Just Another Crappy Day in Paradise Grow Log....Part Two.

Lol

I was thinkin' 'bout ya last night with 80, trembling, pounds of wee beastie in my lap.

Good dog!
Says she'll take a bullet for me, long as da gun makes no noise.:)

Now I wait to see if my moron neighbor and his hellish bright, actinic, ground fountains, hemied my Jack.

He bought a new CFL porch light yesterday, so I had just gone out and tacked up some reflectix shielding for that.
So, of course, he comes to the back of his yard and starts chain-lighting the fountains.
You could read fine print in my greenhouse!:mad:

Hadda scramble for towels and clothespins.
If bad decisions were pennies, I'd have a very wealthy neighbor.

Your trees are impressive!:)

Aloha,
Weeze

its like 2am right now, but yesterday around mid day i jus checked on the 2 plants that sprouted 2 weeks ago. the last time i checked them was, well 2 weeks ago. lol. but surprizingly the last storm didnt harm then. the only thing is that i think it rained so much, that all the ferts that were in the soil got drained out.. the growth slowed down incredibly, it pretty much looks ALMOST the same as when i last checked it! so its time to put more ferts. but thats for later on today hahahaha.
tips are still, and always will be wecome! and now its time to go nai nai!

LSY.... Climate....no. It's our photoperiod. Total swing between the longest day, and the shortest day is 2 hours 25 minutes. The gulch plants can't be regrown. Unlike you, I can't control the sun. :( So you work with what you get. I also need to clear the holes and put new dirt in, and all that fun stuff.

Four weeks... makes a difference between 1 in 10 regrowable to 7 out of 10 regrowable. Your always going to have some that just go off and can't be regrown.

Shit Weez...You got what? 100 lbs of dog total?

I got 700 lbs....Buy the way, was that fire started by you?

Got the first T/S x T/S seeds off the univeral mom. She got hit real early as I let the T/S male go crazy on her sister. Lots of pollen flying that day. All the seeds were at the base of the bud. Combed thru and got about 50....so that line lives on...pay the man. :thumbsup:

A lot of these I will regrow. I feel a lot better now these are in.

Since I am a bit shy of boys....Looks like the Jack will be the univeral male.

Do you believe this? The one thai male....I didn't need.... I went there last year.

Kush...no males....HB....no males....NYD....no males.

Guess who sucks wind? Me. :mad:

wha, wha, wha.....Now I know why thet gave up those seeds...too damn easy.

Still got that Jack male....Say hello to daddy. Not a bad cross. Kush x Jack,
HB x Jack, NYD x Jack, Jack x Jack, and both Jack x T/S and T/S x Jack...you know what I'm going to say...

I threw it all against the wall and that is what stuck. Not too shabby. I still have brand x to mess with, and 4 New York Power Diesel...who names this shit anyway?

Oh...we are getting all the permits worked out....Looks like 21 holes for long season. Do more with less.

But at least with this log... Finish line....It's out there. Things should start to happen quickly now....

howzit, great thread bra, much enjoyed the read. mahalo``

"Shit Weez...You got what? 100 lbs of dog total?

I got 700 lbs....Buy the way, was that fire started by you?"

Es no possible!
I was too busy being the underdog, yah?

Fire was da nex' day anyway.

On da mainland, we called July 5th "scrounging day"
Here, it's also Jan 1st.
We'd swipe some matches an glean for the un-burned n duds, all day.
Short fuses an smoke flavored fingers.
So, as usual, I blames da keikes ;)

An you no get da wind-suckin' trophy dis year.:)
Lot a dat fem-power in da air dis season fo' some reason.
Got 5 out of 6 so far.

'course I did whip out my 'scope an' checked da "naughty bits" in da seeds before planting.
Planted da ones wit da roundest 'oles.
Thought it might have some truth to it.:cool:

Until you posted your results, that is.

Now it's looking more like Lola gal might have something with her, timing is everything, lunacy :D

Nex' time I have way too many seeds, and enough room, I'm considering planting 2 a day for an entire month.
A 60 plant, side by side video journal.:stoned:

Nah, too much work!:(
Mo' betta someone who is not me does it.:rastasmoke:

Aloha,

Weeze

MV...mahalo back atcha.

Weez...gotta stop staring at those seeds looking for naughty parts...Plant them all and let (insert appropriate diety here) sort 'em all out.

The weather last week was cold. We never even got above 70 most of last week. This week a strong high sits over Alaska. This high pushes the jet stream down over the islands, and with the jet stream comes the rain. Later today the first of these storms move through. Later this week another stronger one take it's place.

Normal winter weather. After a couple years of drought, it feels good to return to normal. We had hail last Wensday.

Hail...This ain't right...This is Hawaii? .....WTF???

