No worry guys, all is fine...
I have also other "work" to do... lol
I don't have a good camera at the moment.
I just made a short clip with my mobile phone...
The plants are doïng great!! The weather gods have been good to us this year.
In a couple of days it's full moon and I will start to cut the Purple Princess.
The others are flowering nicely. The Purple Peace Nepalese is the fastest..
By the way, it came out Purple!!
I got a little male Bubbakush/Cheesel to pollinate the Purple Peace Nepalese...
More on this Bubbakush later...
I managed tonight to take some pictures with my old Olympus that is not working well.
The Purple (green) Princess is doïng very well.
She looks and smells like a Silverhaze... The buds are grey/silverwhite...
I brought them inside because the forecast for tomorrow is 100% rain and I like to avoid mold as much as possible!!
I am doubting to harvest them with full moon coming friday.
Because there are a lot of red hairs, but she is still producing new white hairs and I can still see and feel them swollowing every day.
I can hardly wait to taste that sweet smoke!
The Purple Peace Nepalese is making nice flowers also and starts to smell mango sweet.
She is realy turning purple and I hope I can manage to make some "clearer" pictures tomorrow.
Today was rainy and strong wind was blowing.
The toilet bowl was blowen over and is broken.
I left the Purple Princess in front of the window.
The Purple Peace Nepalese is waving in the wind and nicely budding.
Forecast for this weekend is rain and 17 degrees, but next week it will be 25 again and sunny!! Just a couple of days patience...
Busy times. Next month the governement will present their new drugpolicies...
We jut came out with a DVD of the Cannabis Tribunal.
They are gonna be spread around to a lot of politicians, health care and social workers.
Next week we come together with all the parties...
Elmanito if you like to come let me know if you come to to the VOC meeting (ot's in The Hague this time) then I will send you the details and agenda and bring your T-shirt... :>)
Today a lot of rain and wind but at the end of the day the sun came out and I putted all the ladies at the terrace again.
The Purple Princess needs to be harvest soon.
I looked back on my log and find out she is flowering already 9 weeks!
But as long the sun is shining and no sign of mold I let the ladies swet a little more.... :>)
The Purple Peace Nepalese is flowering nicely and making nice buds.
She is purple, but not like the mother Purple Peace.
The bottom of the flower is purple, but the hairs are white.
I putted the male Bubbakush/Cheesel male at the middle of the Purple Peace Nepalese.
It's a nice male and you can realy see the male is getting horny and swollen up in the middle of the PPN. It's just one bunch of male flowers, but very effective!!
Thank to the Dutch Ganja Ferry!!
I realy hope he pollinates the PPN and that the weather will be better soon.
Amazing in 13 day fall is falling in... lol and the sunflower jus came to the ultimate flowering.
It realy looks like a race between the sunflower and the PPN...
Forecast after tomorrow: sunny and above 20 degrees again and dry!!
Tomorrow sunny in the afternoon, so I putted the Purple Princess idoor to safe them from the rain tonight and tomorrow morning to avoid mold.
The living is smelling sweet... :>)
Talking about smelling sweet... Sweet dreams world...
When I woke up in the morning I found out that one of the 4 big branches of the PPN was broken and almost torn apart. I am afraid it won't survive and I can't do anything because that branche is too fat...
I lose a quarter of my PPN wild queen.
That's the risk of growing outdoors when you deliver yourself to the wetter gods...
Have a great weekend all!
Today sun is shiing again.
Still didn't start to cut the Purple Princess.
I am still doubting when the weather is nice...
She smells so nice I hardly can't wait, but I am still prolonging the Purple Princess harvest a little.
What do you think guys?
Bummer about the PPN branch, I love the pic of it blowing in the wind w/ the dark clouds threatening...
Did you cut it off, or trying to rejoin it? I know this happened to you before, but I would stake and tie it together and cover w/ pruning seal.
I lost a branch to winds this yr. and it was even staked!
Must have REALLY been blowing to knock over the toilet! Could you save her and repot?
I was pretty sure she'd be purple, the Nepjam males used all had purple sacs.
Best wishes for the breeding project and a month of sun!
Yes, keep the PP going as long as the weather holds out, and the trichs aren't turning all amber.
I don't touch it at all, because it's too risky.
I will probably damage more then it will do good, because this branch was twisted already by the bending. The branch is too thick for pruning seal... it's almost as thick as my fist..
The pot is broken, but it stays in shape :>) The plant is fine. I just have to water a little more because of the broken bowl that's all.
It was windpower 8 on the scale of beaufort!!
Now I put her beside the Purple Peace pheno, so she can't blow over anymore.
Thanks for the best wishes High and tips my friend.
Very nice Bedoïn what a lovely plants and flowers.
They just caught a Hempfield a couple of days ago and started to destroy it.
It was a research field of the university!! Oooops. :>)
I proposed to have a havestparty at the fourth of october with full moon.
And guess what? I will!!
Kayaman, I wish you were here...!!
Most of the time I hear or see people when the harvest is done... :>)
Thanks Zielonylass, like your way of growing, repsect!.
The Purple Peace Nepalese keeps on surprising me.
I don't believe in miracles, but she is!!
What started out as a little poor plant became a real wild queen.
2 days ago one of the main branches was teared apart by the storm.
I left her like she was. She is still connected with 1/3 of the branch with the main stem, but the side branches of the branch and the flowers are stull fine and getting water through the part she is still connected to...
The buds started to make some nice resins..
The sun came out again and the forecast for coming week is sunny, 22 degrees and no rain... yippiiiiiiiiiiii!!
Have a nice day folks.
I had a good start of a new week.
