Picking seeds out of the summers crop. The Girl Scout Cookies is a lot stickier than the Kaboom.

I had a male Maui in the mix. So now I have Maui X CBD Dutch Treat, Maui X GSC, Maui X Kaboom and Maui X Hash Plant.

The 4 MD's (Maui X Dutch) I am growing look promising.

FP. :peace:

Hi FP, funny how in the 70's most of what I could find looked like your pic and It was horrible. I look at your pic today and I'm jelly! Go figure.
 
Some organic ideas from my last journal

Bug spray:

‘Muerte Caliente’
2-3 Garlic Cloves
6 large or 12 Small Hot Chili Peppers (or 1-2 Tbs hot chili powder)
1 Tbs Vegetable Oil
1 Tsp Natural Liquid Detergent or Soap
4 cups Water

Ingredients in the blender.
Strain the mixture through a cloth
dilute 1:1 with water
Store in spray bottle in fridge for 6 months,,,


And bud food:
And I just finished making molasses out of banana peels.

1. cut to small pieces
2. Dry in Sun / cover with paper for flies until all are almost black( you can dry on low settings in oven too)
3. I fry them to make them black and dry
4. Cool of ( place on paper for a day if you feel moist)
5. Blender to make small pieces.

What is this good for?? you might ask yourselves...well...:

This is what banana peel gives to your plants:

Potassium – helps promote general plant vigor; helps build up resistance to pest and disease; necessary in fruit development; is involved in regulating around 50 enzymes in a plant and relates to the oprightness of stems and the thickness of cell walls i.e. plant strength!
This is extremely important for plants like stag-horns which literally hang onto tree trunks in nature and vertical veggies like shallots, leeks and fruiting crops. 42% when dried

Phosphorus – strongly influences fruiting and flowering; is essential for good root and shoot growth; pollination; and is very important in seed germination and viability.

Calcium – the most important mineral in the soil and known as the ‘Trucker of all minerals;’ is the ‘ingredient’ of cell walls concerned with root development and growing stem points and helps ‘open up’ soil to allow more oxygen.
Manganese
Sodium
Magnesium
Sulfur



Don't forget..Aphids HATE bananas!!

And banana juice:
Here is how :

How do you ferment banana peels?
Put your peels in a mason jar, and cover with enough water so they’re submerged. You’ll want to put some sort of weight on the peels so they remain under the water.
Cover with cloth and rubber band or a loosely fitting top.
Let the mixture sit for a week while the good bacteria does its job and unlocks the nutrients in the peel.
If you see a cloudy must, that’s ok. If you start to see black mold, you’ll have to throw it away and start again.
As long as the peels are below the surface of the water, you’re probably okay. Let your nose and your judgement be your guide.
After a week, put the peels in a blender and puree (save the water for other plants).
Side dress your blossoming plants with the puree, being sure to incorporate it into the soil gently so it doesn’t attract unwanted critters like squirrels and raccoons (for outside grows:
(If they’re a particular concern, dilute the puree in water to help it distribute into the ground better.)
 
Im in for this one. :) Glad you and yours got out and are flying free!

Peace :)
