im sure it WILL happen; just hasn't been a reality for hemp farmers for the past couple seasons
now that dea has put a lid on the CBD thing hopefully there will come SOME option for a co processing facility.
if you can find it gano, post a link to that video here, ty

I think the search I did was, growing hemp, or farming hemp, or colorado hemp farming, and it popped up on the first page

for sure, that's a nice optimistic piece from 2015
we need a processing facility that's like 10k that size to support a real hemp farming industry in co
soon..... but not yet

Maybe more then one, several. there would need to be several locations across the state. Then there would be location closer to state lines that would see a boom from Ag area's on the other side of the state lines, but alias that wont happen until Federal prohibitions are lifted, the whole crossing state lines and all.

ya... i'm still considering doing hemp this upcoming season, debatable because i don't want to spread myself too thin and really want to focus on outdoor THC laden cannabis this year in the "perimeter of sanity" privacy fence-line.

until then...

^ kiddie pool really full canopy, hoping to get some impressive swell and finally a good harvest out of one of these tents


picture.php

^ seriously seeded buds
looks like there are going to be many many seeds of these sour bubble crosses

^ breeding tent
purple bud on left is purple pheno of pck x dieselrella ("purple pakistani diesel")
greener bud on left is green pheno of pck x dieselrella
they smell differnt but structure is nearly the same
i think behind them (more out of focus) is a jenny kush plant

finally:

^^ finished final trim of lime cookies bubba
damn tasty smoke, all sorts of rasberry bluberry and fruity bubba kush earthy muskiness....
certainly one of our favors

I just had an odd thought about spider mites! You know how the can quickly become resistant to stuff. You know that they breed mice (and other lab animals) in labs to breed true for diseases. What if you breed spider mites to be very deficient in the area's their "wild" cousins adapted to. So you go and wipe out all the resident adult population of mites and introduce the lab breed mites that are already adults. The lab breed males breed with the "resident young" females. You can affect the mites population by making the sensitive to thing which can help to wipe out an infestation.

in my perfect future instead of cannabis being prohibited by law spider mites and poison ivy will be illicit

nice work Miles! the color on the lime cookies is unreal. I'll smoke one to that beauty...
thanks WT

this lil room is getting off the ground as well:

Everything is looking on point around here! I made some smart pots last year out of chicken wire, landscape fabric and staples lol. They actually turned out fairly decent and we're pretty cheap and easy to make. I'm sure they are still in good enough condition to be used next season if I wanted too

Just thought I'd throw that out there because of the discussion you and who dat is were having about your containers. I wanted to try using thick felt but the landscape fabric was super cheap and convenient

good call on the landscape fabric, zack, holds shape better than felt & reduces evap & dryout better in arid climates

buncha beans hitting the dirt:
"P-bud" (Paonia Paralyzer) x Spaceship
GG4 x Dank Zappa
Sour Dubb x Dank Zappa
ECSD x Deep Chunk
(PCK X Nepal Indica) x Hindu Kush
Giganticus Indicus
Norcal Catpiss x Moontang

copy&paste job from the scattered sermons breeding thread:

total list of sour bubble pollinated females, i took notes on their smell and structure, growth patterns and all that jazz;
here is the cliffs notes:
ox f2 - short stanky bubba sweet earthy
jenny kush - tall sweet creamy like golden triangle or dairy queen
sour raskal (sappy sour x raskal berries) - short brnachy big calyx, earthy sweet dirt
lucky charms x black lime reserve #1 - branchy stretchy & tall, greasy spoiled milk
elmers glue fire cookies f2 - not branchy, not stretchy, sweet fruity kush earthy
Lucky charms x black lime reserve #2 - small/med buds lanky, gluebreathy cantalopey kushy
white dawg x long valley royal kush - big buds medium stretch, SUPER stanky sour d & OGK , greasey as hell
Deep Chunk - short stout, not branchy, no stretch fast finish, smells like paste or dough hints of skunk cabbage
Daywrecker Headband x Cacoon #2 - viney, stretchy, small/med, nasty skunk cabbage like green funky
Daywrecker Headband x Cacoon #1 - less stretch, medium buds, SWEET stanky like otis og & dairy queen
PCK x Dieselrella #2 - green pheno, short stocky big buds, smells sweet like fruity candy & melons
PCK x dieselrella #1 - purple pheno, short stocky big buds, identical structure as greenpheno, stanks like nasty green skunk cabbage funk
R-KEIM - stretchy tall sativa, lanky buds sativa structure, smells like ms. universe / des*tar bx rotten fruit hot garbage
Miles Bubba Kush from seed - short slow veg, small buds, greasey loud sour smells kinda like gg4

i'm sure some of these smells will progress and change as the plants mature and finish, so i'll be sure to update the notes (in my notebook, maybe not online here) of any big changes in smells of moms

also did a slew of usual suspects in the sour bubble pollination:
catpiss moontang
catpiss
24k white
trapper creek
Lime Cookies Bubba
Daywrecker headband
white 99
miles bubba kush clone (hybrid type pheno)
skunk91 va
sour dubb (not sure if seeds formed on the lil sour dubb clone i popped... hopefully at least a couple)

next run is primed;
ready to flip, im going to compact all the pollinated moms into one half of the vert bare bulb breeding tent and let them finished a lil crammed together, and on the other side i'll start the next pollination.... cramming the runs in as close as i can to avoid having pollen dropping anywhere while my main room is blooming

next run is using stardawg ix male (thanks WDI!), I decided to use him because i could easily pull a bunch of clones off him and he was getting tall and unruly

stardawg ix is primed to pollinate the following females:
24k white
dosidos
cornbread
white 99
trapper creek
nightmare cookies
blue power
daywrecker headand
white dawg x long valley royal kush ("white vallye royal kush")
Canna-Tsu x GG4
the 3
Jenny Kush
Deep Chunk
Sour raskal
the remedy x good medicine ("Rx")
lime cookies bubba
gg4
mt trogger bx ox
maybe a sour dubb maybe a sk91VA

call it "a beginning" :D

i'm not sure where/how is the best (or simplest/most efficient) way to market beans... all ears and open to ideas

been smoking on the lime cookies bubba, flavor is amazing like berry jam kush
special ogk haze is all lemony and pine ogk flavors with some kind of sweet hints
stinky pheno of catpiss elmers glue fire cookies is very stony and smells like sourd/cookies smoke has hints of "glue-lite"
sour tsunami x scotts og is all sorts of sour green coffee kush flavor and hits like a ton of bricks

the trapper creek and catpiss moontang flavors are still maturing; less flavorful joints but i think they just need more time in the jars

a little late, but hemp farmers in PA and KY are growing mostly for seed and fiber with a relatively small amount of acreage devoted to sinsemilla CBD crop.

those lime cookies flowers wow! great bag appeal! sounds like the smell and flavor back it up.

i feel like ecsd x dc is an easy winner :biggrin:

Yea ..I been wondering the same.....seems almost every time im at the local dispo someone comes in and buys up a bunch of beans. The ones they sell are well packaged second party items that are all knockoffs (Black domina..etc). A couple of my buddys work there and have said I should talk to their buyer about getting some packs in. I know there will be lots more to it than that, but it did light a fire
