BonsaiGrower's Garden

[BonsaiGrower]

Hey Folks

Someday Joe, for sure.

Here's what's goin on now.

In the 150 Tent we have some SSxK on Day 2



right behind you in the prep area we have 2 more lovely SSxK getting trained for the 430w cab.



Then just to your right we have some clones I'm getting ready for the "bonsai container grow" I'm going to do, and few OB1's as back up because the OB1 and OB1.2 on the right are barely hangin on after the safer's treatment.



and to the right of that we have the unsexed OB1 and OB1.2 lovely's followed by the SSxK Moms, a LUI I'll be using for the "bonsai container grow" and 3 different pheno's of LUI at the back.



and finally....DOH!
One of them didn't like the Safer's.....at all



The Burmesse didn't make it Suga. ...my bad, not yours. But now that I've got my garden in check as far as pets are concerned. I'll get these OB1's figured out and give your next beans a better go.

That's it for today folks. Are we havin fun yet?

Cheers Y'all
BG

Hey BG, getting ready for another go, I'll be watching again ...

RIP Burmesse

Love the training on that second container man! What is the strain in the other one? SSxK?

Take care man...

The Burmesse didn't make it Suga. ......BG

oh well I'm still finding seeds in the buds as I smoke (found one today!) so someday I'll have some more for you

I still have the ob1 indie back crossed to another burmese male (OB2) that I never pulled the seeds out of the buds - just jarred 'em up and haven't gotten to them yet... it'll be a while too that was the second run of the ob1 indie that I backed to the burmese, and I've just barely dented the first round of the ob1 indie.... oh what problems I have

anyways the ss x k is looking good, I've never grown a kush as far as I know but they sure seem to be the rage right now - looks really lush and healthy - do you have one or two phenos in there?

[BonsaiGrower]

Hey BR...yes I'm excited for this run. Super Skunk x Kush. Stick around...it's new to me too.

Hey Suga...I trust you had a great weekend. ....
yes very sad news indeed but alas with friends like you ....someday...jeez ya know?..I'm kinda hearin that alot today around here...lol. I promise to do better with the others I have Suga. I'll earn my keep before someday comes. Good to know there's some oysters in your nugs. I hear ya about all the rage being the Kush hype...lol..I couldn't care less...and in fact my buddy that gave me the clones chuckled when he was trying to give me the history of the strain...he says...it Super Skunk x with...ummm....Kush I think I remember?...I laughed hard. it made total sense and if you knew this friendly guerilla grower you'd laugh too. He picked up the strain based on how it would grow and what it would do...what's in a name right? I couldn't care really about all the names...I'm just glad they aren't named like electronics equipment. (ex. GHX9000) easier to remember SSxK

am I high?...I just smoked a tester from the harvest...holy...I've been typing here like IUTG and backspacing every second word... I better stop here

Thanks for checkin in BR and Suga

Peace to everyone hangin back there.
BG

edit...lol....guess I am high...yes Suga I have just the one pheno of the SSxK. Two moms same pheno. In the 150 Tent I have 3 plants LST and in the new bin as you can see I have 2 plants eventual Scrog...might stay as just LST...really woody stems. taking clones the scissors make a snap sound. Need a saw for anything over an inch I bet....we'll see....stinks in veg...even the clones. ...anyone watching....you'll need a full scrubber.

 

[sugabear_II]

yeah what's in a name - good smoke is good smoke - just vaped some ob1 sativa - oooh I'm high - talk about tough typin times...

 

[BonsaiGrower]

It's all good my friend...just as long as we keep it green. What an amazing hobby. And the joy of this to me is kinda like how a mechanic never works on his own car. If I did this for a job I might get bored of it and stop enjoying it so much but since it's a hobby, I can't wait to get home. When I'm out and about I see things differently. I'll see a cabinet or wardrobe with shelves just a certain way and I can't help but see a sea of green in it....lol. I'm thinkin someday maybe I'll install a model railroad in the cabinet....nah wait a second...now I'm gettin out of control.....

model train sog - continuesly moving train of 4" planters chugga chugga chugga chugga

holy shit I'm more baked then I was before as I just smoked some ice and ob1 sat - also just started a fresh batch of 151 tincture with around 8 grams of trainwreck and 5 oz of rum. mix and let sit. A tiny little bit does me real nice for bedtime. like 1/3 of a shot glass. I get 3 nights enjoyment followed by good sleep from 1 oz of tincture.

yeah our hoby is soo much fun - I'm really gonna miss it when I take a break, but honestly I won't need weed for a while - I wish it was legal so I could just grow for the joy of growing and give it away.

See I got addicted to trying new strains and I'm happy now as I have a bunch in the stash. Right now I have a good amount of 8 different strains to enjoy; burmese, trainwreck, ob1 indie, ob1 sativa, grapefruit, ice, bluethunder, and oregon90. Plus a small quantity of nl x c99 and blue sat x jack herer(don't know why I'm saving it - wasn't that good...)

But right now even though I have oodles of tastie buds I still want to grow more strains that I haven't tried - just to try them - it's madness I tell you madness

Oh I see, it was the spray.... that makes more sense I guess.... Is that safe to smoke?..... Insecticide?

