My First Journal

[smoke99]

And for the photo inspectors
The small plants with leaf damage, the plant pest is known, it's a K9 with a taste for chewing weed fan leafs, he knows better but don't listen.
The outdoor pics, the foliage on the ground was cut as I thinned out the canopy pre harvest, trying to lighten the work when I cut em down.
We have discussed keeping one of them growing after harvest as an experiment to see if it will regrow.

Meanwhile outdoors the G13 on the left is due any day now to be cut and begin drying. Momma GDP center has solid flowering going on but at least 3 or 4 weeks out still.
The G13 on the outside right is a week or two behind sibling on the far left.

I love see nice healthy outdoor girls this time of year. I'm just about to harvest my third crop this year from my icicle garden. Hehe, beautiful girls enjoy the sunshine and stay safe my friend

 

[smoke99]

Yes sir
Snow long gone from here
And these girls were too tall to stay inside without burning on the lights or cutting to fit under them at 4 feet tall or better.
Meanwhile my tomato plants look like tree stalks!

Even my cactus has jumped huge from Feb 20 to today.
It was abused by an autistic student on his teachers desk. She figured it was a gonner, but a steady diet of fish poop fertilizer has really revived it.

Well now things just took a turn for awesome! The small bag on the zon is 30 bucks for 6lbs.
My local feed store FINALLY got a shipment of foxfarms soil!!!!!
30 bucks for 6lbs or

30.95 for 40 lbs
I got 2 of the big boys so now I'm not skimping on soil and new plants.

been reading a few other journals and never knew there were so many ways to germinate a seed
before today. I live in farm country, seriously, traffic jams here usually involve a large tractor and some kind of sprayer, plow etc. I've had pretty solid results germinating the same way we did lima beans back in 3rd grade science class, wet paper towel seed and aluminum foil folded around it, toss in the window for sun and heat a few days, get roots every time I have done this way. I get I am only growing for personal consumption, and if I had to germinate more than a few seeds it could be difficult, but I like simple things since that is about all I can handle most days it seems.

Everything you said is dead on. I use the same Everything you listed. My first time. Makes me feel like I chose wisely.

Well Billben50 take anything in my post with a grain of salt, or a salted rim on a margarita glass as I am a novice compared to many of the folks that post regularly here.
I try to document my journey with plants and how simply amazing they can be when given even a bit of attention and some love.
If I happen to help you along the way, great however I killed a bunch of plants before I ever posted a picture here for sure!!!!!

So soon! Was windy as hell and hard to get a good up close Pic of the trichromes but this plant feels ready

 

[smoke99]

Few more days and it's into the dryer

Seedlings are on day 40 Afghan Gold and Purple Berry Kush.
Barney's Farms Muffin is kicking along at day 33 a week behind the other 2 but catching up fine.
Haven't cut the top out of Runtz yet but soon enough, have plants scattered between my indoor grow and outdoors with the larger mature plants

Beautiful girls my friend.

Picture updates tomorrow just too late today to drag pots around and take pics.
The G13 is seriously becoming a sexy beast.
The Barney's Farms Runts catapulted in height in 48 hours, gonna be cutting the top out of her this week for sure and sending her off to clone.

 

[smoke99]

The seedlings are in the potts with tape labels.
The Barney's farms Runtz is the 3rd plant no label. Planted as a seed on 2/21 so 24+7=31 days? Not bad from dry seed to needs a haircut.
More later from outdoors will be there this afternoon.

And yes my math was way off last picture of the runtz Feb and 28 days always screws with my day count

Nice healthy girls my friend. What we all like to see.

 

[smoke99]

so the pics from the other day were 31 days, today would be 33 as its the 26 not the 24, man maybe I shouldn't smoke and post at the same time, oh well its not like its rocket science, the worst thing that can happen is I get munchies

 

[smoke99]

Cut this branch off one of the outside crew.
Gonna let it dry and see how it feels.
And yes this was just a side branch not the main Kola it's actually quite a bit larger

 

[smoke99]

Well 75% of 1 plant in the box!
Sometime around may 1 we shall see

 

[smoke99]

It's been a busy few days
Here are some fresh pics
Barney's farms has recovered nicely from the clone clipping.
Purple berry just is still smaller than the afghan gold but both are scrubbing nicely

 

[smoke99]

Here's a weird one
Grew identical plants
Same seeds
Same soil
Same water
Yet one has bright yellow fan leaves despite the fact I hit it with some solid nutes 3 weeks ago. Has nice bud development but the plant itself is damn near banana yellow. Ph is on point in my soil holding a nice 6.5
G13 is the strain in question, you can see my GSC in the background
