Any hope that you'll send me a thanksgiving care package and accidentally spill some beans in it. It would be a real thanksgiving to remember.

sweet thread. im amazed at the scale and precision in which you are growing! what are u doing to control odor?

[stinkyattic]

what are u doing to control odor?

Nothing, nada, rien.

It's a stinky attic!

Seriously, It's on the 3rd floor of a house built into a hillside with a walkout basement, so essentially the 4th floor... high wind area... only neighbors are yuppies... can't smell a thing from the yard, and if you got close enough to be snooping my bulldog and my tenant's mastiff would eat you.

So the answer to privacy is, scope out your grow spot with that in mind.

Here's some bud porn for the morning! First pic is the first half of this week's harvest, and the second is a nice bud shot from a bud I took down before work today.

Next is some of my other crop! Mmmmm... cherry bombs!

The last one is for all you Aqua Teen Hunger Force fans out there.... my BF, my friend Khaki, and myself got baked Wednesday night and built ourselves a BroodWich.

Looking Sweet Ass,.,,,,,,

Well nothing much is going on in the grow room but...um.. growing...
The Matanuska Thunderfuck stash seeds that a helpful Alaskan expatriate sent along have popped and broke dirt this morning. Just about the right time of year too because I have much less control over temps in the winter up there in the mostly UNINSULATED attic... aargh. So a cold-hardy variety is going to be in order.
I'm a total space case, but I'm going to try to list what I've got going in there in order of age, oldest to youngest.
My own mix (lots of plants)
A friend's 4-way knockoff- just 1
A friend's Haze x- also just 1
A couple Afghans, one topped, one 'natural'- the natural one is much nicer looking
All of the above are within 1-3 weeks of harvest

In flower, not really developed yet are:
A crapload of my own crosses
3 BOG plants- 1 smashberry, 2 unknown

Then more of the same getting sexed

Then in veg, I've got these that will be ready to force within the next couple weeks:
More BOG mix, recuperating from having clones taken
More of my crosses
Some assorted bagseeds... some that look too sat-dom are getting culled tonight, for real, I keep putting it off!
6 Papaya
10 Godbud x dreamweaver
10 Gypsy's Gum

Then the little guys
White Rhino, just a few- had problems with germ rate on those
3 Chrystal
9 Super Skunk

And finally the babies!
3 BOG/PlanB Black Indica
3 BOG Bluemoonrocks
3 Hindu Kush
All of the above are hinting at purple traits!!!
12 Matanuska Thunderfuck
Plus a few bagseeds from a friend that I expect to be FANTASTIC.

So this is how I keep things interesting, just starting a few different seeds every weekend.

Oh, and I caught aphids and greenhouse whiteflies because I was fucking lazy and forgot to run the new pots I scrounged out of the dumpster at a local nursery through the dishwasher first. I mean, WOW, I'm a friggin moron this week.

So the biggest excitement in my life for the next few days will be battling the hungry hordes of leaf-sucking insects....

I can only count my blessings that I only got 3 of the 'big 4'.... no red spider mites. Thank goodness.

Just for everyones' info, though, my preventative neem oil treatment, spraying all the plants down at least once a day, is working. The bugs are only eating my basil and hot peppers. No damage on the ladies.

No really, if you hung out with me on a daily basis and saw me this week you'd call me a space case too. I'm really off my game for some reason. I've been trying to cut back on the caffeine and I think it's hurting my ability to even function normally. I give up... someone get me a shot of espresso....
*gulp*

[kdspecial]

I used to rock lots of coffee... but It makes my gut rot... We havea swet espresso machine and coffee maker at work.. I can have as many as I want.. I used to love the half hot choclate and coffe mixes

Now I drink mad Green tea... like I mean close to 10 or 12 a day... im sure they are loaded with Caffeen. We had a asian Coop student helping here at the studio and she turned me onto it. i think its better for me than coffee but I could be totally wrong. ither way it don't give me gut rot and its awsome first thing in the morrning....

I never really liked the taste of coffee untill I drank like 3 in a row.. then they started tasting soo soo good. kinda like Cigarettes but Im super glad I didn't keep pulling on those fukers in high school.... I'm so happy I don't smoke butts... i can't stand them.. Seen them kill so many family members..

kinda oof topic of growing but whatevs.... ahhaha sorry for the RANt!
