Hey guys! Thanks for checking in, things are getting large for sure! I know I'm due for an update, will see if there's room for me to stick my arm in there with a camera tomorrow......
I was gonna try to squeeze in here but I guess I'll have to sit outside the greenhouse and look in. Can't wait to see the update, that's gonna be some crazy shit. K+ when I can.
Howdy all!!! First, so sorry for the month delay, chores have really been getting the best of me. All is going strong here, the greenhouse proved a bit small for the job though! Next year baby.......bigger. First off, as you know by now I'm also proud of the yard flowers so here goes some shots of what's blooming now:
Black Eyed Susan, Russian Sage, Sunset Hyssop
Good Ole' Calendula
Mixes Zinnies
Elephant Head Amaranth
OK- Sorry to make you suffer through those shots! I know these are the ones we really like!!!
A few notes on these pictures: It is impossible to get angles in there that show more than 3 plants at a time. Most of them are between 8-9 feet tall and grown close together, I knew I'd compromise some side lighting when this project was put together. I have trimmed an enormous amount of branching from below the canopy and every plant has been topped and tied down numerous times. I'm happy to answer any specific questions you have as well. I am feeding once a week with Age Old Bloom. Twice a week with my Compost Tea to which I also add High P Bat Guano. Once a week DEEP watering and a bit of shallow "touch-up" watering here and there. You'll also see that my one "L J" plant which never truly went back to veg has decided to fully flower, definitely hit the yield hard for which this plant is capable but it is TOP NOTCH and will be nice to get outta there and let some more light in to the sides of her neighboring K1, Burmese, and BlueHash......enjoy the pics folks!!!

Pink Bush in the lower right, BlueHash in middle....
K1 is tall left, BlueHash in foreground, Burmese is to the right....
dayum yo they look so beautiful ,i wish i could do it up outside like that
i have a question bro,in the pics you can clearly see that one of them strains is well beyond all the others as far as how far along she is in flower.im assuming that you put them all out at the same time and that shes way faster so i would like to know what strain that is LOL shes a fast mf it looks like yo...
thanks in advance.peace-T-
Hey T- Thanks for dropping in bro and I am thinking the same thing about her. All seeds were started Feb 15 and vegged for one month indoors, then sexed and put in the Greenhouse May 15, plenty of time to have them all vegging again by that point. The gal we're talking about is known as "L J", a cali cross my friend stablized here in the Rockies. Well, she never truly vegged and kinda grew, stretched, and threw flowers all summer until 30 days ago when she went full on flower and you see the results. Anyway----I made beans and have a number of her sisters installed in a couple other grows around here and my my my is she ever an early keeper. Those colas in my pics are outstanding in the quality department. I have also finished a couple inside and they are all on the fuel/sour line of odor and taste while finishing in the day 50-55 range believe it or not....
I have a bunch of testing to do with her next year (outside) now that I am getting familiar with her desire to trigger so easy.....stay tuned!!! I was also recently gifted an early variety out of Mendo that has been worked on for many many years and shows extreme promise. We'll call her EBG for now and I've never seen such quality in an early varietal....stay tuned on her too! Also gifted pollen from a male of that same strain and many beans will be made with all my personal varieties...high hopes for her!
Wish I had more space so I could test an entire greenhouse with Early stuff while still doing full season plants, maybe in the years to come....
