Hey all!
Bear and Yeag... your respective beans are either full or half siblings, or first cousins, with the same Afghani heritage...I made a couple crosses using both a male and female Afghani Dream x the other parent derived from my own line. The Afghani Dreams were all from the same cross that my friend made. It may be an Afghani Dream F2... whatever it is, it's all Afghan and all purty.

Hey the more the merrier up in Alaska, huh?! Shit I need to get a job up at UAA and move my butt back up to the rugged land.

SativaHAze and c of green I'll resend that email if I can find a draft of it! Or just write back! The other stuff growing that looks funky is dill. It's a little floppy and sparse though... may be one of those herbs like cilantro that just really enjoys being outdoors. And destiny is right! Did your father teach you growing? I've known only a couple people so far for whom growing is a family tradition passed down... and one of them is responsible for those Afghan genetics that have caused such a stir... and he's still just a pup!


Well as for updates, I'm now cloning in rapid-rooters, ambient temps 68 deg F, under humidity dome, mist 2x/day with plain water, dip in Clonex, whole thing on a seedling heat mat ($24 at the farmers coop in town)... anyone want to buy a slightly used ez cloner? LOVING the rapid rooters. Totally loving my new fertilizer guru who bugged me to try them! He's on the boards but I have no fucking clue what user he is! Hee hee. This place is great huh?

Also I am streamlining my operation. With my recent cloning success combined with an influx of great new genetics I'll be decreasing my sprouting rate to only 3 seeds per new strain to guarantee at least one female, and keeping a large collection of mothers.

With this comes an increased need for training so I'll be going with a single-trunk diagonal pattern with branches trained off of it... like the leaf of a fern, but more in 3-d... I have to get my numbers down to a more manageable level.

And with no boyfriend in the picture, I've got more time to do it! Poor guy, he's still calling me complaining that I have the best weed in town... well, funny, because I STILL have a need for a tame electrician!!! Works out nice... and actually after a long talk on Christmas day we no longer are sniping over the phone at each other. Phew.

So anyhow a couple of you should check your emails... think genetic archives... Yeag is moving, I'm gearing up for a major construction project that will require untamed contractors and building inspectors poking around...you can see where I'm going.

Um lesse... anything else? Um... since breaking up with The Jeff, I've dropped a quick 5 pounds on my bachleorette diet of omlettes and Mediterranean snack food. Haven't had the cholesterol checked though...

Things are great.
Life is great.
It's sunny and supposed to snow oer the weekend.
I have more seeds to share soon.
My boss doesn't need me to come in this weekend after all.
My Purple Star plants ALL turned purple, not just half of them as advertised.
I was lucky enough to bump into a frisky ex last night. mmmm.....
I got invited to "THE" new years eve party out on Cape Cod.
My tenant isn't moving out until spring, phew.
But he IS moving out, meaning I'll be moving downstairs into my old digs that included a WAY better growing area... with a 12 x 12 climate-controlled flower room...
It just doesn't get much better than this!
