rattlesnakes

[washmedical]

so i think there may be rattlesnakes at my outdoor grow...? looked it up and cicada kind of sounds like a rattlesnake... anyways i haven't *seen* the "rattlesnake" but i might of seen these other little bugs. Either way.. any good diy rattlesnake repellent that are safe to use?

[Dezarias]

you could try one of those plastic owl's

[Douglas1]

just watch where you step.. rattle snakes'll keep away rippers too

[washmedical]

lol @ plastic owl.. yea i figured im up shit creek on this one.. also figured yeah its pretty good grow security.. instant karma for anyone stumbling thru the area not paying attention to their surroundings

[Kaboard]

wut would be good... is to catch it... take a hockey stick... or long L shaped stick... and pin it down!!! from its head!!! then take a knife and cut his head off... then u will be fine!!!

[washmedical]

nah im not into the senseless killing. Prob not the smartest to go rattlesnake hunting... plus a hockey stick is a little out of place being that the weather here is 90 degrees

Ha Ha ! Be careful I have a grower friend in Mendacino that says the rattlers like to hang out under his plants in the heat of the day. Thread lightly my friend . Waterdog

[washmedical]

my 1 and a half footers aren't too good of a cover for anything to hide, thanks for the advice though

[Purple Daddy]

You could put up a sign "protected by watch rattlesnakes" JHC that sure as hell would keep me away.

Yup big feet!

Just stomp yer way in, the rattlers will split.

They can't hear but they do feel vibrations through the ground.
Little vibrations, they hunt.
Big ones, they run from.
Be da big ones. :)

[washmedical]

anyone in the area uninvited will have to find out about the snakes on their own.. signs would just draw more attention as its a rural area.. and yeah i normally do stomp around cause theres cheat grass and vines and all kinds of vegetation near my grow

[Weezard]

You be fine den "stompy guy". :)
You da beeg rattler.

Tread lightly?
Get bit!

Heck!
Sneak up on me, maybe I gonna bite, yah? ;)

Aloha.

I was just kidding. Make sure you carry a long walking stick with you and stomp around with it, snakes are generally spooked easily and won't attack unless cornered.

[washmedical]

awesome lizard! Maybe someday ill make it to the island... its a long swim though :P

and the rattlesnake turned out to be a bullsnake? im guessin just was makin rattling noises slitherin thru the dried grass.. was a nice 2-3 foot though

oh and the blueberry reveg is turning into a crazy canopy like 2 foot tall and 3 foot wide, burmese kush is a week into flower smellin like pinesol lol and my 2 gdps one is bushy as fuck and the other i topped is growing extremely slow

[Weezard]

Excellent line-up

Ah!

Or a blacksnake, those tricky buggahs will rattle their tails in dry leaf litter when spooked.
So will a hog-nosed snake.
They are mostly harmless so they try to scare ya away with that trick.
Prolly a nervous tic on their part, but it makes them seem sentient.

Black racers and bullsnakes will then split, but the hog-nosed will coil-up and act all fierce.
If that no work, touch it anywhere and it will fake a painful death then play possum.

In my youth, I was an amateur herpetologist.

There are no snakes on the islands so we are up to our asses in rats while Riki-tiki-tavi goes hungry!
I kind of miss the snakes. :)

Aloha,
Us 'zards knows our reptiles.

[washmedical]

kickass man, thanks :)

[washmedical]

[washmedical]

hrmm im learning :P

[washmedical]

crazy what 5 days will do to a plant

[washmedical]

and here they are
#1 Buku cola #2 buku baby gdp and bigger gdp #3 already forgot but i think its the BuKu with baby gdp chillin #4 big gdp #5 The blueberry re-veg bonsai likea mofo

[washmedical]

the gdps almost doubled in size +++

[Purple Daddy]

Looking good! Don't worry about one of them flowering already we're experiencing this pehenomenon on the west coast, even some of the busts they are making in the national forest are reporting budding plants so yeah it's weird but not just for you! LOL

When you say re-veg plants, are these plants you had already grown full term then re-veged or were they plants that started budding when they were small?

[washmedical]

The Blueberry re-veg was under a foot tall, and had been lst'd (the person i got them from said they had been budding for 2 weeks, but it looked more like 2weeks till it would of been finished) but anyways i ended up chopping the top cola drying curing and sampling it lol and being that i dont have a lamp it went outside and became the plant it is now. The buds that were on it shriveled into brown matter and eventually fell off the plant, and was replaced by tons of shoots. The last pic is the Blueberry and it prob has 30-40 tips

[washmedical]

guessin the buku is a 8 week strain i should have 1 plant dryin the first week of sept

[Purple Daddy]

OK, was just curious, I re-vegged a plant I grew full term this spring. Seems to me it took a very long time to begin plush new growth but when it's done it will be about 50% larger then it was originally.

