How did the little birdies do? Guess they are having babies now! It was cute!

Your pictures are so awesome, translucent, just makes me wanna toke!

In an earlier post, you mentioned trimming the lower portions. I was curious, did you clone them or toss um? Like post # 89 around there!

Once heck of a Halloween party in BC!!!

Another little question. You mentioned bamboo! I have a good source for some and my property has some rough terrain. So, I thought I would plant bamboo all around the parcel. Any advice to get it to grow fast? Or would you even advise me to use it? About how long to get them at least 10 feet tall (unlike your 20' plus logging trees) I have somewhere between 3 1/2 - 5 acres, heaven only knows for sure. Yes, it has been surveyed, but the county likes to take chunks and all the parcels are being sold around me and they like sticking their spikes inside mine! Since, I am sort of on an island, I don't care how much they take, as long as they stay on their side and I don't pay the taxes for it! Not really, I just got tired of trying to fight it. I have the area I want! Whoops, a bigger ? than I thot!

Those 20 footer's, how big is the cola? How hard is it to cut them down? Chainsaw or ? Just curious! :jointsmile:

I keep going back and looking at your pix and I think I'd like to take a nap in the middle of the grow! Bet, it would be the best one of my life!!! So long as Stinky's little woodchuck stays home that day! Take care and thank you so much for all the entertainment and enjoyment I've gained from your grow! PR :thumbsup:

haha ya that woodchuck would piss me off.. eat my home grown food lol get the heck outa here!!! live trap it and release it 100 miles away lol

The bamboo I use grows from ground around may "spring time" it starts and will grow till nov "it flowers like marijuana and drops seeds also dies off " I try to research the plants/trees around were I will grow as they can play a big role in cover/smell knowing when they die off and start to yellow helps know whats a good area and whats not.. There are diffrent types of bamboo and some grow very tall and lanky and some grow thick/bushy and fast like the ones around my area. They are perfect cover and blend nice with the plants. Also the soil around them is great for growing with just adding a few things to the soil to make it right. They like lots of water so a water source near by that they feed off of cause man they love water lol "keep that in mind cause you dont wanna have to worrie about watering bamboo to keep your plants coverd

Those lower branches were cloned off . No waste goes on here

They are starting to fill in nice I will take pics of them this weeknd. haha a few are starting starting to fall over. Going to have to tie em back to the bamboo around "another reason I like having it right near bamboo they make wicked stakes and tie offs for your plants
colas are getting nice and thick on the 20 footer and there is one thats about 15 feet and all the buds are totally purple now "the black velvet" I will take pics of that one also forsure. Cooler temps are bringing out the colours I will chop the big ones with my machete btw hahaha. gonna be a hack job forsure.

Glad ya dig the pics. Will take pics of breeding section also.:thumbsup:

The little birds grew up and took off they stuck around for a while but I'm guessing they go south and come back next year or somthing cause they havnt been around. I left the nest there maybe they will use it again next year
