Hempcrete.
They won’t let me have the water for hemp.
Historical use only.
Get much hail?

hail? none
i am located in an area that has historically been orchards and veggie farms.... the kind of industry that would be ruined by devastating weather like that with any regularity

Hey Avi!


Your field is impressive! How many plants were we looking at?


Helped a son's buddy put in about 250 a couple of weeks ago. They were hoping to get a couple thousand in when they're done.


But, now NC is threatening to kill the program because the cops can't tell the difference between thc flowers and hemp flowers!


I could test it for 'em, lol!

ya NC is trying to shut down smokable hemp, not the entire program
SC already banned smokable sales, meaning you can have, use, give, produce smokable hemp in SC just can't sell it (this was done VIA the state DA)
NC just wants to END smokable entirely, making the sale of any raw material plant matter illegal from a farm to anyone other than a processor, and sales of any form of raw plant matter is illegal at the retail level

^ this is where it all started, seeds i produced last season made everything this season possible

here are pics from my family farm in North Carolina:

picture.php

^ "cherry sweeten" clones - a sativa leaning cherry which finishes later and hence spikes thc later so it's popular in NC, fluffier buds and longer node spacing make it better candidate for the southern humidity due to mildew and mold resistance, lets air thru the plant instead of shorter denser plants that will tend to have issues in the humid south.

^ field of my "wulf" genetics being grown for seed production

You still around? Any updates on your THC based garden? Nice work as usual.
thanks, bobbles, for the kind words
and yes, lets get back to what is important, the THC garden

im still growing in my big indoor bed, cranking out the dank;
picture.php

^this picture is from a previous run (not the one im about to show off)


it's a big deep bed of recycled no-till living soil, it has never let me down. it is full of worms, so much so that the worms require food above and beyond what the plants require, so heavy mulch layers have become the norm - usually hay or straw, more recently wood chips. Availability of wood chips near me tend to be mostly pine; however, recently i have been lucky enough to get some ramial chips of cottonwood, elm, aspen, russian olive and whatever else is unlucky enough to grow in local easements.
worms love these mulch layers, it is not unusual for my worms to consume a 3 -5 inch deep layer of mulch in a 90 day grow cycle, requiring more to be added for the next run.

^canopy stretch
the taller plants around the outside are NOT in the bed, those are on "benches" that flank the bed, they are designed for experimental plants, pheno hunts, and isolated experiments - these plants can be removed from the room if something goes wrong or unusual, such as a hermaphrodite on a tester plant or a late (or very fast) finishing variety.

^first swell on the baby buds....

picture.php

^^ buds forming
sadly you can see the outside plants, on the benches, are fading early, way too early. also unfortunately, this plant showing early fade is GMO, a long flowering variety. i did the best i could to spoon feed these ladies thru the run... the bed never shows these early fades because it never seems to run low on fertilizer (altho i'm sure it needs some micro-nutrient balancing).

^swell time

^buds of Koffee - smells like glue to me...

^^ "the lean"
3 layers of trellis net and i still get buds leaning.... can't complain, all that resin weighing them down...
you can see the GMO in the back, they are just starting to swell when the rest of the room is well on it's way toward ripening, 82 days is what most of my peeps consider a proper time to finish GMO at, i didn't get that far along, altho got close...

Thw whole room came down between days 74 and 77

^ post harvest
after this harvest i dug my bed and turned the soil, the first time i have done so in 3 and 1/2 years since starting this bed of soil...
i guess it is no longer NO-till... did i just lose heady points?

Do you get enough irrigation water there? It is very dry here, but I am getting a longer growing season.
