DV8's Deviance

[DV8]

Back when I tried to use tweezers with the seeds, i squeezed one too hard and it popped out, hit me in the eye, and hit the floor. It took me about 15 minutes to find the little guy, too.

This did make me chuckle. I admit in my head it plays out super comedic, and probably not all like the reality.

So far it seems everyone had a successful recovery.

Damn, Deeve- those ladies are looking swweeet!

Not a bad run mate, thanks for the encouragement!

I rescued my Amnesia Haze seed from the sink drain..had to take the "p"trap off to get it out, but I got it..

Now,if I mess with seeds over the sink, I put the plug in first..

lesson learned:

the hard way:

Haha, I remember you telling this story, perhaps its was only a recounting of the tale. Thanks for the giggle.

Ok, seeds came out of their swim.

Now we wait. Well mostly me.

Gave all the big veggers and flower girls another feed. Pushed it a bit harder, everyone but the Runtz Muffin and PZ looks like they could do with a bit of extra nutrition.

Quick snaps from this Morning for the peeps like Tra who just skim till theres a visual.

 

[DV8]

No sign of seeds. No surprise there.

Checked over the auto.....shes inching closer. Got the early swell on most of her main colas.

This is a challenge I face every plant. Do I go a bit early knowing it will be ok, or wait out the time till its super obvious they are done and in their prime harvest moment.

Two girls will go shortly, just need to decide whos going to be adopted. Had hoped the Blueberry clone was going to be a bit more advanced to consider her as an option.

Struggling with handing a Barneys girl off and keeping a Blueberry that Im already on in flower again on, and would be third go. One redemption feels like enough.

See what happens.

Grow wise just did the tidy of all my lowers, suppercropped Miss Muffin, released ties on Peyote Zkittlez, and put WZ & RLC under more ties for final shaping.

Watermelon Zkittlez Day 35 Veg.

Runtz X Layer Cake Day 35

Revegging Watermelon Zkittlez

WZ look tired, ragged, and suffering too many nutes and cold, but she is pushing new growth, couple weeks and she will turn a corner.

Been a real eye opener doing a reveg.

Clones.

Runtz Muffins

Watermelon Zkittlez (II)

Shes been the strongest of the 3. For sure the one Im looking forward to growing the most.

Blueberry

She really needs some extra heat & light, kinda flailing in a way her mother/s didnt.

 

[Stunger]

Looking good Deeve, you're going get some jar filling times from those!

Cheers mate, I think we all have the same dream.



Veg girls are shipping out today. Case of greater need and having the balance of numbers come to a manageable level.

A bit of a lull in proceedings wont be unwelcome on my behalf.

Tucked them in to their new home with some sadness.

Came home to this

Thats a tiny Wedding Cake, been on the wish list for the longest time.

If she can get herself up and legs under her then for sure she will be loved to death.

 

[DV8]

Feels so empty!

Purple Punch arriving into the above ground world.

Joining her tent sister Wedding Cake

 

[DV8]

The WZ continues to give me hope of some daughters. Shes all sorts of screwed up.

Clone girls chillin

New baby in the birth canal.

Blueberry giving me a smile. So thick and sticky. Not tall, but many.

Miss Muffin loving life

The Auto got a supercrop....anything to attempt shaving some days....Shes close but not hurrying.

Went a wee bit hard though. Some early testers haha.

Blueberry clone, just let her ties go, see if she wants to get bushy before strapping her down again.

And thats a wrap.

 

[DV8]

Bit closer to home today so had some time to hang out with the girls.

Honestly they just dont get the time they need or deserve, everything is crash, bash, rush rush unless its the weekend.

The 3rd of 4 new seedlings made the choice to join her tent sisters above ground, a White Widow. Hope this one is a banger. Previous one was ok, but no star.

Look it probably doesnt matter, the 2 Barneys girls got up so this one and the Bubbas Gift are just a bonus.

Funnily enough Stunger was showing off his purple wares over at the Balcony, and my Blueberry girl must have heard the discussion.

She has a few like this above, ho hum greens but more of these in below pic. Who doesnt love a purple hue?

The colours look a lot better in real life & in natural light, was a bit late to get a pic while I had her propped up doing a supercrop and stripping some lowers.


Tra a year ago: Just pull leaves off. Its fine.

Me a year ago: WTF? LEAVE ALL LEAVES

Me now after spidermites and going full tent happy: Wax time ladies!

The toughest part is what to do with them all....

 

[Trala]

Yeah this anti leaf snip phobia I see makes no sense. It doesn’t apply to any other plant so why would canna be different?

It comes back to trying to reinvent an already working wheel. I had a poster message me not long after I first joined saying he was concerned about the water drops on my canna leaves, because water on leaves under a light burns like acid. Made sense coz if we have a midday summer rain shower, all of the plants in my yard self combust when the hot Queensland sun re-emerges!

Oh I hear you.

I basically employ a bloke full time to reseed my lawns when they burst into flames.

I do try my best using a squeegee every morning on the dew, but sometimes I sleep in.

Righto so .....The Queen is dead. Not the English one, that was months ago. The Old
' Im going forever you just watch me' Critical Kush Auto Queen.

I gave up waiting. At day 100 I was showing patience. Today I looked at her, looked at the trim scissors ,and looked at her.

That emboldened feeling of ' Fuck it' crept over me.

No lies, it was a bloody marathon. Even that first pic only shows all the significant buds, the larf and fluff was just murder.

Wet she came out 570 G. I use those weights to give me an idea of dry weight once dried and cured.

I get about 22-26% or 22-26G per 100G wet.

So 4.5, maybe she goes 5 Oz.

What swell she had was not impressive. She just stayed cloudy for last 2 weeks.

Being an auto I think might have made her less predictable. Obviously my biggest one so far.

Now I mention doing another auto, slap me hard haha. Even her turnout cant make up for the marathon.

The 4th girl, Bubbas Gift came today

Theres a bit going on in the veg tent.

Time for some uppots tonight.

TBH losing my enthusiasm, its definitely waned. Had hoped the planting of a couple more might give me a push.

Might put a couple through a quick flower, with smaller veg times.

TBH losing my enthusiasm, its definitely waned. Had hoped the planting of a couple more might give me a push.

DV8: I’m losing enthusiasm for growing. It’s definitely waned.
Also DV8: I’m going to plant more of the things I’m losing enthusiasm for to fix my wane.

That makes as much sense as carefully and methodically preparing a shit sandwich, then complaining after every bite that it tastes like shit!

Not that this is about me while making it all about me, my grow brings me so much joy. Every day. Even when it gets driven in a ditch. If it didn’t, I’d stop.

My advice, not that you asked:- try taking a break lolling!

On the flip side, those buds are pictured beautifully.

Theres probably some logic there.

I can tell!

The train has already left the station......

On the flip side, those buds are pictured beautifully.

Thanks Tra!

Look Im not going to get melodramatic. Part of me would just like to sit and enjoy others beautiful handiwork and wait until I fell in love with the idea of growing again.

Its felt a bit mechanical of late. Today though I decided to put on The Doors and listening to old Jim belt out the lines ' Mr Mojo Risin' have given me my groove back.

 

[DV8]

Heres the veg girls/ seedling all sorted.

I topped the Blueberry. Everyone got Great White Mycos except the reveg.

Figured out my rough perpetual times, not sure where the reveg WZ cloning will fit in, but I guess it will sort itself out.
