Well I'm way behind the curve on things here at the Farm. Life keeps getting in the way, with too many to-do items getting backed up and new problems springing up here and there coupled with delays.
PCK x KC and Violeta Fem went into the green house (small 8x8 commercial one) and the next day I find the golfers had jumped in like it was the public pool and started right after the roots on both:
So now I'm digging all the soil (organic compost and goat manure) out of this green house and sealing off their access with concrete wall board and concrete steal mesh in the bottom, then shoveling all that soil back in there.
In the mean time we have been working off and on with the expansion of my main green house. It started out as a collection of free glass (off of craiglist) and recycled lumber and materials that cost $75, we've put an additional $250 in new roofing and fasteners and collected some more free glass even a sliding glass door w/frame to double the size of the green house and weatherize it better for those longer flowering sativas to be allowed to finish.
Thanks Yoss, but eh...my wife is doing all the construction. I've thrown some stain up on the lumber but she put it all there. She is really handy that way as she just finished building the two story goat barn.
We finished the green house and things are starting to progress here at Liberty Ridge.
Here is the zamaldelica 09 clone that I originally thought was from the malawi pheno but is more the thai pheno, the mother which I've sampled the top of is all black pepper and is such an intense high like none of the other phenos have taken me to. So this one is getting the premium spot on the screen of green, I hope it stretches like the cross I had there last year.
And here is the top of zamaldelica F2 01 that I found had got so heavy that without any support folded down on me last night, so I harvested it for a sample at 11weeks, still has plenty of fresh pistils and has thrown some nanners tempting me into trying to make some fems out of her.
high shooters,
well you have to wait until you see some flowers before you can identify them...
nice setup und greenhouse you have!
it can't go wrong ;-)

Here is a shot looking down at Liberty Ridge Farms from the much taller ridge back behind us.
We like to take breaks from farming, and go rippin' through the clear cuts the State does, each one brings a whole new set of vistas normally hidden by the rain forest.
Beautiful landscape and great job with the greenhouses Shooters
What a lovely place to enjoy nature and to grow good genetics.
The ACE Mix looks like an Orient Express and the tropical mix is probably a Guatemala, but still too early to fully confirm. Let's see how they develop.
Thank you Dubi, for the possible identity of those two, they are both in the flower room indoors and we will see what kind of bud structure they have. I took a clone of each in case they are of something unique. Took clones of the PCK x KC and Violeta fem since they both needed topping to keep 'em short enough for the small green house.
Great thread Shooter!! I like your choices too..very much. What happened with the Lionheart f2's? I see you made a Zamaldeca x LH x zamaldeca. thanks brother.
Tell your wife she did a great job on the greenhouse. does she work on cars too? I do most of the auto work at our place..peace
Thanks Buddle! and I'll let her know, she does do great work but the cars are typically my domain not that she doesn't know how, all the tools for that are in my shop, hers is for wood working and canning.
Here is a gopro pic of the Goat barn she built using recycled materials from her parents old barn that was torn down. She did all of this by herself.