All my crosses have been made. Using both the Jack male and the T/S saved pollen. That's done. Also harvested topknot. With all the crap weather we have had it should have turned into a moldball. It didn't.

Once I have a couple of thousand seeds in the bag I can move along to the next job. The crosses are made, the rest is going to happen by itself. Nothing to do but wait and watch for fags.

Now it's time to prepare for the long season. Shovel jumping. Manual Labor.

Last year I had 4 groups of 7. Some areas did great. Like the gulch. I'm enlarging that. I'm going to stuff as many as I can fit in there. On the other hand the top did poorly. I'm going to shut that down. And in the bottom area, I am preparing it now.

As I harvest out the gulch, no more replanting empty holes. This has been a nice diversion, but long season is the prize.

I know....boring.....Sorry eh?

Pics..

1) gulch up
2) gulch down
3) topknot
4) topknot closer up
5) the jack girl

How are your plants?

Fuck if I know. Hope there still there. If it ever stops raining I will go check, But I'd bet they've taken a shelacking.

Welcome back Kona Storm. This one was a good one. Fifty mile an hour winds, a foot or two of rain....The town below me is called Kihei is under 4 ft of water. Power was out for most of yesterday. Part of the water line that serves this area is gone, all the gulches are roaring.

Just braved the rain and checked....They are still there!!!!. They are sideways.... But that can be fixed. The little gulch barely flowed, and the rock tiers I built ponded the water, then released it to the next tier.

The wind has stopped, but the storm has stalled right over us. As soon as the sun rises I'm going to hop in the car and see what happened last night.

Wow...just wow....stand next to a gulch and watch the boulders roll past.

DAYUM!!!!!!


That sucks, at least your girls are still there,.... My best spells/wishes that all goes well over the next few days! ;)

Oh man that musta been one big rain man. But like Canni said ''there still there'' and you know they got a helluva root system going on under the them.

Just a thought, but when the Sun pops up the branch growth should just pick up and grow toward the Sun. So could ya just make sure the roots are covered enough to get them through budding or do you need to get them off the ground asap! I was just thinking of the purple plant i put in side ways and how each branch grew up to be all colas. It was ripped off so i only had a sample of it, oh well. But the thing looked great after watching the growth find the Sun and they were getting fat too.

But you da man bro:hippy:so im sure you know what to do. Great pic's man! I just luv seeing some of that part of the world as il never be able to see it in person:( But i can come here and live it through the killer thread man:D

My idea was only to try and save your ass the work, but like i said, you know what your doing there.

Thanks again for for the great info:thumbsup:

Keep er green man:weedpoke:


:rasta:

Remember....This is all bullshit.

We got more rain in the last two weeks than we had all of last year. The last two storms have left behind a total of sixteen inches....by my count... And the last one is at our doorstep.

Fuck me running....Just what we need....more rain....Yes.... That would help.

This one is not as strong as the last two storms. And less wind too. All the girls have been proped up. I broke the top off the biggest one in the process...so I fucked up....again. If the wind comes up again I can pull the props and let the plant fall over to go with the wind.

But, hopefully that won't be necessary.

Anyway....we were thinking last year....what would happen.... If we were to take a couple of pounds of seeds....That's right .....pounds....and dump them in a flowing gulch.

At the time we neither had the seeds, or the flowing gulch.

Guess what? Remember my partner? The one with the seeded long season last year? Like 8 million seeds?

Now we do....:D....and we did....:D

Yep....We just Johnny Appleseeded all of Kihei.... Bombs away....:D....Perfect timing, see the water, it flows rarely. Those gulches are dry. Once it falls off the hill, It flood plains, Spreads out, Drops seeds and dirt...all throughout wherever it lands.

Do you think ...for one second....that we will go chase the gulch later and see what happened??? Hell no....Well....maybe....Hhhhmmmmm....

I don't think so. I have a feeling we just caused a giant Green Harvest problem. This will be messy. More better I start the ball rolling and bail...

Asshole...Yep....that's me....:D

But... If one in five hunderd of the hundred thousand seeds or so, we dumped sprouts....thats two hundred plants...who knows what will happen? Where will they pop up? Maybe they got into the sea? Maybe they will pop up on S Kihei Rd. If they do you know where they came from...ME. Yep... There will be a gulch full of weed....somewhere on the slopes above Kihei

Who cares?.... We just wanted to give them a shot....Dust in the wind. If green harvest finds them??? Fuck 'em....get to work...Sweat you bastards....you got a shitload of wild weed to pull...

Who knows?....Who cares???

See? This is what happens when we have too much free time.... This is all bullshit anyways. We would NEVER do that.... Hell yes...we would. In a heartbeat....

What do you think? Do you think I would dump a whole shitload of seeds into a wet flowing gulch....just to see what happens???...NOOOooo..
