Yikes what happened you just reminded me to hunt down a gofer plant to plant on the end to make sure no gofer will eat my plant my neighbor down the alley gets them bad. I also put egg shells in my plants before I put them in the ground.

It was the plant that got stolen last year. They did leave the stalk & 6 oz of under ripe bud
got some pics in my media

Super excited my little plants has sprouted out of the soil I put them in. Just kinda mad at the weather rain for two days once it passes I’m able to put them out in my cage for the natural sun so they can take off growing.

I’m having a hard time on my journal not sure if I post everyday or half the time what to say I’m not really a people person.

You're doing a great job so far. I can't wait to see these monsters come to life.

41 out of 43 ended up sprouting my beautiful beauties are soaking up in the sun. I put them out at 9:30am so far they are loving it I didn’t water them because the soil still looks moist and don’t want to risk the over watering. I still have other seeds that haven’t sprouted in my cabinet late bloomers for those guys. My cage is coming along got the inside cleaned up not sure how I’ll be putting my plants so far good sun until Friday more rain. It will give me time to clean my pots up have them ready to transplant when my plants get enough roots. I know I’m planning ahead of time which I have to because I’m the only one taking care of my plants it’s sure a full time job on top of doing house work along with cleaning and taking care of animals. In order for me to enjoy myself I turned to growing marijuana some thing about it makes me happy. I don’t smoke it just have a passion to care for it. Maybe one day I’ll try it until then this farmer will do the best it can to take care of and especially protecting it.

Great looking space. I'm not a good people person either. I can get my way through conversations but typically I rub people the wrong way one way or another. I enjoy getting lost in my garden. I'm looking forward to watching your plants. I'm west from you on the central coast. I'll be planting some in the ground this year and it will be my first time trying that! Blessings

My cat enjoys the sun and watching my plants grow he don’t eat the leaves. My other huge cat bigger then that one eats the leaves off my plants I have to keep him away.

Letting my babies enjoy the sun this morning they are growing pretty nice. I added more clamps to my cage making sure it’s all bolted down. Just need to close up two top ends which I’ll do tomorrow if rain don’t show up. I went inside to check on my rabbit my husband walks in telling me the neighbors digging something in the back yard making holes for your plants. I was like hell no not my babies I stormed out looking for my cameras I put one up to keep any eye on my plants and backyard the other cameras will go up another day.

Just finished watering my babies excited they are cute and growing. Took them outside so they can soak in all the sunlight.

 

[Diatomacious]

They look pretty... nice job on the fertilizer... won't be long now

 

[Stunger]

Wow, you are really making a real commitment to your grow. Looks fantastic!
The cages look serious for protection but if you are getting plants stolen, I wonder if a thief could dig/scoop out a hole from underneath the cage and crawl in to grab some of your crop. I guess the cameras should put them off but hopefully that is not likely.

Cameras works wonders I don’t thing they can use a bar to lift the cages each one is 288 lbs my cameras gets any motion even the cats. Usually I’m around I stay home making sure no one gets no sneak peek of what it looks like.

Letting my babies soak in some sunlight hopefully by next week I can transplant them to a medium container just want to make sure the roots grew enough to take it to the next level. I don’t leave my plants outside overnight due to the weather still being cold outside. This Saturday will hit the 80’s looking forward to see my babies grow. I have my cage completed I have the both tops all secure. My guard kitties ‍ watching my plants for me.

 

[Diatomacious]

That's a lot of work... make sure you get the guys stealing it on video

Looking healthy as can be... I know they are looking forward to that real dirt.
