ICMag with help from Landrace Warden and The Vault is running a NEW contest in November! You can check it here.
Prizes are seeds & forum premium access. Come join in!
That +-0c is hitting us in a day or so, already getting warmer, gotta love the sun after all this darkness, now we have daylight from around 7:30 in the morning to around 17:30, gotta love it!
Yes, that's Bubblegum bud. Extreme rates, like the NLX bubble.
It was a "high fair"...lol
Medjool, don't worry about the Happy Brother, it was nice and lucky that I came across that strain.
Whazzup it was nice to see you again also your girlfriend and Feelin Irie offcourse.... send them my love.
Overhere the sun is shining and it's around 10 degrees.
It was the warmest winter ever here in the Netherlands.
Last week the first seedling came up spontaneously at the Canna Embassy terrace.
If this little sprout survives it will be a strong one, but probably it will be a male, because the most seeds come out male if they sprouted under cold circumstances.
The best temperature to sprout a seed is at 23 degrees (c).
Some more pics from the fair last week...
At the last picture the Purple Princess that Canna is testing right now.
As soon I have the results I let you guys know.
It was fun meeting you again G.A.
I told you i wasn't growing at the moment and stuff. The day at the fair made my hands itch so i am going to start doing somthing again. I was to late to take part in the highlife cup but next year i will enter the Happy Brother under the bio coffeeshop part of the contest. I am going to start with a litle indoor grow to see what the genetics look like again from the strains i still keep at a friends house. I will be growing just a few plant for fun again. Going to grow from seeds: Lemon (won a 1 price higlife cup 2007),HDF, Bublegum and from clone off my previus selected moms: Happy Brother, MKultra, Sweetooth #4. I still need to wait 3 weeks before i can start but i will make a grow dairy here on icmag.
P.S. The Happy Brother from The Oregon Brothers Is it the same as mine ? I got this plant maybe 10 years ago and it was as a clone. I have never found out al the info i would like about it. It was given to me by a persen claiming he made it for his brother ( that is in a wielchair). I would realy like all the info on it and see if this is the same strain. Do they have a website ?
Good to see you guys.
Sun is shining overhere right now...
It's 10 degrees and the one little sprout that came out spontaneously is going strong.
2 more weeks and I start to sprout again...
Karma I don't know where to get that info on the Happy Brother.
Maybe someone else knows...
Like your attitude towards the research on strains...
I realy enjoyed the fair and I am looking forward to a new season...
Catch you all later folks.
Hi G.A.
Doing my math, you'll be wetting your seeds the same day as me, the 19th.
That's the new moon of course :wink:
Hoping they break surface the 21st, 1st day of spring!
In the meantime, how about a shot of that tough little sprout?!?
Today spring is realy in the air.
Sun is shining and it's 16 degrees!!
Yip, the 19th it will be, except for the spontaneously sprouted one.
She is enjoying the sun today at the terrace.
If she/he survives it will be one to cross with.
Soon also the Karavaan will be opening again at the beach.
Man, I've been waiting for this.... sigh....
Catch you all later...
Hello G.A. my friend, apologies for not communicating in your wonderful thread here for quite a while, maybe now I'm finally getting out of my internet hiatus? Been lurking long enough. Maybe the expectance of spring coming soon is driving me out of my bear-hole?
Anyway, congratulations on a new growing season to you and all the beautiful people here!!! You're keeping it green, infallible force of green...
I used to hang out a lot at the Noorderstrand for surfing. I'll definately drop by sometime @ Karavaan this summer, even though I recently moved away quite far from Scheveningen for a job. On the lookout for a new car now, one with enough space inside for a longboard to fit in. Scheveningen, I'll be back!
Smoking will be prohibited soon in all public restaurants and pubs in the Netherlands, but today the Dutch governement decided that this prohibition doesn't go for the coffeeshops!!
So soon not only smokers of the sweet herb will be customers of the coffeeshops, but also pipe and cigar smokers... lol
Some politicians want the shops only to sell Cannabis and hasj, but other political parties are afraid that that will be the end of the Dutch coffeeshop culture!
A lot is moving again at the moment...
New governement new changes. I hope for the better.
Keep on growing folks, take care and stay safe, wherever you are...
For the Dutch. Tomorrow, friday, between 11 pm and 1 am live on air at Fresh FM (Club Fresh with Gijs Alkemade) interviews with the Hague Sjonnie and Green Ambassador in between the great music at this station.
If you like to listen live you can listen at www.fresh.fm
We will ask some questions and listeners can win some seeds.....
Just on time, because mpnday the 19th it's new moon overhere and time to sprout.
Next week Canna will deliver the Canna Bio line and soil for the coming season. I will keep you guys updated as much as possible.
Next week the days will be longer again, because we'll have summer time again.
I wish everybody a great new growing season, peace of mind and a great summer!
