I live between 3000 and 4000 ft up on the west side of a 10,000 ft dorment volcano. Each night cool air flows down the mountain. When the sun rose this AM we were at 59 outside. Right now at 930 AM it is 65 in the shade. Each day the land below us heats up and warm air rises causing a cloud cover every afternoon. So our high today will be @75. If we have no cloud cover (very rare) it will get to 80.Quote:

Glad to answer your question, and have a great day.
Sounds pretty amazing alright, thanks for the answer would have to go few thousand miles to get condtions like that. enjoy the day :jointsmile:
Life on the rock continues. If anyone is following this missguided madness of a season, you will have heard me whine, bitch, moan, and grumble about the three wastes of space.
Recap, a person I am caregiver to brought her own seeds fom the mainland. Asked me to give them a shot. I said fine. Well three of them went off early, and never bothered to go into vege mode. Two were nice plants. stinky, sticky, and too damn small. The third just sucked eggs all around. Needless to say these three were crimping his/her potential harvest. The whole idea of this grow is to supply four patients with smoke for the entire year. Not three of us doing great and one bumming joints off of us for half a year.
When we started this trip, I had everybody give me veto power over this grow. Even the wife of my youth gave it up. Then took it back, but that was to be expected and I know better than to kick that hive...
Today I noticed a spot of rot in one of the little wastes of space. And that was all it took. They are out of here. F##k 'em. Call them up and come get them. Move over, I gotta salvage your harvest. (God, I sound like Al Haig... I'm in charge here!) (and if you have to ask, you are not old enough)
Here we are, mid July, and I have two holes EMPTY. I need two clones and I need them yesterday. I also need to put a couple of feet on them before they go inground. Friend I gave clones to gave two back. He was also kind enough to put them in bigger pots with fresh dirt. Now the two clones are in my light room getting light this PM. This morning I will put them in sunlight. 24 hours of light should get them up faster than 13.
In three weeks I will put them in my empty holes. These two need to catch up fast. Ideally I would like to get them to 8 ft but I will sett....correction...He/she will settle for 6 ft. And be damn f##king happy about it.
And with these last two I can relax. I have my garden just the way I want it. For now....
Pic 1 are the replacements.
Pic 2 is a pretty tree... I got nothing more.
That looks like a nice joint smoking spot.

That beautiful tree is, unfortunatly, in the main courtyard of the Hotel Hana Maui. :(
You'd get 1 hit and..... SECURITY! Four large local Hawaiian males (know to us haoles as mokes) would be there to haul you down to the police station (one cell... no waiting) about 3 blocks away.
Besides this is Maui... we get plenty pretty trees to go smoke under.
Yesterdays post ended with this quote "And with these last two I can relax. I have my garden just the way I want it...for now.
That lasted for 4 whole hours. This AM I did my usual walk around. Always save the best for last. I have two project plants. Big one and wide one. Big one I wanted to bend stems so I tied the stem up and did my thing.
Wide one is another story. It is 5 ft tall and 8 ft by 8 ft across. I knew this one would give me problems because the stem is a mess. This AM I was greeted by a quarter of the plant on the ground. Last night the stem split. Dropped two large branches on the ground and they were starting to wilt.
Frame time. Now. Crank on the water. Now. I built a quick bamboo frame around wide one and tied up the broken branches. Repaired the split, by both lifting from the bottom and top of the branches at the same time. Weight is now hanging from frame. Then I tied a quarter inch drip line around the split and supported both branches from the bottom also.
By 10:00 AM I was done. Nothing to do but see what happens next. Nature cooperated by giving me a cloudy day. At 5:00 PM I went out and she LIVES. Wilt is gone. Tied up other branches that may split off later.
Plant is still a mess. If I can keep her alive she will yield big. But I honestly think she will be nothing but trouble.
Pic 1 is her before I took the top and left the bottom to regrow.
Pic 2 is her before split. Pic took 7/2/10
Pic 3 is what greeted me this morning. Started frame.
Pic 4 is the stem split.
Pic 5 is after repair. Pray for me.
prayers
Wide one is still wide. Yesterday we had some sun and those two split off branches are doing fine. This AM they had little drops of water on the leaf tips, so the broken branches are transpiring.
Asked my neighbor to turn on one of his water troughs in his pasture way above my yard and he did. The deer are now up there. So they are not hanging around my fenceline anymore.
These next two posts are all the gulch girls. It has been two weeks since I posted pics of the whole gulch girl line. Things are getting big out there. And they have a lot more to go.
Pic 1 is the big girl. I have her tied and braced. Yardstick is hanging from a branch. Main branch is 9 ft tall. Second branch is 7+
Pic 2 is a replacement clone. It sits in big ones shaddow and is just starting to jump.
Pic 3&4 are the wide one. Now repaired.
Pic 5 is a Cali girl. A skunk /thai mix. The hairs on this girl are pink. Looks like I must break my rule about not cutting leaves here. She has a lot of leaves.
Continue from last post;
Pic 1 is close up of pink pistils of #4
Pic 2 is another clone. Nothing to write home about. But, I ain't hiding anything in this log.
Pic 3 is another regrow. Will turn into a round bush.
Pic 4 another regrow. Yardstick is hanging in this one also. She has been tied down too.
