I was so scared it was going to be a piece of shit and I've never been happier to be wrong
Quit your job, start gardening.
On the bright side, think about all the plastic pollution that happens because the government won't let me take my own glass jar to the weed store!
Wait that sucks actually
Shokz are game changing, I love mine so much
Dr Bronner's insane ramblings are at least wholesome though
It's Black Widow, I pretty much always grow it because the terpene profile is exactly what I want. I really want to start breeding, because holy cow these are some spendy beans. I've had a couple volunteer cannabis plants spring up, so maybe I'll find some seeds 👀👀
Based on the timing from my first flowering period in the spring I think I'm looking at probably the first or second week of October. Should be a metric ass load of weed, too, so that's rad.
Thank you! They're in the ground but I heavily amended the soil. I've definitely had some setbacks but I'm happy with how they're turning out.
I call shenanigans, flying squid generally only live 1 year in the wild.
We're all mad. Please remember our posting guidelines especially Commandment 1&2.
Nerds know how to get down, bro.
I'm pretty strongly anti-capitalist and have talked many times about how commodification is ruining cannabis. Saying that today weed is worse because it's stronger is asinine though. It sounds like the ramblings of someone that got way too high with too little tolerance and wants to ruin it for everyone.
Finally got a weekend to ourselves so we came here for our honeymoon and it is ah-mazing. Is Michigan the promised land?
In that fat ass joint is Bizzle's Own Organic Craft Cannabis. It's good, I'm very excited to harvest the rest of my plants in the fall.
Please forgive my wack ass microscope
I'm going to chop off about two feet from each of them, even out the canopy a little bit, and then brace for the stretch at the end of June. Also my cover crop looks awesome, it gives the whole greenhouse a real Secret Garden vibe. I pulled a lawn chair in here, it's my new favorite smoke spot.
Someone was asking me about pests. These have spider mites, they're not super bad but I'm going to spray neem oil anyway. It's not ideal but my ecosystem doesn't have any spider mites predators right now so it's really my only current solution. I'm not interested in non-native predators but if anyone has a line on some Illinois native predatory insects holler at me.
You can also see how well established my cover crop is! I'm a big fan of cover cropping. Monoculture is literally poison to the Earth, so obviously Bizzle don't play that shit.
Anyway the big one in the middle is up to my nose 😂 and they're fully flowering which sucks but I'm learning for next year. Nothing I ever do is a failure, it's just some shit I did.
My plants are a little leggy still but the days are getting longer so they'll reveg soon. I still haven't planted my produce crops lmfao my wife is starting to complain about my priorities.
What're y'all doing today? Personally I'm getting married so that'll be fun. I'm gonna be high on edibles for it lmfao
I think they'll be ok, they had thrown a few pistils but I don't see them now. But I was already worried about height and now I especially am.
Hopefully they live! This is 5 Black Widows. I don't know how it'll grow outside here but we'll find out soon enough.
The bed is approximately 8x8. I amended it heavily with compost and used coffee grounds. Someday soon, my cover crop will grow up out of the straw and then it'll be really pretty.
The greenhouse is an 8x10 model. It locks, but in reality anybody that wants to get in there probably will. I made some modifications to account for air flow, it gets hot as fuck here in August.
I still have to irrigate. Right now I'm watering with the hose and that sucks, outside cannabis is a thirsty bitch. I have my blumats still but I'm planning on running a drip system like I am for my vegetables.
At any rate, I think October is going to be a good month for me!
I think I'm done with ILGM. Fortunately I have 5 plants already growing to throw outside in a couple weeks, but next time I'm going with a different breeder. Anybody else grow outside? Who's your preferred breeder?
I think it says "45" but is also a swastika
