Update: State of the Garden
We’re coming up to 2 months since kick-off and, perfectly true to plan,
Early Miss is 50 days from sprout and nearly done making me some fat little buds!
I think I stunted the stretch by changing lights on it halfway into that process. The main cola just stopped at that point and started getting fatter sideways! It smells very fruity, some pineapple and sweetness along with the ‘just smells like weed’ element. All the nugs are really chunky!
The top is ripening beautifully

DDA is just beautiful to me right now, even if i do say so myself
I’ve never grown one that expressed this well and I adore it when plants take this kind of shape with a large central cola
. There is still only hints of pink amongst the buds. The last drench it had was a 1/4 Transwater yesterday and before that it had a Growth Ionic (with a touch of TP in it) drench and a Brix foliar in between.
I think the next watering is a perfect time to hit it with the Cationic Drenches
2 in a row, with no water in-between. I’m super keen to see how it goes!

Finally,
Sour Bubba had a trip outside for a Leafwash yesterday in preparation for transplant and flip with the new moon on Monday. I didn’t shake the LW solution well enough during spraying I don’t think. The residue seems a bit spotty - never mind
It was fun having it out under the sun for a minute!
I’ve let it get fairly big while waiting for the new moon to transplant it. This last week it has really taken off and I think it looks superbly ready to explode with 4 huge flower-stacked colas.

It will get a major clean-up prune before transplant and flip.
So here’s the family, snapped about 90 minutes ago - Northern Lights (right) continues to build upon it’s newfound perkiness. Panama is hidden in there somewhere! More on that one next time.
So I’m feeling pretty good about where the plants are at and the things I’m discovering and learning this round. One of those things is how much I’m looking forward to having 2 dedicated spaces. “Plant Tetris” for veg and flower in the same small space is a perpetually changing thing... always tweaking... too much work! I’ll get there. Things are moving for those build projects. It wont be quick but it is happening!
I took a trip out this week for an appointment and took some quick snaps out of the car window of regenerating eucalyptus forests nearby - 4-5 months on from the fires. Little furry bears everywhere. They sprout new growth all over themselves to get as much light as possible. A truly amazing process.
I have 2 spiders living in my bedside lamp. They are very small, 5-8mm long. I keep asking them if they’d like to move to the tent, but as yet O cant get them interested. I am contemplating forced relocations ... Meanwhile - this one is pretty darned good looking, even while eating!
I particularly like it’s visual illusion from above (the Saugaview® of a spider!?). It looks like the famous painting ‘The Scream Of Nature’ but with arms waving above it‘s head.
It’s either escaping a monster or trying to tell me that there’s a dirty spot on my lampshade
