It has been a losing battle here, what with only getting to weed out the males when I paddle out to the grow once a week, so it looks like I'll be getting seeded buds as usual. Pulled five males today, but instead of tossing them out, I intend to use them to make canna coconut oil, as I learnt to do from this forum.
My closeup bud shots are nowhere near the quality of the high-resolution photographs that I drool over in the outdoor grow forum, but hey, at least the narrow, Thai-like leaves, and airy popcorn buds are clear enough in these amateur pictures.
Water levels in the swamp are dropping as the last of the season's rains rumble through, and as I took these shots, a troop of monkeys lined up to take trapeze jumps high in the canopy, grunting their disapproval of my presence as they sat awaiting their turns to get airborne and soar, spread-eagle across the river to the next tree along their commute, where each landing shook loose showers of rain drops, cascading to the forest floor.
The last picture shows the hole in the undergrowth that I wade through, to reach the garden. The things I do, to stay out of the pokey.