[washmedical]

97 degrees out and my plants are drinking like alcoholics. Bring on the buds!

[washmedical]

hrmm already forgot the order
first 2 are blueberry, third is the bigger GDP, 4th is the BuKu and 5th is a closer up of the bigger GDP

[painretreat]

Lookn' for a picture of your snake! A very nice and funny thread, thanks for the entertainment! PR

[washmedical]

lol i've only seen the snake once and of course it was when i didn't have my camera.. thinking it must of moved on to bigger and better things

[waterdog]

or.....It could be "LURKING" in the shade of those lovely looking ladies. Be carefull bro !

[washmedical]

nah the grass would prob be a better hiding spot for it, the grass/bush/vines and shit around my plants are taller than my plants lol

[washmedical]

well tomorrow will be week 5 of bud for the BuKu, and its just starting to pack on the frostyness, its been getting hit by a sprinkler about once a week during the day, and so far i haven't seen any problems, but i am starting to get scared. Humidity has been around 30-35% with temps in the mid 90's with nighttimes mid 50's to 60's. lots of sun and high 80 degree weather for the next week

[washmedical]

been six days since the last pics, thinned out the gdp a little.. blueberry needs it the most though lol.. pics in an hour or so

[washmedical]

and im slackin.. pics soon

[washmedical]

well heres a nice photoshoot of the buku before she gets the axe. GDP's alongside

[washmedical]

took a pic inside the canopy of the blueberry of the LST bonsaiiiiiiiiii

pic #4 is the bigger gdp is the buku's cola peekin around

[washmedical]

well the BuKu is hanging chopped her 2 nights ago.. looking like 10 grams dried.. maybe a half.. been a while since i've been around a digi. Smells bomb but the buds aren't as full as I'd like.. prob gonna go in a jar tomorrow

[washmedical]

well i went to check on the girls at 6am this morning and snapped a mid size branch off the blueberry.. thinning her out a little.. felt like slapping myself. things are doing nicely and will update pics in a couple days. Walking back from the spot i saw a fox?! seemed totally out of place cuz i've never seen or even heard of them being in this area.

[washmedical]

and the BuKu was more like 3 quarters, and surprisingly decent. Not as dense as i'd like but free is free

[washmedical]

gonna give it a couple days/weeks and im sure a good reason to celebrate will occur

[washmedical]

#1 gdp cola
#2+3 blueberry re-veg?
rest are the GDPs

[washmedical]

well the blueberry seemed to have refilled itself in.. growing like a mofo. this 90 degree temperature is nuts

[washmedical]

woa been a month. this site is about as stable as a 2 legged table. My blueberry re-veg had turned into a monster of a plant and some neighborhood kid decided he needed some leaf to smoke so im sad to report that it has been stolen. Hopefully the gdps have gone unnoticed

[washmedical]

hrm and i guess it hasn't been a month.. some of my posts didnt show lol. but yeah the gdp are showing tiny buds and will get chopped the day before halloween unless i get jacked again

[washmedical]

hmm been about 2 weeks since my last pic updates.. gonna have to work on that

[washmedical]

let em grow!

[painretreat]

Hey WM-nice display of pictures: Love it! Keep it up, very nice! PR :jointsmile:

[washmedical]

cant wait to see em fill in :)

[painretreat]

WM: they sure look nice. I saw a couple of buds that were about 11" long last weeek, the guy has been 'looking' at them for 6 months!!! I think pictures are sufficient and looking forward to seeing yours! PR

[washmedical]

thank you pr, they'll be coming along here shortly. Im about 2 weeks into flower

[MEDEDCANNABIS]

just watch where you step.. rattle snakes'll keep away rippers too

dead rippers also invite pooolice. you could be sued for an attractive nuisance. "i could call an ambulance however i think ill just drag you away" thats messed up:D:thumbsup:

[canadianhemperor]

:cool:Put a rat trap with a mice on it and put it somewhere so they leave your plants alone. just so they know who is the boss!or Use a bear trap but i dont think the snake is heavy enough to trigger it!:wtf:

[washmedical]

well my gdp turned out to be blueberry, but is top notch smoke anyways. pulled about a qp of personal smoke and about a half ounce of kief-hash
