Wow, yeah much of the US is experiencing above average temps and will be this way for another couple weeks. Looks like they are growing fast! They don't need that much sun anyway. Wonder if there is much difference from fall harvest vs late winter harvest in warmer climates.

Photoperiod is short and temps are cooler on average. Wonder how that translates to the resin's terpenes and potency.

Do you smoke too or just use turn it all into kief for the oil taken orally? I recommend smoke testing at least to determine potency. :smoke:

Lung testing says it is virtually the same strength as the summer runs and I've long ceased to keep separate and identified...

Deuteronomy 32:43 NKJV

“Rejoice, O Gentiles, with His [j]people;
For He will avenge the blood of His servants,
And render vengeance to His adversaries;
He will provide atonement for His land and His people.”



Cool Christmas celebration! Peace on Earth, goodwill to all men, let all the angels of God worship Him. :smoke:

Thats great, keep them harvesting year round then! I don't keep mine separate very well either. Smell test will tell you which is which. :smoke:

That plastic pipe buried alongside the plant will ensure that the water goes straight to the lowest roots. I once used a similar idea for an outdoor guerrilla grow in which I jammed wide plastic funnels into the ground a foot uphill from each plant as the dry season bit harder. Those funnels typically took a couple of days to drain into the soil and I covered them with dry branches so the grow didn't stand out from the background thicket.

Wicking cups.

They are actually large home-built SIPs (self-irrigating planters) They have a large water reservoir in the base.. This gets a layer of perlite in the cups and over the baseplate.

I took another round of clones from the just transplanted regular seedlings and brought them along on the latest road trip up the hill.

Changed things up this time. I jammed the scissor tip down the hole and cut the cubes and held them open while laying the gel dipped cutting in the trench. This should leave the cloning gel where it belongs rather than getting scrubbed off as the shaft is pushed into the rockwool. The plastic 9 packs hold them closed tightly. Took about as long as packing the hole top with wool scraps like I've been doing.
