raining today, so here's a mini-Monday tent-based update of the Spring grow!

Front view:

Spring grow day 31/29

From L to R I think they are:
TCK3, Red Dragon, TCK2, TCK1, Candida

Modified GDBview®:

Spring grow day 31/29

The Candida is the only one that has been watered again since transplant (it's in a slightly smaller 1g pot and is also the fastest-growing), and it got 3mg MC/gallon and 9ml Stout silica/gallon (~30ppm).

The only plant showing any issues is the Tin Can Kush 2 with GeoFlora:

Tin Can Kush 2 day 31

I'm not too concerned about it yet because the GF has only been watered in once. I'm sure once it dries out and gets another splash the paleness will disappear!

I hope the weekend treated you all well and you're rested and ready for this week. It was a bit crazy at my house because my daughter just got home for a lengthened spring break (she's home a week early and staying a week later), and of course my son procrastinated his multimedia art project until Sunday evening. Some things never change!

On another note, we spent the last 12 months of pandemic re-watching Brooklyn 99 from the beginning while we ate dinner, and finished the season 7 last week. Just prior to that we had watched two Joseph Gordon-Levitt movies: The Night Before and Don Jon (I'll let you figure out which we watched with my son). So what sit-com to watch next?

Third Rock from the Sun! Still funny and ruder than I remember. It's on Amazon Prime if anyone is interested.

If I were 50lbs overweight I could get vaccinated starting today, but alas...

I'll send them an email as well. Sorry to hear that didn't get your stuff.

Did you transplant when the plant was due for the next feeding or did you transplant between feedings?

My GDP went yellow. They were starving because I waited to transplant until I was due to feed again. The Geo take a week+ to be available , I think.

That's what I'm seeing in my own garden anyway. I'm going to go forward transplanting them on odd numbered weeks. Hopefully that will take care of my issues going forward.
