Nothing like the mountains., and some lavender and Pres OG to go with it. Crushing those hoop houses. Your piece of pie is beautiful man. We just purchased 1.6 acres in the mountains here in Sonoma, funny thing is it has 3 apple trees on the property and the property is shaped like a piece of pie. Heaven!

Thanks for stopping by BrainSellz! That sounds awesome, i want some apple trees. I was incredibly lucky to find this 80 acre parcel 4 years ago. Very lucky. Any of you landowners out there know just how special of a feeling it is....

Everybody please be safe out there. Just drove through town (very small, no stoplights) and saw a bunch of cops gearing up for a raid. It has to be either a tweeker lab or grow ranch. Be careful folks! Just a reminder this shit is real.
 
Hey Jbarsk8, great job so far man! Have you thought about doing hugelkultur in the future? It really is some good stuff, definitely should look into it :p

jbarsk8, you all good? That group of cops didn't raid you did they?

How are the plants doing after the colder weather? I feel like I didn't cut back my water enough, and they were too wet for a couple days. Some deficiencies because of it.

Thanks for looking out FF, i appreciate that! I have one plant that is showing some signs of what looks like over water but i just dont see how that is possible. She was only getting 15 gallons or so every 5 days. Keeping a close eye on her, the others havent seemed to miss a beat. Id say you are a good 10 degrees cooler than me give or take. I hit down to 47 for a low over the cool snap.

Time is flying. I cant believe the solstice is almost here. I ended up doing some backpacking up in the Emigrant Wilderness for a few days. It was a great change of pace !!

Picture of perfect health. Looking lovely.

How do you like that 5 gallon micro sprayer? I bought the 2 gal Hudson cause it's 110v, but now I regret not buying the 5 gallon gas powered. I have to refill too many times with the 2 gallon sprayer.

Hey there FF, thank you! The stihl sprayer is the single best tool i have in my garden. I still have to refill a few times to spray down these monsters but it goes pretty darn quick compared to my other options.
 
this is the time where i like to take the top foot of the plant off, clean up the bottoms and stand back for a global growth explosion. lookin good.

I have considered doing this on a % of my plants because of advice from some others. I have never trained or topped full season outdoor, but I keep hearing from others that I should.

Care to explain why you recommend it? Just more lateral growth or does it allow roots to set and become larger than the plant mass?
