during this past winter i have been doing a lot of ice-hash, bho and drysieving...
well after keeping it separetly in the beginning i kind of decided itd be tastier to just mix it all together.. so now i got about 30 grams of very melty and bubbly and sticky and mouldable hash for this summer...
this a tiny chunk.. the rest is in the freezer
a while back i grabbed my father in laws old wedding cigar box.. since he doesnt smoke anyway...
nice for keeping rolled spliffs and other gear in...
"Pine Tar Kush"- A relatively unworked Pakistani inbred line. Lime green pine/skunk, one of my heavier yielding pure indicas. A very nice smoke of average potency with a rich flavor & chatty high. Some folk say it taste just like juicy fruit gum. Outdoors it finishes the second week of October, indoors about 60 days.
hehe that amount of spliffs is ok for me for a few days i like to roll a bunch when i get a moment over, that way i can just light a spliff without stopping to work when im a inspiratioal mood
i think i smoke about a spliff every 2-3 hours, so normally that means i dont smoke many more than 6-7 spliffs a day, while im not having a visit or such then i easilly loose controll hehe
hehe.. anyway latelly i got this other habbit of making enormous bong mixes that take days to finish also.. i guess its fun to grab a bunch of big nugs and just chop it all down to little chunks with a scissor.
one thing is for sure.. i smoke too much hehe lifes good
ah darn.. the blockberry i had revegging since this past autumn, well.. i finally got a bunch of clones going of her,,, and now WTF i see the revegged mom thats in flowering is spitting out nanners in the last weeks of flowering,,. i picked off about 8 nanners then i gave up and harvested her, she could have gone an other week or so, but that would only benefit the lowest nugs,,
its a really nice, aromatic and well yielding pheno.. next round i will try to achieve an even harder trimming to make sure the tips that will produce are even less long than this round. one reason for nanners is the fact the main kolas and tops of the nugs/branches are all orange hairs - BUT the lower part still has a lot of white hairs.. so waiting for them over-matures the tips and the lack of light in the lower regions of the SOG doesnt alove the nugs to finish of well.. so next round - an even more extreme trimming in early flowering.
if the blockberry keeps giving nanners i guess she has to go.
also today i harvested 2 big clones of SSH x PTK, there is still one more big one finishing of.. an other 2 weeks or so and it will look good
the SweetnSour Diesel and DIVA-G x LP got a bit longer before harvest. im really liking the looks of the Diva-G x lp .. its a special one
the BIG SSH x LP has been moved to right under the light.. its started flowering and now i feel confident i will have nugs of her this years vacations..
Awesomes pics and info Bone, thank you very much amigo.
Pictures likes the Jaggen and those hash-mix samples makes my mouth watering!!!
It´s really nice take a walk for this corner with a spliff to see this wonderful things....
after a few days of dry weather and such.. a test nug of the blockberry was ready to get smoked, a tiny bit sticky still, but thats normal.. anyway it smoked well, and gave a extremelly sweet after-taste, one of the strongest honey like experiences i have had with bud. this bud is a keeper even though she got a few nanners late on in flower.. the effect of the nug was really potent, very buzzy and nice. gonna be nice to try in a week or so when its completelly dry
very resinous, chunky nugs and aromatic, sweet and fragrant. a nice keeper.. just got to watch it a bit the last days..
looks like they are enjoying the early spring sun!
here in the grow room i got it a bit buzy myself as usual when i got a lot of plants in veg, very quickly and allways sooner than i expect, i get out of space. luckilly enough in a couple of days, max a week, i will put a whole bunch to flower at once. im jsut waiting for 3 big old plants to finish off flowering, and i will do a little bit of remodeling in the flowering room. i built benches to act like shelfs to go on along 3 sides of the grow room, this way i can flower plants earlier, and when i only got big plants - i will jsut take the benches out.
also i want to take time to spray down all plants in veg with spidermite poison, to prepare them for the warmer summer months, when any pest becomes a problem in no time. the spraying im going to do before i put them to flower.
next 3 plants to get ready for harvest are one SweetnSour Diesel, one SSH x PTK and one and most likelly the last DIVA-G x LP.
the DIVA-G x LP pheno i kept for a second round is very resinous, and a nice smoke, but the extremelly low yield kind of doesnt make up for it. so ill plant the rest i got of those seeds later this year to look for an other pheno also i think i got some KARMATRAIN #1 X LOVEPOTION left...
also its soon time to plant a few of the SSHxPTK / SSHxLP i made last year, to check them out. im just going to give it a month or so, i need to get space first
today was watering day... 40 liters for the flowering room and an other 40 for the veg-area. i had to transplant a few plants so there was extra much water use today,..
i can see a hectic summer infront of me.. this is gonna be exersize in the long run. 4 hours of work...
thats hand watering around 80 plants or so...
the 3 last plants hanging on in late flowering will be cut this weekend most likelly... time to make space for a bunch of new girls,.. all transplanted today and ready to flower, got 9 or so to move over...
im finishing of a work project thats been takin particularly much time this week, and soon ill get time to put in the benches i built for the elevated ledges in the grow room.
it all sounds a bit messy i bet - but i will post some pics when done..
been a long day in the growarea today... harvested 3 plants, transplanted a bunch and made a whole lot a clones... still my friends are stressing me for clones for their outdoors for this year - but im not falling for the preassure even if they pay, as they do, i still give priority to my own grow. maintenace of several moms, clones of them in several different stages of veg etc takes time and their clones come in 2nd hand.
honestly i think for next year i will expand the clone area so that every body will be happy. after all, its for the comunity - but as i got my setup now, its just pushing the spaces to the maximum. i can hardly getin there to water.
today i also finally sprayed all plants in flowering (they are just a few weeks in) and the plants in veg too. actually the veg part got several liters of misting over it.
now i hope the mites wont get possibility to come back during summer..
i set up the benches in the flowering room today also, it was messy to do without taking out too many plants but it finally got done. tomorow i will move the recently sprayed plants from veg over to the new ledges.
still the veg area is over crowded and i made a deal with my gf to move the biggest plants up to a room in the house - and i will keep them vegging with sunlight for a few months. this will save space...
i just hope the room i will be able to use has enough light to give nice results.
still got the diva-G x LP to prune and cut up and put to dry... drying room is really stinky this time - sweet and sour diesel, SSH x PTK and the Diva-G x lp.....
