heeheehee love it lol.
Hi sweetie- wow, you are a grownup grower now, with that fine hood! Very impressive, as is that branch of bud- delish. I also love your aesthetic as shown by the tulips and Japanese maple. You have a grower's heart and a designer's eye!
This weather better not mess up my tomato and pepper plants:wtf:
I know you are going through a tumultuous time right now, so whenever you need to run away, just give me a call, come on down and hang out - the hot tub is always on!
Hey girl, I was replying to your thread as you were posting on mine!
Thank you re: my garden. That is my pride and joy. The front of my house faces east, and there is a large cliff directly across the street, so it gets only a couple hours of morning sun. The idea of that garden is a combination of shade-loving and native plants. I have a wonderful fern collection... they are HARD to dig up, lol, and when I go hunting I have to take a hatchet to break off a chunk! I bring back a bucket of the substrate as well and plant them with their 'feet' underneath the front porch to keep cool.
There are also some other really neat forest plants in that garden- trillium, jack in the pulpit, yellow spotted fawn lily, and then the more mundane astilbe and tradescantia. The tulips are just there for color until the ferns come up.
Speaking of messing up plants, Yeag called the other day about his own veggies- with all the rain everyone has been getting, the only things that seem happy are the tomatoes and tomatillos; most of the peppers did NOT take well to the run of wet weather the Midwest has been having.
lol Ima go check your thread now
heehee this is funny, like hide n seek! Demeter and Stinky are chasing each other around the board!Quote:

Tag, you're it!!!!
Talk to ya in a bit!
well foxy has the temp sorted now with the aircooled hood?:Dyou wouldnt happen to have any BOG genetics(seeds) lying around you wanna trade:jointsmile:iI wouldnt mind havin some of those genes in my garden.davey the postman.
Hello it's been a while then...
Postman, I'll be playing with some crosses and backcrosses over the next few months so expect great things! :D
The temps are beautiful. The flowering girls potted up with compost again are basking in the light- I added another 400w of HPS now that the temps are under control. Everyone is loooking good.
I started some skunk #1 and Northern Lights recently as well. And something else... although I will have to go have a look... oh yes, I remember what it was, it was a cross I made a year ago that the most recent generation had a pheno that stank almost like kerosene, and I am growing out a bunch of seeds from that particular female.
Why skunk and NL? Couple reasons... I need a good male, basically. My recent genetics acquisitions, the Kush, Afghani, and PPP are all in female clone format and I feel that having a couple males of VERY well stabilized strains is vital. To this end I also popped some more seeds from the Yeags Alaskan stock in hopes of a good male, as that strain is nice and predictably hardy.
I'm still having a hell of a time with the clones, since my mother plants are still stressed from my coco fibre misadventures... I'm not on top of things enough to give coco the attention to detail that it demands to really produce, and my pH was consistently FAR too high for that medium. Back in compost I'm free to water happily with unadjusted tap water, lol.
After a permethrin bomb and a few good spritzes of rotenone, I haven't seen a thrip in my veg closet in a couple weeks. Rotenone isn't the best stuff to be around, particularly if you are a thrip, but for humans either, so I basically sprayed, ran, and shut the damned door behind me, lol.
The five local cuts that I was gifted recently, the afghan and kush, are potted up in compost and growing very well- thanks man. They are still too small to really show their true structure but I will post pics soon to see if one of the old-timers around the boards can distinguish which is the Kush. Only one came with a label.
Well I guess that's the update for now. Seeya next time...
Okay here's some pictures.
The coco experiment is officially OVER. Too much bother. Everyone got repotted last night back into compost.
Here's a couple of the veg closet... got some nice clones in there and a really high-end and VERY expensive odor control system.
The plants on the top shelf are showing the lingering symptoms of neglect+coco, not a good combination. Basically my pH was way too high and micros were all locked out.
There's some from-seed plants too- a couple Skunk#1, a couple of my own cross derived from a similar line as the ones Shovelhandle has, but using a different mother who had even MORE purple in her but also came originally from a BOG medley, that's the one in the solo shot with the BIZARRE way it holds its fingers all together like that... very sturdy little plant though. And there's a SAGE X in there too.
