DV8 Reg Photo Grow For Science

Nothing wrong with your eyes mate, that one was always different to the others, thinner leaves, early bolter, thought it might be male myself.

With 7 regs theres bound to be one. Its definitely a different pheno, so on the same page with you mate.
Kool. It seems different for sure at first glance. Idk. Maybe. Maybe not. Another week and you be able to tell.
 
So lets count the good news off today.

Got keys to start working on my house.
GG4 looks like she has second set of true seed leaves.
Got The NL and AH autos in seed raising mix.

Bad news. Super has Da Virus, thus giving him more excuses to be a sh!t C♡nt.
The heat is insane today, spent it swimming standing up. And we arent done yet with 2 more days of 39C.
The Reg that tailed seems to have decided not to greet us all, at least yet.

Good growings and Hooroo.
Hope your Valentines is a ripper.
 
I do love telling the story especially when you hit the high notes to the prudish and high minded.


"So after years of successive breeding I finally had a cock worthy of putting it in the show exhibition. The competition was tight, very tight in fact.
Old Bill had a very handsome cock, hed been preening it all morning and it had come up a treat.
But I knew today was the day, when the 2 cocks were shown together I had the slightly larger more symmetrical of the two.
The judges came around inspecting the 2 cocks from every angle, to see which cock had the best proportions.
Bill look smug with his offering as his cock had been chosen before.

But that was not his day, in the end despite my cock being a bit younger they awarded me the ribbon after much deliberation. It was very close coming down to the colouring and markings to seal the deal on top of the slighter bigger width of the body.

Along those lines any way.

Onto canna news another tail tonight. Im pretty sure they are the two autos, with the NL coming to the party.

Saw the kids this arvo, pics soon.
D Y I N G !

OMG, Deeve is this a true story or are you joking? Either way too. fucking. funny!
 
Top of the morning to you @7Dust2 . Can I call you Dusty, or Dust, what you prefer to be called mate? Its evening here, but all that means is it coffee time for both of us.

On with the pics. Not sure whos who in the Zoo anymore exactly but here they are. Look like they are ok with the new home.

Sorry about the funky pictures chopping details out of frame.

Was quick snaps. 1st pic is two kids in line. Moony at rear, pity didnt get a single shot with something for scale.

Moony had gone mad though throwing out growth everywhere and already hitting the bottom of the pot, who knows how hard it would go with enough space.

Still no sex, just the odd (maybe if I stare long enough) tiny side shoot growth but nothing obvious.

Might still get some size yet. Moony would be the pick for genetics, going alpha on the others.

Hooroo .
It really is cray cray how quick they grow.

I’m saying 3 girls. They really do look so healthy.

Why don’t you get spider mites?
 
Why don’t you get spider mites?
I can only guess. My garden and outdoor area is a real oasis of life, I try to let anything predatory or easy food get comfy and watch nature do its work.

Whenever something unwanted comes along I try to eradicate it immediately.

Its kind of a wild mess but it works.

Look tbh me too. The only thing I need to spray is my plants. I don’t even kill the grasshoppers. I just flick em off. I like my insects. I have a cobweb that looks like a a high rise block of units. It has around 10 different spiders in it. It is amazing! I’ll get some video this week.

I just have such bad luck with spider mites. I think it’s the cloning of affected plants. They start with nits.
 
Look Im a hippie with a bit of exposure to permaculture. Ive always exploited The Edge. Basically the more zones you create the more diverse your biology.

So in terms of plants I grow natives to big high habitat trees. Succulents to ferns.

I have borders in my garden but not defined spaces. The rosemarry, sea daises, lavender etc just grows past the bed soils and low to the path. My path is full of weeds, my lawns full of thistles and dandelions, the mint creeps through the canopies of the flowering shrubs, wattles protect the east side from frost underneath.

But in the chaos theres tiny microclimates, wet to dry, low to high, complete shade and complete sun.

So things thrive in the niche, and the predatory types move in. Sparrows and wrens from above, spiders on the mid levels, and ants in the dirt.

If its not in the house its in its place. Modern gardens arent like mine, they are manicured, and ordered, the cockroaches and ants are sprayed regularly, dandelions poisoned or removed, mono type grass cut into defined shapes and at ground level, flowers in the beds, not on the pavers.

But the cockchaffers and cockatoos destroy those lawns, the ants come inside, and the powdery mildew breaks out on the roses. The catapillers destroy the rows of dahlias. Doesnt happen in my garden, but people think Im the idiot or uncultured.

