Hey beez wanted to show you and update on the EM clones!
They have all really begun to stretch and grow again! We’re on the right track!

Those clones look a lot different then the re-vegged Blueberry I grew. It went about 20 days putting out nothing but single leaves. I think it was close to a month before it started to grow "normally" again. It's flowering now and is nowhere near as large as its mom was.
 
The craft show turned out to be quite fun. I met some interesting characters. I met two gals there selling hemp oil (sort of like selling Avon or Tupperware) for the company that they work for full-time. They had DVDs, pamphlets, flyers the whole shabang. They got a chuckle when I told them that what they offer is like decaf coffee and that the oil I use is like full strength coffee.

The craft show was put on by a local dog rescue group. You get a 10' x 10' spot in which to set up and sell your items. At the end of the day you give them 10% of what you made. It is a worthwhile charity to which Lisa and I donate money and a little time to each year. Everything we sell is handmade and costs us relatively little for the materials. So the profit margin for us is really good. I actually sold quite a few pair of the earrings I make........one pair I sold to a woman about 65 who said she loved them!!
 
How’s the QPa doing? Any further signs of male parts yet

I'm still applying the CS in the morning and again at night. Still not seeing any boy parts that are real obvious so I keep brushing it on twice a day till I either have success or do it for 30 days at which time I'll consider giving up on this particular plant. But I would prefer to remain confident that boy parts will show themselves eventually. If it every stops raining here I'll try to get a couple photos of the QPA. She has started flowering now.
 
My sister had a booth at a craft mall for years selling candles lol

I make earrings, necklaces, rings, cufflinks and tie tacks all out of used bullet shell casings and used shotgun hulls. They're popular wherever I sell them.
 
So I had mentioned last week that I wanted to play around a little with some 2 liter bottle plants. Basically single colas with the venial branches left in place. I looked at either starting from seed or from clones. Well I opted to go with seeds just to get this show on the road. Then I had to pick which seeds to grow. And I decided to go with the Sensi Northern Lights X Dark Devil auto seeds I made this past summer. I have 3 hempy solo cups in which I germinate seeds with great success I might add. Because I want all the plants to be the same age I put four seeds into each of the three solo hempy cups for a total of 12 seeds. I did this in case a seed or three didn't germinate I would still have 9 plants. Well I put them in the hempy solo cups Thursday afternoon late. I got home from the craft show today to find this. Not sure the picture will be big enough to see but here's hoping.
In case you can't the seeds all germinated so now I get to wait a day or two and cull out the three weakest looking seedlings. I continue to be amazed at how well plants germinate in the hempy.
 
Today was a piece of cake. It was a small venue with small crowds of people milling about. What gets to me is the noise............the combined murmuring of the people, cries of little ones, it just puts me really on edge. Today though wasn't all too terrible.

That’s awesome!! Congrats on the successful day...including all those new seedlings!! Holy smokes!

Ok Beez and friends I need to be talked of the edge. I was coming up with new feeding schedules and so I reviewed all of the expected harvest dates...all 7-11 weeks good good. The DDA says 8.5 weeks or 63 days max from seed to harvest. What is your experience? Should I start the 3 day flush at day 59? I checked the trichs this morning and she is clear to cloudy 40:60. She is still so white and frosty so my gut says 2 more weeks but I am not familiar with this strain. It’s a Sativa so maybe I chop with clear to cloudy in mind? Help

This was 2 days ago and I included the quarter pounder (Canuk says 80 days for her)

Newty...........the more experienced growers of the DDA run them 100 days (give or take) from seed. I have one now that has just started flowering. I expect I will run it for 10-11 weeks from seed.

The QPA I grew to the best of my recollection went almost 3 weeks beyond what the breeder said it should run. And that was looking for milky trichs. Both strains run long.