Looks like the chest is workin out well! Great shots!

Sugabear--Whatever happened to just getting high? Madness!

So hows the smell inside and out bonsai? Holdin up well?

If you had a train set carting around yer plants, then you wouldn't need any fans! Genioupst...

 

[BonsaiGrower]

arrrgh...just had a post typed out and the screen refreshed all on it's own...dag nabbit.

I'll try again.

It's not madness Suga. Great strains. You won't stop completly I bet. keep a small cab going just for fun strains. Like you say we can always just give it away. I gave some to my friends mom last month...she's a kemo patient. What an amazing feeling to get a call the next day saying how his mom had a big dinner and a good night sleep for the first time since starting Kemo....oh what a feeling.

I'm gonna try that tincture recipe sometime...someday...lol

Pipeline....hey my friend...Yes it was the concentrate I dilluted for foliar. only the one shot glass and one of my house plants didn't like it. (Irish White Clover) It burned the odd leaf here and there but no biggie.

The Drying trunk is working perfect so far. No smell outside. Smell inside is LUI not Ceder (very cool) It took 4.5 days for the tester buds to be ready for smoking. I'd say that's just about right as a full trunk will take about 7-10 days. I'm going to try a few things as well...like leave them hanging in the trunk for a day with the fan off. kinda like the paper bag technique. If they moisten back up after 7-10 days, then I'll turn the fan back on for a day and repeat. when they are ready for a jar, in they go.

Peace y'all....after typing this twice I hope I git to the questions....lol

oh and pipeline..man sorry I'm not paying attention...the Safer's claims it's safe for edibles right up to harvest. Says to wash fruit but the way I read it was...it's organic based and safe, if you use it right up to harvest then wash fruit. I sprayed everything in veg hardcore and sprayed down the soil in the 150 tent. As I tryed to spray the soil in the shot glasses I got the buds too. It burned a little here and there on the plants in veg but not too bad. I clipped the burnt leaf off and things look fine. I hear that pests can become immune to this stuff and Neem but I dunno...they must have bad pests or huge grows. I wiped my pests out over night. and only 1 shot glass died and one house plant looks a little rough.

hope that helps

Here ya go Bonsai found out its a pyrethrin:
----------------------------------------
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyrethrin

The pyrethrins are contained in the seed cases of the perennial plant pyrethrum (Chrysanthemum cinerariaefolium), which is grown commercially to supply the insecticide. Pyrethrins are neurotoxins that attack the nervous systems of all insects. When present in amounts not fatal to insects, they still appear to have an insect repellent effect. They are harmful to fish, but are far less toxic to mammals and birds than many synthetic insecticides. They are non-persistent, being biodegradable, and also break down easily on exposure to light or oxygen. They are considered to be amongst the safest insecticides for use around food. For humans, pyrethrin is known to irritate eyes, skin, and respiratory systems. It is particularly harmful to aquatic life.

Hey Folks.

Zeus...thanks man.. glad I inspire some of you folks...it's only fair since I was inspured by everyone at IC. Can't wait to see your harvest too man.

JJ ...right on...glad you made it around...ya sorry it's a bit of a secret...ya know the rules..no tell, no smell, no sell...guess you got caught in the no tell part..lol Glad your here now man. I've seen ya around..welcome welcome.

Pipeline yes thank you...hmmm thought I already said Pyrethrin...my bad...ya it's based on that shit. I wouldn't want to eat the stuff but I'm sure if it was used on the soil and veg growth then all is fine. I only sprayed the buds in my 150 tent just to be sure. I wouldn't suggest spraying buds at any time really but sometimes drastic measures are in order ya know?

K thanks everyone for checkin out my garden...if everyone can walk single file I'll bring you up to show you the 430 cab. Take it easy Dog...everyone will get a chance...hey can someone grab the magnifying glass? We may need it today.

ahh here we are....smells delicious...kinda fruity/citrus fuel, tickles the nose.



The bin on the right is just about ready.





Starting to show her true colours and fill out with fox tails.






Some of the different phenos are showing interesting colour and trichs




and a peak at things to come from the bin on the left. I let this one stretch too far but it's going to produce some fairly heavy Cola. I've already had to add some bamboo and a ring of bonsai wire to hold things in.





Trichs have just started to change to amber in the one bin and I'm hoping it'll be ready in a few days. We'll see.

Drying trunk update......Build one!!!!!!! It rocks!!! what else can I say...think I did good with that one.

Did I forget anything?...hope this updates with IC going through a few issues last few days. understandable I suppose. Thanks ICMag

Peace Y'all....am I boring you?...do you ever get sick of the same strain being grown?...I dunno...I'm trying a bunch of different techniques with each strain...low scrog, high scrog, High LST, gonna try a low LST with SSxK ...what ya think?...should I do different diaries for different strains or maybe just update my signature to say what's flowering and what page it starts?

remember...I'm still a newb with forums and all this stuff. Yes I have a ton of posts but I hang in the toker's den alot with a bunch of cool peeps I'd really like to smoke up someday.

Peace again