But the Wrens are here because of me, not the Indian Minors theyve adopted.
My Tomatoes are legendary while theirs wilt. My bulbs and alyssium come back every year while they go to Bunnings to buy better ones this time around. The dragonflys land in my yard, while the mosquitos suck on them. My spiders dine, live and tame while their houses are infested by intruders and the pest bloke is called out again.

I dont entertain people, I just get to roam and watch.

I put lavender oil in my humidifier to keep bugs away. Especially ones I get here. Dam stink bugs. They everywhere here. Can't kill them they just bring more . So have to do something like that here. Find what they hate plant it near or something. They stay away for sure.. what I do
 
Righto seedling update.

GG4 -A
20220215_060858.jpg

Oof horrible pic, but the new leaves are evident.

NL -A pushing up through the media this morning. Was a banging big seed so no surprise. Will get a pic when she breaches tonight.

AH -A, no sign of her but today might be her day.

Reg 1 & 2, might both be DoA. Might be for the best. Would be harder to juggle photos.

While I don’t think of myself as a hippy, I do love nature. The lengths I go to when it come to saving lone insects or animals. This story is one of my favourites.


And this happened too!


I have another butterfly saving story which is so funny. Me trying to get like art pics, butterfly refusing to play the game. I just can’t find it.

I am know as Trala Mother of Green Dragons, rescuer of bees, saviour of butterflies, liberator of lizards, rebirther of beetles.

I have borders in my garden but not defined spaces. The rosemarry, sea daises, lavender etc just grows past the bed soils and low to the path. My path is full of weeds, my lawns full of thistles and dandelions, the mint creeps through the canopies of the flowering shrubs, wattles protect the east side from frost underneath.

But in the chaos theres tiny microclimates, wet to dry, low to high, complete shade and complete sun.
I like order but not control if that makes sense. While a few of my neighbours have traditional Lilly Pilly, I like mine wild and untamed, path no weeds, lawns weeds that are pretty. No bindieyes. My basil runs free, and my mint is contained in two of my raisins rain boots.
So things thrive in the niche, and the predatory types move in. Sparrows and wrens from above, spiders on the mid levels, and ants in the dirt.
It sounds lovely. My garden is bursting with bees, I have snakes, spiders and possums. And my birds can often been seen dipping into my pool to cool themselves in summer. Every day my pool is full of leaves. Every. Single. Day lollll
If its not in the house its in its place. Modern gardens arent like mine, they are manicured, and ordered, the cockroaches and ants are sprayed regularly, dandelions poisoned or removed, mono type grass cut into defined shapes and at ground level, flowers in the beds, not on the pavers.
My garden isn’t modern or manicured but it’s kept. I love pottering around out there. Most of my plants have been struck with cuttings. I love the process of taking a piece of a plant and watching it grow. While I don’t spray as such (outside my MJ grow areas) I don’t like those ant mounds that look like globs of poo.

Deeve you really do have a lovely way of talking. I swear I could see your garden just from your description :)

Bloke that is one fucking ugly beautiful little baby girl you have there.

I’m sure your nursery will be filled with screaming seedings in no time.

Man, I spat my coffee out when I saw this!

Lmfao.

GG4-A will be known as Sloth from here on out, straight from the classic Goonies.

You tripper, had me dying of laughter.

I lolled making it for you tbh!

My goal today is to get you some video. I want to show you my spider web.

^^ just so we’re clear, that’s not a euphemism either…

Hoo roo.
 
NL came through, helmet head, looked like a german soldier with a big head and all round helmet. Gently gently persuaded it 3/4 of the way off, should cast it aside no problem from here out.

Looks healthy asf. Ive had a go at NL before, just not in Auto, will be very interesting to see how it develops.

Still no AH, hoping by tomorrow or good chance I cooked her in the medium. Topping out at over 38C today.

Hard to keep a handle on the weather patterns, will get cooler Thursday, and go back to 11/12C overnights again.

All the kids, small or other, will need to be tough to get through, old mother nature is throwing all sorts at them this week.

Did I say I need a tent?.....

Pics tonight when its lesser risk of skin cancer, apparently we f@rked the ozone layer a while back, and I dont really like the scapel too much, well used on me I should say.
 
Ok so had a panic moment and went to check Big kids. No sex, chucked in some ammendments, took some half way decent pics. They looked fine despite what I thought may have happened.

Here Tis.

Moony is the 4th pic really should have given it a bigger pot....

Hard to say if theyve hit the stretch, be amazed if they hadnt. Still not quite at the even 13/11, so maybe theres time.

Be impressive if it was the case. Never had no pisitils at Valentines, but my other runs have started in Sept so maybe its down to that.

Cannot keep the ties on them, will need upgrades if they need further shaping. They arent bad, but not great either.

Little kids pics in morning.

Hooroo.
