Boo’s Perpetual Grow Journal

[Carcass]

Nice!
Great bunch of autos, Boo- that should keep you busy for a season or four!

 

[InTheShed]

Those GK/PSMxGK both look amazing! You are doing MadDab proud. He posted one of his PSMxGK growing in AZ on the gram last week. :nicelydone:

And I like "Dave." You can always do your HAL impression when you say it! "I'm sorry Dave, I'm afraid I can't allow you to eat out of the garbage."

a few pics of the Purple Skunk Mass/Grape Krush and Grape Krush:

Beauties both!

This is PSM/GK. She’s a hardy plant that is just starting to flower….I need to start a little trimming on her soon.

This is Grape Krush. She’s a little bit messy. Some of her main fan leaves are so big they pull the branches down. She is also beginning to flower and needs a thoughtful trim.

I'm not sure what you had in mind but I wouldn't take a single fan leaf unless I was taking an entire branch!

Sauga thingy

Even SaugaThingy is better than FromTheTop!

Yeesss! Going to be a fruity fall/winter

Yeesss! Going to be a fruity fall/winter...@Heavenlyhybrid notice the Kush! (my queen)

Did you get all these goodies at the Dutch Passion Fruit sale?

 

[Heavenly Hybrid]

Yummy line up Boo! I was feeling like a bad friend for not sending you kush goodies yet; but then I saw carcass say they’re all autos, so I stopped! I have no kushy type autos to give.

Can’t wait to watch the next batch, when is drop day?

It looks delightfully delicious! Drop day won’t be for a little while…Ive got 5 photos outside that won’t be harvested for another 2 months, plus a granddaughter due in the next couple of weeks, so I’m planning to take a little break. Maybe Sept/Oct timeframe?

Thank you. I wasn’t sure how I was doing with those ladies. They are brutes!

Oof! I can’t believe what I’m reading! Shed telling me not to trim? Works for me! However, some of those gigantic fans have turned yellow and dropped…..

Did you get all these goodies at the Dutch Passion Fruit sale?

I had no clue there was a Dutch Passion Fruit sale! I got them from a man, a man who sells seeds…

If you go to the Sponsors Forum and add it to your watch list then you'll get all the notifications from the Sponsors on the deals they currently have. That's how I found out about the Dutch Passion Fruit sale.

That’s smart of you. I’m planning a small hiatus myself. Aug is usually the hottest month here and I’m already battling the heat, so.. plus I don’t know about you, but I’m a bit burnt out taking care of all these plants!

 

[BooWho2]

I’m a bit burnt out taking care of all these plants!

Me too!!!!

Could be hungry for nitrogen, could be doing what all plants do as they grow outside...shedding the old ones and growing new ones!

jfc I just figured out what 'the man who sells seeds' means.

Boo! Your plants look so good! Congrats on becoming a gran

Hi all! First, I wanted to say sorry to @Carcass for being a whiner in his journal last night. This mama is tired from caring for too many plants in the heat, and our little foster has been up overnight every 2 hours with tummy trouble since Friday night - due to the vaccinations he received earlier in the day. He has recovered and I actually slept in my own bed vice the couch last night. Whew!
I went ahead and pulled quotes over here to respond to Them. I hope that’s okay?

Does yours have balls? I think that only the versions with balls would benefit from grinding.

No, mine is the grey stuff but it’s got little white grains in it that don’t seem to dissolve.

I wondered that too, which is why I started mixing mine the night before, plus I mix enough for two feedings.

Thanks for that Big D! Right now I’m using over 12 gallons to water just the 5 biggies outside. I found two 5 gallon buckets without holes in them and will mix up 10 gallons this evening.

I pre-dissolve mine in a little pill bottle w/ warm water- shake the crap out of it for apx. 10 seconds, and it's all dissolved, then dump it into the watering jug...

I tried that a few times this morning. It does seem to mix better, but the little white things are still there. It’s not a huge deal, just don’t like seeing it in the watering can.

Do you have a hose you can fill up your rain barrel with?

I hooked two together and filled her up halfway! So much easier and closer watering from the barrel.

Omg.. That was just so, so funny! Still is! Thanks for the laugh @InTheShed

You don't have your plants near a water source?

I do have a water source right next to the playhouse. It’s a very large rain barrel that collects the rain from the roof. Problem is, it’s been so dry here for the past month or two that it is empty, which is why I’ve been schlepping water.

I ask for help when I need it but I have to be really desperate

Ditto that!

You can whine in my journal any time, Boo!
I just wish I had a few more suggestions for you, but when it involves moving water around, there's just no easy way- that shit is heavy...

I tried that a few times this morning. It does seem to mix better, but the little white things are still there. It’s not a huge deal, just don’t like seeing it in the watering can.

If I let the gray stuff sit in the pill bottle after dissolving, I'll see a little tiny bit of residue settled at the bottom- but it's hardly any compared to the brown version of mc...

 

[InTheShed]

It's so weird because my v2 never had any trouble dissolving - balls and all - even in water out of the hose in December (in Los Angeles, but still on the chilly side!).

 

[Virgin Ground]

I have the newest version afaik. I mix mine up and let it sit overnight,give a good few shakes in the morning for good measure.
By morning it is completely dissolved.

My old version would separate into a darned sandbar at the bottom of the pail.

 

[BooWho2]

Blow Dream fauxto is a beast. She hardened off quickly and spent to myday in the sunniest part of the yard. I can imagine how big she would be had she been out there longer. Honestly, I'm glad she's a little smaller than the other beasts.

Check out her 11 fingered fan leaves. Yowza she's beautiful!

 

[Virgin Ground]

Stunning while sunning!

 

[InTheShed]

Any signs of flowers yet?

 

[BooWho2]

Any signs of flowers yet?

She's starting to show a little female now. I wouldn't call it flower, but she's showing her intentions. Today is the first day that she was in full sun all day. She loved it!

So...an an auto?
