He also crushed CapJunky, I kept catching chem and bubba notes and confusing myself. I'm smoking vanilla ice cream, itz cookies, how can I be getting this, hints of chemdog and bubba?

And well no shit, of course chemdog is in aliendog, that's the alien cookies..

Alien cookies x kush mints

N the kush mints is cause it's made w bubba

So yeah, vanilla ice cream up front, chemdog and bubba hiding out back like Jay and silent Bob covert

Most of the first 3 trays are rooted successfully.


I probably will order 6-cell clone trays, to hold the rooted and hardened off clones. To minimize space and so forth right now. The lids are too short really, so likely using the bottom halves typically.


Make a list of rooted clones, repeat cloning process with needed plants.


Flower has been watered, small / med in veg also, so now I catch up on watering the plants destined for flower


If a plant has been successfully cloned off with 2 rooted clones, and is destined for flower, I can go to town on it. So I have some family things to do and a new muffler to buy (damn Canadian road salt right?) But will be trying to catch up from dealing with the personal matters mentioned previously.


It's been a long road but I am gonna get there. Just need to clean the plants up, ensure pest knockback or eradication, root clones, then pull the trigger on a full 8x4 of stacked plants. I use a lot of trellises to effectively manage and support the canopy. Lowers get removed! Not just for light penetration reasons but pests absolutely take advantage of lower or light deprived foliage as mobile forward platforms so to speak. Defend your plants!


Overall. I keep working

I've been busy, still. But I managed to pick up 2 clone trays and 100 floraflex plugs.



I saw some 5 cell ones but they'd arrive in December so I ordered 10x 12 cell ones. Let's see how those do for storing rooted and hardened plants. Can bottom water each cultivar individually to avoid cross contamination.

Made some Baklava for the fam. I forgot you gotta let the pastry and syrup cool to pour over so it doesn't get soggy, but I can tell you guys, the grass fed butter was like heaven. Pretty sure it's all gone now and i made it 26 hours ago. They only saved a bit for the grandparents to have as a treat today. I took 3 small pieces from a corner for myself, and I ate them all before leaving the city, lol.

Not grow related but I'd love tips. As I mentioned I used grass fed butter. But I also made lemon honey sugar water with lemon zest and lemon juice, because I saw some recipes and read that they use lemon or orange blossom water in the middle east. One variation was more like dumplings filled with date paste, but orange blossom water sugar syrup and sesame seeds on top. I used pistachios and pecans and roasted and chopped them myself. I had a mixture of coarse double P nut mix, and then pistachio chopped into a fine crumble/dust.

Overall I learned I need to bake on a lower temperature for longer and pour the cool syrup on cool pastry. But everybody raved about it for sure. Grass fed butter combined with that subtle lemon flavor (infusion i made was a half small Mason jar, I don't overdo it.) Very heavenly. I've been experimenting with lemon zest for the most for my own type, and i gotta say it's working.

Also, I was very pleased to find out my shipment of seeds landed safely with homie in Ukraine. He said they crushed the DVD case but not the seeds, so there you go.

He unfortunately told me that they are forcibly mobilizing people and he is supporting his friend, who now has to defend Ukraine by force. It's a sad situation. I won't comment more on it here, but it must be horrific to have your country invaded like this...

Everyone please send good thoughts or any support you can. I have a friend who works on the logistics side of their defense supply chain, I know he is very busy! He and I talk about how it's going, but it's very sad. Even with the maximum amount of logistics and defense, sons and daughters are losing their life every day. It's like Niko Bellic said...

"War is when the young and stupid are tricked by the old and bitter into killing each other."

It is an oversimplification but ain't that the truth. It's never the leaders or the old powerful politicians at the front lines.
